Wootz -> AQ3D, Alpha testing and EpicDuel (1/25/2012 4:07:11)

Dearest EpicDuelists,

If you read whats on AQ3D's site, you know that the Alpha testing of that game will only belong to AQWorlds' supporters.

However, I am suprised how EpicDuel supporters aren't involved into testing although EpicDuel is the second most popular Artix Entertainment game, and probably would be more popular if it has came out the same time as AQWorlds and was advertised the same at other sites.

What do you think? Do you think that we, the Varium buyers should be able to Alpha test AQ3D?



Jekyll -> RE: AQ3D, Alpha testing and EpicDuel (1/25/2012 4:42:28)

I would love to. I think AE should treat all of its paying customers equally. Right now its as if they are looking down on us.



Wootz -> RE: AQ3D, Alpha testing and EpicDuel (1/25/2012 4:48:00)

I like that you agree with me. :)
Seems like the only supporters that get benefits for other games are from AQWorlds, they look down at all games except it. xS



Xxbbooxx -> RE: AQ3D, Alpha testing and EpicDuel (1/25/2012 4:57:15)

I think we should be treated as equally as AQW, as I personally, have spent over 40k battleon on Varium, which is worth 4 years of AQW Membership, so i do find it strange that I am not allowed to partake, especially since EpicDuel holds most of AE's older player base, I thought they would be looking for more mature and responsible people to help find bugs and glitches, and also to suggest new content, as older player generally suggest more detailed content, but that is easier to make.

For example, some 8 year old could say... I want a fire breathing dragon to follow me around and help me in fighting and stuff. Whereas an EpicDuel player might say something more along the lines of... It would be cool if we could have fully color customizable dragon that looks like the ancient Chinese dragons follow us around as pets or familiars, perhaps we could summon them through a ritual using our magic skill, and the more you increase your magic level and use relevant perks in that skill, the stronger it gets.

Yes, it is a weak example, but my point is that us EpicDuel players suggest content in more detail, but can more appropriately offer ways these could be introduced into the game, and possible things than could unlock and improve them, making for a longer, bigger, better game, with more variation in it, which will in turn be more popular, and eventually lead to higher profits for the company.

edit: swapped brought 40k varium, to spent 40k battleon points on varium.



DANG3R0US M1ND -> RE: AQ3D, Alpha testing and EpicDuel (1/25/2012 5:04:18)

Glad i have aqw membership :D

But i do agree that epicduel players should be given the chance to participate because as Wootz said:

quote:

EpicDuel is the second most popular Artix Entertainment game


So basically epicduel is more popular than herosmash yet they get to participate in the alpha testing.

Also most players on epicduel forums have really good ideas and i feel they could contribute ideas on how to make AQ3D better.



Wootz -> RE: AQ3D, Alpha testing and EpicDuel (1/25/2012 5:05:42)

HeroSmash isn't participating.



DANG3R0US M1ND -> RE: AQ3D, Alpha testing and EpicDuel (1/25/2012 5:12:19)

My mistake it said for the beta.

quote:

Secret: ...you probably already guessed this, but your AQWorlds/HeroSmash membership will allow you participate in the beta of this new game. We expect the Beta to begin in the summer!



Wootz -> RE: AQ3D, Alpha testing and EpicDuel (1/25/2012 5:30:57)

Thats because if you get Membership in AQWorlds, you have it in HeroSmash then, but not vice versa.



DANG3R0US M1ND -> RE: AQ3D, Alpha testing and EpicDuel (1/25/2012 5:37:46)

Oh really?
I didnt know that, never played herosmash before..
So thats 2 memberships for the price of one :o



TurkishIncubus -> RE: AQ3D, Alpha testing and EpicDuel (1/25/2012 7:45:45)

Idk why they keep showing AQW>ED. In every single thing. Well probably i spent more money on AE than some AQW players. I spent like +1000$ and they dont allow me to join alpha :S



SouL Prisoner -> RE: AQ3D, Alpha testing and EpicDuel (1/25/2012 8:36:35)

so , is the testing happining in new website or same (aq.com) , ani1 noes the web address ?



