Hello fellow players. This is EZ2ON TEAM.
Our team is working wholeheartedly to deliver a stable and smooth gameplay experience.
However, our resources are very limited.
For that reason, we've decided to make some adjustments to our previous plan for early access.
Client updates covering the technical aspects of the game will still be continued.
And yet, we don't want our players to spend their valuable time dealing with a game-breaking bug.
To prevent that, we're introducing a public test server.
If we want to test out some changes and/or new features, those will be deployed on the PTS.
PTS is expected to be launched in the fall of this year.
Content updates also will be continued.
20 songs are planned to be added throughout early access and of course,
It's free of charge. Next week, we're adding some bangers from the arcade series.
「picking」 by LUZE(ルゼ ) and 「Daydream」 by RiraN. Also, a new paid DLC is planned for this September.
There were lots of discussions about the "generic BGA".
(the one that consists of simple animation loops) We do care about the visual aspects of the game though,
delivering a variety of songs to our players is always our number one priority.
After internal discussion, we've decided to use the generic BGA or, a simple BGA (e.g. SINGULAR POINT) when it's applicable.
Few things we’d like to share about remastering BGAs
There are two different ways to remaster the legacy BGAs.
1. Starting from scratch. Place the image assets to the video production program and mimic the original one as close as possible.
2. Screen recording. Import the BGA to our very old gameplay engine, hit the play button.
And then we capture the screen as HD resolution.
Currently, about 50 percent of entire BGAs were remastered using the first method.
In other words, approximately 100 BGAs are done and ready to ship.
Our long-term goal is to rework the others (the screen recording ones) using the same method.
But still, some technical constraints make us almost impossible to work with the raw assets.
Therefore, about 90 percent of the rest will be reworked if everything goes smoothly.
As always, thank you for supporting 『EZ2ON REBOOT : R』. We're looking forward to meet you all INSIDA DJ BOX.
