Title: Pre-alpha testing
Post by: Lozza123 on March 02, 2003, 01:45:50 pm
\"It\'s in it\'s pre-alpha stages\" everyone says whenever somebody asks a frequently asked question that isn\'t in the FAQ.  What I do understand from this is that pre-alpha means very young and incomplete.  So in our pre-alpha state, what features already stand?  It\'s a bit of a bad time to ask this as it\'s about to be updated but maybe I could get an answer from a veteran or even moderator please?  I\'m so confused  ?(

Pre-Alpha is the first major release. The only feature in right now that I know of is walking, a simple chat system, and an exterior, and maybe next release, a interior and a few minor other things, and a bunch of bugs are ironed out. Look on the main page for all the stuff, it used to be on there.

In MB, you will see walking around, running, chatting, forming guilds and buddy lists, character appearance and clothing customization, inventory manipulation, picking up and putting down items, NPCs that talk to you, thunderstorms, more music and sfx, time of day lighting, more race models, etc. etc.

Has Link been converted? No flames? Or was it because Lozza123 asked it so friendly?

I don\'t think Link has been converted....
Lozza simply asked a valid question in a nice way, even Link doesn\'t flame a post like that ;)

BTW Venge, thanks for the update on the state of MB. I\'d been wondering about what new features to expect. Good luck to you and all other developers :D
