- Rants and Flames (/forums/forumdisplay.php?f=30)

Not to me personally, cause i am a patient person lol... i can wait. Just saying in the context of how this has been put about needing OUR help is why i mentioned the rant of it being said we aren't needed.

I'm aware and understand. I'm mostly just making a suggestion for further testing. There are lots of guilds here that I am sure would be happy to help and I'd think it would be advantageous to exploit that. IE: Hey Div/IB/DA/TMO/PP/etc. wed like you to assist us testing this zone on this day, well be around to put you to the appropriate level.

I am sure that's what will happen once the time has come =).

The melee dmg at low level was a problem with me. taking 3 minutes to kill a level one mob cause im hitting it for 1 dmg and it's regening faster than i can dmg it.

I think everyone is waiting for the higher level zones to come into play. Right now, it's mainly the starting zone stuff with very limited post 50 content. I imagine once KC and Sebilis opens up a lot more people will show.

So you want to hit for 1 in Sebilis instead? I am sure that can be arranged.

We arent planning on making you guys grind out to 60 twice....

when higher end content comes into beta, there will be methods in place to make sure it is testable.

we know what we are doing, don't assume otherwise ;)

Actually, what I said was :

Quote:

We could shut the server down, and develop it in private at no cost. I did that for a year and a half before any of you dissidents disgraced my lands. You realize that we get the same rewards of developing this without being criticized. We could finish it up, and open it when Velious is complete.

And I meant it. Especially to the dissidents, as it was addressed. Some people construed that as me addressing each and every player.

In the very same thread, I also said this:

Quote:

Oh, I have no problem allowing all the normal people to play here.

And I meant that too. I banned the people flaming and threatening us, and things continued on as normal.

See above. if dissident { fuck directly off. } People were flaming the developers in a PATCH NOTES thread.

If people want to beta test, they will beta test. Misquotes from me should have nothing to do with that. Those who were around for the prekunark beta know my feelings on this subject.

Thanks for the work nilbog - wish you would respond to my PM's tho! =/

I've seen 40+ people on the beta server a few times. The lowest amount I've seen is 14 and that was in the dead of morning 3-4 AM EST. I'm thinking that's pretty good considering you are getting 5% or so of your normal population helping out. Of course Some of these are boxers I would imagine. It still has a while to go and it hasn't been out that long. I'm sure when word spreads a little more too some of the old school people who are waiting for kunark will head there.
