PC Alpha 19 Dev Diary

[jdzane]

I assume you're in the Eastern time zone? They said around noon CST, which is 1400 EDT.

Ummmm, no.  CST is only 1 hour behind EST.... So yeah

It will be A19 experimental. You have to opt in the latest_experimental unstable build to access it.

In Steam:

Right click on 7 Days to Die.

Choose Properties.

Choose the Betas tab.

From the drop down menu, choose "latest_experimental unstable build" and you will be all set to go, once they post the new build of course.

I hope I got that right!

Wait... A19 isn't going to be on the "normal" build?  We have to opt in to the beta to get access?

i live in Florida! and i live in EST 

and it is was suppose to come out at 1:00 and its 1:50

im just crossing my fingers that they are just optimizing it

CST is one hour behind EST, yes.

However, we are in Daylight Savings Time, and CST is two hours behind EDT. So if the devs literally meant CST then this would be true.

a19 experimental is opt in. when they release stable it will be as normal

You are exactly right. 

 

[DaVegaNL]

They didn't say which year..

 

[Adam the Waster]

They didn't say which year..

Year 2132

the earth is just a ocean and we live under the sea! 

all the AAA studios where over thrown by the smaller ones!

and the Fun pimps finally releases A19 

 

[Sir Negan]

So how long does it usually take for a alpha update like this to be released on normal  instead of beta opt in ?

It's variable based on discovered bugs, but a week-two weeks is normal realm of happening

 

[jdzane]

once we're opted in, how often does steam refresh itself looking for updates?

 

[Alpha1313]

Is it actually likley that it will update today?

 

[Roby94]

[fish77]

So how long does it usually take for a alpha update like this to be released on normal  instead of beta opt in ?

a18 took about 3 weeks from the experimental to the first stable version

All depends on how many issues and bugs there are
