Alpha 3 release date?

[Chaplain]

I presume the 4% is in case of a short circuit followed by an eclipse with a solar flare on top just as the 15 or so heavily armed raiders milling around outside decide to come knocking on your formerly turret guarded front door?

Oh right, that's just me projecting my last game.  At least that night the remaining colonists didn't starve due to the crop blight that hit the day before.  I'm just hoping Release 3 leads to less situations that look like The Jungle and Heart of Darkness had a child which looked at The Road and said, "You call that depressing?  Get a load of this."

Alpha 3 is being tested at the moment.
Alot of bugs being found and almost as many bugs being fixed atm.
We still got a headstart on tynan (-;
New additions look awsome. And i can tell you that some of the newer mods are awsome.

So you need a few more days before the big day...? or just hours...? Seconds...?
Oh it's done...? great... we are waiting :p ^^

Well Tynan needs time (-;

We are just handing him bugs. He is working very hard to fix them. And its hard to say how long it takes. Sometimes a fixing a bug causes more bugs. Sometimes fixing 1 bug takes very long. You never know. But at the moment Tynan pushes regular internal builds to testers. So the moment of release is getting closer and closer. Might be a week might be 2 weeks.

But like he said 96% chance of it being april

hehe i can understand that..

But bugfixing doesnt go that fast. And Tynan takes pride in releasing decent builds (-:

More importantly, it's a big update and I lost a lot of time to technical screwups and spending a week at GDC.

Time at GDC is never lost..
Its called networking (-:

The update that changed the Rimworld.
I'm really excited after seeing the patch notes. Been playing non-stop trying to keep my 'skills' sharp.

[Thunder Rahja]

Well if you think about it, every alpha release is a big update.

*hfffffft*
Software bugs just... signify the flawed nature of man and how a man bites more than what his mind can chew.
*FOOOOH*
