Cool down will ja?

Please people this is a test ... I repeat a TEST.
A test of stats and how things will work when the real round starts!

Now all jumps on the last 5 gals in uni…I saw a gal stat with more red then the communist flag and yet all planets had around 100 roids at most??

Cool down people and attack some big planet to really see how thing works/looks ;XP, which ships works etc etc….

I repeat again: this is NOT the real round – It’s a few days when everyone can play for fun to test things!

You all learn more and success will come easier if you take this time to both win AND lose some ships.

Re: Cool down will ja?

lol you know I log in once an hour or at least 5 times a day just to build something or just to send in gal defence but have kinda not been bothered about playing it properly, but what I was not xpecting is loadsa ziks and other races all just n00b bashing my lil planet coz I am easy pickings which doesnt seem to prove much in the sense of actually testing as everyone is actually just out n00b bashing what they can which defeats the point of a beta ( unless we beta testing n00b bashing)

Re: Cool down will ja?

I've been top 20 most of the round.

I'm in a pretty decent galaxy.

We've been attacked a TON.

It's not like its just lowbies getting hit, theres a lot of attacks going on everywhere.

OFC the lowbies get more incoming, It may be a beta, but it always helps to have roids to work with.

Re: Cool down will ja?

because people see the beta as a 'free game' , rather then testing like they should
public betas are rarely as constructive as private ones , where genuine testers actually test.

Re: Cool down will ja?

Btw, this”test” with a stealing ship in every race looks like a sure”hit” hope it stays!

It gives all the races a new dimension and it’s more fun to play.

Re: Cool down will ja?

ofc people treat it like a free game.

How else do you test things except by acting the same as you would in a regular game.

You get to know what a race is like by playing it.
Sometimes you roid lowbies, just to get your income up, sometimes you try hitting large planets to try for a big XP gain.

Just as you would in a real round.

It isn't taken as seriously ofc, but to complain about people testing the game by playing it like they normally would, makes no sense at all to me.

IMO it's certainly a more effective test then the contrived closed betas that happened.

Re: Cool down will ja?

In a private beta the testers are normally told what areas to test and what isnt working right, and they go and test it. in a public beta people just play like they would, instead of looking in a certain area which has changed for bugs.
its more constructive in that sense

Hope ive clarified what i meant for you

Re: Cool down will ja?

If I had not played for a while, and saw Public Preview, I'd think it wa s way to give interested people a shot etc...

Re: Cool down will ja?

i personally can't believe you actually expect people to 'test' in a public beta which you even call a preview...

you knew in advance testing would never happen so why bother with it?

if it was a beta, shouldnt the ticks be quicker and shouldnt full tech trees etc be given out and res after say 24 hrs, because quite frankly 15 min ticks is slow, you cant actually test game mechanics when an attack takes 2 and a half hours.

So basically people are doing as they are supposed to. There is just as much n00b bashing in a real game, as there is in this public preview/beta.
