STALCRAFT open test server

Information about the open test server

An Open Test Server (abbreviated "OTS") is a special server used by developers to test various changes or updates on many willing players with various computer and network hardware specs and game skills.

The OTS is designed to help identify non-obvious problems, errors and defects of various kinds, which cannot be found in a short period of time with little effort.

Thanks to the efforts of the OTS members, with each major update the players on the main servers will receive a more stable and better version of the game, and the development team will be able to obtain more useful information for quicker fixes of identified bugs.
