Hello folks,

Just a quick note, we've pushed back the launch of Steel Crusade by a little less than a week, we're targeting 9/10. A couple of infrastructure issues on our end made dev work take a little longer, made it a little harder to finish some of the content.

That said, it sounds the response to the content on PTS so far has been really positive, and pretty bug-free. You can read up on the latest PTS updates here, or...


... you can watch our livestream on Friday. After work on Friday, I'll pick up the ol' livestream computer and get on PTS, try some of the new content and hang out. This'll be the first time I've played the missions since a much earlier build, so I'm pretty jazzed to see the near-final results.

Depending on my workload, I'll start sometime between 6 and 7:30 PM Pacific -- probably at 7, but maybe a bit earlier if I'm not slammed. When it does start, you'll be able to check it out here.

    Well, the non-healing thing apparently was a bug, and from what was said in the thread, not an easy one to find. And they might also be occasionally tasked to help support the upcoming launch of Delta Rising, the new STO expansion. So yeah, our friends at Cryptic, CN, and PWE are working pretty hard about now... :smile:

    Pushing things back to do them right is a wise move and worth praising.
    Good luck.

    Yay! Yes, I'm happy over a delay to fix bugs / make sure things are properly polished. Soo much better than just releasing on deadline no matter the state of things. It'll be ready when it's ready, and I look forward to that day - whether it's on the 10th as now scheduled, or even later, doesn't bother me.

    They switch the 5th Anniversary ON. So the new Anniversary costumes become available.
    And probably make an official announcement about the Anniversary in the Game News and Facebook....

    1. 9/6 is Saturday

    2. A live stream during prime time hours? Sounds like a fun game of "how many times will your internet die today". Either that, or I'll forget.
