Title: Will It Be Ready?
Post by: Anonymous on February 15, 2005, 10:44:37 pm

I've posted a petition in the beta section of the MxO boards to delay release.  It was not a post to list the specific issues or to bash the dev team or the game by any means.  I posted it because I want this game to be the best that it can be before it is released to the unforgiving public.  For more details of my thoughts and the thoughts of others on this, you can check out the post here:

I am under no illusions that this will make any difference, but I feel it is our responsibility to the devs and to our fellow gamers to voice our feelings on the matter, even if they don't listen to us.

I don't think theres anything they can do now...I think its out of their hands and in the hands of WB.  Doesn't look good.

what im scared of is that we arent testing the storyline missions so how do they know they arent going to be bugged because the misssions we got now proves that they cant tell or if they can they dont fix them.

Good point.

Operator:  'Ok, now upload the access codes you received from Morpheus at a hardline, so we can shut down the matrix and save humanity.'
Error:  'Items could not be uploaded'
Beleev: 'You MOTHER*&%^&^$!'

Well, technically, the missions we are doing just now will probably hold all the variables needed by story missions. If they add another element that hasn't been tested, well... they are screwed (unless they get lucky)!

Current Critical Missions = Basic General Templates for Storyline missions

Any Additonal Storyline Missions = Devs have a private internal server running an instance of the matrix and are testing the hell out of it....or maybe that's what they're doing right now on Parser.

It could be why the other server has been labeled as admins only for a while now.

They said that they had their own team testing all the story-related contents so as to not let any spoilers out to the beta testers.

So the stuff that we don't see now but that will be avaible when this thing goes live should be (somewhat) tested.  They're just having the beta testers test the game mechanics and the world in general.
