Hey guys, Joe here!
Just to clear up a few misconceptions, if you backed our Kickstarter, you have already purchased the game, so depending on the tier you backed, you will still be able to get access to the game! This Paypal store was launched purely for those who missed the 30 days Kickstarter campaign and want to support development . This does not affect any rewards that will be given to our Kickstarter backers next year.
To keep everything fair, the prices of access to the Alpha, Beta and Early Access tiers mirror the prices of the corresponding Kickstarter tiers. If you were a Kickstarter backer you still receive the backer rewards that only the Kickstarter had access to. Thank you for backing, we will always remember the original 10,000 who backed the project and those who tried but couldn't due to KS Payment issues.
To those of you now considering purchasing access to our early versions of Battalion 1944, come and join our fantastic community. We've been working with them to build Battalion 1944, now we've surpassed the foundation building stage of development, we're onto the real gritty design of our WW2 first person shooter.
Tonight, we'll be revealing one of our weapons to show you the quality of Battalion 1944, we'll be showing you the level of game you can expect from us and showing the gaming world how Battalion 1944 is here to stay and compete in the FPS genre.
Also as a side note for those who are confused; If you purchase the alpha access, you receive all other copies (Alpha > Beta > Early Access > Full Game). You don't need to purchase multiple versions!
Thank you everybody, we'll see you on the livestream tonight for our weapon reveal at 21:30 BST (UK time).
