Fortress Forever Beta Test

[DigiQ8]

As the FF Team reach for the final stages of development for their anticipated mod, they are asking the Half-Life community to participate in testing this mod.[br] So if you willing to help them out just head to their website and fill in the application (you should be a registered member in the FF forums). But remember that Beta Testing is not for fun, its for who wants to help the development of this mod and contribute to making it better.[br]


In other news, they just released these new screenshots.[br]

Cool, I love TFC.

Will be wierd when you have the division between the hardcore TFC fans, the FF fans and the TF2 gamers...

 

[nutcrackr]

They probably need a bigger test group to stresstest the server-side stuff and check every nook and cranny of the client side.

 

[nutcrackr]

how many crannies do they need to check?

Yes it will be awkward I believe.

I'd join the beta test team, but only for fun

Sheesh, it's a mod, they should just open the beta to the public. It's especially important for TFF to release soon, or else all their players will be stolen by TF2. Mods should stop trying to be like real games and just open their gates to the community as soon as they've got something playable / fun.

the problem with that is that the majority of gamers judge a released product as a finished product
people are stupid

And thats why most mods don't release often or early.

hardly any hardcore tfc fans are still playing and pretty most of them and the huge amount that aren't playing will play FF. TF2...that's another story

Looks beautiful. Been ages since I played TFC but still remember the all-night sessions staying awake on a steady supply of Mt. Dew.

 

[Asuka]

Great level design.

I'll certainly give both a shot. No need to hate on either until they come out.

And I agree with Sui. I'm all for making sure mods are playable.. but a lack of polish never hurt CS early on.

Yup. When we released Empires 1.0, you wouldn't believe the shitstorm that came over us. There was a lot wrong with the mod, true, but we considered giving players a chance to play the game more worthwhile then sitting on it much longer. Even though everything has been patched and fixed people still refuse to play because of the 1.0 release.

Serious? What... the only reason I didn't play was lack of large servers. How long till your 2.0 is out?
