Playtest is Better With Discord! Community, Modding, Official, War Dust League!
Hello Playtesters,
Take a look on Discord at the support and community of War Dust (the parent game of Playtest). It is also important that Playtesters join the Official Discord Server to communicate about the current Playtest build. Scroll down and look for "beta branch" section to ask questions or give suggestions.
Discord Servers are where you can take your War Dust (and Playtest) experience to the next level. So much is waiting for you to discover, and so many friendly War Dust players are ready to greet you on Discord.
There is one Official Discord Server and three player-led Discord Servers to turbo-charge your War Dust experience.

Welcome to War Dust VR Playtest!
Hello everyone,
Time to download and play the War Dust Playtest! Get ready to fight on the newest experimental battlefields as War Dust evolves and improves.
We are starting strong right out of the gate! Our first test is to stress test the current Playtest build.
We are asking you to participate and also recruit an army of testers to tryout the newest builds for added/changed game mechanics, bugs, server stress, suggestions, ideas, logs, feedback, depending on what is needed at the moment! So, testing is for those who are flexible and ready to play hard, but also communicate with us along the way.
War Dust Playtest app will also occasionally combine testers and regular War Dust players to create massive battles in order to stress test the servers and see how the game responds under heavy loads. Being a War Dust Playtester will have a lot of advantages and unique VR experiences, so join us for a new adventure!
Just visit the War Dust VR Store page and click on the "Request Access" button. For the next number of days the game build being tested is open and playable and everyone is instantly approved! After the initial trial period it will be closed most of the time (only opened for special testing), so if you want immediate access to test out WD, now is the time.
- For those that like to help us catch the bugs. Now it’s possible to add a description of the issue when submitting a bug report with a space bar. Just use your keyboard and click the submit button. Thank you in advance!!
- Now it’s also possible to damage vehicles with standard guns. Each vehicle have different damage factor (to be tweaked in the future)
-Skin vehicles will have basic marks on the body depending on actual damage.
-Added skid marks
