never been a bete tester so am i correct on this, u test for lag(slowdown another word for it) and look at gameplay like finding hiding places for spies that is well done or fun for mercs to play?

owait only 1 tester...thought this was a multi test prev. i already sent the email too...wat now?

well i just tested 1v1 , and theres a few probs but nothin major , and the more ppl show up the better the test is .
yeah youre right to find problems like lag , bsp holes , things that wont work properly , ie. like my scamera actors wont set off an alarm , and and alarm that wont lock a door .
and its to see if the objectives are difficult enough to have a good game on , yet easy enough so you dont lose 25 times in a row .
[EDIT] ok most problems ( all that ive found) are fixed , so testing will continue depending on testers .

pffft i just tried to test yours. aside from that most of us have played your map and tested it and told you our oppinions but you just keep going and going and going with all of your 1337 special effects. just finish up the map and stop trying to be so flashy. there is a point of overdoing it.

Element, what do you call me doing? I am finishing the map. When was the alst time I did some cool flashy effect? I am just doign what needs to be done. I am addning collision to things, and make ing things that look liek **** look better.
And when my map does come out, it will be the best lookn map ever ( I hope) becuase that was my goal. yay!

well i am on xfire all day everyday so when you are ready send me the next build so we can start testing it out for balance and errors not just showing off a new effect.

I just played through the beta with element. And well . . . I would be happy to give you my opinions. But knowing our history, I'm sure you will ignore everything I say and just insulte me with immature rantings. So i'll be quite.
However I will say one thing. It needs a ton of work.

the custom meshes are looking pretty good. once you are ready we can give it another try to check out some more of the balance and lighting.
