Are you interested in becoming an EB Closed Beta Tester? RECRUITMENT.

I would love to help. I've done a great deal of modding with traits/ancillaries and buildings so at the very least I would probably be able to help out with that...

15 hours per week shouldn't be a problem (I'm not 100% certain though - but I can always make some time for the greater good!)

I would be honored to offer my assistance :bow:

Edit-I have a highschool education and have done a bit of freelance writing for a few websites, so I am reasonably skilled in written communication

I can offer my assistance, In college now, poly sci major, so writing papers is natural to me :P, I have a good amount of free time as well this semester. I am fairly experienced in personal modding and balancing since MTW.

Holy crap. Fastest growing thread ever.

I'd very much like to be an EB beta tester, same as before. I only work part-time at this point, thus leaving me with plenty of time, but I should be working full-time around mid-November. If this is still a workable timeframe (now until then, I mean), then I offer my help.

I can help in the beta testing. I also have have 250 GB's of free space so I can have many different versions of the game if different versions need to be tested.

I'll volunteer for such hard duties and I have learned how to do minor changes to game codes. I also have a rather indepth knowledge of the history of this period and have read classics from contemporary historians of this time period such as The Early History of Rome and I'm in the process of translating a latin Aeneid (just to prove it to you EB members Divinus Arma means weapons of war belonging/relating to the the gods). I've been able to play atleast 19 hours a week of RTR, hey better than vannila, and I'm a good balancer w/ expiriance in other gaming fields.

THE RECRUITMENT IS STILL OPEN.

No one has been selected or even considered yet. If you have not been contacted yet, you will be soon.

Thank you to everyone for your interest!:bow:

I, too would, like to actively beta-test. All this free time of mine needs to be used up. I'm also very active at the TWC, but can be active here as well.

Would welcome the challenge and have the free time. Have pretty good knowledge of moding in general ( I know the syntax of each file and what it does).

Troubleshooting skills are above average. ( Was a system admin for last 10 years. )

Have about 20-30 hours per week free atm. With more in the possible future.

Have run more then one mod of RTW and MTW in the past on my games.

Have a clean install on my HD for EB set and waiting. Been sitting there since I heard about EB.~D

Well, I don't usually post on the org. I hang out in the EB forums at TWC where my name's Artannis Wolfrunner, and was a regular at the .com for a while before RTW was released and the forums became a third world hellhole.

English is the only language I speak so I should hope I have a firm grasp of it by now. I just finished high school a couple months ago and don't leave for college till January, so I have a massive void of time to fill till then and can make time once college starts up, 15 hours won't be a problem at all.

I don't really know anything about code, but if 'minor changes' mean just editing around with the text files, well, I've done plenty of that with MTW and RTW. I've beta tested for a bunch of games before, mostly MMORPGs like Everquest and Everquest II and Earth and Beyond and Star Wars Galaxies so I know the works of bug reports and excessively extended playing to get to a new place, only to have the game crash and your profiles reset but still finding the patience to keep double clicking on that desktop shortcut icon. I wrote map reviews for Unreal Tournament and CnC Renegade so deadlines and such aren't a problem. Contrary to popular belief, I am in fact not a robot, but a sentient being, so I can function on my own without preprogrammed instructions.

(Isn't it funny how threads like this double a forum's registered user count?)

.
Artannis Wolfrunner,

I remember your name from my .COM days. :bow:
.

So I'm here too (from the TWC), and of course I want to be a beta-tester ;)

I would be glad to help out, I have six years experience in professional software development, good written and analytical skills, plus i've tested tons of products in my career (mostly in the 3D area). I'm basically free till January, taking a break after a year of working my butt of to finish a product .

Best Regards.
T.

The testers aren't supposed to fix bugs, only to test things that coders, like me, give them. So, for instance, if a unit doesn't have the correct faction ownership and a settlement name in the script file is wrong, you'll be told which files to edit and how, and asked to see if it fixes whatever problems we are seeing.

In that case I could do it easily.

As for being able spot bugs and comment on the overall experience of a game, I'd say I pay a lot of attention to detail.

that said there are people here who are far more qualified than me who should rightly get the opportunity to beta test.

