And we anticipate in about a month or so.
I just want to single out a few things real quick that people have brought up.
So first thing is dedicated servers.
So we released dedicated servers and we said that they will be available for everyone, whether you own the game or not, available for everyone on Steam.
And it should be in your Steam library if you check the tools filter in your library list at the top there, there's a filter.
And it seems that not everyone is getting them there.
It's not appearing in the Steam library.
And, yeah, just want to let you know that that is a bug, okay?
That's something that needs to be fixed up, and we're currently chasing that down and trying to figure out what's going on there.
Hey, everyone, Future Jace here.
Just want to jump in now.
There's just been an update on the situation.
Still not really sure what's going on there.
We're still working with Valve to try to fix things up.
However, they have made a change now so that people who do own Satisfactory on Steam should have the dedicated servers in their library now.
So check that now.
But of course, we're still working with them to try to figure out what's wrong to make sure that it is available to everyone, whether you own the game on Steam or not.
But that's the current situation.
Just thought I'd throw this in real quick.
Okay, back to the video.
It is important to note here that I just want to mention again, just to make very clear, that these dedicated servers are out on Steam only at the moment.
Just because that's how it just worked out, that's not really our intention.
Our intention is to have them on Epic as well, and also an image on Docker Hub.
We're not there yet, but that's what we're working towards.
Please hold up on that.
And just another thing to know is that even if you bought the game on Epic, you can still play on dedicated servers from Steam.
That's no problem.
You don't need to buy the game again on Steam in order to use the dedicated servers.
Had some people ask about that.
Anyway, hopefully that all gets ironed out soon.
We're working pretty hard on that as well to make sure dedicated servers are, you know, easy to access for everybody.
And also there's a wiki, dedicated server wiki.
I'll put a link in the description below.
That's a living document that's being updated by community as well.
So it's already much better than it was a couple of days ago.
So do consider checking that out for all the most up-to-date information on dedicated servers.
