I just want to know...
« on: March 27, 2005, 05:39:57 am »
Why is this game sooooooooooo buggy???....i\'ve played countless games, many of them in Beta testing. I\'ve participated in many closed and open Beta\'s for a variety of games (let\'s say 25 - 30) and not all the bugs from those games combined, comes close to the numbre of bugs in this game alone...
I would like to know...Why is that???
Why is this game sooooooooooooooooo buggy???

Thank you.

This is the beta of an alpha not a beta itself. The main thing we\'re doing by playing right now is to help the devs find and eliminate these bugs. So if you find one that has not already ben reported please do so.

What are some of the Beta\'s you\'ve been involved with? Hopefully they are all 3D MMORPG\'s being developed and run by people in their spare time and offering full community interaction and have no interest in going pay to play?

Sahkmeth, have you tried betas of 3d graphical multiplayer games that are released simultaneously on Linux, Freebsd, Windows, and MacOS before? I would hazard a guess that your answer would be \'no\', am I right?

Take a look at how hard it is to get this sort of thing right, there are many huge commercial game-development companies that are struggling to do what the planeshift dev team have done. I\'d say its a brilliant achievement myself. Doing it for free is nothing short of amazing.

If you want to send in software patches that correct bugs, I\'m sure the dev teams of planeshift, crystal space, cel and the like will be very happy to receive them.

It\'s a great game, just appreciate all the hard work that has gone into its creation. You try programming a full 3D game, its very hard. Go play Runescape or something, come back when Planeshift is done.
