Early Access/Greenlight Disclaimer
Please... PLEASE! Make people agree to something while/before purchasing Early Acces games...
Something along the lines of...
"By getting something in Early Access, you are aware it is an unfinished product, you get the opportunity to play it as it evolves. Descriptions and marketing on the Early Access pages are not representative of what is garunteed in the final product, but rather what is planned, or hoped for by the developers if they have the time, money, and resources to implement it."

Early access games already have a disclaimer in their respective store pages.
It's a big, blue, hard to miss box.
A pop-up won't solve any problem for people with compulsive purchase habits.

The "Get instant access and start playing; get involved with this game as it develops." bit?
That's not really what I was looking for... but rather something that tells people straight up, Don't expect a finished product, and do not look at planned features as being final.

Well if you look at Early Access and what it means it says that
Some Early Access Dev put these messages on there Early Access message part.. like Dayz.. some do not..

And some Dev may work 100% to get what they say they will do so the planned features need to be final

Not only the blue box kinda does this, but pop-ups are by FAR the most-easily overlooked warnings. People will just hit OK as soon as they can, rendering the feature useless, or even inconvenient for those who do know about Early Access.

EDIT : typos
