OK - guess I misjudged the vibe in the room here ... yeah, go on then, be responsible adults and answer some of the beta feedback please!Things to test in the beta blowout ...
- how many shieldless ships can you gather around an asteroid and destroy with a single detonation?
- canyon racing Adam Woods style, first person to explode wins!
- on your marks, get set, bind! (commanders start with default bindings and must race to setup their controls, first person to scan a planet with the FSS and then fully probe it's surface wins)
- Mamba Grill (commanders must place strips of raw bacon on their Mamba's, first with a fully cooked fry-up wins)
- Nightvision hide and seek (commanders have 1 minute to hide themselves on the dark side of a planet, seeker uses nightvision to find them)
Can't wait!

Presumably by Thursday evening the Beta 3 patchnotes will be on the forum and we'll know what their initial response to the issues raised has been.Yes please. Doesn't have to be a livestream, just writing some stuff on the forum would do.
well, when i first tried this beta, it was already week2 and jumped right into the mining part
then watching the recap from the livestream...
i almost felt like the Blizzcon redshirt guy:

i seriously hope week 4 is used to fix things and that the surprise (i am pretty sure it was mentioned somewhere) is a positive one.
There is usually a gap between the end of beta and full release though.
Gamepad ?
[rant]No offense, but when are you really going to consider to play the game the way I believe was meant to be played.
With an HOTAS ?
For any new pilot wanting to join the pilots Federation, it should be MANDATORY to go trough a special HOTAS flying course.
I mean, even consoles have HOTAS nowadays for christ sake !
And I believe that many of the current problems encountered in beta could have been avoided if the devs put themselves in a situation that I believe a considerable part of the player base goes trough ! [/rant]
Looking forward to it !
It would be great if we could have feedback livestream next week where Adam addresses some of the concerns raised in the Beta forum.

Sorry if I sound like a grumpy forum dad, but I too would like to hear responses to a representative slice of the feedback from the forum, not just the backslapping jolly japes demolition derby improvised double act we had last week. The community has put a lot of time into testing the beta, and their questions are valid, so it would be fair for the community team to put some extra time into preparing the content of the livestream.

I read it that the beta would last 4 weeks, but that there would be no major updates announced at the start of the 4th week
[EDIT] Actually looking again at the infographic from the original announcement, it could just as easily mean that the beta ends at the start of the 4th week, i.e. only 3 week long.
Yes the infographic does suggest that the beta ends next week, but last week's newsletter gives the end date as Nov 26.
