"Beta" testers needed for RPG
« on: April 19, 2005, 08:27:01 AM »

Yeah, it's an ad.  So sue me.

In all seriousness, I'm lead beta/playtester for a forthcoming RPG from Shrapnel Games, and they're in need of experienced roleplayers to stress-test the system and make sure everything works.

If you're interested, please PM me or  email me at reimero (at) omgjonx dot com.  It involves registering as a Shrapnel beta tester and providing feedback.  On the other hand, it's a chance to comment on a game before it gets released.

Indeed, but TheJudge's wife won't.

Reim, can you provide more info? Describe the game. How much time would one have to put in typically and in what form does your company expect feedback? Do they expect a 10 page report or just an e-mail that sais J00r G4M3Z IS TEH SUXX0RZ CUZ TEH GR4FIX R TEH L4M3!!111

I have no experience beta testing a game but I do have experience in beta testing applications.

Basically, it means reading the manual and, if possible, running a table or IRC game.  Then you simply post on a message board with what works, what doesn't and what could be better put elsewhere.

You'll need to email mindi (at) shrapnelgames (dot) com and let her know you're interested in the Foresight beta test.  Also let her know I referred you (she knows me as reimero)
