Testing to me = something scientific, against a common control. Direction & Dialogue

Presently all we have is a free for all, no frame of reference, no controls, no meaningful dialogue. How the hell can anything be tested?

Personal weapons need addressing still, then there is still some controversy about suits and their role. Vehicles need a whole lot of work (no just kitten missiles off from the game).

But the worst bit is dialogue, it seems IRC or bust. Forums are full of threads about issues, no order given by the forum creator, no feedback, from devs. Like this post, it's a bitching ground to let off steam and a place to state the obvious, but you may as well talk to the wall. At least then you get some sound reflection.

Testers, and i use the term loosely, are basically players along for the ride. There are guys out there who try to test and give great feedback but as is oft stated not in irc, no come back. They don't know if their work is valued or skipped out with the trash. They might not be CCP employees, but a personal message or dialogue about findings would go a long way, we all then know you thoughts and direction.

CCP, if you want peeps to test then give peeps the ability to receive feed back. Create specific threads for different issues, ask us to test certain things, rather than issue pointless distractions like a tournament. If you CBA doing that, just release the game now in time for Xmas and see how it goes. You may as well choose the latter if it is to continue like this.

That talking to.a brickwall bit is true, my dinner last night was more responsive than ccp.
