Yet I did take part in beta testing of FF before it went into early access. Beta testing is different with Crate. It lasted a few months before the game went into EA. Alpha testing for them is what they do before we even get our hands on it.
In case you hadn’t noticed there are people here with the Praetoian role - this indicates that they are closed beta testers for Crate. We test the expansions for GD before they get released although there is some public testing of patches as well that others can take part in if they wish. We also closed beta tested the recent DLC for FF.
Beta Testing doesn’t happen until a public distribution of the code is sampled across a wider array of machines than the developer is capable of maintaining.
‘Early Access’ is simply a dirtbag lawyer-mouth way of devaluing the public’s input.
The volume of back and forth in the Bug Reporting forum should give you cause to pause and reflect on your statements.
And question the effectiveness of Crate’s system.
The Mass Die-Offs people were seeing at choke points is something that should have been caught by Alpha (much less Beta).
Please, show me where I complain about bugs.
Because, I don’t.
I complain about corporate-culture ruining the gaming industry, the same way it has ruined everything else it touches.
You have misread, and misinterpreted, my words.
School more, gibber less.
I have not. I did not say you were complaining about bugs specifically. You’re just complaining in general and it’s not constructive feedback, so literally the only thing it achieves is annoy people (probably including yourself).
I usually try not to reply to these kind of things, but you were being especially rude. Please find something better to do with your time.
