Standalone questions .....

[Cvm 13]

I played this for awhile, but I have had many medical issue over the past few months i.e. double lung transplant. That being said I have not played recently nor have I kept up on the updates/news for the standalone. I have tried to watch some of the dev blogs (I just saw the march 8th one) but there are still some questions I have. I have tried searching but i have not found answers to these.

If someone could either provide an answer or just post links to the thread, I'd appreciate it.

Here are a few questions I have:

1- Last i heard the release date for the SA was around June/July. IS this correct?

2- Has any price been discussed?

3- Is the SA going to be as unforgiving and brutal as the Mod? i.e. lose everything when you die, starting with almost nothing, spawning in random places etc

1. The release is completely unknown. We don't even know if it's coming this year, actually.

2. The price, for the initial alpha release, is going to be around $24. The price will increase in the later versions, so get it early if you want it cheap.

3. Yes

1. its estimates 1st quarter, but who knows, they are going to take there time to make the best game possible.

2. they said the pricing would be almost equal to hte minecraft style pricing, starting at 15 dollars and increasing in price until the full games been polished

Good to know that it is staying with the hardcore aspect. That is key in making the game unique.

The price is actually going to start at around $24.

I've seen a few posts worrying that the devs are making it more "gamey" or easier but from everything I've heard from the devs (and a bit of testing) that couldn't be further from the truth. It's going to have a lot more depth and a lot more to keep people interested long-term. If anything it's going to be more brutal with so much more to think about (complex disease system ect).

Welcome back BTW ;)

Release date? I keep hearing 'April', but there's nothing to back that up.

Price? Idk.

Hardcore? Absolutely. :D
