How’s DRE 2022 Alpha?

So the Alpha has now been open for one month and I thought I’ve give you a short update on how things are going.

I, and my guinea pigs, have been hard at it with 20 updates in the last month. We’ve been chipping off the hard edges, especially in the beginning. Things are starting to work well now, so I’ve had a chance to sit in the cockpit myself to do some driving. Believe it or not: when launching a beast like DRE 2022, there are so many things to do, that just sitting down to do some racing and testing it that way hasn’t been possible until now.

 

DRE 2022 app

In my own experience, the stars are aligning: Radio comms effects, overhauled code, and logic, a natural queue of DRE speaks being prioritized on the fly, and all the other changes make DRE 2022 feel much more like a real racing engineer.

Roadmap

For the launch, I still got a few features to add to DRE, but I also want to get it out in your hands asap, so more features will be added down the line. Actually, I’ve recently created a roadmap that you should check out and VOTE on. This is your chance to have your say at which features I’ll prioritize.

Alpha Invites

In terms of Alpha invites, we’re now about 40 people working on DRE, and I’ll slowly invite more as we go as DRE improves. I’m so grateful to the guys taking their time to not only test the latest and greatest, but even produce nice feedback and bug reports.
