It may not be rocket science, but it is very tedious. I was thanking the beta testers for the terrific job they do.Īnd not that it matters to this discussion, but I find my job very rewarding. I do not believe I was… ummmm… complaining in any form. I did not say I was a beta tester for SG. What I do hear about is any issues that made it out to the users. When a new product is released to our users I never get a thank-you from the new users for doing a great job, for fixing the myriad of issues they never see, or for making suggestions that make the product more user-friendly. I’ve been a professional beta tester for the last 3 1/2 years. If it’s a thankless job to you then stop being part of beta and quit your ■■■■■■■■.Īlthough you didn’t use a quote link to quote me, I’m assuming this remark is pointed towards me? If not, my apologies for stepping into the wrong discussion.
Plenty of people would love to be in the beta and see what’s next and play around with the new features. “Being a beta player is a thankless job”. I wish it were different but that is the only way to place high. Like i said before the advantage is knowing how it’s scored, being able to save the items, having a strategy, and unfortunately you have to be willing to replay a ton. It obviously isn’t that big of an advantage (especially now that the scoring was removed and they aren’t replaying old events). Frankly dator and myself have won legendary 7 of the last 8 events not having beta. We can’t really get back those past events that may have been unfair. I ended up not really trying for it but I definitely wasn’t going to be the top tester and try to win it.
Morally I did not see it right to run the new event with the small chance I would compete. I know a lot of people pay it forward and give valuable feedback, make event boss sheets for everyone, and one even posted the “mystery of the match bonus”. It could be too little too late? I still look at the past as unfair but I do honestly believe removing scores and not having past events in beta will stop the ridiculous unfair advantage.
That thread got out of hand and lots of things were said that shouldn’t have been. I said then and I still believe that it is very fishy when the top beta testers are the top in real game. I absolutely agree that it has been abused in the past. I was one of the ones that raised a big stink in beta about the events.
