It's 50 minutes of answering player submitted questions. With over 980 questions submitted, we couldn't answer them all. However, many questions were duplicated so we answered a good portion. Thank you to everyone who submitted questions, and to MrNJersey for hosting!

We continue to work on a bunch of minor updates that we are excited about, including the missions content updates that we discussed recently, some quality assurance updates, new components, features, fixes and minor improvements. We are also working on weapons DLC, and the natural disasters major update, as well as another frequently requested major update that is rumoured to involve a new biome! (Watch the Q&A video above for hints!). We are also looking at a new crash reporting tool (did you know that Steam crash reports only work with 32 bit?) and the new issue tracker (apologies that it is so far behind schedule).

Our plan is to continue to close these updates out and release as minor and major updates on the usual schedule. This has also given us chance to reflect on the update schedule for Stormworks, and the question of how minor updates fit in. We are genuinely unsure if we should continue to release minor updates every 2 weeks, or build these changes into the major updates which could become bigger, more significant mega-updates every 3 to 4 months (but with regular bug fix updates).

What do you think? We are very open to player feedback and no decision is made yet. Much love <3, The Stormworks Developers
