Alpha Testing

Well... color me surprised.  I had moved into the 'vaporware' camp after years of nothing.  But looks like they finally moved out of pre-alpha and into some alpha testing:  https://seforums.pantheonmmo.com/content/forums/topic/14549/alpha-pledges-save-the-date

Hopefully it doesn't take years for them to get from Alpha to Beta/Release.

    Yeah... I tend to be more of a lurker than a forum poster.

    Thanks for the welcome though :)

    LOL...

    I feel bad for the Alpha testers, you all keeps getting promises, but get crap all the time. 


    If VR was having server problems, why didn't they take the servers down several days ago to start working on it outside of their test VMs.

    All that faith VR was trying to build up, is now mostly just lost on Alpha players who were already skeptical. 

    VR pushed the boundaries too hard again outside of thier limitations, and yet again instead of listening to VIPs where they claim most of us don't work in the industry / don't have experience (wrong, I bet over 50% of VIPs work in similar industries in Fortune 500s..., hence dropping this money)

    They persisted to stick to their guns, and yet again had to make a tough choice. There was absolutely no reason for this. Like I said they could have taken the servers down days ago. 

    All PA testers have been limping along anticipating a wipe for over 2 weeks. Instead VR took the servers down almost 2 hours late last night, and didn't communicate a single time.

    All of that open dialogue VR had at the begining of 247 died over a month ago. VR can claim the patch and fixes weren't ready yet until late last night,  but that should have been their first clue to delay with less than 12 hours from a public launch. I just don't know if I will ever understand their behind the scenes talk.

    It's not in Alpha yet though. Still in Pre-Alpha. This was just a limited test to allow the Alpha pledges to experience the Pre-Alpha for one day. and it is very much still pre-alpha in looks and gameplay.
