What the developers have to say:

Why Early Access? “Early Access is the perfect opportunity to have our community test the game, with the expectation that there will be bugs. It's also a great opportunity for players to provide useful feedback before the code base is complete. We want to add community-requested and voted features before the full launch.” Approximately how long will this game be in Early Access? “Wild Warfare will likely remain in Early Access for most of 2014. At this point, no official release date for the full version of the game is confirmed.” How is the full version planned to differ from the Early Access version? “The full version of Wild Warfare will include additional: Maps, game modes, classes, vehicles, music and sfx, items, upgrades, and micro-transactions. There will also be a certain level of inherent UI updates and polish to all of the above components and VFX.” What is the current state of the Early Access version? “Wild Warfare is currently in an alpha state. The game is functional and stable, however it is not feature complete. We intend to move through a beta period starting in September 2014. We want to be up front with our players that this game is not complete and will remain in Early Access until it is complete.” Will the game be priced differently during and after Early Access? “The value of the game, it's long term costs, and ease of access will all be balanced to determine it's price point. At this time, it's tough to speculate, but given that it's in an alpha state, there will likely be monetization model tweaks by the time the full product launches. Keep in mind this is an F2P game right now, so additional for-purchase content will be added to the game over time.” How are you planning on involving the Community in your development process? “We develop and launch content iteratively, so the community can expect to test new content often throughout this phase. We would love to receive bug reports, feature requests and balancing suggestions as we go. We are ultimately trying to create an inclusive experience and we are building this game for you! Tell us what you think! We assure you we are listening and will react accordingly.”
