Possible Closed Testing Beginning Soon

Tue, 01 Jul 2008 22:15:57 GMT

Due to a lot of college stuff and work going on, it was alittle slow due to short amount of personal time, but I think I may be able to be giving Corrandon the hosting files by Saturday. Whoever that is still being a tester, please post here so I know who to add to the acceptance list of the closed testing.

Thanks,
Polantaris

Closer closer

We get closer as time goes by. I'm basically getting most of the things I never did back when I first started done, then I'll be getting most of the maps and such done.
Testers who applied and are actually going to be testing will have the following jobs:
Honest balance checking. I don't know how well the leveling and such will be, so that kind of stuff needs to be tested.
Bug checking. Like every game, there are bugs. If you do not report problems you find in the game, I will remove you from the testing.
Give suggestions. Please give me any suggestions you have to the game. For example, if you do not believe this spell or that ability is as good as it should be, tell me, and with valid reason, I might do something about it. The game cannot be better than it is without player input.
The current testers are as follows:

Techgamer - Need Contact information (Unless he's who I think he is)
Z3shep - Need Contact Information
King of Slimes
Maydrian1 - Need Contact Information
Madjarjarbinks
Corrandon - Host

Anyone who I need information about please let me know. I still need testers so feel free to respond but please include information also.
Thanks

Testers

Sun, 24 Feb 2008 16:09:34 GMT

It's probably a good idea for me to start getting testers for SJ2R. Not many people I remember from the old days, so I'll have to compromise.
If you are interested in helping me alpha test for SJ2R, please respond in this post with your information, and anything that would let me know that I can believe that you will be a good tester.
For the Hosting part, I believe Corrandon will probably be getting that, because I do remember him (even though my memory is horrible) from the old days, and as such he is automatically an alpha tester. If you are willing to be a tester, and follow explicit rules (probably not too explicit, but eh whatever) reply to this post and let me know. Like I said before, don't forget to post anything that would make me want you over someone else. I don't really know how many testers I'm going to have but I'll figure that out based on how many people apply.

I've gotten a lot of things done in the last week with SJ2R, I look forward to seeing how many people join when I start the first beta testing.

Just so everyone knows: I am looking for a legit Host. What I mean is that whoever is my host will get (almost) full Admin commands. I'm looking for someone who I can trust not to fuck with the game (Because you get a lot of power as a full Admin) and someone who will actually help players legit. If you are interested, please let me know.
The kind of host I am looking for (because I no longer own a dedicated computer) is someone who can keep a server up 24/7 with no exceptions unless they are completely valid. For example, someone who is under scruitiny of their parents will not be accepted, because of reasons such as being grounded, or not being allowed to access the computer, etc. If you do not have any of these problems, and can guarantee 24/7 uptime AND Legit play, please let me know. I will not be afraid to just cut you out if you show that you are not these things. You will still have host files yes, but the game is no where near complete, and as such, you will not get updates if you break these parameters.
Please comment if you are interested.

Well Underway

I've returned!

Tue, 05 Feb 2008 13:58:42 GMT

I've finally gotten the time to get back into BYOND, and I shall do as much. I have most of my old code for SJ2R, and everything like that, so let me give an update otherwise:
I'm in college, so I won't be BYONDing 24/7 as I used to, but I will always be able to help out and I'll try to be on. I don't have a job anymore, as I had to move, so for the meanwhile I'm available. Keep a look out for my games again, cause I'll be getting SJ2R ready for a beta test soon enough. Have fun, and till then, I'm out.

Ah, by the way, I like the new site. It's a lot better than the old one that's been around forever actually lol.

Once again, and unfortunatly, GE is in a halt. However, I have decided, I am going to COMPLETELY remake SJ2, then get back into GE. There is going to be a complete and uter makeover for SJ2 as soon its done, so don't ask when that is.

Little Problem

Tue, 18 Oct 2005 17:41:41 GMT

I think this world does not want the re-release of GE. I am experienceing problems with the Savivng Code, and without it, there is no game. So, I am currently working as much as possible to get it working, but no luck ATM. When I get it working I will post here. I have a Post on the fourms about it, and I am currently trying Numberous things but no luck ATM. Sorry to EVERYONE that was waiting for this. Please bare with me, I will get it up ASAP.

Have a great day everyone, and be ready, GE WILL be released in this month!

Okay...

Sun, 02 Oct 2005 19:58:06 GMT

So, I posted a new News thing on the GE HUB Page:
"On October 15th, GE will be back and being hosted until an unknown date wheen the Alpha will be stopped, and full construction on the Beta will begin. Until further notice, GE will be up From the 15th in the Alpha 2 Phase, everyone enjoy!"

Hopefully, there will be no more delays. I had originally hoped for an October 1st release...that failed miserably. So, if anyone doesnt understand what that says I'll length it here.

Starting October 15th...GE will be officially (and unoffically) being hosted again by myself. It is being called the Alpha Testing Phase 2. Unlike the Alpha Testing Phase 1, This testing phase will go on for more than 3 days (or whatever it was).

There will be a huge variety of new features, maps, ships, components, and much much more. There will be many more updates to increase the map size and such, but the REAL Updates, for the main story line and such, will be on a seperate code file and everything, starting on December 1st, a lot less Updates will occur on the Public version.

If there are any questions or comments, please ask over this (I allowed Non-Member Comments) or email me at polantaris@bluebottle.com

Working on GE!
