Hello everybody!

I'd like to ask... couldn't there be any "testing" versions before the final release? Why don't you (the CTRP team) release some levels so that we, the other members, can have a closer look to your work?

I beg you guys, I can't wait to see the Dark Ages in 3D!!!! :lol:

Patient... patients :)

From what I heard there not even done the complete demo <_<

but ya Beta of the full game would be nice in the future :)

but all starts with patients

yeah.. I dindn't even see any concepts..
but I'm Mr.Patient himself :D..
the only thing what's important, is THAT there's gonna be a remake...(after I don't even thought about a 3D CT, until a few weeks ago)
:D

Egh! A beta would be the worse thing that could happen. It would spread all over the net, and get squares attention. :unsure:

yepp.. uhm.. just..
Does CTRP have a plan-B ?
for countinueing the project? for the "if"

There will be a closed beta before the official release. We'll decide on a system for picking the lucky members who get to beta test when the time comes.

And to my knowledge, plan-B = Stopping production...

Great. Thats comforting, chuckles.

nice plan, that B ^^.. woooh

Ahh!! I can't wait for the demo!! Even though I can't play it! I still can't wait! Lol
Anyways, from what I know, plan B is all good. ;)

naah.. forget it..
real plan b is...
..
..
.........
..
I simply make the game alone^^.. done!..
thats a plan eh? :D

I'm only here to help :P

Closed beta testing. :o


*starts being a super brown nosing kiss-ass*

Wow, brain, man you are soooo cool...

Hey, now theres a perk for the top ten posters. closed beta trials :D :lol: :D

That makes sence, since the top 10 posters could do it, then tell everyone else how it was.

yeah, if you gonna count the posts, beginning from uhm.. now.. I'll get in the top ten, easyly.. :D

Well, it will be whenever they are ready to send it out, plus alot of the members arn't on or havnt been on for months. So they might have a specific way to choose who gets it and who doesn't.

allrighty

If we just base it on the top 10 posters, wouldn't that be kind of illogical? One those people might not have UT2004, and two we need computers from different ends of the technical spectrum. I'll certainly say post count would be at least a partial factor, but the other ones are probably more important. We don't want people posting excessively just so they can post.

Also, some of our real life friends may want to test the game.

:huh: why don't you guys just pic the people with experience beta testing games?

How about everyone submits their system specs and thats how the game beta testers are choses along with tester skills?

hehe...

i dont think anyone knows this...

but wolfpack doesnt have ut2k4 :P

and i dont think he has a graphics card :P

wasnt it Intergrated :D :D :D

:huh: you probably also factor in who has DSLorCable, and who has Dail-up. Unless you feel like sitting there forever waiting for the download to finish.

Falcon musta been talking to you Dur... lol. And no, i don't have ut2k4, but trust me, I have ways of getting a copy :lol: I could also head up the modem section :lol:

If they based it on the top ten posters...someone could spam and be a total asswipe and then just leak the beta to everyone >_>

:D :D :D


i always have a way to "obtain" things as well :P

dw, if im not chosen for the beta testing, ill get it somehow :P

If the beta testers do their job correctly, no you won't. It's not good to freely distribute an unfinished product.

/Galidan

hmm, yeah, I think, someone with a quite SPAM PC(there's a limit of SPAMness^^), should test it, too. To get the information for the minimum system requirements ^^..
I would do that with gratitude. :lol:


And yes, there's an easy way to pic the spam posters out, by just klicking on that users "see all replys". but even than I'm against giving it to top ten posters.
Cause what has posting to do with deserving to test it? :blink:
And the fact of being someone you can trust, that he doesn't copy it for everyone(not even for ONE) is a big one, isnt it?..

:huh: The minimum system requirements should just be whats required to play UT2k4 shouldn't it? I mean ya this'll be a big Big BIG Mod, but still other than MB and estimated download time theres not much required to know before hand.

Ill still wait for it to download even if it takes all day...heck ill go do something while waiting and when i get it ill play it when im ready.

:huh: I've been told it might be half a gig, thats more than a day on dialup I think.

LOL


umm... k101...


do you seriously think that it will fit on 500mb?

more like 1.5gb minimum...

Thats when Bittorents comes in for the dialup users(I'm guessing)
Also good on Bandwidth if the file gets to be 1.5gp or bigger

I don't see the reason for the top 10 posters to have the beta even if they had ut2k4
It should be experience beta testers (I don't know how to find out if you are or not,
there must be a way <_< )

I don't even have ut2k4 :angry:
but i have a pretty fast com

The demo, when we release it (and this is quite an estimate) will probably be anywhere from 75-120 MB. The full game (even more of an approximation) will stretch at least into the 600 MB range, it's even likely that it may reach a gig if we put a WHOLE lot in it (like voice acting). Hopefully we can make a BitTorrent version.

lol, it was a try.. :P ..

XD, if it becomes that much of a hassle, I wil do the minimum requirements test! Hell, it'll be a good chance to see if I'll actually be able to run it!

uhm.. but not ONLY bittorent, huh?

bittorents can be slow and could take a while to download if there are not alot of people to download from. if it's just a straight download. then it shouldn't take as long, but you gotta be considerate about bandwith tho.

so all in all, its the same none the less.

Actually we don't really have to worry about our site bandwidth...there are countless Unreal file sites that will be more than happy to host for us.

System reqs are in the FAQ, BTW.

uhm.. I don't really have bittorent, but isn't it somethin like kaaza and emule?
IF so, it'll be hard to let the betas at the testers, eh?
