Fallout 76 has proven that it doesn't have to be too bad if the community has a say in the development of a game. No Man's Sky even showed us that it can save a game - and Dead By Daylight keeps demonstrating how to do it correctly: Approaches to open development can now be found in a number of games, from Kickstarter projects to AAA titles who work hand in hand with their Reddit community to find the way to a better game.
Yagers The Cycle relies on Open Development, and without compromise: You can vote, have a say and express wishes - but above all you can play The Cycle for free. In the meantime, income is generated from cosmetic items. We spoke to Yager about this special type of game development and about the advantages of contacting the community:
The team around The Cycle not only reacts to criticism, but also notes down the wishes of the community and develops the shooter accordingly. Without a doubt, this means that the same community could test and play new features in advance - in an open beta. There is currently a Reddit forum, Discord channels and Twitch streams on the official channel, through which the developers get in touch with the players.

It is an interesting mix of grind shooter and battle royale with co-op and quests, which, like any service game, will continue to be worked on over time. If you want to be part of it, just get The Cycle from the Epic Store and play a few rounds - but don't forget to give Yager some feedback. In addition, my colleague Alex was allowed to play the shooter with the development team, channeling his inner Katniss Everdeen (you know you want to read it now).
