How is the full version of Strategic Mind: The Pacific planned to differ from the EA version?
We want to keep you informed about how our work progresses. So, here is the table representing the comparison of our expectations for the Early access version (at launch, April 30) and the Full release version of the game.
Let us go over the main points and provide you with more detail.
As many of you could have guessed, cutscenes require lots of effort. We have already done the script and other preliminary work, however, there are still much to do in this regard. So we do not expect them to be ready before the full release.
The similar situation exists regarding the voice acting. We have to finalise all the lines before making and implementing voice acting.
All units and rewards for Early access are already in the game. As well as most of the skills.
HQ skills, equipment and icons are work in progress.
Core mechanics are ready, but require additional testing and polishing both before and after the beginning of Early access stage.
Day/night and rain features are now being tested.
We plan to add heroes after the beginning of Early access as the work progresses and we deal with more crucial elements of the game.
We hope that this portion of content will help you understand what to expect from the Full version of the game (apart from cutscenes). And, on the other hand, your feedback would help us make the Full version even better.
We want our development process to be as transparent as possible without spoiling too much of the actual game. We want you to be informed about our work, but at the same time keep some surprises in store for the time when you will finally be able to launch the game.
