| How often do you have to submit bug reports for Mudbox if you were part of the beta testing team?? |
| Murat |
| Kiffy20 if you get paid Then a lot And if you don't You don't have to at all But it's appreciated and will help you with a better final version |

| Surely, just being part of the beta testing team must bring some obligations? |
| Murat |
| Well the beta's I was part of there were no obligations Just the pain of working with an unfinished product But the beta's I was in were games And visual studio If you're a beta tester without getting paid, that's usually being lucky :P If you get paid it can be a real pain in the ass |
| Skubbyl |
| Hehe, yea, makes sense in a way |
| Murat |
| The guy at penny-arcade.com is a professional beta tester He has a few articles on how it sucks to play a game you really want to play And then have to exploit bugs all the time And being stuck and having to do everything again And then writing long bug reports :P |
| Skubbyl |
| Patience I dont have |
| Murat |
| Well then the beta testing is not the right job for you :P |
| Skubbyl |
| I won't quit my dayjob, hehe |
| Murat |
| I betatested world of warcraft, that was a lot of fun :D In the end they created a sort of acopalypse scene where the demons descended on the earth and destroyed everything That was the end of the beta :P It was more a serverload test than a software test cause there were close to no bugs Just some lag sometimes And visual studio hadn't many bugs either, only some things when you ran the older version at the same time And the help functions frequently crashed the app :P |
