Test Server for All

UNFAIR, that's all I can say right now.

I am not an android user, well I am but its a really old android, so I don't have the same pleasure as the android users have, of trying out arcanes and really cool things.

This is highly unfair, ever since I joined this game in season 4, ive wanted to try a maul. With the coming of the 'test server', I thought id finally get that chance.
LOL, my dreams failed me, doesn't even surprise me anymore...my luck in this game is pitiful, and im not talking about lockeds!

I propose a test server for EVERYONE, which I know can be done, why? because we are playing the game right now aren't we?

This test server should be for everyone, and we should all be able to have unlimited plat and locked on it, including all the maps, and including pvp. This wont be great for sts, I know but how unfair is it that we don't get to try maul and kershal when the android users do. If you ARE doing it, then why just keep it for a couple people, I also understand its apples safety stuff or something I forgot.

Im just saying, you cant give candy to one kid in the classroom, and let the rest of the class miss out, ive been in that situation and my teacher was mad at me, so cmon guys, let us use this too, but for what we really want.

Either that , or take away the free 2k plat from the current test servers, then I wont really feel like im missing out on an opportunity because tombs will come by later....

2k plat and a chance to try arcanes and open locked, whered this bonus even come from???

not a suggestion, more of a proposal and theres too much spam in the suggestions forums with rich people asking for things to make them richer, ain't nobody got time for dat

What?

Do you know the reason why they give plat in test server?

1.For elixirs
2.For anks
3.To craft gears quickly

But not for opening locks....and this time they have stopped giving us the arcane rings like they did on the first one...so this time everyone is playing with almost their own gear.

It takes a week sometimes weeks for iOS to approve things. If they waited to do a test server until then that would mean the content would get pushed back 3-4 weeks. The plat is not for lockeds.

People responding on that are rich, r u kidding? Ser runs around with Sam ring and elon bow , and she worked for it Ik ik but how come the people on test server all have elon gear, dude I use expedition rifle, this is unfair , u guys aren't even counting , cause 1 ur on the test server and 2 if ur not I know u and prahi have arxanes in game, ladies please.

Please think about your situation and take a look at yourself and your gear before u comment again here.

Ty:)

If there is no 2k plats, then how we can test the release?

Imagine a people level 41 with useless gears and no 2k plats in test server, people can't test the release if they don't have great gears.

I'm sorry, what does gear have to do with the test server? Or Sera for that matter? She's been playing since season 1 or 2 so yea she has stuff.

The test server is to test the new content before it goes live NOT GEAR. That's it. It's not for anything else. The 2k plat is for revives, elixirs and buying legendary gear in the shop if you need it.

It is open for a short amount of time then it's done. What is the point of sts waiting weeks for IOS for 3-4 days of the test server? Yes, I can get on it, but even if I couldn't it wouldn't be a big deal.

No need to get all snarky because someone comments that you feel like out "gears" you.

You made a post and I commented including a helpful link as to why they don't use all platforms. I fail to see the problem in that.

That's unfair to the ios and chrome players, who probably make up more of the game than android, why is it our fault ios takes longer to approve things ? things should be equal for EVERYONE

and that means if you get to use a samael in test server, we should be able to use a samael in a test server. totally unfair and in my opinion unprofessional.

Im "snarky" for a reason

You have a sam? T/F

You have used a mythic elondrian weapon? T/F

I rest my case, gem.

as for me I go false for both, but I think you shdve guessed that by now

Oh yeah? don't lie tell me how many people have crate bows and ethyls in the test server please, how many mages are using a devourer staff? how many warriors are using conquistador

You fail to understand me and my issue, and all-in-all this thread!

I am playing on test server, and anyone who knows me (mainly friends and guild) knows that the only mythic items i have are: a lunar pendant, Grimm pet, and lvl36 mythic armor and helm for mage.
everything else i use is legendary items (lvl40 magma totem, lvl41 expedition rifle, lvl41 elondrian ring)
I don't have any arcanes (I wish i did, but i don't)

The test server's purpose is to test the new content, providing feedback, suggestions, and posting bugs found in the new content. (locks are kinda expensive on the test server :( )
Because of what happened on the last test server (for planar arena), nearly everyone was testing arena with arcane and mythic items, giving STS inaccurate feedback

Those "inaccurate feedbackers" are the culprits...now i get it...giving the wrong info to them means trouble to us...

now i wonder do those ppl have a little bit of sense for its consequences?....

STS can't make test server for iOS and Chrome users, it's because Apple's ToS, also Chrome.

If you wanna complain iOS and Chrome users can't play Test Server, then go complaining to Apple and Chrome, not STS.

test servers are for testing not trying out mauls.

Apart from the fact it can be done way better and deliver more accurate feedbacks for now this how it is, a mess.

Android phones cost lesser than ios anyway, i advice you to buy one if you really wanna help testing this bad.

or sell off the current one and buy an android..

Op you seem extremely cunfussed as what the test server is here for. I suggest u stop bing so selfish because u don't have this and that person has that don't blame others or sts. The test server is to better the quality of the tumbs when launched in the real game . I really don't even understand what your even talking about your jealuse that some one gets 2kplat so they can testthe server?

Ugh, when I read all these posts, I get mad.
One more guy that complain on rich people, I'm not rich myself but I don't get jealous.
I've tested the server and there is nothing you miss out, just lags and dc. Just because you can't test the server doesn't mean you have to be annoying. -_-
+ you are rich youself BUY A KERSH OR WHATEVER IN THE GAME.

