Check out the status report of August 29th, 2017

The dev team has put up a new status report post-GamesCom. It features a brief recap of what was featured in the liveplay-demo at GamesCom and also features my GamesCom demo.


But they have also announce that they won't be releasing the demo on Steam anytime soon due to still existing bugs that would consume too much time they would rather spend on getting the actual beta ready.

In the same time, I have some less exciting news for you. As the build we brought to Gamescom would still take weeks to get ready for public testing, we will not be releasing the DEMO for Steam. We really wanted to, but it just no longer makes sense to spend time polishing a very small part of the whole BETA experience. Feedback has been overwhelmingly positive on the floor, and I do believe we are hitting the right notes on what BETA should feel like. Rather than releasing a DEMO, our goal is to get the BETA/0.63 update out as soon as possible in its entirety on Experimental branch when ready. That does not mean it's going to be rushed. We do believe that the only way out of this hellhole is a really good game that all of us want to play.

  • I really wasn't expecting them to release the demo after GamesCom - wonder if anyone really thought they would.
