Monday and Tuesday days are impossible for a release. Perhaps tomorrow or thursday and friday are the days for alpha17... I hope they will do some "body" simulations ;)

Alpha 1 was released on a Tuesday and Alpha 4 on a Monday so it's not impossible.

Looking at the release dates wednesday seems to be their most used day

Alpha1 was not update, was game alpha release, so...Anyway, Not only wednesday is the most used day, but thursday and friday are the most used date too. I counted them and wrote them down.So the high chances for release is either tomorrow or thursday/friday..

I woudn't get the update right away though. The lasr of them were plagued with bugs. Better to wait a couple of days.

By the way, those bugs were so obvious they didn't even needed us to test it. The bugbear kind. Nonetheless, IV is doing a great job. =)

Alpha 17 build uploaded on Steam 2 hours ago: http://steamdb.info/app/233450/#section_history

Release usually in 2-5 days.

Maybe they found some bugs in it? Remember Alpha 15 had a couple bug fixes that came later on and I don't think IV liked that at all...

I dont know what serious bugs they found, since mantis says that some bugs are fixed in Alpha17.