However if all else goes wrong, I could and can easily do what you would expect of a beta tester.

I have a Bachelor degree in history, and I'm currently getting a bachelor in journalism. Combine those two, and you've got someone who loves history, tracking down information, and correcting flaws. Add to that the facts that I love playing RTW and that I am a big supporter of this mod, and I hope you'll find me a suitable candidate to participate in the Beta Testing.

I'm looking forward to hearing from you.

~D Ive been around .commie since the very beginning..strange how places like this bring out all the old hands.

This thread is growing very fast ! 1300 views in two days and more than 40 applicants !
Yesterday I went to a recruitment forum for training periods for students but I find myself more eager to have an answer from EB than from the firms I went to.......

'Hi, I'm 19, I'm single, I'm male and I'm looking to become an EB Beta tester. Choose me baby and you wont regret it.'

Seriously tho, I would love to look at the content of EB behind the scenes, and become a tiny part of the production of such an awesome project. As a regular I'd love to commit some of my time to become a tester, I wont bore you with my vices and virtues, experience and ambitions, I just want to help, and experience EB as soon as possible.

Well i applied last item, didnt get it, so il apply again, i play RTW probably way to much, but meh so id be interested in this.

I would like to apply as a beta tester.

I don't have much official modding experience but I am constantly tweaking my home game and have been playing RTW since last December. I also own a copy of BI and RTW 1.3, if you were interested in testing things on that program. I have a good computer but nothing spectacular.

I graduated high school cum laude and maintained a 3.0 GPA at UC Berkeley, graduating with a BA in biology in 2003 (or 2004 if you ask the College of Letters and Sciences).

You don't have to worry about understanding what I write, as American English is my native language and I am already a published author (in English) in an international scientific journal, PaleoBios. In addition, assuming it means anything, I have received a perfect score on every single standardized English language (SAT, ACT) or composition (SAT II, AP) test I have ever taken.

I currently hold a full-time job at a hospital and an extremely part-time job giving hour-long tours at the San Diego Zoo's Wild Animal Park, both of which require a very high level of communication ability and teamwork. I have also represented the SDWAP before literally tens of thousands of guests since February, so I know something about PR as well.

I am also a big fan and supporter of the project on both this board and TWCenter.net. I formerly maintained the thread The Lost Art of Keeping A Secret, REDUX after inheriting it from Sarcasm, who is now on your staff. Unfortunately my work schedule prevented me from continuing updates on that thread over the summer. However summer is over and I have a lot more time now.

Thank you for your consideration.

I would also like to help with the beta testing. I have been a gamer for most of my relatively short life (i'm not quite 18) and have probably spent more time playing RTW than any other game released. Although i am not a modder myself, I am very computer-literate and will easily be able to implement any fixes and what not that you require me to do.

I come to these forums (and the TWC ones for that matter) at least twice and day and have ample time to devote to playtesting (at least 20 hours a week). I am quite devoted to this project and have completed a small amount of work for you a week or so ago. History is my favourite of all subjects (especially the classical period), and gaming (along with gridiron) is my favourite pass time, so this really plays right into my field. Oh i forgot to mention i have what most would consider a very good grasp of the english language (i topped my grade in our statewide english writing task and have had some of my poetry published in a few anthologies by the International Society of Poets).

I have been checking this forum every day for about six months now and being able to help you with the beta testing would mean the world to me.

P.S if you are wondering why it took me so long to reply to this call it is because at first i misread the post and thought that i would need to be able to edit the code myself. Once i looked throught the files and thought i would be able to do this i checked back to find out that i didn't need to do that even.

EDIT: i also forgot to mention that i have a high end system capable of running smoothly with all graphics options on their highest settings and with huge unit size

Divinius convinced me. Just tell me what to do and I'll be a tester.

Sure I am. I'm new in the guild, but I've been hanging around for the last months in TWC though I registered some days ago.

I am in university right now (but I do not live in it though, I'm from South America and it's another style, I live in my house) and I can play 3 hours per day for sure. I can also edit some files if you ask me, and I have a little experience in modding RTW.

Btw, I can speak english quite well.

Hope you consider me. I await your answer ~:)
