The answer to every 'when' question is always the same: it's when we think it's ready. It's an alchemy of players in the PTU now testing and developers working behind the scenes to find and smash bugs and resolve issues, and there's no easy way to predict when everything just kind of coalesces. It's when we think it's ready. It'll move into the next step, whatever that next step is.

Once it's stable enough, with some of the stuff that we're doing.

And going back to that second question about whether all the bugs are being fixed, 'once it's stable enough' is the absolute right word there, because remember, every level of Star Citizen, even live, is a testing environment.

Well, think about it like onions. Onions have layers. So we're just peeling off layers. As soon as we get things stable enough, then it might be revealing other gameplay issues, and then we fix those, and then it might reveal other crashes that we're dealing with. So onions or parfaits, whichever you choose.
