Yeah well i wonder what "random means. he have a random number generator hell use to pick which email? or will he do eenie meenie meinie moe?

How I think unix plans to pick people depends on everyoens system requirements, to see how it runs on different kinds of systems (Namely why he asked everyones pc specs) and to see what needs to be improved when it is run on a certain system. That way they can fix problems and make Graal3D run great on any type of system.

this will suck if it changes too much......, does hibernate stop it from changing?

It depends on your ISP, if you have cable, chances are you do not have a static IP to some extent, if your computer is turned off or your modem is turned off for a certain period of time (a various number of hours) cable providers tend to issue you a new IP. It's safer, to be able to obtain a new IP when nessesary, but I'll tell you right now, I never turn my computers off more than 5-10 minutes unless I am deliberately changing my IP, so my cable is always moving and I always have the same IP.

So, if you are turning your computer off and you use cable, that may be why your IP is changing.

EDIT: And how will you pick 30 random applications if we have to send you our computer information?, that means that if some people dont meet the requirements that Graal 3D takes to play, they wont be able to test it out even though they were selected as one of the random 30?

Agreed, in my honest opinion, anyone who has had VIP say, pre a certain date, or for a certain minimum length of time, should get to test. I don't think it should be open to all VIP though, and they were right to not do it that way, if they did there would be a flood of newblood VIP members just trying to play it. Which would be very stupid, considering myself and I am sure many others have maintained VIP status for a year or more.

What they want is play testers, not just players hoping to get a head start, play testing involves keeping your computer up to date, knowing what your talking about and being able to accurate describe and possibly recreate bugs you have found, so that they can attempt to troubleshoot them. I am sure there will be alot of people applying who just want to run around in 3D and spam the word "1337" and will not be helpful to the game's progress at all.

You are stupid, it doesn't matter. It's a play testing run, not a play the game before everyone else. Even if you did get any sort of headstart, there is likely to be a large serverwipe before complete release anyways, so it will be in vain.

On top of that, even after completed release, don't be so sure there won't be problems with the character database, server crashes, and rolling back the server to previous points before the crash. There are a number of things in the beginning of a game's development that would make actually trying to play the game to make character progess a pointless endeavor.

If all you care about is playing the game, wait a while, even after it's released it may not be entirely stable. If you want to help with the game's testing and development stages, sit down, shutup, grab a drink and a notepad, and get to testing.

This is how it is:

30 people will test it all of this week, and then after this week it will be released to VIP members.

I believe thats how it will work, but the version the 30 random people will test out isnt really the full version.

[sarcasm]Yes, I am sure they bothered to cut out a specific demo portion of what they have created so far and compiled it alone for a "VIP testing stage".[/sarcasm]

Do you not read?, unixmad clearly stated that the version the 30 people will test will be a "collectors item" and will not be the full version. So, you really should read all the posts in a thread before making comments like that.

It doesnt matter if its leaked, really.

It doesn't matter if it's leaked or that it even exists.

You sir, are an idiot, there is no such thing as "random". Nothing is random, there is always something that is the determining factor in why something is chosen or happens etc.

He will pick based on the specs you supply in your application, christ.

That's exactly what I said.

Yes, I was agreeing and adding that it doesn't even matter that it exists at all.

Are you stupid? Do you not think?

Of course it's not the full version, it is everything they have done so far, it is the engine and the core graphics and movement, therefor lacking content, which is exactly what he said. The full version will have content, I never said this would be the full version, but merely what has been completed so far to be tested. It's not a demo, it's the compiled "what we have so far for people to test". Think before you post.

[Milkdude99]

Why don't all of you just quit with the name calling and lashing out at each other for things that don't matter anyway? Ehh?
