New Return of the Shakturi 1.5.0.6 Public Beta Available!

[Data]

Maybe they noticed some of our feedback and they prepare some more fixes for the official one. I'd like that, waitning is not a problem.

[tjhkkr]

There has been very little activity on the forum these last few days; I am wondering if there are issues.

[tornnight]

I think it's the opposite. Everyone is too busy playing to get on the board.

We concur. Happy people are quiet people.

[Data]

There are always issues: exterminating monsters, getting that loros moon, pest control etc etc [:)]

[Sithuk]

This version is definitely playable. We're all likely stuck in our space sand pits.

I'm looking forward to the externalisation of as much of the game as possible. Then the real fun begins: game balancing and community mods.

[Igard]

Hmmm.. I think this version is great. No apparent bugs that I can find so why not release a full version?

There are lots of players who don't download the beta patches so they're long overdue an update.

[Data]

That was the plan last time we were updated, I hope the hold up is due to more goodies. I know, I know, it's wishful thinking [:)]

[Caesar_Augustus]

I'm sure there will be more goodies in the next patch,
since Elliot and Erik are good developers.
Patience.

And dear friends, I haven't been playing very much,
I've been feeling very down lately. I'm a rather a
sensitive soul and things affect me pretty much.
Can't help it, but this time it's taking its toll on me.

And for all the galactic emperor I am, enjoying destroying
planets with the Death Star, that doesn't mean I haven't got a heart.

Just airing out a bit. Thanks, all.

[Igard]

Hope you feel better soon, Caesar. There's alot of turmoil in the world right now. What we could do with a bit of imperial order, eh?

@Data, More goodies would require another beta patch. It just seems like an ideal time to release a full update via the installer.

That way alot of folks who don't download the beta patches will get an update. Unless Erik and Elliot have looked at the numbers and most every DW player is running the beta patch anyway?

[Data]

I agree entirely and I think that's their target as well.
Since it's rather easy to rollback to a pre-beta state I'd be surprised if many of us can abstain from trying the newest stuff [:)]

[Shuul]

I can[8D] I never use beta patches, dont want to ruin game experience if something goes wrong with it. So ill just wait.

[Caesar_Augustus]

Thank you, Igard. True enough, the world is in a bit of upheaval,
but it's my own interior world that needs some imperial order, too.

Oh I'll survive this, but I fear I'm on the brink of losing hope,
and that's pretty bad.

I try to remember Tolkien's "There is always hope", and I truly
believe it, but at the moment it's very hard for me.
I don't remember ever feeling quite this way before.

Thanks again.

Focus on whats important in life.

Dont focus on the past, focus on the future.

[JamesM]

Has anyone encountered an issue in this beta where construction ships when assigned to manual task, never seem to complete them?

[Caesar_Augustus]

Yes well, I do believe I am focusing on what's important in life.
That's why I feel the way I do...

But thanks, alexalexuk.

[Igard]

Maybe I'll soon have a little Star Trek mod update to cheer you up.[:)]

[tjhkkr]

I agree that it is a good sign when the tech issues forum has not had a single new report in 3 days (as of 3/19).

[Simulation01]

I don't download Beta patches.  One because I don't have time to play test for the developers and help out, and two because the last time I did that they made a change to it and then made it official....when I tried to then go through the installer to update the beta to the newest version it did not work.  I had to uninstall the game and delete any mention of it in the root directory and reinstall to get it to work correctly again.  That wound up my beta test downloads.
