Alpha3 now Sat Aug 27?

[NoNameCity]

Just received an email, oh well, extra 4 days on top [sad]

What was meant by 'pre-alpha' as mentioned in the first stream, did anyone ever find out?

I think it is the working copy prior to Alpha 3 release. That email said that "full steam integration" will be on August 27th, not that we have to wait until then to start Alpha 3.

This is from the email:

Water and desert terrains, all-new rides and the ability to share your blueprints with full Steam integration are just a few of the cool features you'll have access to from August 27.

This is from the email:

nice catch parkmaker, I was thinking the same thing. launch of alpha 3 would be 23rd. and 4 days isn't exactly long to make sure full steamworks integration is implemented

 

[Nichaz]

I spotted this too. It would be nice to get some official word on whether this was a typo or a sly delay announcement.

 

[BernyMoon]

I recived it too...

 

[NoNameCity]

ok, so correct me if I'm wrong, Alpha3 set for 23rd using the 'frontier' launchpad, switching to 'steam' on the 27th?

 

[inspectorgadget1]

Realistically a typo, why would they release an Alpha during the weekend?

 

[Bo Marit]

I'm looking into it, please give us a minute

I am still reading that as the 27th tbh as it is one sentence that the punctuation suggests it all comes out at once in honesty.

That is fine as it is the day I am back from Holiday anyways.

Also the Pre-Alpha 3 just means they are playing on the build prior to release to the public which is the official release. Not that we get a Pre-Alpha 3 publicly and then another release 4 days later.

Don't think it would release on a Saturday. They would want to release it early in the week so then they could fix any major bugs during the rest of the week.

I got the email as well, an extra few days is no big deal to me imo, if it came down to it.

So sending out this email was a mistake? Cause I didn't got any.

 

[Curlyriff]

Yeah mistake in email, however on note it means that full steam support is there straight away etc along with everything else noted [big grin]

 

[Abletudu]

I don't think the email was a mistake, just that the date was a typo. @ LenniTheGeek Do you have Alpha Access now?
