Re: Halo PC Complaints. Say what you will.
Posted By: Louis Wu <halo@bungie.org>Date: 12/12/03 4:04 a.m.

In Response To: Re: Halo PC Complaints. Say what you will. (Konrad9)

: That's just the problem, most of the beta testers were (and I mean no offense
: to any beta testers) more of personal friends of Gearbox/Bungie and
: 'celeberties' of the fanbase and gaming world.

This is so wrong it isn't even funny.

The 10 people you KNOW about in the beta program fit that description.

The other thousand people don't. (I'm not exaggerating that number.)

: Pretty much all of the beta testers had access to high-end computers, with
: which they wouldn't have many problems with, at least performance wise,
: during the beta test.

This is also entirely wrong.

: Which is why I said they should have used, at least for some people, a
: lottery or application system for the beta. And I understand why Wu
: disagreed with me, but you HAVE to have people who don't know what they
: are doing during a beta, because that is what most people are.

People who don't know what they're doing are USELESS in a beta, because they have no clue how to reproduce bugs they run across, or report them properly when they DO find something.

: The people who build their own rigs and O/C are not the majority, not by a
: long shot.

Nobody said they were. You have a really skewed view of who participated in the beta.
