I am a little bit behind on DST news. I read there will be closed beta soon. what does closed beta mean? does it mean it will be a limited access to specific people? or is that just like the early access version of ROG on steam?

Let's keep things on topic shall we. I know this is such an exciting time but it's not long left now. Let the wild explosions of childish excitement take over on release day.

 

i think we all can't help it. XD

So when will the alpha really be released?

 

There was a public demo on PAX (you can find videos on this forum or on youtube, twitch, etc.)

 

Closed beta will launch before 23rd of September. Everything else is written in the stars.

sorry for the double post, i don't know how to fix it. :(

 

i think one spam is enough! XD

 Hey you said we can't help it! XD 

It's only right that if the world is flipped that the universe be flipped! XD

As they said, more info will be available by the end of the month. They are discussing what we will be able to publicly discuss (and not discuss) with others not in the game as well. Invites will be few, but ramp up over time. That's all the devs have posted on this so far. 

I'm pretty sure you can't sign up, actually. Would've posted this earlier, but my iPad doesn't like these forums.

 

So how do i know if i can play when the beta comes out? Is it just random lucky users?

Ah, I meant you can't sign up yet. Sorry. I'm used to forums having an edit button, and I didn't want to doublepost. Anyway, i don't know if it will be lucky users. All I know is that there is going to be a don't starve together beta by the end of the month.

Yeah, i know how it is, i'd really appreciate if there was an edit button, and thanks for the answer !

You will be able to edit your posts once you post more than 5 in a non-off-topic area. This is for anti-spam reasons as not to sneak them in legitimate posts to spam edits. 

 

I assume it would be like the ROG

 

 

And how did that work, exactly, for those of us not in the know?

The devs are discussing this. Since it's a closed and not open Beta, it won't simply be downloaded off of Steam from your normal game for everybody.

 

This is the part I am only speculating on based on my many testings from multiple companies from Pre-Alpha to stress testing before release games:

 

People interested will sign up on a link or email provided by Klei. Selected people will be chosen (some specifically requested, some randomly so,) and they will be given a key to enter (likely in Steam) for a new Beta build. As more info is gotten on player feedback, changes to the build will be done, and more people will be invited. Eventually, most anybody who signs up to be included will get to try it and the final stage is as many people as the servers can handle to make sure the high loads don't crash what was theoretically proposed to work running the MP game (or "Stress testing.")

 

Then the add-on is released and people can then connect in the approved tested methods offered through the beta, now general release.
