AppleJuice4u 9 Posted July 29, 2012 Iv been carrying a m24 and m4a3 around for a few days now, being very happy finding my first sniper rifle i was careful not to lose it.I log out a few hours ago, with my m24 and m4 still, i log back in now, same server, spot. no m24 in my pack.This is getting frustrating, why bother for end game gear when the pos buggy game is gonna delete it? Thanx for wasting my time Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Izithel 23 Posted July 29, 2012 A: The game is still an ALPHA, not BETA, not Release, it's ALPHA, that means bugs and glitches should be expected, deal with it.B: Since when does this game have an 'endgame?' Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
SteamTrout 18 Posted July 29, 2012 You're welcome. Now be a good tester and reproduce the bug this time remembering all steps and provide a proper bug report.Sounds too boring/complicated? Wait for release. 8 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Games that are in alpha is first stage of testing which is done internally by the developers. Closed beta is when a few people from the public are selected to play a game to help test the game as well as testing continue to be done internally. Open Beta is open to the entire public to test as well as continued internal testing. Now sense the game is open to the public it can't be an alpha.I wish players and Rocket would quite saying it's in alpha that is the stupidest thing I have ever heard. The game is more in open beta then it is in alpha. Also you will never see a finished product because Rocket has no funding behind it. He doing it on his own dime with the help of some people from the communitie who are helping out on there own time. They are not working on this full time like a normal game would be if it were being developed by a actually game company. 2 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

As far as I can tell, beta is when assets and features are complete and bugs are the only thing left to fix.Alpha code is typically kept out of public's reach, but that doesn't necessarily mean it can't be publicly available. Unless you have something substantial that definitively states otherwise, that is. 2 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Unless you have something substantial that definitively states otherwise, that is.In software development, your alpha test, will be a test among yourselves (the teams) to confirm that your product works. Originally, the term alpha test meant the first phase of testing in a software development process. The first phase includes unit testing, component testing, and system testing. During this time you will compress files, edit for misspelled words and unclear directions, broken links, and sync audio and video. You will also test your product on the lowest common denominator machines to make sure download times are acceptable and preloaders work.In software development, a beta test is the second phase of software testing in which a sampling of the intended audience tries the product out. Beta testing can be considered "pre-release testing." Beta test versions of software are now distributed to curriculum specialists and teachers to give the program a "real-world" test and partly to provide a preview of the next release.nuff said.

griffinz 2817 Posted July 29, 2012 Rocket has a studio supporting him.What the hell is wrong with you people? At least research for 10 minutes before stating fiction as if it was fact. Every day I read posts saying "Rocket should be hired by Bohemia for all the money he's made them" or "Rocket is making this mod by himself". 2 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

I know he is talking to a lot of people but I wasn't aware he was received a grant/loan/payment and or a team, studio or other way to work outside of his own means. Please do inform me.

mikerunk2011@gmail.com 6 Posted July 29, 2012 This is so cute, apparently someone never heard of the free mods called Counter Strike and Team Fortress. Made my modders with no money involved but their free time and effort.Those are also mods that eventually got funding and were developed in to there own titles. So far DayZ is just a mod and has no funding behind it. He can develop the mod all day long but you will never see it go beyond just it being a mod till it gets funding behind it. You're right Counter Strike and Team fortress did start off as mods. However later they got funding and were given there own titles.Rocket want's DayZ to be it's own title but he refuse to get funding which means finding a publisher. With out funding everything he has planned for DayZ will happen very slowly if at all. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
