1. We havent got 10 in the guild afaik.

2.  Im avoiding the official forums as they are full of the worst types of mmo players (fanbois, people who like bg based pvp and assume thats the pinnacle of pvp, roleplayers, pet collectors, people for whom stats and such are hard, and generally just a silly number of bads);

3. We have a recruitment thread, but they have silly bumping rules :(

This whole thing about being active on their crappy forums filled with the above - and a moderation staff that dont allow you to flame such individuals in the hope that they'll fall over and die in real life, therefore enhancing my gaming experience instead of getting in my way - really pisses me off.  WAR and others did the same in the past.  It just plain sucks.  

At least they dont say be active on loserbook.

However I will try, just dont blame me if I get banned.

on a good note though i saw by reading Kurtts link that the reason ive not been invited to beta is that they havent started eu testing yet :)

Dude, they started EU beta months ago. I know 5 or 6 people who have been testing it over the periods of time. Even managed to have a good hour long TS convo with 1 of em about pretty much everthing about the game. Kiss my arse, NDA's  :P

and as for pets in EVE, i'm hoping they definitely go for that idea. Cute little space monkeys running around my cpt quarters, and spider companions with laser eyes attached to the outside of my ship, firing the harmless cosmetic lasers at pods when they see em. Something I will definitely be pushing CCP to do if i get the job.

You'll be QA, something CCp dont listen too otherwise there'd never be the huge bugs in each patch :D

if software was bug free, id be out of the job  :P

Thats the thing, while CCP leave bugs in, they dont break eve totally, just usually 1 aspect of it, in a way thats always fun for people who notice it.  Last big one that I enjoyed was overheated mods staying at the heat bonus amount even after jumping would clear the overheating itself :)

All from a patch that didnt actually do anything to overheating...
Title: Re: Guild Testing
Post by: Chug on August 17, 2011, 12:11:50 PM
I bet it did include overheating. But 1 thing ive picked up on in my many years of being a test engineer is only tell the public about shiny shiny new things or massive glaring bug fixes. If you tell them about specific bits of code optimization they go out of their way to find things. They obviously kept that bit quiet, and probably didnt even tell the testers to run it through

PS Kurtty, apologies for the derail, but Chug loves to do this to me on the subject of CCP :)

Do what? I'm merely expressing my deep compassion for CCP  ;)

Are European guilds eligible for Guild Testing?

European Guild Testing will begin at the same time the European Testing Program begins in the near future.

So yeah, anyway, Guild Testing  ;)

If your up for this, can you please sign up here:

http://www.swtor.com/guilds/12977/hands-justice

We need four more members to be considered for testing.

Even if your rolling Sith come release, you still wanna get in to test it, right?

As much as i'd love to help you guys out, I have to test software for 8 hours 5 days a week as it's my job  :P Not exactly something i'd want to do when i get home too. Plus I don't want my high expectations of TOR knocking after seeing pre-release code. Gonna wait till it's released
Title: Re: Guild Testing

Oh yeah, thats for guild testing. I thought you meant general beta testing for indivuduals

Just a quick reminder about this.

We've currently got 7 members signed up. 3 more, and we will qualify for guild testing!

So. We now have 10 members (with a potential 11th on the way), so we now officially qualify for guild testing when it starts.

Coolies.
