    I don't want to rush you guys, but I am very, very, tired of the crashy Preview 2 with a screen that blanks-out the game view every 4-5 minutes.

    EDIT: There's an update below. 3rd week of November 2016

    Technically, it's past the first half of November. Still waiting on all these experimental features to be pushed along.

    There's so much potential that it hurts to wait.

    Johaness mentioned in another thread that it's based on 5.5. Hopefully a more stable version of the beta than have been released recently - I and everyone I know that has tried it haven't had a good time, lots of bugs and problems so far.

    Can't wait for preview 3! Really excited to see the next phase of development on these features. Fingers crossed it only breaks some of the stuff I've been working on! :)

    We won't be seeing anything till after Thanksgiving break. Assuming QA goes fine, I imagine first week of December at best.

    I think we'd all prefer a non-crashy, regularly updated build over a sooner, unstable one everyday. Take your time...
