This will be a thread of known issues for Beta Weekend #2, with possible solutions, workarounds and status updates.

1 - You may encounter error 037 during this beta weekend! Don't worry, you do have friends and this error is lying to you. What is actually happening is your character is failing to initialize when joining a drop, this is on us and is a known bug. Simply trying again until it works is the best way to solve this one.

Update: WE HAVE A HOTFIX INCOMING FOR THIS BUG.

None of the deluxe things (enviro suit, outposts etc) are available throughout the beta anyway so I'm assuming it will just be there on launch regardless of whether you upgraded/refunded/repurchased or purchased deluxe initially.

Can someone confirm if this is true or not? (I agree it seems likely but I want to be sure)

Can confirm this is true, the exclusive envirosuit and 'outposts' are not planned to be... Read more

Our Beta Weekend logic is thought out, let me try give you some of our logic here:

- Beta Weekends allow us to test specific features of the game that we want targeted feedback on, so we can refine, improve and optimise them to be the best they can be for launch. This is why each weekend is stacking new content on top of the existing!
- Running Beta Weekends also allows players to test the game without that 2-hour refund window looming over them, as someone mentioned above!
- It's also about avoiding Beta fatigue! We want to make sure the game is great when everyone gets in and grinds away, so doing it this way allows us to get the game there, without it getting all burnt out!

Hope this helps unravel it a bit! And your opinion on the weekends is absolutely fine too, not everyone has to like them or agree with them, but we have decided to go this direction for many reasons :)

Firstly, thank you for your positive feedback on the trailer! We were really proud of it, and we're glad you like it too!

In terms of the game itself, thank you for your feedback! I'd encourage you to come test out the building features in the beta, the overall sentiment has been super positive! Plus, your beta hours won't count towards your 2-hour steam cap, so you can test everything out to your hearts content!

Hope this helps!

What you just experienced was weekend #1 of 6 Beta Weekends, each with new content as we slowly test out key features and make improvements! To give context, you've seen about 5% of the game so far!

Hi! Here to dispel a few myths or assumptions that you might have:

- We have 2 purposes with this beta. Test our features and get real feedback from players (hence the 6 weekend rollout) and give players a chance to test without the 2 hour countdown looming over them (confirmed it won't count towards it)

- We have a very capable and talented QA team! They're the bees knees. But players also want a say, so here's a beta for you to do that!

- That artwork was me! I did that so people would know that if they pre-ordered, they could come test the beta out! The fact you noticed it, meant I did my job right! Woohoo!

Hope this helps!
