shmilydxc Posted March 12, 2017 Share Posted March 12, 2017 In the steaming they said the next version will be released on March 22, but we can get a preview on March 15. Any idea about how to get the preview?

SpoonsOnMyElbows Posted March 12, 2017 Share Posted March 12, 2017 Same as other games on steam I may be wrong here on the specifics, but i think all you do is click the game on steam and then properties, betas, and enable the beta there. Someone please correct me if i'm wrong, thanks!

Currently there isn't one, but it's getting close!

Masterpintsman Posted March 12, 2017 Share Posted March 12, 2017 To moderate hyped expectations: they said 'we aim for the 15.' - so don't rage in case they take longer.

True, but one can only hope they get the preview patch out on the 15th.

Octyabr Posted March 12, 2017 Share Posted March 12, 2017 I'd like some advancements in performance and better memory management. I have to kill the process every now and then with a hotkey.

jigggy2000 Posted March 12, 2017 Share Posted March 12, 2017 I hope they don't fix it by just increasing the minimum requirements for ram. I doubt they'd do it currently but they do mention that the requirements could change in the future. Not much some of us can do if they decide to do that. Other than get new hardware of course.

Developer ImDaMisterL Posted March 12, 2017 Developer Share Posted March 12, 2017 There'll likely be a sticky thread explaining how to do it in detail, so that's also something to look forward to.

Although the minimum requirements might change, I doubt that's how they plan to fix it. Since it's only in alpha, they are probably more focus on fixing bugs / getting new features added vs performance.

Vilda Posted March 13, 2017 Share Posted March 13, 2017 I am hoping for at least some new content and pump fix. Fix for all fluids problems would be probably asking too much.

Adding some ram to your rig is one of the easiest and cheapest things to do. Most devices come with 8gb ram nowadays anyway don't they? I only have 8 gigs of ram and i've had no issues. Occasionally the game will lag hard when opening menu and quitting, but other than that i haven't had any issues Link to comment https://forums.kleientertainment.com/forums/topic/75819-how-can-i-get-a-preview-version-on-march-15/#findComment-883802 Share on other sites More sharing options...
Beercules Posted March 15, 2017 Share Posted March 15, 2017 I have 64GB of ram in one of my rigs and the game still lags hardcore. The game needs to go thru some optimization but at 3440 x 1440 with a 1080GTX the game runs fine. 8GB of ram should be the absolute minimum memory any modern "GAMING" computer should have, 16GB would be a recommendation but I dont think it will resolve any preformance issues. I hope everyone here isnt holding their breath for the release today, I would imagin we would have heard something by now if they had planned to release it today but I hope I'm wrong.

Isn't Klei based out of Vancouver, BC? It's still only 7 AM out there. I wasn't going to give up hope for a release today for another 4 hours or so. Someone correct me if I'm wrong but didn't the alpha release around 12 PM Central time, 10 AM Pacific?

As someone who previously lived in Vancouver, I know for a fact no one does anything until noon except for Wake & Bake, so we might get something in the afternoon but as I said before I hope no one is holding their breath waiting.
