It'll be good to get back into the Stardock Beta Process again. Last time I did a beta for them was with the original Galciv2.

I was just wondering, how much guidence we beta tester will get. Because i have to admit, this is my first closed beta, and i'd like to be of some geniune use. Maybe one of de GC2-beta veterans can shed some light on the subject.

Just showed the PAX videos to my son... He's basically drooling to get his little hands on the beta, though what he REALLY wants is the editors ;).

Actually, that's quite good. Better now than the day the beta is released.

  No prob...I want everyone to know when I get to play Batman.  I'll be sure to keep you posted ^_^

Seriosuly though, the beta's looking great...any alpha users should be getting a pre-Beta to test a few days prior to the official release, so if you're in that group keep an ear open.

Ah... er... So the Batman thing is serious and there is no beta next week or it's an elaborate joke?:moo:

Reply #21 Top

;) Yes, we're shooting for next week....no promises, but it's looking good.

Is this the cloth map only beta, or did that (alpha?) already happen?

Is this the cloth map only beta,
The current plan is to make the game cloth map only through Beta 2. This way we can truly focus on the gameplay for a few months :)

Cool, thanks, just curious =)  I'm having a debate on whether to beta the game and provide feedback to make the game (in my opinion of course) better, or if I want to hold off and see the finished product in all it's glory.


Decisions, decisions... :)
