Alpha 3.0 article

Just had a note flash up on my stock market news feed of the release of Alpha 3.0. Go enjoy commanders!

Computer says NO.

It's not ready for download just yet, at least according to my launcher. 08:48GMT.

Not sure if this means 3.0 is going live right now. Friday is such an unlikely release day...

I heard that it's out lunchtime / 12pm Uk time.

souce may have been in one of the BAFTA ambassador thread / can't be sure, I've read so many assorted threads in the last day concerning the coverage / watched youtube clips etc.

so still a few hours away (if that turns out to be accurate).......

Well let us wait and see! I suspect great tracts of the weekend may be spent in and out of shiny brightly lit metal geometric shapes!

Frontier COME ON ... GET ON WITH IT ALREADY
Joe Public non-backers played it on Wednesday
Journos are reporting on it
Stock market websites are reporting it's realeased

WHY ARE WE WAITING? we are suffocating ....

Can't wait! Will try to post some videos asap for those not in the alpha.

Just remember, Joe Public got to play a few minutes with a single player setup. You guys get to play the real deal for as long as you like. Enjoy your moments of intense frustration and anticipation!

Thread subject changed? It's a conspiracy!

 

[Geraldine]

The thread has been renamed as to avoid possible confusion. Frontier will officially announce the Alpha 3.0 release in their usual way in the announcement threads. Thanks.

Indeed. Thoroughly enjoyed NOT playing Alpha 3.0 last night. Totally looking forward to it being released today and still NOT playing it because I am travelling until late this evening. Most enjoyable.

Consider it a lesson in delayed gratification. Here, I'll let Tom Hiddleston explain...
