Do we get a heads up?

Before they remove Alpha 2 Access packs will we get a good time of a heads up?
e.g: This is the last month this will be available?

My theory is that the A2 server has a limited and known capacity for concurrent players and that the sale of A2 access passes is nearing that limit, adjusted for expected no-shows. Since the last thing they want to happen is to have an overpopulated server suffering serious lag, and the resulting bad publicity, they are going to be very careful and cap access at what the server can handle well.

Once that many A2 keys are sold, they will stop selling them. I think that this is a smart way to approach the capacity issue. So, they will cut off sales once that number of passes are sold, and no one can perfectly predict exactly when that will be.

Were you to ask my advice (which you have not), I would encourage you to buy the access sooner rather than later.

They've said they will give a heads up. They already warned last month that you have anywhere from 1-to-3 more months before they pull the A2 packages. So if you see a cosmetic pack you like in the next couple months, I'd say buy it, because you won't have many more opportunities to hold out for something else you like. They may give another announcement that "this is the last pack" in the coming months.

But, they already warned that they are approaching their player cap for Alpha 2. That announcement alone may have been enough to 'FoMo' people into purchasing A2. It's possible they already hit the cap and at their next livestream they'll say "Sorry, we're fresh out of A2 packs. We did warn you last month that it would end soon..."

While Steven has been very clear if you aren't sure, just wait for the release. My thoughts are especially after the LONG drought of testing after Alpha 1, if you are at all interested in helping them test the game to make it the best product it can be, along with playing a persistent world that could take a minimum a year to develop then I would say just get it. The prices are much more reasonable now than it was for Alpha 1.

The good things unlike other games is, if you choose to wait you will be able to follow the games development while watching your favorite streamers.
