AkashaTheMaid Posted Wednesday at 06:05 AM Report Posted Wednesday at 06:05 AM I want to start playing 1.22 with all the new content, but I don't really want to risk any errors/bugs in the unstable version incase something goes off. Do we have a date or estimate to when 1.22 will be released on a stable build?
williams_482 Posted Wednesday at 02:15 PM Report Posted Wednesday at 02:15 PM There is no official estimate. Based on how things have gone in the past the official release will probably, but not definitely, happen in the next couple weeks. You can always download an unstable version and start a new world just to get a feel for the new mechanics, and potentially keep that world on the final release if nothing really major changes with world generation. That's what I and many others are doing. 1
Maelstrom Posted Wednesday at 02:34 PM Report Posted Wednesday at 02:34 PM Taking 1.21 as an example; the first rc released on July 22. The first stable release was Sept. 9. Looks like about 6 weeks which is historically typical for this game. 1.19 was also about 6 weeks from first rc to first stable release. 1.20 is an extreme outlier as the dev team had to pivot to address performance due to a 300% increase in sales, so we won't talk about Bruno. Given the game's release history I'd expect a stable version to be out in five weeks; around mid-April. 1 1

Glad someone actually did their research!
Maelstrom Posted Wednesday at 05:02 PM Report Posted Wednesday at 05:02 PM I've been going through this intolerable waiting period since 1.15. It's great to see the pre drop and read all the detailed updates, but then wait weeks for the rc's to start dropping. I appreciate that Tyron and Co. take their time to get it down well, but the anticipation is hell. 1
