[h2]What's next after version 1.0?[/h2]

Immediately following release, we are going to begin working on a smaller patch to further refine version 1.0 according to player feedback. Even though we have done lots of testing to get ready for release, it's always possible that new issues are found, and we are prepared for that.

Outside of short term plans, we will continue to improve and update Deadside for as long as we have a community to support. Leaving early access won’t be changing that. So let us know what you would like to see in future updates! While the focus might be on the release now, we are always looking to the community for ideas on future content.

[h2]Thanks for reading, enjoy version 1.0![/h2]

[h2]Hello Deadsiders![/h2]

Some server maintenance is required to prepare for our 1.0 launch later today. Here is what you can expect:

• At 1pm CET / 4am Pacific, all servers will be temporarily closed for maintenance to prepare for the release
  
• Private servers may be unavailable until the update is released, you may experience “version mismatch”
  
• At 6pm CET / 9am Pacific, the official release begins!
  

[h2]⚠️Warning:[/h2]
During the patch deployment, servers may be temporarily unavailable. Game client update is required.



The release of version 1.0 to the live servers will require a wipe. All items, bases, safezone storage and player inventories will need to be reset for the update to function correctly on release.

[h2]See you at launch![/h2]

[h2]Hello Deadsiders![/h2]

[h3]We are excited to announce that Deadside will be leaving Early Access on December 5th, 9am Pacific Time![/h3]

Thank you to everyone who has been participating in our ongoing public test, and to our dedicated community who has stuck with us throughout early access. Your feedback has played a huge part in crafting the awesome game we have today.

This is a huge milestone for us at Bad Pixel, and the path to get here has not been easy. Building a game of this scale has its challenges, and that's not considering some of the tough real world problems that the team has had to overcome during this journey. So much work has been put into our game over the past 5+ years, and with the coming 1.0 update, we are ready to bring all the pieces together to share an awesome experience with the world!

[h3]So what does this mean going forward?[/h3]

In the short term, continuing public testing is very important. For those who are unaware, we are currently running a large public test of our 1.0 update that you can participate in right now! You can find out how to participate in this post, while also getting to look at some of the exciting features included in this gigantic update. Public testing has already been very productive so far, thanks to our community, we have been able to identify important issues to fix.

In the long term, we will continue to improve and update Deadside for as long as we have a community to support. Leaving early access won’t be changing that. So let us know what you would like to see in future updates! While the focus might be on the release now, we are always looking to the community for ideas on future content.
