Suggestion Re Flying Circus Beta Testers

[US103_Baer]

@Jason_Williams

I firmly believe the Dev team would be a lot better served if there are specialist Entente pilots in the beta test team.  Pilots who live and breathe aircraft like the Se5a, Spads & Nieuports. Thus I strongly suggest including into the beta team

This is not to say existing beta testers aren't good, but there is clearly a need to bring specialist BnZ/energy fighting experience to bear as well as a passion for documenting the history of the WW1 airfighting. You simply won't find anyone with a greater abundance of these traits and dedication to the genre. 

 

They are super detailed, thorough and have fearsome flying talent in most types, including Talbot in 2-seaters.

Both have served as Adjutant for the 3rd Pursuit Group and are responsible, mature guys. 

 

The FC sim and community will be the better for it.

Jason asked for FC testers in August 2019. Need Special Beta Testers for Final Push - General Discussion - IL-2 Sturmovik Forum

Did they apply back then, and have you checked that they actually want to do it? Not every one has the time or desire, no matter how good they are or how much they know.

I would think that they would have been in touch with Jason already if they were keen.

I think we need more testers focused on FC , now most testers are focused on ww2 which is understandable. I reported lots of bugs but devs resources are focused on ww2 and if those things do not make game unplayable the are left  unfortunately. I don't know for how long.

I already pre-bought FC2, just after it's announcement, i'll wait for activation on the first plane to hit the skies.

FC1 is my fav after i learned how to avoid the pilot looking through the mailbox vieuw. Bats fly better than Birds, FC1 already proved that.

BTW i like that Roland and the Muromets in RoF, hope they will appear ... as with the RoF waterplanes.

...and your point is?

As for 'testing' i reported some mostly map issues LoL

I think the OP may have a misunderstanding of what beta testers do. They help find bugs. They don't make decisions regarding how a flight model should perform.

1. Pretty fine line between a bug and broken fm/dm

 

2. Do beta testers not have access to a beta feedback forum? That was my understanding.
