Title: Announcing the UW Demo II Public Beta
Post by: Goober5000 on November 05, 2009, 08:46:24 pm
The Terran-Vasudan War Project is getting ready to release its long-awaited Act II of Chapter 1 as a playable campaign, but it needs your help!  We've set up a private forum to serve as a semi-public beta.  The campaign is in a playable state and is nearly ready for release, but we just need a few people to encourage us to run the last lap. :)

Post in this thread if you're interested in participating.

When you care enough to get the most cruel of testers.

:sigh:

NGTM-1R has been added.  However, I should point out one thing.  While we were perfectionists to the point of masochism on ST:R, we aren't going to be trying anywhere near that hard on TVWP. :p

Hmm...do I want to spoil myself on this before it's completely finished and released?

Eh, what the hell, I've been thinking about replaying Chapter 1 in the near future as-is.  Sign me up.  I can at least promise that I won't be nearly as cruel as he will. :p

What you see is what you'll get, subject to certain fixes.  So in that sense, it's not really spoiling anything. :)

I'll do some testing.

I can also try to do some testing, I liked the first demo and I'm fond of old style ships.

Nice, nice :). I always found the TVW project to be a brilliant idea. You can count me in.

Well, if you want a test-player who's just medium-skilled, then I volunteer. Of course if this isn't against your trust policy ;)

Okay, I think that's enough people... too many cooks spoil the broth and all that.  Thanks to all who volunteered. :)

Damn school for making me miss the oppurtunity of the month by 3 hours! If you guys need one more beta tester, I'm available. I would assume you don't though. Oh well, I guess I'll get over it. :mad:

Yeah, you'll get over it when you play the fully tested and bug-free campaign. ;)

Phew...just finished playing through the demo again, so I guess it's time to get testing.  I forgot how much of a challenge it was flying without targeting sensors. :)

(I just wish I could figure out why I didn't save all of the release files in my big ol' FS2 Stuff folder.  My past self wasn't too bright.)

Scroll up, Titan.

This looks good. I loved the first Demo. A lot.

 Will you make any change to Chapter I part One ?
Title: Re: Announcing the TVWP Demo II Public Beta
Post by: Goober5000 on November 15, 2009, 02:00:34 pm
No substantial changes.  But we will fix a few bugs here and there.

Bit confused by the title. How many demos of chapter one are there going to be?
Title: Re: Announcing the TVWP Demo II Public Beta
Post by: Goober5000 on November 15, 2009, 08:37:34 pm
Well, there are three acts, and we're releasing one act at a time.  So, two "demos" followed by the full release.

Damnit, I should read all of a thread more often...

lol.

With any luck though, you'll be able to play Act II on Thanksgiving. :)

Post by: carbine7 on November 20, 2009, 06:14:57 pm
Yay. That's what I was thinking. The beta seemed a little too close to Thanksgiving for coincidence...
Fingers crossed.

You seem to have a habit of releasing things on Christmas. :P

No worries. I understand completely...  :p

Hmm.  We may have hit a snag, as Nuclear1, who was supposed to help with the final TVWP push, is being deployed.  Stay tuned.

Is he having issues with his launch gear? :confused:
Title: Re: Announcing the TVWP Demo II Public Beta

Deployed means he's in the military and being shipped out, probably overseas.
