When will you finish the Beta?

[Mongoose]

"Mongoose, like what I said, I said that what date do you THINK you'll finish at this RATE. so you comment is invalid"

Right, but that rate will change. It's not consistent, they might find a huge bug and spend two weeks fixing it. any thing they say now will be totally wrong. What's the point?

I find that it's best to just completely leave people alone when it comes to release dates, modding is very stressful

I meant that what time will be the release at this rate of work WITHOUT any incidents

[khelvan]

Sorry, there is no way to tell. The work is entirely about discovering these "incidents," as you call them, and dealing with them.

[Mongoose]

Like i said before, *anything* they say now will be totally wrong. You might as well talk to a witch doctor.

[jerby]

well, what will it help? everyhting they guess will only dissapoint people. i heard one say that the beta will be there in april. some peopel (NOT me) are dissapointed by that. so if nobody did any guessing. nobody will be dissapointed, and indeed call a withdoctor ;)

Can i be the "offical annoying rodent who says WHEN IT'S DONE when ever an ETA thread pops up"?

Just a thought

Sure, except mongooses (mongeese?) aren't rodents.[/pedantic]

i'd like to speak to EB's resident witch doctor, please.

[Mongoose]

He's away, let me replace him for now.


*Looks at crystal ball*

The mighty ZULULULLULU says that EB beta will be released when the crops die and sun is gone!


The mighty ZULULULLULU knows ALL.

Not to be arguementative, but isn't that what beta testing if for?

[Ranika]

Many of our current issues are rather large and noticable, having to do with additions or changes we make to how the game runs. They're pretty much impossible to not notice, and are huge irritations to playing the game properly. The beta we hope to have the major bugs and problems worked out (as well as have all our systems in place), so we can get more focused and nitpick over more minor issues and fix those without distraction from large game stopping irritations.

[TheBagelmeister]

Do you guys need anyone to do simple jobs that no one wants to do? Cause I'll gladly help. :)

[Mongoose]

"Except that like my EB progress bar it tells you nothing"

member a:Did u guys reed teh post wer vecengintroix(SP?) sed th bayta wud b sooon??!!1!!11
member b:How would you define "soon"?

Then a long, heated, and pointless debate will flare up and people will spend hours arguing over the meaning of "soon". many people will start "You guys are bad at P&R and im pissed" threads

[Mongoose]

Woops, double post. please delete
