Ooowwwww.

Sad face.

But hey, I'll still play Elite this weekend so that's fine.

I was looking forward to suffocating and the Ed Snuff video! *sniff*

Ah well I can wait - Cheers Ed

Hi everyone,

The team have been working really hard to get the 2.3 beta ready for release, but there are a few issues we’re still trying to iron out before it’s ready for public testing. For that reason we’re now aiming to release the 2.3 beta this coming Monday 27th February.

I’m sorry for any inconvenience this causes, thank you for your patience and we’re looking forward to giving you hands on with the beta next week.

Ed

So, do we get a Thursday stream where we can grill someone with questions?

Thanks for the update Ed! We understand, take your time.

But perhaps we could get a glimpse at the Patch Notes? Please? Pretty peleaaaase?

Eh, there goes my weekend. I guess they need time, so as to not introduce *more* bugs. Anyway, glad you guys are trying to get this right. Any sneak peaks ~~other than the known issues~~?

Kosmetas · Feb 23, 2017

Thank you... giving us a solid product is more important than any deadline. We appreciate all the hard work and hours devoted to a game we enjoy.

A shame, but good news.

Appreciate the update

Nicou · Feb 23, 2017

Thanks for the news Ed

Will this also delays the new minor factions batch "End of January/Early February"?

Typical what? I totally prefer them bringing out stuff that works, rather than copypasta-nonworking crapalotamus.

Awww. Thanks for the update.

Care to share a sneak peek of a mega-ship or some Dolphin stats, just to keep us happy until then?

Agreed. I think as compensation we should get a sneak peek of the Panther Clipper or an asteroid base or something. Anything to make tomorrow's newsletter more interesting.

I'm glad it's cancelled, I have to fix a fence that came down in these gales bashing the UK at the moment.

Ozric · Feb 23, 2017

Thanks a lot for the update Ed. Tell the team not to work all weekend!

Zed · Feb 23, 2017

If you could wait until after 17:00 on Monday to make it available that would be great! I can't get home from work until just after 17:00 you see

No! We'll do a Q&A stream next week though.

Can't be helped... better than just releasing and all hell breaking loose.

Despite being a broken beta, it's still a beta. Besides, hell will break loose anyway.

Red Fox Four · Feb 23, 2017

I assume the things that need to be ironed out is giving the F-Gunship 3 crew slots instead of just 2 right? Right?
