However the entire Biome Progression and Storm systems, these are zero's and add nothing into the game.

For you. I like them and am currently playing with 200% storms. I have read of plenty of people who like them. Not every feature is for you and if you read the stable release notes you will see plenty of changes that have nothing to do with biome hazards or storms.

When No Man's Sky released a fishing update, I did not care because I don't want to fish, but I just moved on and played the parts of the game I like.
 
I been enjoying both the biome progression changes and the storms. I like that a storm can roll in just before I leave my main base and forces me to change my plans until it passes through. It’s the unpredictability of when they come around and the need to have a backup plan for when they do.

The only thing I didn’t like was re-adding the biome loot stage bonuses after experimental first dropped, but I was able to mod them back out again.

Sure. I knew it, but could not say anything.

We have been planning an early release for about a week, but we did not know if we would find a show stopper bug or that console approvals would be finished by today. Last night some of the PS5 builds failed, but it was some odd issue with the build server.

Just be aware that this will not change the order in which you progress with traders. For example, if you set it so that the snow is the second in line, when you finish with Rekt, you'll have to travel through the snow to get to the burnt where Jen is. Which means if you have biome progression turned on, it might be a difficult journey.

I gave this some thought, and I'll probably set it up so that snow->forest->burnt->desert->wasteland. So progressing to the snow biome will eventually require backtracking, but by the time you're ready for the snow biome you'll likely have a faster vehicle...so not really a issue.

But doing it in that order prevents you from having to skip through any biomes if progression is turned on.
