2s hey you it's me snoot i'm one of the
4s community managers at coffee stain
6s studios and i just want to make this
8s real quick video just to talk about sort
10s of the state of things as they are
11s because we're sort of approaching the
13s vacation period in sweden here so you
16s won't be seeing too much of us so i just
18s want to leave off sort of the how are
19s things going right now which you can
21s expect to see and yada yada so let's
24s dive into it all right shall we so yeah
26s update six we work in update six we
28s released it a couple of weeks ago and uh
30s it's not finished
31s that's for sure so if you don't know
33s uptick 6 is available on the
35s experimental branch of the game which
37s you can opt into on both steam and epic
40s and yeah there's there's still a bunch
42s of work left on update 6 unfortunately
44s so uh first and foremost we're looking
46s into crashes we're still fixing crashes
48s uh crashes is our highest priority uh
51s when it comes to working on update six
53s uh we're also fixing a bunch of the like
55s major issues that people are running
56s into there's also a bunch of like
57s lingering issues that we're probably
58s gonna have to
60s get to look into later down the line um
63s and we're also working on some features
66s that we haven't finished yet in update
68s six
69s um most predominantly like everything
71s related to the creatures ai and stuff
73s like that i i did talk about that in a
74s previous video if you're curious there's
76s a card here where i showcase the
78s creatures you can check that out if you
80s want to learn more about that stuff but
81s yeah there's essentially a bunch of work
83s left
84s on update six and uh the majority of the
87s studio is gonna go on vacation starting
90s next week i think so um
93s yeah you probably won't be seeing too
95s much of patches for the next couple of
97s weeks uh we're probably gonna be slowing
99s down a lot of that stuff some of the
102s major crash related issues we're
104s probably gonna try and patch that as
105s much as we can but yeah like i said like
107s the the majority of the students can be
109s gone essentially being on vacation so
111s yeah because of this update six is gonna
112s be on experimental for quite some time
115s you probably won't be seeing update 6 on
117s the early access branch the stable
119s branch for a couple of months
121s really because of this so
124s yeah and the question might be from you
126s guys is like why did you guys release it
128s before vacation if you knew that this
129s was going to be a thing and
131s the the main reason really is that had
133s we waited until uh releasing the update
135s until after vacation time it would have
137s meant that everyone would have gotten
138s the update later so
140s you know people right now are getting
141s access to the experimental version
143s earlier and once we get back from
146s vacation and we have time to wrap things
148s up then then people will also on the
150s early access branch get access to it
151s earlier rather than if we would have
153s delayed everything until after vacation
155s essentially we also felt like releasing
156s it this way it also worked out better in
158s our general planning for development of
160s the game one thing i also want to bring
161s up is the state of dedicated servers so
165s as some people have noticed when you're
166s hosting update six on dedicated servers
169s uh you know there's a there's a couple
170s of issues to of varying degrees most
173s notably the issues relating to foliage
175s and the issues related to uh using
178s extractors both water extractors uh
180s regular like water extractors and the
182s ones you put on nodes satellite nodes
184s and stuff like that it's important to
185s remember that if you're playing update 6
187s on dedicated servers you are effectively
189s playing an experimental release of the
192s game on an experimental state of
194s dedicated servers development of
196s dedicated servers are running kind of in
197s parallel with the general development of
200s the game and a lot of issues that are
202s like exclusively happening on dedicated
204s servers they take a bit longer to sort
207s of troubleshoot and debug and fix than
209s they would in the general game so if you
211s are running update 6 on dedicated
213s servers and you are running into these
215s issues the best course of action really
217s right now is to roll back to an early
219s access version on dedicated servers the
221s stable version and play on that because
224s fixes for dedicated servers will
226s probably take some time unfortunately
228s you know satisfactory is a big game and
229s you know there's only so many of us
231s working on it so this is why we have
233s that experimental label because it
235s really is experimental
237s and once we get back from vacation then
239s we'll have a better chance to look into
241s these issues but for now that's sort of
243s the state of things as they are and i
245s also like to take this moment to mention
246s that i will also go on vacation uh so
250s this is the last youtube video they're
252s gonna be seeing from me for quite some
253s time and there also won't be any weekly
256s dev streams for the duration while i'm
258s gone so
259s this july 12th is gonna be the last dev
262s stream um before i go on vacation
264s essentially so yeah that's the state of
265s things as they are right now just want
267s to make a really quick video just
268s telling you guys that we're going on
270s vacation essentially and you
272s probably won't be seeing too much
273s patching happening the next couple of
274s weeks but once we're back oh boy
278s hopefully we all get some good rest
280s because we've been working really hard
281s on update six and you know we've also
283s been working really hard on all the
285s stuff that didn't make it into update
287s six they're gonna be happening later
289s because they need a little more time to
290s be developed so uh
293s keep those in the oven for a bit but
294s that's it for me for now um so yeah
297s until i see you next time please take
299s care have a great summer and make sure
301s to not stay up too late all right
304s that's it thanks me thanks for me
307s almost got it
308s so take care bye-bye
319s all right audio rolling videos rolling
321s here comes the tiniest clap can you
326s can you use that
330s well i don't know if you can use that
331s i'm gonna do a real clap
335s don't include that in the video
