Don't forget Shawn, we'll be getting "prizes(TM)" of some sort by being the first to achieve various things in C2Beta, like first to hit level 20, or kill ubers, etc. Those prizes will be givin to your main character (or one of your choosing or something) for your time and effort in the Beta test. :mrgreen:

Play C2Beta
Achieve things
???
Prizes!
:D



Yes, I realize this. However, I couldn't justify wasting my time on maybe winning something and testing something for free when I won't have access to any of the stuff I already do. I mean 1 month with access to all your stuff then reset everyone to 0, I would be fine with and probably test stuff at my level extensively because it would be the only way I'll get a look at C2 for probably over a year, and thus be worth it. Being a tester(a job which in real life actually pays perdy dawm well) for free for the last month and a half I have of freedom before I plunge head first into 13 weeks of hell just doesn't appetize me.

So, three things:
1. Will c2 be running on linux/mac on release/after release?

2. IF c1 will be discontinued after c2 is out, are there plans to stop supporting c1, and open-sourcing it (server hosting software, and the client+source code)? Doing so would probably gain you some deserved publicity, though, might lose you some pontential p2p-ers. Though, it probably would get more publicity than lost payers, as hosted servers would be expensive, not as much playerbase, and not c2 (which is probably yet more awesome). Maybe you could even get a gain out of it, like having the open source people fully port (so that you dont need to screw around in WINE) c2 to mac/linux, and you, in return, would release c1 as open source.

3. Any plan for any bonuses for the beta testers, aside from in-game bonuses, like a discount for the first 300(beta-testers), or something?


Thank you!

oh, btw, though my profile shows me as a lvl 1/0, i actually was a f2p player for a good while (back in the swarm-slave days), then i went p2p, i was p2p, for like a year(could be more, could be less, i dont remember) i was about level 150-180, then my parents switched to mac computers(*gasp!*), my little windows computer crashed, a few years passed, my parents bought me a mac, instead of the windows computer i was saving up for, the windows disk we had corrupted, and, since i am only 13, i cant raise 500+ for a computer JUST to play SS. So, I couldn't access my account for a long time, my account got deleted due to inactivity, and this account was made while i was working on running in WINE(that isnt quite working yet, i DID see the post by jey, followed those instructions, but the stuff works, exept for the keys).
So, that is why it doesnt show my main's level, due to the lack of use.

Well, that turned out to be much longer than intended, just to say my credentials.

~spaceglob
P.S. other credential: SS is my FAVORITE game, EVER!

Though I don't think we'll officially support it, it will probably be possible to get C2 to run on linux, and I believe Jey has said he intends to get it working for his own use, at least.

I don't think we will open source anything, since the server for c1 and c2 is basically the same, and I don't want to give that out. There wouldn't be a point in open sourcing the client, because there wouldn't be anything to connect it to.

We could maybe give out some kind of prizes for finding bugs, although right now bugs are still easy to find.

The more bugs you find for us to fix during the beta, the longer the last C1 uni will last and the more money your colonies can make!

Well, thanks jeff, i didn't really expect you to, say, open source it, but was mainly curious as to what you thought.
Thanks for responding! (-;

I tihnk I see what Shawn's saying. Even though both C1 and C2beta will be up at the same time, he still does not want to spend time on a new character when he could tidy up his main before heading off to basic training (btw, your Eagle, Globe, and Anchor is backwards :P )

Simple solution: just enjoy C1, get things ready for your departure, spend time with friends and family (takes precidence over C2 or C1 anyways) and enjoy the last bit of time you have left before getting yelled at constantly for a few weeks. :wink:

Also, other MMOs like World of Tanks don't pay beta testers, I think your tihnking of big companies like EA or Nintendo. Also, you don't have to pay to play the beta at all, even if C1 is unsubbed. That was incentive enough right there for me. :mrgreen:
