Beta LOL : V

Ahh, Bethesda. Only you would have a public beta test of your product three months after launching it. I've got to hand it to you. I mean, getting the public to pay you for the privilege of testing your product for you? Genius!

And my word, it's definitely beta. I've started a new game and I'm not even out of Helgen Keep yet, and I've already found a handful for yummy new bugs. I guess your internal testers didn't get far past pressing the START button? Makes sense. I mean, those guys don't work for free.

Happy testing everyone.

You could have saved yourself a lot of trouble and just lurked. You would have seen your sentiment expressed -- far more eloquently, I might add -- repeatedly.

Then again, for Oblivion.
Then again, for Morrowind.

If you're just a drive-by poster, I'm sorry you wasted your time. If you're going to stick around, welcome to the community.

You angry, bro?

Seriously, no. I passed anger about two months ago. Now I'm just hysterical.

Useless thread LOL

Are you referring to the 1.4 patch beta test?

I'd much rather have Beth reach out to the community to ensure there are no issues rather than roll it out with minimal testing. Perhaps you've forgotten there are thousands of combinations of software and programming for PC, and there's no way devs could test every eventuality on their own.

As testers not on the beth payroll, we pay them! quite a deal lol

I've actually had very few bugs... no broken quests, no strange happenings, no duplicating NPC's. Mostly the game runs lag free. And all this on the notoriously 'broken' PS3 version.

Maybe I'm just lucky.

BGS isn't the first company to do this and certainly won't be the last. If you don't want to feel like an unpaid beta tester, don't download the beta.

I think this is actually a poorly thought out rant claiming that the game, as released, is not actually a release candidate in the OP's eyes, but more of a beta quality release.

I think the OP is a bit off the mark.

Saved myself the trouble of writing a few lines of text? Damn, you're right! I've wasted 23 seconds of my life! NOOOOOO!

Don't post memes you obviously don't even understand.

I think OP is a beta.

» Fri Jun 08, 2012 12:45 pm

Seems like a valid point to me, beta test a patch, only in skyrim.

» Sat Jun 09, 2012 12:32 am

Everybody just excepts that Bethesda cranks out bugg ridden games, sorry thats unacceptable.

Nice. A thread just to rant. If you have problems with your game you may post about them in the appropriate H&S section of the forum. If you just posted to rant...your thread gets closed.
