New PTS Realm - We are part of the community that wants to help test, and report bugs and other issues.
I for one would volunteer to Primarily play on a PTS New World Realm.
Also I know others that would volunteer as well.
Also Furthermore you need to stand up a BUG BOUNTY program!
Require people that find bugs to sign an NDA, and anyone who uses the bug or exploit should be Notified to sign the NDA or risk ban if they continue using it.
At the end what is the difference, 20 more people? because I doubt very much that a Stream “has the time” to join in a test server to report bugs/exploits.
I’m not saying it isn’t helpful, but in my opinion, the more people the better.
Exclude anything only for twitch streamers, good way to get rid of everyone that is not a twitch streamer. NO special treatment for basement dwelling asmondgold wannabe’s.
What exactly is the point of having a PTS for streamers or an NDA if the whole point is public testing?
NDAs only make sense if they’re being signed on as voluntary help with privilege to the CMs’s direct reports/communications on upcoming things/potential issues to be tested.
Unless you’re suggesting private, and not public.
I think this is a hastily jumped to idea in an attempt to be the one who suggested it.
I don’t believe that the game in it’s current state warrants resources being funneled to a PTS and a live service. I feel that it would be irresponsible management to do so currently.
I think the responsible thing to disable live services and focus on a PTS. Open the live services once the PTS reports a stable build. Then from that point out, run the 2 versions alongside one another in proper fashion. If the build presents bugs, don’t update it until there’s no bugs.
But that is a fantasy world where people (investors in this case) do the right thing.
The right thing doesn’t make money though and the live service isn’t going to shut down. So for the time-being… we are currently playing the PTS.
Thumbs up!
