What exactly is being tested? EVE-DUST link: Test updated orbital bombardment mechanics

I believe that the OP is pointing out that the first us Dust players know about the changes to orbital bombardment is when the Eve players are asked to test it.

Kovinis Sparagas wrote:This is a good point. Why we don't have test server? Because of the following reasons:
- The turnaround time between CCP and SONY's QA is about two weeks, so you'd get at most one build between patches, which will be already outdated by the time it gets to us
- You probably need to pay Sony for the patches
- If you drop the QA you'll may end up with a dead console. You can make your way around a devkit with a botched patch, but not a production unit. This would be a PR and support nigthmare.

The test server requires making copies of the client and then patching one client with the test server updates and the other client (the original) with the current updates.
As far as I know we can't do that on dust, nor manually alter files, so this can't be done on the ps3. UNLESS, they provided a separate download for a test client to be stored on the PS3...
In any case, EVE is on the PC which allows a million more degrees of freedom than the PS3, so having a test client just seems far from reality. (And afaik we do have a test server, we just can't access it. It's called Singularity.)

Good points, though I doubt there is much technically preventing CCP deploying a separate test client.
Quote: (And afaik we do have a test server, we just can't access it. It's called Singularity.) That's just the test Eve cluster, it doesn't include Dust battle servers as far as I know. CCP would need to create test battle servers as well, and presumably in all regions if they want to test with realistic latency scenarios.

Hate to burst your bubble, but we've known that updated orbitals are coming soonTM for a LONG time - so long that the feedback thread has been unstickied.
And incase there is any confusion, just because this is the first mass test for the new orbitals, it is highly unlikely they are coming in 1.7. |

Yeah. We heard you were writing a dev blog? It isn't out yet and apparently some of the guys are already sharpening their Nova knives. This is no threat. After all you, as a dev, are still kind of a god in Dust. But I fear I might get injured when they lose their patience! |

I wish I was a god in DUST. Seen any videos of my playing? I just get owned... hard... :(
The dev blog is going through a few final reviews, sorry about that. It's important though. Not sure if you have noticed by what I spew on the forums but my writing, which is more of my just smashing my head on the keyboard in an effort to transfer thought to computer, is sometimes a bit of a mess. :P The review process helps make me look like I know what I am talking about and less of an 8 year old. :)

I know what you're talking about. As somebody who writes for a gaming website I feel like it's the same for me. Can you give us at least some kind of headline translated with google 100 times for now? |

*slams face on keyboard*
It was the best of times, it was the worst of times, it was the age of wisdom, it was the age of foolishness, it was the epoch of belief, it was the epoch of incredulity, it was the season of Light, it was the season of Darkness, it was the spring of hope, it was the winter of despair, we had everything before us, we had nothing before us, we were all going direct to Heaven, we were all going direct the other way - in short, the period was so far like the present period, that some of its noisiest authorities insisted on its being received, for good or for evil, in the superlative degree of comparison only.
see? I think the 'K' is up my nose hang on a sec... nope it was an 'X'... my bad.

They probably want to test the EVE side first because the DUST side is partly controlled by Sony.

Because in order for EVE players to get onto the test server they have to create and maintain a completely separate installation of the game with a separate patch to match the test server. Trying to do that on a PS3, while possible, is asking a little much from some of the players of console games. Additionally, it would also mean basically licensing a completely separate game on the PS3 as it would be the equivalent of having a whole parallel game on their network that would be maintained completely separately from the original. Finally, we're already low on players on the main server. Why make it even less by having all the "gotta have it nows" switch to playing on a test server?

OK, mass test is over. So here are the impressions:
- Beacons have to be captured before being able to shoot - about a 3 minute times. These beacons can be contested if someone comes close to it (or connects, no idea)
- Kill mails are here
- After connecting to the district a new channel is created with the mercs down there and EVE players - voice works. Can't tell the exact mechanics
- No Fanfest style beacon info as to the state of the district, boo. Also it works as a bracket, so it's almost invisible in blobs.
- At most 10 ships from each side can connect to the district.
Screenshots incoming |
