We’re getting closer to testing SimplePlanes 2, and we’re now opening signups for anyone interested in joining the playtest once it begins.
This isn't the official start of the playtest just yet — we're still working hard to get things ready. But we want to start gathering a pool of potential testers so that, when the time comes, we can begin bringing people in gradually.
The plan is to invite testers in small batches at first, then open things up more as we go. We're aiming for a wide range of experience levels and playstyles to help us test from different angles. That includes longtime players, casual builders, mobile veterans trying SP2 on PC for the first time — everyone brings something valuable to the table.
If you’re interested in helping us test the game and provide feedback, you click the link at the bottom of this post. It asks for some basic info about your hardware, your experience with SimplePlanes, and what you’re most excited about in SP2. It should only take a few minutes.
One important note: signing up doesn’t guarantee you’ll be invited. We expect more signups than we’ll be able to accommodate, especially in the early phases. But we’ll be reviewing responses regularly and bringing in new testers over time.
And if you haven't already, make sure you wishlist SimplePlanes 2 on Steam!
@jamesPLANESii
Do you serve in a contract army or a conscript army? I remember that you have been in the army for quite a long time, so I assume you are a contract soldier. I am a conscript and we have different rules.
@jamesPLANESii
In general, smartphones are illegal in the army of my country. If they notice it, they can easily take it away and never return it, so there is no point in a good smartphone, I have my old phone here, which is enough for YouTube or messengers. And I don’t really like playing on mobile devices. Also I don’t have enough time for games.
@LitoMikeM1 What about Sprocket?
Just watched the Blue Angels IMax film. Major Chad would fit right in lol.
@Graingy aw shucks dies
@Hahahahaahahshs didn't go so well for sprocket
@LitoMikeM1 alr
Signed up!
@WaterFlavouredSpitfires it says somewhere in the end that it has to stay confidential until further notice including any involvement in it
I'm the 150th.
@jamesPLANESii You're a kiwi (TIL lol), they might have different rules in whatever military they're in. Or duties, for that matter.
@V Considering that this site is the exact same, it probably wouldn't be an issue.
Waiting for it :)
Oh yeah its coming!
@V
(I'm sure even builds have similar concerns, but let's put that aside for a moment...)
If serious consideration is given, it would be appropriate to make it visible only to the user himself/herself, like WarThunder's user skin.
@PlanariaLab id imagine that would only last a few days before something inappropriate would be uploaded.
@Hahahahaahahshs
It would be even better if it supported VRM format.
@jamesPLANESii, Well I don't really have anything to argue lol, I just assumed he's busy though still interested in participating.
@AndrewGarrison Are Playtesters allowed to reveal details about SP2 or is it not allowed.
@jamesPLANESii I'd suspect operational requirements through his country
@jamesPLANESii jamiplany you’re in the miwitwary
@AndrewGarrison darnnn i don’t have a google account 😭
@ShiroNeko I'm in the military and I have loads of time
Signed up! Given that my irl job is software testing, it'd be great to put my knowledge to use on my favourite game's sequel as well lol
