We getting Beta 6 soon?

April 23, 2015 1:28:55 PM from Galactic Civilizations III ForumsGalactic Civilizations III Forums

With release being 3 weeks away, I'm hoping we get beta 6 very soon.  Like maybe before this weekend soon.  Three weeks doesn't seem like much time to comb over and report things, especially when we haven't even seen many features yet.

Per Frogboy it appears not this week as he wants to do more AI tweaks before that is released.

I suspect it will be this weekend, or just after

Grrr.  He will always be tweaking the AI.  That is no excuse for delaying a release!  We could end up waiting forever.

Either it's being released too early, or it is taking too long.  Literally!

Maybe somebody should just tell that guy to get hoppin' !      

 

(Frogboy --- just a joke ---- don't take it seriously ---- please.)

Rats.  If it's not out tonight, tomorrow, or Saturday, I'll be on the road for home with very limited internet and probably won't be able to download it until Monday May 4th.

Most likely early next week.  Releasing a significant beta like this wouldn't typically happen on a weekend.

I'll accept an opt-in patch that way if it breaks I can opt-out??  lol

Or even more limited I'm sure a few of us wouldn't mind a private beta, we promise not to complain (too much )

Yes, I concur with Seilore, Private invites to Beta 6. Let your 'Trusted Alpha's' get the demanding testing that you need done. I promise to waste..errr test all 48 hours of this weekend if allowed.....

LOL Yes, we sure can come across like rabid dogs needing a fix... Yes, I'll also be quite happy to test my @ss off if allowed this weekend... Heck, I'll still be playing it either way but I sure would like to get my grubby little mitts on Beta6!

Stardock did do something like that in the GC1 beta.  They selected a group of beta testers to participate in the gamma test.

I've been playing Beta 5 over the last three days, and it crashes on me a lot.

Specifically, when I use the middle mouse button to scroll out.

I save often, but this is killing me.

I am new to bug reporting and I need to look up how to do it with this game.

Much appreciated! Though just please don't make us wait too long, we're an impatient bunch of SOBs that can get quite unruly...
