Well, it's time for another announcement about BC--and today, I'm pleased to announce the commencement of a beta test for our next release, coming
soon--the BC Script Release! Most of you have already read about the succession script in the last BC preview--well, it's almost time to release not only that, but also several other scripts developed by the BC team.
Of course, scripts are finicky things, and we're not releasing yet--so this announcement is of the beta test of these scripts. Anybody who wants to can apply for the test--just PM retep219 about it. But this test isn't all playing around--there are some things you must do:
1. Beta testers must submit a weekly report detailing their experiences in the beta. Ironic as it is, many of us aren't BC's most experienced players, and we need advice from the playerbase as to how hard things must be, and indeed what "Hard" is in the first place! These reports don't have to be long--just say what bugs you've run into (We hope not many!) and what you think needs to be changed for balancing purposes. We need a way to get information!
2. Beta testers must play the campaign that the team wants them to play. Sounds Orwellian, right? Not really...but there are a few factions more affected by the new scripts than others, and we'd like some people to play those. It shouldn't be a big deal, and if we get a large enough spread of people, we won't be making any requests!
3. Beta testers must not release information about the beta test unless explicitly allowed to. Yup, a confidentiality clause. We have our reasons.
4. Beta testers must know how to read .log files, how to prepare detailed error report and how to track down eventual errors.
Well, that's it, really. If you think that you can do all of this, we'd love to have you aboard. Just contact retep219 in order to join! Thanks, and good luck playing!
