You need more testers? Are you literally kidding me? The publish 9 checklist is 100% done it just needs to be merged. I don't understand why you are taking your sweet time to get everything perfect.. it doesn't have to be amazingly perfect. It's like you guys are afraid of having jedi on the server, afraid of this publish bringing a plethora of people back into SWGEmu. I just don't understand the delay. just release it ffs.

They ***** need more testers cause nobody wants to test on nova when other people there are using commands to give themselves gear and the weapons avaible on the frog are barley better then starter weapons, then when you point that out they tell you to ask for a refund lmao.

we are just the labrats in their maze they dont give a fck at all what we think.

Go watch mobyus1's lastest video, they completely turned they're back on him from the looks of it after he didn't do anything wrong or to warrant it, and after all he has done to promote their project, I don't even like the guy but it was pretty good display of their attitude.

this is now summer time for everyone. It was wise to ask for our contribution before the month of July.

What you don't know about the checklist would fill a warehouse.

Frog gear is intentionally weak. It's there to test simple mechanics that do not require high-end gear.

If you want better gear on Nova, use a frog to insta-level your toon, generate resource deeds for yourself, and craft the gear you need. You can make anything you want in 24 hours using factories. The only thing you'd be missing are the loot drops at that point.

We definitely do need more testers. Testers catch things we miss, and come at things from different angles to help us figure things out. We'd let you in but your application for a CSR position is still pending.

Mobyus1 is, in fact, a good cat. What happened behind the scenes is between those involved.

So why not take the same stance on the checklist as you do time lines? Because it's very misleading.

That gave me a lol and a half

We use the percentages in the checklist to let us know internally how much we still need to focus on each page and look at what needs to be done. From a testing perspective, it helps me and others be more efficient with what we test. I get that its misleading to you, but it isn't a progress bar in terms of how close a publish is.

As to your frustration, all I can say is that I would classify it as being 'very soon'

[Jaws]

I'm away for a week. Please for the love of god don't release until after Aug 5th or there may be an odd rash of murders in upper state Michigan.

[Farelli]

For the potential benefit of those who view the checklist percentage as a percentage of publish completion, consider this fact.

QA doesn't know how much will be in the next publish. We learn that maybe about a day before it's posted in the publish announcement. So the assumption that the checklist completion percentage show the progress toward the next publish is flawed. We simply use it to keep ourselves aware of whether or not we are falling behind, as occasionally occurs. Such is the nature of a volunteer project.

The next publish comes when it comes. We will know its publish date for certain when the update announcement is made.

Until, then, QA keeps checking code, trying to define the scope of bugs and how to reproduce them.

If anyone wants to help us with that, please contact one of us. We'll be happy to let you help us. The more eyes the better. We all rely on each other to find the things that we tend not to see with our own eyes.

It's like you guys are afraid of having jedi on the server
