Lol, who needs a REAL testing cycle anyways ?
Here's how you develop an MMO in 2013:
Build a rock-solid Cash Shop.
Start building the actual game.
As soon as your game is reasonably stable, announce that "Open Beta" will be starting soon.
Declare that there will be no character or server wipes once "Open Beta" starts.
Offer a wide range of "starter packs", and include "Beta Early Access" in all of them.
Open the gates and watch in delight as players rush in to play your half-finished and very buggy MMO. marvel at the huge amounts of cash they spend in your Cash Shop.
Don't worry that major dupes and exploits will be found and used. The players won't care, because the game is F2P !
Fucking Amen!! This is huge true. The biggest problem is, we are buying this behavior to them like sheep.
....Being Banned from MMORPG's forums since 2010, for Trolling the Trolls!!!
Or how even bugs/exploits that WERE reported, were simply ignored and they carried forward because they wanted their money. At times I seriously wonder if they did it intentionally to drive prices up and make a greater demand for ADs that the consumer buys via RMT through the Zen store.
It is called "whistle blowing" and is generally accepted as a way to get governments, and companies to fix problems.
Those that keep the exploit to themselves, after notification has gone to PWE, are no better than the exploiters.
Why do you have the specs to your outdated PC in your sig, just wondering?
Because it's their right to do so? If your curiosity is that easily entertained, I'm surprised you ever get a chance to play a game..Just sayin'..
The funny thing is that if there is an exploit, many will be exploiting it, and doing the right thing is a myth or an extreme outlier. If you found $1,000 dollars laying on the ground, in the middle of nowhere, you WILL pocket that money. And if you say otherwise I call BS.
People are not going to go with a disadvantage, and in the real world if one does not aggressively achieve their goals then they will be left behind while others drive forward. Banning will deter people, NOT doing the "right" thing.
I really hope people exploit the shit out of exploits every chance they get, if only just to get Craptic's heads out of their asses and stop half assing their crap. With all the bugs and exploits going on I serious wonder what the hell was done in alpha besides "Does you class do something? Great! We're done here." Game feels more like is should still be in the Closed Beta if not Alpha stage than an "Open Beta" besides of course for em just wanting their consumer's money with a subpar product.
You didn't read the posts with the Simpsons pics, didn't you? lol :P
Eh I will update the siggy when I update my pc, right now it's still letting me play most games I play maxed out or very nearly. The cards need to be replaced though lol
I will probably go with a single card this time though.
Brenics ~ Just to point out I do believe Chris Roberts is going down as the man who cheated backers and took down crowdfunding for gaming.
Posting about a bug, doop or exploit on a message board that the developers do not access is worse than doing nothing.
"Possibly we humans can exist without actually having to fight. But many of us have chosen to fight. For what reason? To protect something? Protect what? Ourselves? The future? If we kill people to protect ourselves and this future, then what sort of future is it, and what will we have become? There is no future for those who have died. And what of those who did the killing? Is happiness to be found in a future that is grasped with blood stained hands? Is that the truth?"
