Should Be beta

[XtrmeJ]

This thread is based on assumption only. There is no material so to speak to back it up. Try to play it before ya even hint to put it back in the beta phase.

I hear that there are some people who are bad mouthing AH2 in the hopes that other people will feel the same way and somehow "force" HTC to turn AH1 back on so they can play until their new computer for AH2 is ready.

Ugraded CPU, mobo, ram, vid card in anticipation of AHII.

Played AHII, hated it, deleted account.  dunno about "some" people, but I'm not one of them.

Anyone who has worked in IT delivering software to users who number in their thousands will understand that no amount of beta testing meets the acid test - which is when the thing goes LIVE. Sure, there might be hiccups to begin with, people will have to change settings etc. When the dust settles, we can expect 2.01 within about a month, maybe sooner.

Relax, guys. Be patient.

And HTC.

It almost sounds as if you think you're typing to rational adults.  If you do, you're mistaken.

Well I hope I am doing the right thing spending 700 dolars for 1 game( my mom thinks i am crazy ) so it better be worth it, Or hitech needs to let me play for free.

Tell your mom that she isn't alone in that assessment.

True, but maybe your mom does?  If not, then don't worry about it.  Part of posting here is getting cracked on.  You should know this by now.

When AH came out it was no way near perfect. I remember problems with it. A lot of people who just started play AH never experinced the bugs it had. I mean how long would you expect it to be in beta? AH was really behind in the current time it was a time for a change. AH2 has come a long way, its playable. Most of the bugs now dosen't effect game play. And thats why it isn't a beta no more. Also the wait was killing everyone.

Take your pick of either, or if you're feeling saucy, pick both!

Well, one could argue that purchasing a new computer would allow a person to increase their awareness of the the rest of the world, utilise the machine to improve scholastically and interact with others from different cultures through the internet.....

Or you could say "I wanna fly cartoon airplanes and pretend I'm a fighter pilot!!!!"

Attempt both of these arguments with the parent in question and let us know which bears fruit.

roflmao!!  Good one!

   AH2 i hear has so many errors why can't it still be in the Beta phase???

This strikes me as a poorly disquised attempt to get HT to reverse the decision to kill AH for AH2 so you can still play. Sorry to burst your lil bubble and this is something you need to learn: in the real world companys and technologies dont grind to a halt to "wait" on a few. It just doesn't happen. So go mow some lawns or whatever, get yourself a puter and join us. If you need help we are here.
Just dont attempt to stand in the way of progress...you'll get runover!

Maybe one way to figure out when the beta is ready could be to compare how many people are playing in free open beta of AH2 and how many are still at AH1 arena.

The few times I logged on to either of these during past week, there were always more players in AH1..... I really wonder why?

I dont know really, but would it not be a better moment for a switch when there are more players in AH2 than in AH1?

... just wondering...
