Hey everyone,

While I'm sure this is obvious, I'll say it anyways. If you don't want to join us on Facebook or Twitter, you don't have to. And it's not like (pun not intended) we're never going to reveal what we'd like to. Anything we want to reveal will all be done over time and before the game is out so everyone can decide what they want to do with the best information available. So, in the worst case scenario, you just get the information a little bit later.

And I forget who mentioned it earlier but yes, the final result is the combination of the numbers for our English, French, and German fan pages on each of those social networks. So it's not 200,000 each (ie, not 600,000)... it's 200,000 total for Facebook and 30,000 total for Twitter.

Die Ankündigung, dass die Spieltests laufen, wurde auch bei uns im Ankündigungsforum gepostet - zeitgleich mit Sean. Ich möchte euch deshalb bitten, auch dort weiterzudiskutieren. Danke
P.S.: Es handelt sich um einen Spieltest, nicht um einen Betatest.

 

General Discussion -> Morgan Webb no longer moderating TOR Comic-Con panel?

Now that I look at the programming schedule at comic-con, where it says the speakers of the panel, it lists nothing about morgan webb at all. I was really excited that she was going to be a part of the panel, so I'm trying to figure this out.

Does anyone know if she canceled or something or what?
This was a new twist so some outlets may not have gotten the news in time but yes, she is still moderating the panel. From my understanding (granted, she didn't tell me herself), Morgan is really excited about this and is probably going to brag to Adam and Kevin.

The answer might need to be officially stated somewhere, because... it has started!
Being able to have the community help us test The Old Republic is very important and valuable to the development process. The Game Testing Program allows community members to give us quality feedback so we can make adjustments and have a highly effective service and entertaining experience when we do launch. Since we have some time until the game is complete, some of the information testers have access to has not been released and may actually drastically change based on tester feedback before we go public with it.

This is why we take violations of any of our user agreements very seriously. Our expectation is that players of The Old Republic will follow the terms of the Game Testing Agreement and ensure that the confidential pre-release information we’re sharing with community members remains confidential. We will take action if that is not the case.

Anyone caught promoting confidential information (such as linking to, reposting, quoting, etc) will be contacted and such information removed from our community. Actions that can occur due to this can be simply removing the post to being suspended to being completely and indefinitely suspended from the entire service (including after we launch).

i have just one question. can you just tell people you got picked to test the game but not anything about it, or is that bad too. just want to know in case i do get picked because i would want to scream it from the rooftops that i got picked (but only if it is ok lol0
Seitis responded but I'll just make it official. You can tell someone that you have indeed been invited to Game Testing but you can't really say anything more than that. And by "saying", I mean speaking aloud or posting it... that doesn't include forwarding your invite to someone or taking a screen capture of it and posting it somewhere. That last part isn't directed at you, darkflm. I'm justbeing specific since some people may not realize that.

It states you can't publicly state anything more than that. Users who are in testing will be given private areas to give feedback and communicate with the TOR team.

So depending on the test phases types, I might be more helpful for checking the dialogs and VO in French than in English.... even if I always play all video games in English. And your selection tool could hardly guess I speak French as I don't post on the French part of the Forums either.

As there are certainly a quite a few thousands persons in this case, it would be interesting to figure it out or let them the choice of language.



/Have a nice WE.
We already capture language selection in Essential Info (under "My Account".

General Discussion -> Game Testing and You! [Game Testing Discussion Thread]
Beitrag von SeanDahlberg am 10.07.2010 um 02:58 Uhr

First, we definitely share in everyone’s excitement. This is another step in preparing The Old Republic for launch and the team is just as eager for this as all of you!

Since there is a lot of questions and discussion about Game Testing, I thought it might be a good time to start a new thread. A few threads you may want to check out, though:I’ve been reading through a lot of the posts and there are some really good questions in there so I’ll do my best to answer them.

First thing, what we announced is “Game Testing". This is currently underway and will end near the release of the game and happen in a variety of stages. We will be inviting people to different stages and just because you get invited to one stage doesn’t mean you’ll be invited back to another one. Unlike testing that many of you may have participated in with other games, we aren’t looking for people to test “everything". Each of our tests are focused on a certain or a set of goals and areas. We want people to have clear direction on what we’d like help evaluating.

The Game Testing Program is all about us validating the features and design of the game. If we find an area that people just aren’t enjoying as much as we’d like, it shows us that we need to adjust that feature. That is much easier to do when you have clear goals and ideas as to what we are looking for instead of just “the game".

Another thing I see people inquiring about is what I mean when I keep calling things the “service". While the game is a big part of it, it isn’t everything. We look at the entire experience as the service; the website, the community, the game, etc. This holds as true now as it will once we're done with development and fully launched the entire service.

Yes, testing is only in North America now. Currently the service is all supported here but it won’t always be here. Our entire community is very important to us. As you’ll note, with few exceptions, our updates go out simultaneously in English, French, and German. This is because we treat the community as one as much as possible. But we have some time till Spring 2011 (although it is getting closer every day!) and right now, we’re doing what is best for the service in the long-run. We could of just not announced what locales we’re testing in now but we felt it better to be upfront with our community. We also could of held back on testing altogether and not start until we can in all of the areas we’ll be launching the service but I think most of you will agree that we would lose valuable time and feedback if we did that. We’re not announcing just when yet, but we definitely plan on opening up phases of Game Testing to other countries before we launch (and not as a last minute “Open" test).

