Open Call for more GGWAW Tester Applications *CLOSED*

Post by MButtazoni »

Hello All.

GGWaW development and testing is ramping up and we are at a point where we need will soon need some more Testers. As such, I need to start the process of putting together another list of tester applications. There are two types of testers we are looking for; do you fit into one of the following categories?

A) A Tester that pays attention to detail analyzes every combat and move in hopes to learn the intricacies of the game, learning the game is as much, if not more, fun than actually playing the game. Someone who spends hours trying to figure out the rock, paper, scissor effects of a game.

B) A Tester that plays for the pure enjoyment of the experience, not everything may make sense as you play, but that's ok, after playing 50 times or so it will start to sink in. Someone who doesn't read the manual but will put a tutorial through it's paces to get up to speed as quick as possible.

We do need both types of people in the near future, please do not apply if you cannot put in the effort and time it will take to make this one of the best strategy wargames that the puiblic has seen in a long time.


Send me an Email to *Beta signup closed* with the subject line: GGWAW Tester Application

1) Your name
2) Your address
3) Your phone number
4) Your Matrix Forums Name
5) Your Computer Operating System
6) Processor / Amount of Memory
7) Video Card Brand / Amount of Memory

12) Your play preference: A) PBEM or B) Single Player vs. AI
13) Your affirmation that you are willing and able to be a tester and some idea as to how many hours you could plug into the game on a regular basis per week.

(remember following these directions is a good playtester characteristic)


Once I have selected the group of testers I want to use, I will send them an Non-Disclosure Agreement that I will need to have before you can be a part of the process.

That is all.

Thanks for the applications all.

I will keep you posted on how we evolve the testing of GGWAW. There will be many phases where we add additional testers. We need some now to do some hardcore testing of the game balance. In the future we will need some testers that have never played the game to run through the in-game Tutorials. Yet more will be needed to read and give opinions on the User Manual as we near completion.

So have faith; if you've shown interestyou will probably be participationg in some from or another in the next few months.
