Beta Testers Wanted For Hidden Hands: The Lost Citadel

[JackFarmer]

Hi guys,

Beta Testing of HH:TLC shall begin latest at the end of next week.

The map size is ca. 80% of HH:I, and depending on play style it should take ca. three/four hours to complete the mission.

Please sign up here if you want to help. 

In case you don't want to help, then sign up here as well, and  I will ask grayman for divine punishment for all of those who do not work to the will of the Builder!

Sign me up. I'm currently busy modding, but I can spend some time to beta test your mission, assuming you release it before I devote my time to playing ESO: Greymoor.

[Jedi_Wannabe]

Oh snap. I can’t commit a ton of time as our baby is due any day now, but sign me up and I’ll get on it when everyone else is asleep.

[STRUNK]

Congrats that you got it out for beta now Jack!

I'd like to take the opportunity to sign up for no beta testing help, for I'd rather undergo the divine punishment

Btw, if you might need help with the mechanics somehow, you can always ask ofc : )

Sign me up. I'm very close to going into beta on my own mission, but I can devote some time to testing others.

This. I can't promise to be able to dedicate loads of time but I'd certainly give it a run through once or twice!

[Krilmar]

Interested in helping. Sign me up if you still need testers.

I can help by next weekend

[JackFarmer]

Great, thank you very much. You guys will test with 2.07 or latest 2.08 beta build?

The latter would be preferred as I've decided to make this a 2.08 release and have already tested lots of stuff with 2.08.

[joebarnin]

I will test on 2.08

[Bienie]

I have both 2.07 and 2.08 installed, I'd be more than happy to run it on 2.08.

[Jedi_Wannabe]

The latter.

[Cambridge Spy]

2.07 if possible, if 2.08 is released as a final build, I'll happily test it on 2.08.

[manzanita-crow]

I can do 2.08 easily, as that's installed. Bit more of a faff to reinstall as 2.07, but should have time.

[JackFarmer]

Okay, just a few more final fixes. I will get back to you with PM asap.

Thread in Beta Testing forum will show up shortly.

You should ask in the Beta test forum Jack. That's what it's for.

The tradition is to ask for testers here and then direct them to another thread in the betatest forum for their reports as the actual testing begins. That way, the actual betatesting thread only contains the actual betatesting stuff like reports and new versions (this betatest is strictly invite only, so there are no new versions in that thread though).

Historically, access to the betatesting forum required asking a moderator for permission. But that changed in January 2018. Since then everyone can just go there and get their sneak preview. But most keep ignoring that section when they are not involved in betatesting themselves...

Personally i treat the betatest recruitment threads as anouncements about new missions to come (and sometimes i even join the testing). Although it would certainly not be conceptually wrong to fully contain all betatest-related stuff to the betatesting forum, i am glad, that that isn't the case.
Asking here is definitely incresing the chance to reach more potential testers, wich in general leads to more testers. That leads to a higher realease quality and i really like to play high quality releases...
