I would like to support this but i've some questions left

Hey community :smile:

I really like what i see here and i’d like to buy it but i first like to have some answers to a few questions :slight_smile:

In beta stage they wrote it will be “like” Steam Early Access. What does this “like” actually means?

What’s about the duration a player will need to play trough ACT 1 (aprox)?

Greeting Apop

Hi Apop85 nice to have you here.

Someone “like” Steam Early Access mean, we haven´t spoke with Steam about it yet. Its a plan, an idea, but it is not fix. So if we have to change plan, there is a “like” Steam… we don´t know yet.

ACT1 will have around 30-40 hours of story driven gameplay, you can add some crafting or exploring here.

Hello!
Also looking at possibly (meaning, as soon as I get home from work) signing up for this - but I also have a few questions.

-Of the “30-40 hours story-driven playtime”, how much is currently playable?

-How developed is the armour/arms tree? Is it just a small, very limited selection for now?

-How big is the currently accessible world, vs how much will be accessible on release? (not sure if this is known by the community or not)

-Hunting is NOT currently in the game, correct? Which would be too bad, because nothing excites me more than hunting in those beautiful forests. Poaching laws be damned!!

-The much-advertised, authentic soundtrack is NOT currently implemented, correct?

-How often are updates rolled out?

Thanks for your answers, and patience if these have already been answered! I have read the forms fairly extensively, but I’m sure some (if not all) of these have already been touched on and I missed them.

Hi there :slight_smile:

Its difficult to tell hoy many hours of gameplay are possible, some users have 300+ hours in the alpha game, but to be honest, these are fanatics.
At the moment there should be quests for like 1-4 hours of gameplay, compared of how you play this game. But remember, its an early alpha, and sadly there are some bugs with some quests by now if they are played in a specific order.
But there will be a new update very soon which will expand gameplay. We do not know content of new update yet.

Armour/arms tree is very limited by now. There are a couple of different armours, but most of them is used by enemy troops. So if you kill the two men, you will have the armour, but you will not need it anymore.
Besides of the enemy cuman armour, there are three different kinds of armour. Gambeson, brigandine and full plate armour in the game. Gambeson can be combined with the other armours as well as mail armour from your enemies.
Arms is much more limited by now, only two handed sword and a longbow.
You can buy the longbow, but you have to win armour and a sword in arena training fight, or you have to kill enemy troops with nothing but a bow. Maybe this will change with new update, but we don´t know by now.

The world by now… hmm… difficult, two villages and an army camp with some sort of surroundings. Maybe around 5-10% of the final map. The final map will be about 16km².

Sorry, hunting is not part of the alpha gameplay yet.

Updates are here every 2-3 month, the next one should be here very soon.

And don´t be shy to ask whatever you want, you are welcome. :smiley:

Edit: As i see now the Pledge isn’t activated in here… maybe that’s why i cant find it now…

Actually in the latest interview Vávra said that Act 1 alone will be at least 50 hours of gameplay.
