We have one more Closed Beta session today starting in a little less than 2 hours at 6 p.m. PDT and lasting till 10 p.m. PDT. Tomorrow will be the regular time from 10 a.m. to 2 p.m. PDT and then again at 6 p.m. to 10 p.m. PDT.
With only 3 sessions left till Beta is over, we have just one more quick update the team put in to fix a couple of lingering crashes and make a quick adjustment:
Crash Fixes:
- Fixed crash encountered when character menu sorts inventory
- Added information collection for physics material crashes
Gameplay Adjustment:
- Movement Sprinting limited to Forward, Forward Left (70°), Forward Right (110°), no longer able to sprint at 0° and 180° degree angles
We’ve likewise reduced the player Lobby minimum count back to 20, but increased the pregame time to 210 seconds. Thanks for being patient with the higher figure of 35, but we hope this will allow for faster entry to matches while still filling matches with potential opponents.
Of course these are small changes, and not really a large reflection of the wealth of feedback you sent us. That material will be used to execute much larger changes in the build to come, the build that will represent our first release of Early Access. And the updates don’t end there, we are planning regular improvements along the way–with your feedback of course!
Playing the Long Game
