Re: Testers Team Clan?

you should put as manny good people as you can in the alpha testers group beacuse you need to really be able to test your game with the same number of people that will be playing it!

you dont want to have only 20 alpha testers because you wont know what happens when 43 people get on a server and all start dog fighting or something at the same time.

dont make the mistake that GC allways made and have too few testers and then not even listen to them and fix the bugs they point out.

I think GC could have used about 10 more testers to more effectively find bugs that we couldn't.

I remember when we would make sessions just to act like idiots, and exploit the hell out of just about everything. Yet even playing like such idiots, we couldn't always find some of the really more gamebreaking sploits.

Now, I'm not saying that tsters can find every single little bug imaginable. But I deffinately think we could have done a little bit better. Here's to hoping FS has a great and effective test team smile

We did find some pretty amusing things that I doubt anyone would have ever actually found.

Re: Testers Team Clan?

i've had both kinds of playing.
and you shouldnt expect anything else in a testing team. always testing isnt fun, you need so fun to keep going.
