Anything Forums

We are looking for players who would like to help test out some of the upcoming content for a future release to AOV!

Players would help test content on TC1 and provide their feedback on the various changes:

- If anything didn't work, was hard to follow, if anything crashed etc.
- If anything seemed too difficult/easy or did not provide adequate reward
- Other suggestions, complaints or general feedback

We will be setting up TC1 to make it easy to quickly get to areas where testing and feedback is needed. Please keep in mind that developers will be testing different scenarios as well, so it's possible that the server will need to be restarted or may crash.

Testing is completely voluntary and your feedback is greatly appreciated.

You can have a look below for the testing phases. They are not yet on TC1 as we need to finalize some scripts/testing before we release them for players.

Please stay tuned to the forums for information on how to connect to TC1 and when each testing phase is ready for players.

NOTE: The list below is of pending items that have either been completed, are incomplete, are planned or have been worked on in some form. The list below does not constitute a complete list, items may be added or removed based on feedback, testing and time constraints.

Ya there is currently a crash on tc1 so we will need to have a look at the logs. I suspect it may be related to some leftover deathblades.

It may possibly be slayer related. Try using slayer weapons and attacking stuff with it on tc1 to see if you can reproduce the crash.

No, you will need to continue using 7.0.16.1 for the time being.

Just a head's up, we'll need to resolve a crash issue on TC1. We have an idea of what's causing it, just need to work and put a patch in. We'll keep you posted when this has been resolved as we don't want to move forward with champ testing until this has been fixed.

The crash issue has been resolved on tc1! There's one more issue to work out with the harrower gate then we should be able to open phase 1 up for player testing!

Phase 1 should be open up mid week around wednesday/thursday.
