Zomba Posted February 19, 2013 Share Posted February 19, 2013 Bohemia Interactive seem to have a pretty spot on approach with the Arma series that seem to work fine. Upcoming patches have beta releases that are made publicly available, there is also a public bug reporting system available. Whomever has the time and think they can contribute with testing uses the beta patches and reports bugs. Seems like a pretty good approach where a not so fully staffed developer relies on a core community to help with testing new releases. Just to add on that. One of the BI devs, Dvordin, would sometimes jump on our teamspeak server leading up to a patch release and have a short interview about any issues we've had with the beta patches. I assume they did that with many TS servers. I don't test for bugs, but when I do I do it in production. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
agentkgb Posted February 19, 2013 Share Posted February 19, 2013 (edited) Agent. The ony comparison is the ability to handle a large amount of players with lots going on. You're right that this is a small community of simmers. I watched Novalogic go to hell and it started with basic stuff. We have a great thing going with DCS. We all want it to succeed. But if the title gets much more of an unstable reputation it won't last. Again it looks like they do see it this time. Just frustrating to sit by while they go through the growing pains I guess. I understand your point, no argue. What I meant is if you want something to succeed you have to be constructive. Comparing mobile phones to microwave ovens is pointless. I used to be an active member of the OFP/Arma community, and I remember, that they had also very hard times regarding the physics (damage model), and the netcode, because the amount of data to be shared between the server and clients was huge. They might have used a different model to get feedback from the community, but it is a completely different product and community, so I also wouldn't compare things in that sense. Now DCS reached a point, where the previous code was not good enough. As PRE-purchase customers, we should accept all the hickups of the beta. In order to succeed, we should help ED devs and testers by sending reports. Constant complains and whining leads nowhere. What I tried to say (personal oppinion!), is that I like how ED handles us, we get feedback, and we can change the scope, we can ask for new features in the beta. It is really uncommon I should say. But in the meantime ED accept bugs, and do they best. The rest of the story is about time... The thing is, everyone here is eagerly waiting for the patches and new DCS modules (including me), which is OK, but you can still enjoy the game in it's current state, like I do :) - KGB - Edited February 19, 2013 by agentkgb [sIGPIC][/sIGPIC] Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
