Wanted: A few good warriors! - Preparation and Planning
Thank you to everyone who applied so far!
We're in the process of making the necessary server-side preparations for the testing.
We'll still need to coordinate a time for the first scheduled testing session. Proposed times will follow.
Meanwhile, I'd like to offer the testing plan documentation for review and suggestions. If there's a particular mob you'd like to try to test with, or some particular corner case dealing with mob aggro or weapon range that you'd like to see tested that isn't in the document, please mention it here. (Suggestions are welcome from everyone, not just those who applied.)
Genesis Combat Testing r253 rev. 01
Also, it's not too late to apply! :p
Re: Wanted: A few good warriors! - Preparation and Planning
Depending on how things go, there might be an opportunity for two sessions this week. To those who have applied, please indicate which (if any) of the following sessions you can attend.
Session 1: Jun 22 08:00-11:00 GMT-7 (3h)
Session 2: Jun 23 20:30-01:30 GMT-7 (5h)
Session 3: Jun 24 08:00-11:00 GMT-7 (3h)
Session 4: Jun 25 14:00-18:00 GMT-7 (4h)
Hopefully one or two of these four choices will work out for most people.
Re: Wanted: A few good warriors! - Preparation and Planning
I prefer session 2 but any of them will work.

Re: Wanted: A few good warriors! - Preparation and Planning
Aww poop. that`s 10:00 am my time I work 3`rd shift D:
looks like I`ll miss the Wednesday session
I should be able to make it for the 2`nd, and 3`rd sessions though ^^
Re: Wanted: A few good warriors! - Preparation and Planning
Looks like two can attend session 2, one for session 3. So far, it looks like session 2 is the one that's going to happen. I'll check back and make an official call in about 8 hours.
Meanwhile, please go over the testing document. We'll be going through these motions once everyone gets their characters transferred and can log in. (Admittedly, that might be all that gets done. :p)

Whoops. I sent the mail to your IM address. Sorry about that.
Re: Wanted: A few good warriors! - Preparation and Planning
if I'm still around I guess I'd be able to make it the first and third session
Re: Wanted: A few good warriors! - Preparation and Planning
Its all good.
That hot mail address is for windows live messenger so u can get direct contact with me (Its probable loaded down with spam at the moment lol )
also skype would be a great resource tool for this project due we can describe in real time what is occurring
Also I would like to recommend Fraps Free or payed is the players choice so amon and you can see what should be tweaked, based from what the players see.

and you got my regular email and cell phone number feel free to call it for an impromptu session and I will be there with in 30 min
Re: Wanted: A few good warriors! - Preparation and Planning
There's nothing worse than watching a 20 minute video ( or 4) with nothing but players playing. I think they just want the data numbers lightningclaw.
Re: Wanted: A few good warriors! - Preparation and Planning
Welp, I've got responses for sessions 1, 2 and 3, with the most for session 2 (two responses). Let's go with session 2. See ya then!
I'll post back with some initial meeting coordinates later.
Re: Wanted: A few good warriors! - Preparation and Planning
The action will take place using in-game chat, but before logging in, or if there are problems getting in, the #horizons irc channel on Stratics.com is a good place to meet up. You can use your own client, or one of the ones below.
Stratics Java IRC client
(The Java applet isn't signed with a trusted signature. You'll have to approve running it. A second window asking about allowing potentially unsafe actions may pop up too. Read this one carefully -- you answer 'No' to proceed. 'Yes' will prevent the applet from loading.)
Bristugo CGI-IRC
(Bristugo account required; connects through the Bristugo web server. Provided the page loads, it should work regardless of any firewalls or proxies.)
Re: Wanted: A few good warriors! - Preparation and Planning
Steal your capcha thing is borked ( Not displaying code ) so i am unable to register for bristugo . com Please fix or hard create an account for me thanks !!!
Re: Wanted: A few good warriors! - Preparation and Planning
I am also not able to register for the same reason.
Re: Wanted: A few good warriors! - Preparation and Planning
Hah! Thanks!
I was wondering why the spammers stopped creating accounts. Turns out reCaptcha changed their system and disabled the old keys. Should be fixed now.
Re: Wanted: A few good warriors! - Preparation and Planning
Went to log into game but. what server are we testing on, Blight I imagine?
Re: Wanted: A few good warriors! - Preparation and Planning
See my post above about meeting on IRC first
