Changes to the Community Tester Program

Yeah, I’m sure, but there has to be a streamer NDA, or at least they have permission to use a final/special cut to do their videos.

Well, until they’ve added what they consider core content, I’ve no idea how many seasons that will take but when they do get back on track ti the 3-4 month seasons hopefully it won’t be that long. But it really does depend on how much they want to add as core & how long it takes them to make it (obviously).

I know, but you’re assuming/implying that most people do have an issue with it.

But if they’re talking about high corruption balance, why is that unreasonable? There’s reasons why I don’t get involved much in those arguments.

It also helps significantly when people have issues with their build. Or if people are bitching about normal monos being too difficult & they’re still using a low lvl weapon/gear.

Maybe they could learn to be less affected by others viewpoints? And others could learn to be less dick-ish.

For competitive stuff, I get & that feels like a valid reason.

Like, I get players not wanting to use Meta builds, because I don’t want to use meta builds… so I don’t? I pull up LastEpochTools build planner, throw something together then start playing it and tweaking as I go, leaving gear/idols off as much as possible because I play offline (so no market) and idk what will drop as I play. I’ve looked up build guides for GD and D3 (back when I played), but not LE.

This really is a “‘I hate eating chocolate!’ screams the children stuffing their face with chocolate” situation. Just stop doing the thing you hate doing instead of punishing everyone else.

I’m not solely talking about the core content planned.
I’m talking about the needed mass of content and hence complexity derived from it over time to cause this to happen.

And when it happens LE will be similar to complexity as PoE was back in 3.1, which while long ago is still substantially complex for the build aspects.

I’m implying that more people have an issue with it then the other way around, those which would have an issue with it non being available for viable reasons.

Because you can see the scaling happening at low corruption already and discern with enough mental capacity the follow-up above. It doesn’t matter if the number is 250, 600 or 2400.

Then they can can choose to open it up for visibility. That’s a opt-in thing, not a lack of option in general or even opt-out.

Same thing ‘If you bitch about this aspect nigh nobody has an issue with then provide proof so we can see why we should listen to it’.
Proper reasoning doesn’t get set away either way.

Yes, and the day after we find the solution to world-peace and put it into action right away. Just before we go ahead and solve all social problems in general the week after :rofl:

Also a valid example, yes.

Call me pessimistic but if I had ti guess content creators will have their guides up in at least 48 hours after launch. On top of it if they remove everyone who ever uploaded LE content on YT they remove a lot of skilled players from their tester pool that pull a crap ton of hours.

I would rather have the testing NDA updated to: Wait a week untill you post guides and builds for the new season.

Most people who can read and coprhend numbers, well not me for example, can make up their minds on most builds by reading the patchnotes. I can’t tell exactly why but to me this is just some kind of PR stunt or bandaid that most likely changes nothing outside of content creators updating their guides one or two times more if something turns out better then initialy intended.

I guess this changes nothing. On top of it if I had a € for all the times I heared someone claiming they were asked: “What is the new meta?” while in the CT programm… damn I don’t have to care for bills for a while… then again I don’t pay much bills.

Then you wouldn’t have any streamers doing CT if there had to be that much of a delay. One day might be reasonable but an entire week would be too long. I do wonder what the sweet spot would be though.
