Test Centers
This is what has been on my mind, and has kind of worried me about the upcoming publish, I feel it may not get proper testing ground, and the right kind of feedback.
I think alot of people realize that the test center isnt a good testing ground for these changes and people wont give that great of feedback. Lets look at this, log onto test center, what do you see.. go to any Fel gate, and look at the char names and guild names, and the kind of trash talking that goes on. People just go there cause they can do whatever they want, say what they want and figure out exploits for the next pub. There really isnt a whole lot of positive constructive feedback mostly because of this. Then when you dont have the idiots doing that, you have the others that just log on to see what kind of stuff they can make with kits, build a suit with arties they would never attain and thats pretty much it. Who goes there to do ACTUAL playing..Who goes there to do a champ spawn with a group and see how these new changes work for them, or who goes and does peerless bosses, or doom???? What they should do is make a sort of Beta that is closely monitored and littered with some sort of feedback opportunities.. Without these measures, we may get a really bad system implimented without knowing exactly what we're getting into. What do you all think?? |

Re: Test Centers
When people from Siege went to Test Center to test publishes, before we had our own Test Center of course.. we always ran off to a land mass that was empty and free of the Test Center scum that hang out there and play "rules free" daily.
For PvP based publishes.. I suggest heading to the area outside of Wrong.. that's where most people who are genuinely attempting to test PvP balances hang out.

Re: Test Centers
Well Dude, when P41 comes onto the test center you can PM me and we can get a few people together and do a champ spawn.

Re: Test Centers
I've beta tested a lot of games and you always get that type in there you just have to ignore them and try to work the game and report what you find. If they get at least a couple of good testers reporting to them its worth it. I just look at the rest a load testers

Re: Test Centers
I recently had a chat with Wilki about this very problem.
I told him flat out that I am surprised they get any feed back at all from any mature person *regardless of age. He said they were working on trying to do something about that sort of thing.

Re: Test Centers
Well, I play the test more than my home(Lake Superior) Because My normal account was hacked, and i lost about 30 mill and the HOM GM's And Dev's said they couldn't do anything, But thats beside the point. I am mainly on the test to PVP but every once in a while ill make a blue get a group and do doom to see how well i am against Monster's, And quite frankly I do think it should be moniter'd allitle better with all the trash talking it is only a game!
