Cry more.

You spend 10x as much time crying on the forums than you do actually testing, digging through the wayback machine for research, etc.

You, and obviously others, would rather whine about how the beta is run than actually doing anything constructive. This post is just another fucking vagina bleed.

Learn to beta. Stop fucking crying and get shit done rather than complain about how you have to *GASP* beta test. This beta is no different than any I've ever participated in for an MMO, other than it has more retards complaining on the forums about inconsequential shit. You never see "OMG leveling is too slow" on beta forums for other games. Yet, here you pussies are..."hardcore pvpers" [You must be logged in to view images. Log in or Register.]



Edit: Added Gloinz quote that I didn't see while responding.

You talk about being constructive like you know what it means. Try giving some actual ideas rather then more criticism.

This thread is all about testing more effectively.

Trolls point fingers and say you're wrong, and then have no clue why or what a better idea would be.

We know the devs aren't all about TL;DR like most of the idiots who have no idea about what their talking about.

Try helping bro. Try it, if possible.

Beta is your chance to log in and help test and get what you've all been asking for. Test it, post the shit and get back to it.

As far as "being fixed in a timely manner", this isn't the WoW arena pvp board where you can arm-chair-cry/develop in unison to get what you want.

Well, maybe not, good job trolling them into thinking no item loot was a good idea along with an 8 level range.

There are certain bugs that can't be tested by us as players as the beta stands. A big part of it is no one knows what things should be like. We all have our own opinions on what resisted more or less, what stacked, what was classic or not. We don't have hit and miss statistics or the math behind certain mechanics.

Point being we need something to compair to... a sort of master list of how the devs want things to run and then we as beta testers can meet those goals.

Another issue is that there is too much time investment to arbitrarily test certain ideas. Classes that aren't being rolled past 40 won't get the testing they need. When people avoid pvp until they are higher level because they aren't as powerful means they don't test pvp at those levels. For classes that solo it's no big deal, but if you need to group to level and it takes you a long time to find a group, you care more about that exp you lost pvping.

You guys act like there is no other way to test things then the way you think.


Most importantly it's about making this server the best it can be and to cut down the workload piled on the dev team.

Also OP is an idiot.

I'm all about consolidated testing of summoning people to the arena and having vendors setup. People will show up on those nights for sure. Copying over the blue characters towards the end for a month would be good too.

I didn't read a lot of the crying, but EQ2 pvp beta auto level'd people.

it seemed OK /shrug