Silver Sky Magician -> RE: AQ3D, Alpha testing and EpicDuel (1/25/2012 8:43:29)

They probably don't have a system in place to determine who are premium ED players and who are not; if you play the other AE games, varium is much more like Z-tokens, Dragon Coins, Nova Gems and Adventure Coins than Guardianship, Dragonlord(ship?), Star Captainship and Membership. I'm pretty sure there isn't a system in place to determine who has premium items bought with the premium currency and who does not for the other games as well. I mean, one can manually check character pages to see if a character is a varium user, but one cannot do a sweeping search for 'varium user' and have a list of character names appear. That's my theory.

Furthermore, AQ3D is probably going to be much more like AQW than any of the other AE games; hence AQW members were chosen to test the game.

Huge problem indeed but then thats marketing as well because they expect the big spenders to get the membership even if they don't play the game.

Your master account levels with purchases throughout all AE games.



TurkishIncubus -> RE: AQ3D, Alpha testing and EpicDuel (1/25/2012 9:56:49)

@Silver Sky Magician

No they can determine. ED&AQW premium users participated in HS alpha, so they can determine :)



Cinderella -> RE: AQ3D, Alpha testing and EpicDuel (1/25/2012 11:27:38)

We'll be talking to Artix about letting upgraded ED players play in the AQ3D test phases. The beta won't be for a while though.



Calogero -> RE: AQ3D, Alpha testing and EpicDuel (1/25/2012 11:37:48)

and What are Upgraded ED players if I may ask.

Is paying the lowest Varium pack + weapons considered an Upgrade or will it require 10 k Varium.



Stabilis -> RE: AQ3D, Alpha testing and EpicDuel (1/25/2012 11:48:32)

^ It could mean anyone who has purchased a phase promotional like Beta gear, or yes it could mean 10k or the next one down.



Wraith -> RE: AQ3D, Alpha testing and EpicDuel (1/25/2012 12:19:12)

Anyone with Gamma Bot & Bike, Delta Weapons, or Beta Weapons. That's pretty fair.



Stabilis -> RE: AQ3D, Alpha testing and EpicDuel (1/25/2012 12:36:07)

Only certain people will be accepted, I can tell.



endtime -> RE: AQ3D, Alpha testing and EpicDuel (1/25/2012 12:59:43)

Wow: 3D, a reasonable $50 per year, so many new features I haven't tried, tens of thousands of players at all times. Maybe it's time to go back to AQW--no doubt the $50 will go much further in AQW than in ED, where $50 could maybe last you month.



Stabilis -> RE: AQ3D, Alpha testing and EpicDuel (1/25/2012 13:08:33)

^ Lasts me up to 1 week.

EDIT: Then again, it is currency, so it diminishes when you choose to do so.



endtime -> RE: AQ3D, Alpha testing and EpicDuel (1/25/2012 13:22:21)

^Sure technically it's "when you choose to do so". But you can't expect to be at your peak winning potential with outdated gear. So practically, there isn't much of a choice (unless you are using your varium on items such as houses/bikes/accessories).



Stabilis -> RE: AQ3D, Alpha testing and EpicDuel (1/25/2012 13:33:05)

^ My gear will will be outdated when they release a physical primary of equal or greater power, an energy sidearm of equal or greater power, and an energy auxiliary of equal or greater power... within 2 updates!

megakyle777 -> RE: AQ3D, Alpha testing and EpicDuel (1/25/2012 13:48:10)

No offence to you guys, but I feel that people from the older games like AQ DF and MQ have more reason to be angry since that's who it is apparently made for in the first place. But I agree that it should be for all Upgrade people.[:)]



Cinderella -> RE: AQ3D, Alpha testing and EpicDuel (1/25/2012 13:52:59)

@endtime- unless I'm using a promo in-game (for promotional reasons) I use a lot of "outdated" weaponry and other gear.

For those asking what "upgraded" would mean, that's a Corporate decision, not mine, so I don't know yet. I apologize sincerely on behalf of ArtixEntertainment for any real or perceived slight against the EpicDuel players.

Also, the game is in VERY early development stages, so much may change from now until it's ready to be released to the public.
