choose better times for your playtest

[marble badger]

7:30am-1:30pm? who thought of these times. was looking forward to playing this till i get off work and realized how bad the timeframe was

[sudden meteor]

he’s in Europe so they aren’t gonna be great for america

or i should say the west cause idk if you are american

He does tests for murica at times as well. But usually it's EU focused.

For the purpose of testing, it doesn't really matter which time anyway. The servers fill up regardless.

[crisp gulch]

In the past few weeks, there were often 2:30pm EST and 9pm EST playtests that last 3 hours during weekdays
They just weren't this week due to devs focusing on (and releasing :D ) helis
But yeah, playtests are mostly for the benefit of the devs, Early Access is when we'll have better times to play, yeah?

[sleek nest]

Early Access will have servers up 24/7, so that'll be hard to miss.

[dusky ermine]

be thankful your not australian

[stray oyster]

ikr, im interested in this game but am yet to play it due to the awful testing times (I'm in AUS as well)

[vague zodiac]

early access is a myth

[quiet abyss]

7:30am-1:30pm aint that bad actually thats pretty good us aussie its like 12:30am-6am pretty bad i dont really mind tho getting to play the game is fun anyways

[dusky ermine]

Eternal playtests

[real rover]

i wouldn't mind eternal playtests

[loud rivet]

imagine being a sole developer and organising your game's stresstests around when you're available to observe and fix critical issues
couldn't be me

[sleek nest]

I, too, plan to cook my food in my kitchen, at times when I am not at home.

[lyric junco]

and? Run them at a different time. Really ain't that hard, especially when Oki's sole job is BB:R lmfao.

[sudden meteor]

bro he does , there’s times for na during the week 💀

[lyric junco]

If you give a fuck ab mass feedback and any real 'stress' test, you wouldn't soft lock ur peak to 23k with bad hours

Yeah, ain't nobody doing anything else on a Tues/Thurs 💀 definitely isn't the reason why DayZ has a higher concurrent monthly peak consistently 💀

🤡

[sudden meteor]

dayz is a bigger title and actually released what a comparison 💀😭

[lyric junco]

LOL DayZ's released?

If barely working is "released", sure!

[sudden meteor]

but it’s not for the players it’s for him to test

[lyric junco]

"Stress". 23k ain't shit 😂

[sudden meteor]

he can’t just make more people play

[lyric junco]

As I said and you fail to comprehend, the hours create a soft lock peak because they are dogshit 🙂

[sudden meteor]

i comprehended it fine , but you also have to think he needs to be there for the tests so he can’t stay up 24 hours in a row

[lyric junco]

Yeah, ur right. 4 or 5 or 6 hours mid-week for an unemployed person is way too long 🤡

friday or sunday? Nah, they don't exist 🤡 🤡 🤡

Keep ridin that hog 🍆 🚴‍♂️

[sudden meteor]

bruh you think he only spends that much time on the game ?? he’s working on it 24/7 he’s always falling alseep at like 5am lmao

you keep complaining the test times suck 🙏🏻

you can wait till release anyways no need to have a tantrum over the pre release testing

[sleek nest]

What's yours?
Trolling on forums, making bad assumptions about things you have no grasp on?

There's literally tests with NA times, they're just not as frequent. So curb that entitlement worthy of a 9 y/o.

[lyric junco]

What's ur favorite flavor crayon? Get outta my @ancient kiln 🤡 ass. You ain't been apart of dick all development-wise, keep the talking between the grown-ups and quit projecting.

[sleek nest]

Child, seek parental attention elsewhere.

[austere barn]

ITT: yanks mad

[charred bison]

crazy how entitled you are. the devs have to be awake every hour of the playtest. they arent going to make it perfect for you and shit for them
