Seems the devs are keeping us very much in the dark over 1.3. No news and no eta on when its due, come on feed us some bread crumbs.
 
Read last week's newsletter mate, 1.3 is due for May. And the dev update should be tomorrow, so hopefully more news. :)

They're putting up the latest mac beta today to add crossplay. If I was a dev I'd be putting the 1.3 beta out to both mac and pc players and tie the mac release in with 1.3 without having to do two releases of 1.3 one for pc then one for mac.
 
I thought the plan was to launch 1.3 on PC and MAC at the same time. So it would make sense to launch 1.3 Beta on PC/MAC with crossplay. You can then kill three birds with one stone.

Sorry Commander but killing birds is against the FD rules! No killing birds! Fellow commanders yes, and NPC commanders sure, Thargoids offcourse! But birds ? Nope you may not kill them! :p

Sadly given the community they erred on the side of caution. If they had done a simul-release of Mac and PC 1.3 and there were any issues beyond minor trivia, they would have been slammed for trying to do too much in one release and "anyone could see this was going to be a male chicken up..."
 
According to newsletter 72 the Mac version will launch with PP included. So either the Mac launches first (extremely unlikely IMO) or they launch together. My bet is for either 26th or 27th May (Monday 25 is a holiday in the UK so they might want to have a "spare" working day pre-launch as they usually do before patches).
