---No-Mercy--- Posted July 27, 2014 Share Posted July 27, 2014 Hey All, This has probably been asked before but im curious, Is there any plans to take this game out of beta and give this game a chance to become a fully fledged game with the rest of big boys of the MMO World? I only ask because I have never known a game to stay in BETA for this long? I wondered if there was a reason for it? Does anyone know? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Pansoy Posted July 27, 2014 Share Posted July 27, 2014 Damn...I'm trying to think of this one game that was in beta for at least 5 years. Maybe not 5 years, but I know it was longer than 3 years. Please help, if anyone knows the name. >_< Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
killerviel Posted July 27, 2014 Share Posted July 27, 2014 (edited) Could actually be the big announcement at Gamescon.

Hatr Posted July 27, 2014 Share Posted July 27, 2014 "beta" is an excuse for the many issues warframe has, beta won't end anytime soon since devs are as always, more focused on content than on polishing because that's what people want, players can overcome unpolished content but they cannot overcome the lack of it Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

DeccanTraps Posted July 27, 2014 Share Posted July 27, 2014 Why would it ever end? They get paid in cachey money same as a final release version would and if any one has a problem with any features they just point at the greek letter shaped fig leaf.

Please help, if anyone knows the name. >_< I know of Parabellum's beta, which lasted for almost, or even over, two years, then it was shutdown because the developers started working on another project. Said project was named Bullet Run, and had a different previous name, which was released as a beta after a few years, which also shutdown in about a year or so.

HitPointPredator Posted July 27, 2014 Share Posted July 27, 2014 The term "beta" is basically an excuse DE is using for the game's condition. People on the forum who defend Warframe, no matter how bad it is, often use "Its Beta" as defense before running away or something. Its not a valid excuse anymore.

rangeless Posted July 27, 2014 Share Posted July 27, 2014 (edited) July 28, NEVER! We all know this game is only "beta" in name. =) Edited July 27, 2014 by rangeless Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

WERElektro Posted July 27, 2014 Share Posted July 27, 2014 Other question. What will change once the Beta "ends"? What changes do you expect? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
UltimateSpinDash Posted July 27, 2014 Share Posted July 27, 2014 (edited) It will end once DE doesn't need a lazy excuse for stuff like the lack of SLI support that a friend of mine is experiencing despite the fact that Warframe is advertised as supporting SLI.

Kuva_Kebab Posted July 27, 2014 Share Posted July 27, 2014 The term "beta" is basically an excuse DE is using for the game's condition. People on the forum who defend Warframe, no matter how bad it is, often use "Its Beta" as defense before running away or something. Its not a valid excuse anymore. OR, they're building funds so they can bring the game up to speed and put it where they've wanted it ever since they came up with the original concept. Also, using the term "It's beta" is a valid defense, you've seen how unstable this game is, right? Right? It just seems like people just jump to the conclusion of, "DE want an excuse for being badlol." When, they're one of the most involved game devs I've seen, especially in beta.

SmokinDevil Posted July 27, 2014 Share Posted July 27, 2014 For those saying Beta is an excuse... Release this game right now as is. This game won't score over a 4/10. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Vitras Posted July 27, 2014 Share Posted July 27, 2014 Too many games are given the title "beta" now (or "early access" in steam's case). Whether DE will make this past that stage or if it will be an excuse to hide behind, only time will tell. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Ov3rd0se Posted July 27, 2014 Share Posted July 27, 2014 When... All the major and most minor bugs are fixed End game content is put in More variety of missions are put in All aspects of game are balanced Placeholder bosses are replaced with new bosses All the bosses get reworks Mastery rank 30 is obtainable Just to name a few things are added.

People on the forum who defend Warframe, no matter how bad it is, often use "Its Beta" as defense before running away or something. Its not a valid excuse anymore. An independent , untraditional software business model that keeps updating itself with content and the term beta thats used for traditional software releases is irrelevant in this case. It's not a beta, it's a live game that keeps evolving. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
