Sharing the level of progress in development

[andrewz]

I think it would be fine if you at Warhorse could publicly share the information of development progress. I believe that gamers are interested in what parts of the game are already done (in theory - I guess nothing is finished at the moment), which parts are “work in progress” (and at what stage) and which parts remain undeveloped. It could prevent situations like when some fan complains about certain aspects of the game he sees in videos and you have to reply that this aspect of the game is in early stage of development. It could also move the feedback into the right direction (you get critics of undeveloped parts instead of those already finished).

Example:
Campaign: 25 %
Combat system: 65 %
Map of the world: 55 %
Character design: 70 %

I dont know if Numbers would reflect the development progress, but I generally agree, regular updates on the development would go a long way.

We definitelly plan to do regular updates on our progress. Not as often as during our KS campaign, but once in a month or so. We will of course keep blogging as well.

I agree. It’s quite difficult to pin something like this down to a specific number, and even if the team can do it, the numbers may probably end up being misleading anyway. Just keep the video updates incoming and release the modular tests - that’s already way more than what we get with the usual studio productions.
