End of open playtest round #4

Hello survivors,

today our playtest round #4 is ending. Thank you so much for taking part. We received over 3.000 completed feedback forms and at times had over 400 players at the same time. Almost 100 ideas were added to opendecks by the community and on top of that we received almost 500 ingame submissions. Feel free to take a look.

[h2]So how did the playtest go?[/h2]

We are very pleased that the gameplay experience was already smooth and stable for the vast majority of you – this is great validation for our work so far. At the same time, we are grateful for the reports of crashes and other issues that some players encountered. This is precisely the purpose of a playtest: to identify these hurdles early on and iron them out, ensuring the demo and the full release offer an even better experience.

Thanks to your help, we were able to deploy a total of five patches and hotfixes during the testing phase. Our primary focus was on improving stability and performance, but we also implemented requested quality-of-life enhancements such as map stats on the loading screen, inventory access at the merchant and an overhaul for the item tooltips.
