    • Who playtests these games...?


      ...and how do I become one?

      Is it limited to the "oldies" who have stuck around for years, who witnessed the collapse of the ancient independant Discboards, who currently hang around dispensing advice and bitching about eachother, or can a (relatively) normal lifeform like myself get involved?

      Before anyone starts, I'm aware that EV3 has some way to go yet before it's out on Beta. I've read Andrew's post that said something along the lines of "It's almost in Alpha... should be within a month" and yes, I know that nobody can plan for all possible circumstances. I'd just like to put something back into a game series that I've been fanatically playing since it came out.

      Is there some kind of list?

    • Technically, anyone can. It really helps to have:

      • registered Ambrosia products

      • have at least some degree of respect here

      • be the first person to get on the signup list.

      On the last game beta ASW did (Apeiron 1.0.3), it was first-come, first-served.

    • Hmm... I guess I'm down the sink then...

      Pity. I'm 'sort of' one of the 'oldies' - I just took a few months/perhaps a year (- I lost count) break from posting in these places etc. Just after all the fuss when they closed the old Discboards.

      BTW, I don't regret that they closed them. That was then. This is now. Tomorrow will be the future.

      I don't think I have much of a chance.

      Very funny, now beam down my clothes. These ladies look rest-less..... uh-oh...

    • Hehehe I remember the old boards too. I too took a long break from these boards. recently I have been reading the boards but not posting anything. I've come to the reallization that I have no usefull information and that nobody wants to see me post anything. Anyway, this topic seamed to be heading in the direction of spam.

      Goodbye

    • Spam? No, I don't think so.

      I was just curious to know how I'd go about becoming one of the testers.

      It occured to me that after all the time I've spent playing the games, it'd be nice to help out.
