Title: Beta Testing Department Organization Thread
Post by: Vrosivs Avgvstvs Rakvs on September 29, 2016, 04:48:59 PM

This thread is reserved for the Beta Testing Department Members and is to be used for general organization of the department. All members of this department are asked to visit this thread periodically, so as to be up to date with their own involvement in the development.

We have plenty of testers, ultimately anyone can test. What we need to do here is create a system for testers to follow.

Well for standard campaign testing, I suggest testers make a thread for their current campaign they are testing, and do an AAR-style coverage it. Update every few turns, provide screenshots, write down notable things, as well as first impressions; also report bugs and state opinions freely, accompanied by any possible suggestions etc. :)
As for battles testing, well, a mini AAR of the battle along with the ending stats scroll for all the units would suffice I think, that way we could keep track of the balance of the factions rosters, see if anything stands out either as too underwhelming or overpowered, and put it back to place. :)

I agree with V's suggestion on an AAR-style of coverage. As a tester, it would give me a perfect style to cover and report any bugs and balancing issues.

I like AARs, they're good for putting out on our twitter etc :)

Alright, I think we should really emphasize testing in the following days. How many of us can beta test?

My rig should arrive by the end of the day, so I am avaliable. I'll just need to re-download the mod.
