unstable not downloading b42 beta?

[Zerotheliger]

i selected the unstable back up first like the news articles are saying in the betas category but the game didnt update at all am i missing something? screen rant and others were saying you can access the latest build right now.

I've seen that Screen Rant article, they got it wrong. Build 42 hasn't hit unstable yet.

"For those who don't mind a few bugs or the potential of their save file being corrupted, there is a way to access some of the new work that the team has been doing on the game early. The Project Zomboid test branch is a special server set up by the developers that enables people to try new features before they are officially rolled out in the game. Though Build 42 is not currently on the unstable branch, it will be released there first before going live."

It does then go on to explain how to join the test branch, but, it does state that it's not currently on the test branch.. unsure if that disclaimer was edited in since the article was posted or not.

AI is writing these articles now. I was excited too. Cant wait for 42 I'm so excited for all the new stuff.

I had seen it too and gave it a try to check, but the article was definitely mistaken and didn't include the disclaimer when I read it.

Yeah for future reference, AI written articles like that and presumably most of Screen Rant should not be trusted. Or just wait until we say it because we'll make sure it's heard when it's ready. :D
