It's uhh, definitely not if they don't have a firm date with three weeks left in the year.

Just delay this to Spring instead of working over Christmas to rush out a limited closed beta on December 31st...

Maybe they wanna do it during the holidays. Seems like it would be crappy for the staff though

how long will the beta last? i swear if it'll only be up for 2 weeks i will be furious. we didn't wait this long only to be able to play it in 2 weeks - a lot of us also have full-time jobs.

the way they've handled this beta has been very disappointing. for more than a year all they kept on saying was beta 2018...that was since last year, I think. of course people are always gonna ask because they don't even give us any window. had they said December 2018 or something then that would have been the end of that and we would not have been asking and anticipating for so many times throughout a year...there are 2 weeks left and all they ever have said up to this point is what they have been saying since 2017.

Almost as if they meant 2018. They don't owe anyone a beta when they expect one. If they make 2018, then they're on course.

Someone should tell them there are only 3 weeks left in the year, and that includes the week between Christmas and New Year's eve :)

This being said, can't wait for it!

is it so hard to give a window instead of saying coming- 2018 all throughout the whole year? we are 2 weeks away from 2019, and people have spent the past 11 months asking MM and all we ever got was - "it's coming".

Gravity Rush 2's demo was announced as late as December 21st a couple of years back and released the next day, I still believe.

I've been playing the beta almost every night for the past 24 years or so. Feels like I can spend 7 hours on it and it goes by like nothing. I just wish I knew how to control everything a little better.

I can't imagine they'd be saying this if it wasn't coming this year but... there's not much time left. I need them to drop it like right now.

If they give a window and don't meet it the whole ugly internet riots. They gave a window of 2018 so let's see if they make it.

Patience solves this problem. Why ask all year?

Only last week, people were saying Ashen and Below wouldn't release in 2018. There's still a chance for a stealth release just in time for us all to have a play around with on Boxing Day.

To clarify, the tweet was most likely posted by Tom Dent, the community manager, who is just re-iterating what he's allowed to say currently. He's active in the discord most days as well.

They really need to stop promising this. I get that the game is a really ambitious and challenging project, but the beta's been coming since 2015 and it's still clearly not close.

Furious to be able to play a work in progress game for free? A beta is a beta. They can do it for 1 weekend if they want. Wait for the full game otherwise
