Testlive server, let me see if I understand right...

Since launch most patches sent live were barely tested if tested at all and this created many issues after each patch.

Funcom decides to launch a Testlive server for the general public to help test out whatever new changes are being made.

Small problem, nobody knows what to test. Why, you might ask?

The patch notes are only being posted on the "closed beta" forums and those folks are still under and NDA?!?!?

Starting to think Funcom may actually be worse the SOE...

    Wel, just because they are posted on closed beta now, doesnt mean we wont see them, they may become posted.

    Also players on testlive are doing one thing..testing game stability and client stability. Both of which are very important even without looking at a specific aspect of a patch

    It's been a week since test server launched, not enough time to post patch notes?

    The players are there to test more than just server stability. Several problems with patches would have been found well before they reached Live and caused extended downtimes/game crashes or borked items.

    patch note are just written evadence of that what u will see and dont necessarily mean what will be onto live when its done. better to just take in what u see as player, report what there is that should be correct and leave in good hope that all correct should find way to last server before patchday

    Seriously man,
    There has not been crap on the AOC closed beta forums in forever either.
    They have not told the memebers there what to test in ... well since the first week the game came out.
    add to that the fact there were only about fourty of us actually still testing at all ...
    you ask if Funcom is worse than SOE ... well Funcom doesn't hold a cloth hat to SOE.
     
    anyway I cant say I actually have access to those forums or anything because of the NDA, but I can say if I had just been there the place might be a ghost town, and there might not be crap as far as patch notes go for oh say the last eight weeks.
     
    At any rate ...
    After a year and a few months with the game I never found anything that I really liked about it after the big changes and class mashes.

    Talking about patches on live servers IS under NDA.  What did you expect from Funcom ?

    Again - Just get the hell out while you can.
