| S.T.A.G.E. said: Personally, its becoming increasingly obvious after Assassin's Creed Unity that AAA multiplayer games need to have beta's. I agree with BrokenGamezHD about this. In fact it we should have demos of the closest product we can get to the finished one for single player as well. As he said, its free work and future consumers could feel like they are apart of the development process and it doesnt come at a hiring cost for companies. This would to lead to a much better relationship between consumers and developers. https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=DSVovQgE-fs&list=UUvHtEkC1NPbdC7c1eCupsnQ |
Or people could just wait to buy their games till they hear about it. If that happens on 2 big games it will change the industry. It will put the power back into the consumers hands and if those games are bug riddled and unfinished they won't be purchased. These companies spend too much money to have to totally fail like they would. It would encourage them to make a proper quality product again with proper product testing.
I don't think beta's will help at all. They haven't for many games and many just use them to play a game for free without giving proper feedback. Demo's are different from beta's but they can be coded to be completely bug free while the game could be riddled with bugs.
Gotta figure out how to set these up lol.