Thanks x :3

75% of the time I don't "run around with a ring on". I share ownership of a ring and have for approximately one month. This was only possible because my partner and I worked and saved a long time for it, and share a unique level of trust. I personally only actually use it for speed runs, very little else.

There are also many pets I prefer over sam for many situations. It is amusing that people seem to think that serancha is my only character, and I never use anything but the best gear all the time. Anyone who knows anything about me knows I spend much of my time running in legendaries with epic or legendary pets. both on Serancha and multiple alts.

I don't believe Rare even mentioned me, nor did I post on this thread. If you have issues with me, which is clear since I am only one of hundreds of people posting on the forum, that is your own problem.

Blame apple not stg lol.

If you are google+ user and late to enter test server, dont enter at all.
You will find no end game gears to buy for your level 41 toon which have 2k plats and nothing at all.

A decent pink gear which cost 100k will cost there like 5-10m golds if not more than that. Or maybe not in the auction at all.
I find it quite depressing how people who can enter test server with their main toon and inventory assets, buy whole stuffs from auc and stash them to merch.
I saw some people selling grims 50m per egg in test server.
I don't get it. Give people chance to have decent gears and test properly.
My guest profile is been deleted for the patch issue and i had to make new toon in test server and found no gears in auction and some people were shouting selling mythic bows expeditions bows .

Infact test server is currently a mess, only a few part of the players actually "test" and the feedbacks are as inaccurate as they can get. Again the feedbacks are only from the top players of the game.

I was giving away weapons,armors,helms and eggs ( grimm and blinky, i saved from Halloween and had it on my stash).Then one time i asked in guild chat of the beta guild if any warrior wanted a weapon,i gave it to the first who said "me", few minutes later he gave me the weapon and showed his own weapon.....He don't wanted because it was only with normal gems -.-.
But the point is you DONT need to merch in the test server, the gold will stay there, i gave my items to strangers because i saw the insane prices on auction, merching in a test server is not a smart thing to do.

80% of the players are just merching there.

Back on topic as to why we don't have Chrome and iOS versions of the Test Client. I stand behind what I posted previously at http://www.spacetimestudios.com/show...=1#post1782749

We all want great new stuff to play with. Solving the above issues were not simply done. They are days or weeks of work to address. That same man time, in my opinion, could be better spent working on making fun new stuff (like, for example, work on the needed refinement to skills). Also, if we took those days or weeks of extra time to address these issues, we would be delaying when new content would actually get on to the live game. I think everyone can get behind getting fun new stuff faster out to the game.

We have enough people come out on Android alone to meet our Public Test objectives.

Thanks in advance for your understanding.

HelloSam,
is the test server just for just gathering bugs reports and clearing them before everything goes live or also for gathering feedbacks about playability and tweaking stuff?

If test servers where made to gather both different datas then things can be done way better than they are now by:
#1. Giving everyone a standard gear each day.
For example:
1st day: Everyone runs with a standard full legendary set.
2nd: 2/5 mythics.
[...]
Then a thread would be open each day for collecting feedbacks.
This way you would collect a more homogenous and objective 360º feedback. To incentivate people to actually run the maps and post what they think you could give a prize by selecting randomly a winner from the threads when tests finish.

#2. Remove the cs. It would have no use anymore since the gears are automatically given and would make these pseudo merchers concentrated on testing rather than merching as it is supposed to be.

#3. Remove every map that has nothing to do with the maps that need to be tested. Dunno if its doable but less data to manage, less distractions like players running km3, sitting in towns merching or pvping.

This is because noone actually wants to test with their normal, real game gear. Everyone wants free mauls and kershals and/or wants to run with the few elo weap/arcane ring guys who are on the server.

I joined this Beta Test guild and tried to form a group a few times. Normal real game gear (pink/part myth), no combo elixirs, no revenge buffs. As I believe this is how we can get actually useful results and feedback. Noone responded.

I sincerely hope that someone else is also trying to do this and that we'll see feedback based upon the experience of such groups. Since myth bow/gun/bonesaw + arcane ring + multiple para gems + Samael/SnS + combo lix + nonstop revenge revives is NOT the feedback, that will help STS make new content actually playable and fun for more than 5% of the endgame population. With 5% being a generous number.

Not only but tne test server,,,

We have bg trouble at main server for playing arcane lgnd,,
Its keep patching every time try to sign in,,,
The worst case is,,i try to swap to another room to pvp,,and all i get its patching again,,cmon? In te middle of game??

And also,,
I have big space memory,,and if the patch failed,,it said that the problem is my memory are full,,

Please anyone can fix this problem,,it annoying,,

Dumbledore..... Wtf Men!!! ..... Ur a season 4 player n im a season5 player then ur weapon is expedition rifle..... Bro leme tell ya im using a new scythe perf n myth gears perf n ring n amu perf..... Complete set bro...... While u! U dont have a good wep! Ya know why u couldnt get "Great Stuffs" ? "CAUSE YOUR A LAZY PERSON!!!" ...... I cant believe it..... If im in ur situation i would be challenge..... You know why? " cause i like to defeat all Who is in LB" .......

We all want things we can't have that's life

Stop blaming sts because you bought an ios device, this is nonsense. You can play on live server without any issue.

1. Its limited my dream was a arcane pet but instead I got http://tapatalk.imageshack.com/v2/14...47d4c38dee.jpghttp://tapatalk.imageshack.com/v2/14...f0546de21f.jpg
2. The 2k plat is for mainly anks and gears for your level I used 500+ plat for anks and still bought some with gold.
3. Its hard for sts to have the test server for iOS because the company that produces it won't let them and makes it hard.
4. I use google account but still got the items above from working hard.
