Hi guys, I want to test something out with you, as an interested party. Consider this like a marketing survey. Please answer each question if you intend to participate.
A) If you knew absolutely nothing about EB, based on your experience with games, mods, and software in general, what would your perception be of what a 0.7.4 or 0.8 "open beta" release would contain, and how playable would it be?
B) If you were playing the current version of EB without knowing its version number, having knowledge of the previous EB releases but not their version numbers (0.1 was very very basic, only changes to vanilla without new content, and you are familiar with the more recent versions), what version number might you reasonably expect the current version of EB to have?
C) In your opinion is the current version of EB more properly termed a "beta" release or a "full" release?
D) What would your perception be if the version numbering we use were to change dramatically - see B) for possible examples?
E) In your opinion, has the "beta" tag and the pre-1.0 numbering system hurt or harmed our popularity with people, people's willingness to try the mod, people's willingness to assist in the effort, and publicity in general?
Thanks for your time with this survey, it will be of great help to me!
