Can we volunteer to beta-test Thief III

[howie]

It's idea. I'm not sure how the whole process works in making a video game but I figured why not ask anyways. Has any game maker ever had the fans test their wares before the game is released ? If you think I kidding, I'm not, I'd even take some time off work to play the beta.

And now a word from our sponsor....hopefully.

Might be a cool idea Howie but don't think they will but then again who knows??? LOL If they can public beta test the patch for DIIX at Blizzard...why not??? Guess we can hope anyway Ta and Good Hunting!

Yeah!! Me too! I want that job!

I'd beta test it if they paid me. No way I'd give 'em the benifit of my expert Thief skills for nothing. That would be un-american.

*raises hand*

I'd do it for free. (no skill here)

YES! $49.95 plus applicable tax some time in early 2004

HAHAHAHAHAH, tBM, very funny and most likely very true...as the way things seem to mostly happen these days with new games! But we can hope there won't be too much trouble with it once it's released???? Crossing fingers, eyes, toes, legs, and upper body torso parts, LOL Ta and Good Hunting!

Something to consider--beta testing is done on (possibly) not the release that goes to the public. It also means you have to sign disclosure agreements, meaning you can't mention anything online that would give away anything about the game. Which boils down to--you can't post anything on these boards that you are bursting at the seams to post!!!

If you can handle the secrecy and don't mind playing a (potentially) buggy version, then go for it!

TRI chose people from my Nocturne forums to beta test the PC release of BloodRayne. So it does happen.
