new playtesters - again

Post by Soult »

I know that most of the users of this forum are real Matrixgames fans. So please dont blame me cause I have to say that I am frustrated how the new playtesters issue goes on... Matrixgames asks to admitt at least 20 hours a week, and there are several persons intrested to help out and to admitt this time- but no reaction from Matrix at all so far. I would really like to see EIA becoming a great game, and of course I would like to help. I would agree to pay my copy of EIA in advance, just to have the chance to become a playtester.
If Matrix asks for 20 hours a week, somebody there should spend 3 mins within the next days to say how it goes on, please.

I respectfully agree with Soult. A brief update from Matrix personnel regarding the status of selecting playtesters would put a lot of minds at ease.

Also, I assume that when playtesters are selected, a courtesy e-mail will be sent to unsuccessful applicants so that they know to stop hoping . . . [;)]

Thanks!

Well agree, I tried out as a playtester as well. I mean at best you would think you got a thank you, but no thank you. And at worst a quick, buggar off, LOL[:D]

I think that all the new playtesters have already been selected... It would be nice that matrix makes a formal anouncement about it though.

Before complaining, just make a quick search : Maurice, the guy who made the request for playertesters and will probably lead the playtest is missing (hasn't made a post) since 23 november.

So he probably has a real life issue and let's hope it's only a computer problem.

Hey guys:

I think the selection is done! I don't want to speak for Maurice BUT I think all is done and we're moving BUT there were a few missing NDAs so I'm not sure all testers are online yet???

I personally thank all of you for your willingness to help!

Thank you
Thank you
