Honestly, at this point, the pressure we all feel is coming from within the team to not let you all down. Whether that's through ensuring that we don't release a buggy update or postponing too long and the PS2 community getting frustrated with the delays.

As aggravating, and frankly embarrassing as it is to delay again, I know that holding it until we are confident in stability and quality will be far better received than rushing it out prematurely for the sake of saving face on the slipped dates.

We know that if we want to change past perception, this is how we do it.

Thank you for the detailed notes. Our UI lead saw this and said that 1-3 should be fixed and we just need to publish. 4-5 needs to be fixed.

Hey there! DM me on Discord (jgolenbo#0710) with your Live account name and I’ll do everything I can to get this sorted!

Should be a short delay. Andy outlines the specific issues we’re looking at in his note - if those look good in your eyes on Test tomorrow, it’s going Live.

I’m sure you saw Andy’s note, but not hitting live tomorrow. Tough call but we all feel better having a higher degree of confidence that the Bastion desync and Sanctuary performance issues you saw on Test are fixed before it goes live. If tomorrow’s playtest is a step in the right direction and community verifies the fixes we put in, then it will be a (very) short delay.

Hot tip: You can issue commands on the mini map. No need to open the world map each time.

Hey everyone,

First, I’d like to thank you all for participating in today’s playtest – especially given the short notice. I can’t tell you how much we appreciate your willingness to login at a moments notice and help us.

During the first playtest session, we encountered a server c...

Yea, it was a tough day. That’s why we’re trying to utilize PTS and make sure issues like these pop up there and don’t affect live.

Really appreciate everybody who turned out - on short notice, again(!) - and helped playtest and identify those issues for us.

Thank you sir! :)
