It's always wiser to be fashionably late than disastrously early, especially when early means inviting a parade of bugs to the party.

Who wants a critical crash that sends your game save into the abyss or, even more thrilling, a softlock that turns your gaming session into a 'stare at the screen' contest?

Rushing out a build might just be the tech version of opening Pandora's box—you simply don't know what kind of digital gremlins are going to pop out!

Isn't that the reason why it's called beta test builds, anyways?

You know to report bugs and mishaps so the full release builds will have as little bugs and mishaps as possible?

Well Joe mentioned getting the build together which is essentially compiling the executable files i believe. 

Otherwise JoeW can correct me

That is what backups are for.

Worlds do not backup and some users wouldnt know how

Most people actually transfer their saves over to Beta so they can have the new content in their world so when the stable version is out it's ready to go!

Well, then they shouldn't.  Is not a live release but a test build. Is made for feedback not for impatient people wanting to transfer their 5k world to later complain because something got bugged

Well i'll just wait for the update to be fully baked.

As easy as pressing the folder buttom when you are about to launch the world. An universally known buttom since is used in windows

That's not exactly how software development works

I love how this thread has almost just become the official beta waiting room :D it's definitely nice not to have a million posts of "when beta" and to share all our excitement together :D

I pray that this thread never gets locked.
