Seems that .42 has started closed external testers so that is good news
The new lighting seems oppressive and looks like night raids are probably going to require flashlights to avoid danger.
Nice seeing some basement gameplay - first thought was looking like 3rd person Rsident Evil( from the sanatorium video) and the distribution getting tweeks and wonder how they are going to tighten up the combat
Besides all the other stuff, I am really liking the reading materials and how its being implemented.
Indeed, I guess they are keeping their word on trying to keep everyone informed on .42 progress and trying to keep the hype while trying to control it.
Looking like early next year, I am guessing,they might release the unstable beta publicly if the closed betas came back positive.
