Do number of hours played factor into who's chosen for the closed beta?

So yes and no, we want to select as a wide spectrum of players as possible.

So we do want to have players that have played maybe thousands of hours of Satisfactory, finished the game, completely seen everything.

We also want to test it on people that are starting out or in between, and also players that have never played the game.

So it doesn't really matter how many hours you've played, but we do care how many hours you've played so we can sort of make our selection.

But it doesn't matter how many hours you have when you sign up, so just sign up.
