READ FIRST: Everything you need to know about the Planet Coaster alpha

[agodin]

Hello,

I brought the game on 25 August 2016 on the frontier store, I am sure it said it purchased before this date we get the early bird edition free. Also when/how do i get the steam key in order to have access to the alpha stage.
Kind Regards

If you pre-ordered the standard (not early bird/alpha access) version from the Frontier site you have been upgraded to the Thrillseeker copy and will have access to the Alpha for 5 days from the end of next week. Those keys will be made available a day or 2 before the Party in the Park 'weekend' starts, most likely through the 'My Key Purchases' option on your Frontier account page:

Will the buyers of the Alpha edition get the perks of the Thrillseeker Edition? And if so, how and when do we get them?

Yes, alpha players will get the thrillseeker edition perks

You will get them at the time of release (November 17th)

How, i'm not sure.

You should already have the thrillseeker edition in your key purchases list on the Frontierstore.

Why do we need 2 Versions of the Game on Steam? Will the Alpha not automatical transform to BETA and then to Thrillseeker?

Nope.

There is the Alpha AND the final release of the game (which will begin with a beta test phase)
The alpha version will be removed.

Ok... I still don´t understand why it has to be that way, but I think Frontier has a plan for doing so...

It's here, the park has opened, downloading as we speak!
I'm so excited!!!! [big grin]

Hey man, I was wondering if you went forward with playing on this set up? I have the exact same and wanted to know how it ran.

Hey man, I was wondering if you went forward with playing on this set up? I have the exact same and wanted to know how it ran.

I have nearly the exact same setup except I have 12 GB instead of 8 GB. Works well on my system. Usually, around 50-60 fps on an empty park and around 30-15 fps on a large park. This is on low settings. Though since you have 8 GB, I think it my run a little slower but I'm not too sure. I think your're in good shape as long as you play on low.
