Testers wanted!

[Valkrionn]

Alright, we're looking for a few people who can test new versions before we release, to find any major bugs preemptively. In return for testing new features, you get to:

• Play with those new features.
• Find out our plans early on

I think it's a fair deal. The next version isn't ready yet, but there is a major feature coming in courtesy of Grey Fox (sadly, not Field Marshals yet) which will need quite a bit of testing, as well as the general python/xml cleanup. You'll also get to test the Overflow Production addition (Don't you want to know who gets to use it? :mischief), and the new worker system (yet to be done on the XML side, doing it today).

Once we get enough testers, I'll form a 'RifE Testers' group for you all, where I'll post download links, info on new features, and so on.

We're tentatively aiming for about a week from now, to get bug fixes and Grey Fox's new work in, so atm I'm just wanting to set up a group who can test. Don't need to try this last minute.

Invited you all to the 'Rise from Erebus Testers' group.

Can still use some more.

 

[Aoleleb]

I'd love to. Sign me up.

 

[Valkrionn]

Sent the invite.

One thing to keep in mind: Anything about new versions that are found out this way can't be mentioned in the main forums; Keep it in the Tester's group.

 

[shoggi]

If you still need more, I'm in.

 

[Vainglory]

I'm in if you need more as well.

 

[Valkrionn]

I'm looking for around 10 people at least.

The plan is to get the patch ready, and turn it over to testers for a week; Fix any bugs they find with the new additions during that week (Likely be a few versions), and then release.

Schizoid, you're unable to join social groups; Need more than 5 posts due to some new rules against spambots. Make another and I'll invite.

The rest of you should all have invitations.... Small post describing the major things, aside from the general cleanup.

 

[Gravage]

Well, in 2 weeks Ill be gone for 2 weeks. If that's no problem, Id love to help out

 

[Schizoid]

Ok well, NOW i should be in

 

[Valkrionn]

Yep, added now. So is Gravage.

I'm only going to take about 4 more people... Will give us 15 testers, plus people on the team forum.
