Important BETA RELEASE DISCUSSION - DECEMBER 4TH (*ALL* beta discussion goes here. Other threads deleted)

NOT CORRECT!
If you do the math...
30% October
60% November
90% December.
100% later than that.

 

You know a lot of people here have experience directly making, or otherwise being involved with videogame creation. On just about every side of the discussion. It really doesn't matter though, most of these things anyone could tell you about game making. Yes, it is generally accepted beta testing is the phase where bugs are exterminated and the game still has boatloads.

A few companies have used the term for over glorified early access, but George has already said it wont be that, recently.

 

Hah, and since i did moar math
i got more proof.
LOOK AT THIS!

 

Don't worry, they taught us some mad soft skills at uni. I luv u all!

 

Actually you are wrong to but only partially November should be 70% since Christmas usually rushes game developers into finishing whatever game their doing and later than that should be 99 percent because anything could happen

 

I see it more like...

0% October (Still have stuff they want ready for a beta stage)
50% November (Probably have the stuff ready for the end of November)
90% December (Everything should be in place for a beta release)
100% Later (No doubt)

 

I was wonder what the Hat Sprite Pixle size was so i can design my hats to mod in later, but when sitting in the IRC Live Chat, someone asked Tiy when the Beta is going to be Released, then out of nowhere he says "Dont know" then "Probably November" and suddenly it was silence, everyone was shocked xD

someone replied with "Wow you actually have a answer?" and Tiy said "He asked me nicely"

Crazy stuff lol

Here is some Pics i took of it. (I made a thread, it got locked, but its still up!... surprisingly xD i thought it would have been deleted at to what the title of this thread (the one where on right now) is.)

Proof(?)

Nah, its more more like 100% before the end of this year.
He said maybe, that's like 20%.
I was in the chat when he said it.

 

Yeah he said Maybe, but still, there almost done tier 1-3, thats how many where said to be for sure in the Beta, and there working on Small things now (Item name fixes, etc) and look at the latest Update! Theres something there you may have missed.

 

i thought there was like, ten tiers.
1-3 tiers in the beta i'd like.
i just want the beta

 

I believe their rough words were: "...have the first three [tiers] mostly done by beta]."

 

Don't get too hopeful about the "Maybe November" thing. I think it was more his way of saying "Not October".

 

Tiy said, "maybe november." So personally I'd say it's more like ~95%.

 

eh.... more like 50% no ?

he said on irc : i.. don know.. maybe
November. not the exact words, but it was a estimate he guessed, don't get to hyped up guys, you never know how long it'll take. they probably need to fix the most critical bugs first that makes the client run properly. so we can find the bugs they need help locating etc. never know how difficult/easy that is.

 

I hear they only had time for tiers 1-3 lol, as getting all like Tiy hopped would delay the Beta to much

 

So we're getting close. Good timing for me breaking my right hand. Well played meg.
(Also it hurts a lot)

F..k me.....

 

The beta is pretty much playable, watching Bart's recent stream he launches it with no problems, and there pretty well done tiers 1-3 (they said they will only get 1-3 in the beta) and there slowing down on development, there done the big things like NPCs and Villages, and are doing smaller things
