With a surge of new players jumping in, we hit double our usual traffic… and things got exciting fast! The [b]Refining Test[/b] brought a ton of new recipes and crafting opportunities to explore. Players immediately dove in, experimenting with combinations, sharing discoveries, and even unearthing some unexpected bugs. The feedback you provided is already shaping future updates, and we couldn’t be more grateful. On the technical side, the servers held up under the increased load – mostly! However, we did experience a few hiccups, including a space zone crash and a mass disconnect event that briefly sent everyone to the void. Additionally, the infamous “Player Character” bug made an unwelcome return, causing some returning players to start fresh. But in true Stars Reach style, the community stepped up in force! Veterans became mentors, guiding newcomers through the galaxy’s challenges, helping those forced to restart, and making everyone feel right at home. This kind of teamwork is what makes this community truly out of this world. Teamwork FTW! As the day wrapped up, one thing was clear: no one wanted to log off. The passion, creativity, and dedication from our testers are the fuel that keeps us pushing to make Stars Reach even better. We’re blown away by the ideas, stories, and camaraderie you bring to this universe. Thank you to everyone who joined this playtest and helped us push the boundaries of what Stars Reach can be. Your contributions mean the galaxy to us, and we can’t wait to see what’s next. Want to help shape the galaxy?
