I thought you guys might like to know the team did a spot of weapons testing last night.

Weapons Tested:
Boltgun
Bolt Pistol
Knife
Deathspitter and Talons (combo weapon)
Lasgun (3rd person view, see below)

Here's a screenshot I grabbed :


We've got a way to go yet before it's ready to be played, but we're making progress.

Yeah, good job team Cheesy Knowing that there is already a theoretically playable version is really reassuring.

Frost what they are doing is Alpha Testing. Typically Alpha is done by the dev team. Beta testing is when it's handed out to the public/some public to test.

actually there will be a oppertunity for more alpha testers at a later date.

Evenutally we will have to stress test the game by shoving as many people as possable into a server and then frantically tryign to break it by spamming guants, PDF and the like to see just how much it can take. I belive the record set by RS1 was something like 1000 bots before the server imploded.

Also as dev team we tend to play the game as how we view it should be played, so typically we miss a few exploits here and there. An example would be of rs1 again where you could choose any class to play with. Good idea if your dev team, piss poor when every single new player wanted a dreaddy or termi.

Thus we will need new people to look at the game before it goes public to find these things and report them. So expect a call just before things go public. It will be first come first served and we wont just take anyone. Being the the IRC helps your chances.
