[QUOTE="justanobody, post: 4599582, member: 70778"] They will be testing them, but you already note that they missed other things in their own tests, and claims of fixes to some things already being in the open while only data was added to the open testing, and actual fixes to problems were not. So their actions speak much more clearly than their words, and their words offer little to no trust as there actions are always contradicting them. At least the volunteer is more trustworthy as s/he has nothing to gain from lying about the things or spreading misinformation. Let us look at this "living" product. How often do you see major changes after a new dataset is added? They should have the core of the thing down and working and not need to update the core software because a new rows was added to the database. Once you have the database working and can lookup its info then you don't need major design anymore. That is all the thing really is. A few simple calculations in the right place and a database look up to place the chosen data in the right places. A form filing piece of software shouldn't need this much work to make work. Other people have made better with Javascript only a month after the release of 4th. They are just making something easy to create and adding complexity to the software where it isn't needed. It really is just the compendium with some math functions and only needs to access the same database as the compendium to pull data from. So whatever inhouse testing they will continue to do is only because they haven't gotten level 4-30 even done yet for the core, and don't know how to make them work. @joethelawyer: It is about the only thing about the game I know. I was always waiting for him to get back up and do more because he always fell into a hole no matter what you did. I think the game actually only have 2 stages. the holes maps, and a random hole to fall in other than the house.... [/QUOTE]
