No, but people ask, like, when is it going to be out on EA?
And the answer to that question is we have no idea.
Well, we have some idea, but we actually don't know because...
for a couple of reasons.
Update 6 is, first and foremost, not feature complete.
So there's still a couple of things that we want to work on for Update 6, and we don't know exactly how long that will take.
We usually do a round where we do a bunch of patches and bug fixes to the game, and then, okay, we're in that phase period, and then we move it over to Early Access.
But this time around, we haven't finished everything with Update 6.
Essentially, there's still a bunch of stuff that we want to tweak and fix with Update 6, and we won't be able to do that in a short amount of time this time around, because, A, what I just said isn't feature-complete.
The other thing is that we have vacation period coming up in Sweden.
So, in Sweden, it's kind of common that around July, August, like, everybody goes on vacation.
We have laws that...
essentially means that you're entitled to 25 days of annual leave in a complete like what's the word like in one in one go if you want to um but but but it's not because of like the law that we're saying like oh everyone has to go vacation like we want like we want people to go on vacation essentially like i think people at coffee stain are entitled to some vacation time um and it just so happens that that vacation period is around july august
We originally we've like postponed updates because of this.
If we can't release an update ahead of vacation period, then we won't do it, essentially.
But this time around, we felt like we kind of want to get it out of the way because otherwise we'll just keep stalling and then the game will never be finished, essentially.
So so this time around, we just said, OK, whatever, we'll release an experimental.
We're going to patch it and make it as stable as we possibly can before we go on vacation leave.
So like even on experimental, maybe it'll be good enough.
But yeah, just know if you want to play on a stable version of update 6, it probably won't be until later for a couple of months before you can actually see it on the early access branch of the game, unfortunately.
