News 1.5 Beta - Ships - Incoming

Zac Antonaci

Head of Communications

Hi everyone,

I know many of you have been waiting extremely patiently for the 1.5 “Ships” beta to come out this week.

The beta is coming today, and there is a lot in there! The team have been working long hours to get it ready, and it’s nearly time. So get ready, the cargo has been loaded, the docking request has been granted and we’re aiming for a 7pm delivery. We decided not to wait until next week to make the beta live as we know how incredibly valuable the extra weekend of testing is.

This means we’re really looking for your help. Our beta testers have been incredibly helpful throughout the past year and we’re asking for your service as beta members again. With Horizons coming on the… well horizon, we really need your feedback on a lot of new code that’s gone in under the hood.

So to all our fantastic beta players - please do play, test and most importantly feedback on our beta forum here and report your bugs here.

Thank you all Commanders. Fly safe!

Just to add to what Zac just said, a huge thank you to the team that have worked long and hard on this build.

They have done a great job, so please be constructive with any comments. There is a lot of new code, and I’m sure there will be problems on some machines. We have just heard of an infrequent task-switching bug on Mac, but have decided to go ahead anyway rather than delay the build. I will be playing over the weekend too, so let’s thrash this build properly!

Can't wait to see whats in store!

Also on a side note is it just me that was thinking "Many of you have been waiting extremely patiently" translates to And others have been asking "are we there yet" constantly on the thread :p
