The Eternal Crusade Developers have released the full list of launch features – Come see the latest!

This info comes from Nathan Richardsson the Senior Producer for Eternal Crusade:

via Eternal Crusade

Here it is and please, for the Crusade, the Emperor, Chaos gods and other entities, share this with your friends. It’s time to clarify the launch feature set and show how much we can add in the free expansions, like Terminator-class (TEQs) in the first expansion. We hope this alleviates some of your concerns or gives you more confidence in what we’re creating and will expand upon. Remember also that Early Access is still at 20% discount from launch prices and of course, we always appreciate an honest review. You’ve been amazing in your feedback and aid in determining the priority of features and the direction of the game.

Eternal Crusade Launch Features

Eagle eyed readers will notice some interesting things in the infographic, such as how conservative we’ve been with numbers. 60+ players is real. If we get to 100+, super! If we get even further, super-duper! Even the amount of items is very inclusive and encompasses variations of many types of items, as well as giving you a sense of the scale our itemization system is working towards.

As with any online game, we will continue post-launch development for years. We find it a very strange practice that in a game designed to play with friends, you can pay for a DLC that denies them from playing with you. Add a few more of that type of DLC, and none of you could play together at all. That’s not how we roll. We don’t want to segment the player-base, so you will all get new content, updates and an expansion every 3 months, for free.

You can read the rest of the State of the Crusade Here – and I would encourage you to do so. Nathan has a lot of info to digest! But, I must say that the crew over at Eternal Crusade have been really amazing at being open about the development – pitfalls, struggles and triumphs – this openness is appreciated and it’s earned them at least one fan (me!) for this game. I’m definitely rooting for them.

Aside from being all gushy – I also want to say that their release schedule and update plan is super ambitious. New content, updates and an expansion every 3 months, for free?! That’s quite a task – I wish them the best of luck with that plan. Oh and as the infographic mentioned you get ALL of that content for $39.99 – if you get the pre-order from Steam. So go check it out!

Eternal Crusade Pre-Order $39.99

Keep in mind that the game is very much in development. If you don’t want to jump in while they are still building it, then wait. If you want to be a part of making this game better by playing and submitting feedback then they want to hear it! It’s currently sitting at a “Mostly Positive” Review rating with 1300+ reviews – not bad for a game still in Early Access!

 

Eternal Crusade is happening – FOR THE EMPEROR!
