No it's not, alpha maybe but certainly not pre-alpha. Remember how version 1.0's beta went and everyone said it was going to change by release and it turned out nothing did? What you see is most likely what you'll be getting.



Alpha has not begun yet, so it is pre-alpha.
Simple concept is simple.


No it's not that simple. Public alpha hasn't started. This has nothing to do with the title development cycle. The game could be at alpha stage for 3 months without you knowing it.
Stop calling it pre-alpha. Either you are in the dev team and knows exactly where ARR is on its development cycle, either you don't know anything and are only assuming things.
Believing that a software alpha stage only starts when it goes public is stupid. It could (and most likely would) start way before that. SE won't ship an alpha client to us without making internal tests first.
"Congrats guy, we reached a new milestone, ARR is now Alpha"
"Quick let's release it now!"
I'm not a fan of wikipedia, but at least since you seems completely clueless, this could help you : http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Softwar...fe_cycle#Alpha

hmm strange that Yoshi him self mention is not yet in alpha stage... o_O im pretty sure is one of the gamescom interview... .No it's not that simple. Public alpha hasn't started. This has nothing to do with the title development cycle. The game could be at alpha stage for 3 months without you knowing it.
