On Thursday, September 11 between 5 and 7pm PST, Second Life Residents will have the opportunity to visit the world of tomorrow. Better mapping and tracking, improved terrain and groups, faster servers, and the all the bumpy-shiny eye candy you can handle – see it for yourself while helping us to assess performance and stamp out bugs so that 1.1 can be optimized prior to its release.
The focus of this test is really simple: whether or not you crash. No need to fill out other bug reports yet.
This sneak preview will take place in a facsimile of some familiar parts of Second Life – you’ll recognize your surroundings, but changes made here won’t affect the real Second Life. Uploads and money are likewise divorced from reality – so spend and build to your heart’s content.
Enjoy your sneak peek at the future, and stay tuned for additional opportunities to visit 1.1 Beta before the official launch.
Just go to http://www.secondlife.com/preview any time between 5 and 7pm PST on Thursday, September 11 and follow the instructions.
