Community patch test mode
Play the patches you've been asking for.
Dreadnought is a private test mode where the fixes and balance changes players want are applied for real — then tested together, in your own rooms, before anyone argues about them in theory.
From request to real test
- 01
Propose
Post the change you want in the Forum — a fix, a rebalance, a quality-of-life tweak.
- 02
Patch
Picked proposals are built into the Dreadnought test mod and announced in Notice.
- 03
Test together
Host or join a room from the launcher. The relay connects everyone — no port forwarding.
- 04
Feedback
Report what worked and what broke. Good changes stay, bad ones are rolled back.
Why Dreadnought
Community-picked patches
The patch list comes from player requests, not from a roadmap.
Private rooms, zero setup
Rooms go through our relay, so hosting works behind any router.
Separate saves
The test mod keeps its own save folder. Your regular characters are never touched.
Tiny launcher
A small installer with no background updater. When a new build ships, Notice tells you.
Requirements
- Windows 10 / 11 (64-bit)
- Your own licensed copy of the base game, installed through its official launcher
- Sign in to the official launcher at least once a month
A private test, on purpose
This is a small, non-commercial test community. Play is offline / private rooms only — never take a modified client online.
