Development Timeline question

So Ive forced myself away from here since about January (checking back every day was making the game take too long lol). But Id like to see where were at; like have we hit pre-alph, alpha 1, etc? I still have the Merchant Package on layaway and Im just kinda look for a general ETA on when I need to have this paid off by for beta 1.

Thanks, Sinner.

Hi Sinner, welcome back! The current timeline is that Domain and Settlement Selection will be coming up fairly soon but we don't have a concrete date yet. I would say ETA is 2-3 months on server & domain selection but we don't have a lot of ideas on when exactly it will come. Right not we are waiting for V3 of the COE website, which will give us a clearer indication of just how close selection is as V3 is the opening to the web tools required for the upcoming things (MUD, KoE, etc).

Here's some more information on the timeline according to the Wiki

Everything Hellmoon said is correct! Additionally, we're expecting a major development update sometime next month after the final Tribes Q&A, which should set out a firmer roadmap on when to expect the next steps in the path towards Alpha 1. I don't have a concrete date on when that update will be made, but I suspect it will be no later than late July.

Awesome! Thanks for the help, yall.

Don't I remember something about layaway's days being numbered? If so, you don't want to wait another six months before checking back in. :)

You can still pay for the already layawayed packages though in the same increments.

State of Elyria will happen end of this month or beginning of next month per Caspian. No date on the actual State of Elyria yet, expecting it soon though. This should give us a better idea on when things are happening. Land and domain selection could be sooner or later than 2-3 month. should be more clear at that time.

anyone giving dates out at this time is just guessing.

Just so I understand this 100%, this means that layaways will no longer be purchasable after the 1st, but i can still continue payments on mine that I already have going, right?

Yea that is correct. The layaways stop after the 1st but you can continue paying on yours. I would try to have it paid off before fall tho, as you don't receive any benefits of that package until its paid for.

I think you're out by a month there -- the "State of Elyria" is expected after the tribe & biome announcements have finished. As the last tribe Q&A is the 24th July I think we should expect the SoE around the end of next month or the start of August.

I think "per Caspian" here is in ref to: Live Q&A Tribes, Part II 1:06:11

The State of Elyria thing is basically a 6 month report, so during June makes more sense because it's basically a report on where the game and the company itself is at, it's not something that requires tribal information.

The last one was at the end of December here

It could always be pushed back sure, but that also kinda defeats the point of having it as bi-annual thing.

Okay, that's great -- I hadn't realised they'd announced that, I was going of outdated info.
