Hi Everyone! Star Citizen Alpha 3.18 is nearly out the door and on the live servers. As we mentioned earlier this week in This Week in Star Citizen, we'd like to team up with you for the final push. Over the weekend we are planning to run some critical stress tests on the PTU, starting on Friday. We're putting out the call for as many of you as possible to grab your sword, bow, axe, Pico plushie, or whatever else you've got on hand, and join us! This will greatly assist with gathering crucial data that will help us tackle any final remaining stability issues before live release, which we're hoping to achieve next week. During this playtest, there isn't a specific testing focus, other than to play in the Persistent Universe on the PTU servers at the times listed below. Keep an eye out, as you'll likely see many of us gallivanting around too. We plan on kicking off with 1 hour of testing on Friday at 8pm Central US Time (02:00 UTC Saturday) and then doing multiple tests throughout the weekend for 1 hour each. Playtest Schedule Each test will run for 1 hour each, starting at the times listed below.
