September playtest status
The announced September playtest window ended on 14 September at 08:00 UTC. It was a specially prepared, two-hour build.
Access has a window
The test began on 2 September, with access granted in waves. Registering interest did not guarantee admission. That historical invitation is not a current availability claim.
What test feedback can tell us
Reports can identify questions to recheck: tutorial clarity, roads, supply, or a reproducible bug. They cannot establish whether that issue persists in the unreleased EA build.
