[NLZ] No Loading Zones - join the playtest! ๐ŸŽฎ

[p]Hello, miners! ๐Ÿ‘‹

We have recently started messing around with getting rid of the Loading Zones that were annoying you for years. We want to run a small playtest and give you a sneak peek at what it could look like.

๐Ÿ‘‰ Important information:[/p]
  • [p]This playtest focuses strictly on technical aspects (this rework may cause increased RAM usage and occasional crashes) and will last till 8th February[/p]
  • [p]It's an old version of the game from over half a year (there is no DLC4 and saves won't work)[/p]
  • [p]This build is a test version to check if it works on every PC. Making it fully playable will still take few months, but you can speed it up filling out the survey below ๐Ÿ‘‡ [/p]
[p]
โ— Playing on you current saves might damage them and render useless. โ—
