News 2.4 - The Return Beta Information

[AndyJ]

No stream about todays 2.4 beta release?

They'll no doubt do something when 2.4 goes live, but no - I don't think that they normally cover Beta in a stream due to its limited availability.

And anyway - remember - "What happens in Beta, stays in Beta!"

New weapons why oh why.

Crazy stupid idea

Uh because our human weapons and shields are completely ineffective against Thargoid tech. So the new weapons/modules are for Thargoid combat.

Crazy stupid comment

I don't expect Thargoids to have the same tech humanity does, so why not have a different type of setup? If not, thargoids would be just a re skinned thougher version of our npcs.

I can't see any reference to the year in the OP. It just says 17th August. Are we sure it's this year?

Well, since I'm currently downloading it I guess the answer is yes!

Same here, getting pretty low bandwidth at the moment, only .6 mb/s - hopefully it'll pick up...

Hang on, I only get 1.9 access?

I bought the original beta and I've got Horizons but that's not enough to qualify for the Horizons beta. How much do you have to pay?

 

[cmdr milesred]

A little light shed here would be nice.
Beta 2.5/1.9, when and where and how was one supposed to get this?
I was under the impression that my Horizons Beta unlimited was going to cover this, apparently not and I can't find any info on how I was supposed to get access to the Beta 2.5/1.9
Or is my Launcher just damaged?

Type-10 Defender finded by Nicou https://twitter.com/BlackBigBang in the beta (MC Menu).

 

[Frelix Arcadia]

OK, so this is going to come across as really dumb, it does even to me, and I've been playing on and off since launch..How do I access the test server and download the beta? Is it on the launchpad? I honestly don't remember and I'm at work right now so can't check.

Go ahead, throw stones or preferbly pie

 

[leemason]

Played 10 minutes 5 server crashes think I will leave it for now

 

[ShamelesPain]

I will follow with another dumb question: How does one buy into Closed Beta Access? Can this be done now? I would REALLY like to help with the Beta testing, no matter the cost! Thanks!!!

 

[Siobhan]

Looking forward to testing out all the changes Sarah made to the Docking Computer/Ship Recall System.

Um ok. I found my npc couldn't dock at all into my Conda. So I took over and she couldn't hold it steady for me. I eventually flew the Conda up high and finally it could dock.

 

[Azgodeth]

ugh, we have to pay to do betas? so we are paying to fix the game for you? -.-

that aside, things look exiting and it will be interesting to see whats new.

 

[Phazon Xenomorph]

Anyone know if Palin now in the face of Thargoids and interactions with them has finally made larger cargo racks? Or are we still forced into just max of size capacity 2 racks in often size 4+ slots?
