Beta-Tester / Malfador e-mail

Having sent two bug reports in to MM this week, I guess I am one of the ones overloading their system. I looked through the forum topics that might be related to the bugs, but did not find any mention of them, so I sent them in. If there was one central place/forum/database/web page that listed all the current bug reports, we could all check there before we send anything in. Is there a place I should be looking for this?

No, there is no central place other than on this board. We tried to create message specific threads a couple of times, but they get overwhelming. Plus, duplicate suggestions are how MM determines whether not a lot of people of concerned about a particular issue or want to see a specific feature added.

FYI,

We beta-testers read this board quite frequently.

Indeed - often referencing the Posts that are good ideas and are able to be put into the game. Changes that dont force a rewrite of the code and completely changing the nature of the game.

Have any of the beta testers suggested to Aaron that he make ALL of his lists in the game remember the Last place you clicked?

For example, at the start of the game when I'm adding empires manually and going through them marking them for AI control. It would be a *huge* improvement to this screen if it would remember the race you clicked on when you press 'Edit Empire' so that when you come back, you can just click the next one. Instead, I typically go through the list from the top and then from the bottom to make sure I didn't miss anyone. In my Last game, I still missed one! I was actually hating Aaron about that time.

I know that, but we still ignore if you read a specific suggestion and what you think of it. But now I am aware that you are a Beta-Tester and that's already a help. Was I right, that you have a more direct access to MM? And would you take the time to collect and forward suggestions to MM?

*bump*

Many open questions in this thread that I'm also interested in. I wonder how to get MM's attention to report confirmed bugs or urgent questions/issues for beta-testers.

I dream of a bug/question forum just for savegames with the same stern discipline as the mod forum...(just kidding) or at least : reading rights to the beta-test forum... *sigh*
