Hello Warlander!
We appreciate your patience as you wait for news about the end of the Open Beta and the start of the Early Access Phase. We had hoped to have the Early Access start date to you by now, but as we have mentioned in the chat, we are still working on finalizing the date internally.
Why are you still working on the date?
We want to present you with an Early Access version that will not only meet our own quality standards but also address as many of the problems and improvement opportunities as possible that you helped us identify during Open Beta testing.
Bringing Warlander to this state will ensure that we can confidently begin to market Warlander and bring in new players. We want to make sure that as much of your feedback around the new player experience as possible is worked in so that we can positively build on the excellent community that has helped us get to here.
Taking our time at this point to get things right will benefit all of us in the long run.
What exactly are you doing?
We have been prioritizing the topics that we want to complete before Early Access with most of this coming from community feedback. There are of course improvements and additions that were already planned, before your feedback, so we are finalizing the priority of these topics now, and already working them into our Early Access build.
So… when is Early Access?
As most of you have been here with us from day 1, you know that we are doing our best to be as honest and transparent as possible, as well as playing Warlander daily, and often with you, so it is killing us to not be able to share a date with you yet. With that said, we promise you that as soon as we know, you will know, and whatever the timing is, we do all of this with the best interest of Warlander, and the community in mind.
Where is the news about the Open Beta Rewards?
We have completed the Open Beta rewards bundle, which we are excited to share with you. Currently, we are finalizing the accompanying art assets, and then we will share the Rewards with you all.
Thanks for your continued feedback and support!
Your Warlander Team ːsteamthumbsupː