A couple quick notes/answers:
  • We didn’t announce that Game Testing Began today, we announced that it is underway… subtle difference but there is one.
  • Make sure your email address is up-to-date! This means that the account name that you use to log in to the website is the email address we will be sending an invitation to if you are selected.
  • For those worried about missing any of our transactional emails, make sure you add no-reply@bioware.swtor.com to your address book!
  • How often will we send out updates? As often as possible! It will be different time intervals for different tests.
  • You do not need to sign-up again if you did previously but I would recommend making sure your Additional Details and System Scan are up to date (as well as your email address)! And you can do this any time under "My Account".
  • What data do we track? A lot. If you read the Terms of Service and Game Testing Agreement, you will get a good idea of it all.
  • Since this is all part of the service, any accounts that are in a suspended status when we are sending out invitations will not be invited. As I said, it’s a total service and your account is treated the same throughout the entire service. If you are temporarily suspended, once your suspension is up, you will be eligible again for testing.
  • Speaking of Community – No, post count does not weigh any in the decision of who gets into testing. If community participation was a factor, it would be based on the behavior and quality of interactions with the rest of the community.
And last but not least, I’ll reiterate the point that being able to have the community help us test The Old Republic is very important and valuable to the development process. The Game Testing Program allows community members to give us quality feedback so we can make adjustments and have a highly effective service and entertaining experience when we do launch. Our expectation is that players of The Old Republic will follow the terms of the Game Testing Agreement and ensure that the confidential pre-release information we’re sharing with community members remains confidential.

This thread is now open for questions and discussion!

It will go to the email address your account is tied to (what you log into the website with). If your email address is not up to date, I GREATLY recommending going into "My Account" and updating it.

Never too late! Well, at least until launch, then it might be too late. But go to the Testing Portal and it'll let you update your info there, to include redoing the system scan.

It has nothing to do with us prioritizing North American customers. It has to do with BioWare Austin is in Austin, Texas. We have not launched our full infrastructure and connecting from Europe to North America on an in-development product will not give you the best experience. Once we have our European Infrastructure rolled out, we'll be testing there, too.

If picking testers had anything to do with community discussions, it definitely would not be based on post count. On the quality of posts is definitely a possibility and someone who's been indefinitely suspended is another one.

All four players were level eight; I believe they were slightly higher in the G4 video, I'll check when I get to my home DVR.
This is indeed another take of what happened during E3. In here you have Brian Arndt as the Smuggler, Rob Chestney as the Trooper, Cory as the Jedi Knight, and I played the Jedi Consular.

This was something shown during E3 on G4 but we wanted to give you a version that had no cuts from start to finish, where you got to hear the VO, and saw the same setup tackled in a slightly different way.

Beitrag von SeanDahlberg am 02.07.2010 um 22:43 Uhr

During E3 we gave live demos of multiplayer game play in The Old Republic for the press. Now we want to share the demo with the community! This demo shows how a diverse group of players use their abilities to complement one another in battle.

Commander Narlock readies his troops for an Imperial assault. As he does, all four Republic classes; a Jedi Consular, Jedi Knight, Smuggler, and Trooper join together to assist in fighting off the attack. Watch as each player does his or her part to take on the enemies, and beat the Imperial Troopers and Imperial Breach Droids.

See how group combat will be a thrilling part of The Old Republic in this Multiplayer Game Play Demo.

Während der E3 haben wir der Presse eine Mehrspieler-Gameplay-Demo vorgeführt. Jetzt könnt ihr euch die Demo selbst ansehen! Schaut euch an, wie eine Gruppe aus unterschiedlichen Spielern sich darum bemüht, ihre vielfältigen Fähigkeiten effektiv zu nutzen, um sich im Kampf gegenseitig zu ergänzen. Commander Narlock bereitet seine Truppen auf einen imperialen Anschlag vor. Während er das tut, verbünden sich alle vier Klassen der Republik – ein Jedi-Konsular, Jedi-Ritter, Schmuggler und ein Elitesoldat –, um den Angriff abzuwehren. Seht selbst, wie jeder Spieler seinen Teil dazu beiträgt, es mit den Feinden aufzunehmen, und besiegt die Imperialen Elitesoldaten und Brecherdroiden.

Überzeugt euch selbst von den spannenden Gruppenkämpfen in The Old Republic in dieser Multiplayer Gameplay Demo!

[EDIT] Update: Das Video ist nun auch in Deutsch lokalisiert verfügbar! Der Link wurde angepasst.

Zitat von Gulomi
Sean Dahlberg hat sich im englischen Forum gemeldet und angekündigt, dass es in ein bis zwei Stunden das endgültige Video von der E3 geben wird.
Für alle, die des Englischen nicht mächtig sind:

Unser heutiges Freitags-Update wird sich wahrscheinlich noch ein bis zwei Stunden verzögern. Hierbei handelt es sich um unser letztes Video von der E3.

Bitte entschuldigt die Verzögerungen bei den Übersetzungen, aber ihr könnt euch sicher vorstellen, das bei uns gerade einiges los ist

Online-Rollenspiele boomen: World of Warcraft gilt als momentan zugkräftigstes MMO. Die E3 2010 brachte einige neue Online-Rollenspiele, die Blizzards Platzhirsch vom Thron stoßen könnten. Dabei begeisterten Titel wie Star Wars: The Old Republic oder Warhammer 40k: Dark Millennium Online oder Final Fantasy 14 Online. Welches MMO ist Ihr Favorit?

Ich denke, der aktuelle Stand ist durchaus noch ausbaubar [Umfrage bei PCGames.de]
