Phase III is complete!
v1.2.0 is now available to all beta testers. If no game-breaking issues are found in the next two days, v1.2.0 will be released to all customers.Phase IV: Multiplayer Testing
Please hold onto your beta copies; Phase IV will continue after the patch is released.We'll update the Beta periodically as needed to test out new improvements, so if you're interested to see what's coming down the pipe that's a good way to try them out. This forum will be here as well, so that you can discuss beta features you see. Our focus from here on will be making multiplayer the best experience it can possibly be.

The pain will only be passing, you should survive the process.
For now, it is time for more... Experiments.
EDIT: Despite my latter post, the Quick Save randomly disappears and then reappears again, with no particular pattern that I can detect so far. I tried reinstalling the beta, but it hasn't corrected the problem.
I have it on good authority that one of our top guys is working on patch notes as we speak.
@Sylvus_Moonbow
I did some investigating and found a fix. We'll get that in before we release anything.
EDIT: See my former post, as the Quick Save is somehow not "saving," despite having reinstalled the beta.
[spoiler] [/spoiler]
-The journal is still very buggy (i.e: entries disappearing, then reappearing, edits not saving and then suddenly appearing, etc.).
-Montaron will leave your party (and take Xzar with him) if you attempt to talk to him while he is in your party, even if you only just recruited him.
Edit: Also @SharGuideMyHand this isn't the last patch for BGEE, even in the OP it says so. Also at least the journal thing is already broken on live so it's not like this patch makes thing worse. Quite on the contrary this patch will improve the live version in huge number of ways.
Edit2: And I tested the Montaron leaving thing, and he definitely didn't leave with Xzar in my game at least. In fact that too worked better than on live. On live it just says "Montaron has nothing to say to you" in red text, on beta when you try to talk to him it says one of his selection banters.
Those are bugs for sure, but do not qualify as "critical". The live version likely has those bugs too - as well as a miriad others.
The patch is already long past overdue, and to delay it any longer makes little sense at this point.
