Leff12345 Posted October 9, 2016 Share Posted October 9, 2016 I've been trying to find any topic related to this, but haven't found any yet. Please do however note to me here if it happens to already exist a topic/suggestion related to this. Suggestion Name: Version Tester Team/Group Suggestion Description: Similar to a beta testing group were they go around and search/look for bugs, etc. on the upcoming version which has not been released for the public yet. Not entirely sure if this is hard or not to be implemented, but I believe it will bring much more improvement in both effectivness and quality in the upcoming versions of the game and how the whole progress gets handled. I imagine this can be open for everyone to apply for, almost as a team or a group, or maybe as the TruckersMP CC "recruitment" went around were it was just a group not related to the TruckersMP team in any way. Or it can be closed for the internal TruckersMP team instead. Any example images: Nope Why should it be added?: There have been recent situations were a new version has contained some bigger and smaller bugs which have been distracting for the gameplay. And as mentioned above with the effectivness, it will reduce the amount of work to track down and fix (if needed) the released version as it has then of course already been "examined" by the testing group/team (= less work & more quality). So this is also just a general suggestion, not excactly targeted against a spesific event or version, etc. I assume new versions are already being tested internally, but if it gets expanded to a bigger area as a group or similar, I believe it would be better for the devs and the whole TruckersMP progress generally. I'm not disliking the current progress and new versions as for now. It's amazing how it goes and turns out. I just want to suggest an addition or improvement for the current system Edit: I now got to know that the TruckersMP team does already have testers provided by the whole team, and not just a few people. But there can still be something similar to this added if this is valid and/or needed. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Cooper's Freightmaster Posted October 9, 2016 Share Posted October 9, 2016 All testing is done internally thus an external rank is not needed. We have 80+ potential testers 1 Cooper's Freightmaster In Game Administrator Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Leff12345 Posted October 9, 2016 Author Share Posted October 9, 2016 ^ @Cooper's Freightmaster Ah, ok. I thought it was just a few who did the testing, but seems like I'm mistaking. Thanks anyway for the answer. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Aestrial Posted October 9, 2016 Share Posted October 9, 2016 I think this is a great idea. A small group of people, similar to beta testers, could test the new version, and report any bugs found to Devs to iron out, instead of having multiple updates released after. Although, I'm pretty sure the TMP Team have beta/version testers already, so I'm not sure if this would be needed. Good idea though.

heyhococo Posted October 9, 2016 Share Posted October 9, 2016 I believe beta testing is done internally, hence the experimental server comes on every now and then. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

We have 80+ potential testers so how come they always find game breaking bugs on release? such as the flag dlc hmm 1 No electrons were harmed during the creation, transmission or reading of this posting.

Cooper's Freightmaster Posted October 9, 2016 Share Posted October 9, 2016 It is nearly impossible to stop all bugs from entering release Cooper's Freightmaster In Game Administrator Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Guest Posted November 19, 2016 Share Posted November 19, 2016 We got a team of 80 people to draw from, not going to add more just to test things. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
