- Yeah. Are you ever going to take the game out of Beta?
- STOPOPOPOPOPOPOP, as soon as they take the game out of beta all the poop heads will start playing
- I was going to say exactly what WalruZ said, but he already said it!

Eh. It would do you well to read up on the topic of the history of TS and Glitch.
It's a really unique situation. Glitch was in beta before, then launched (I joined during launch), then unlaunched. That's absolutely huge in the world of software development. It takes real balls to pull a product that you've declared final, and say "We're not finished with that yet." I admire this move. It shows that TS care more about perfecting the experience for us than they do about impressing investors and the like. I can't think of any other game developer that actually puts the customer before their finances. I think the least we could do to thank them is to show a little patience as they work to make Glitch into the game it was always meant to be. - Well, are you ever going to take the game out of Beta?

What's the hurry? I joined during the first launch and stayed for mobeta (obviously). I feel that all the changes made during the new beta succeeded in taking the game to a whole new, exciting level. Glitch got better and its like an entirely new game with more things for players to do.
Stoot and the Devs, hear my cry. Don't rush it! Take your time, this game is unique and wonderful and has become such an amazing part of my life.
So, with that said, are you ever going to take the game out of beta? -
Im confused, what game?
Im only here for the food.. - Keep the impatience to launch in mind... when they do relaunch, you're gonna miss beta- it happened last launch, and it's pretty much inevitable next time. Treasure beta :)
- You know what they say: You can take the game out of beta, but you can't take the beta out of ... wait. That's not what they say. Never mind.
- I stopped playing till beta is over. It will end someday right?
-
I think it was my great, great, great, great 1/2 Uncle Vittorio (on my Mother's side) who always said:
"Si può prendere il gioco fuori di beta, ma non si può prendere la versione beta dal gioco."
Or maybe it was Aunty Hasijna who was always saying:
"Unaweza kuchukua mchezo nje ya beta, lakini huwezi kuchukua toleo beta ya mchezo."
Anyway, i wonder how they're doing.... - all the randomness makes this feel like home to me <3
- But are we ever going to take the game out of beta?
-
Beta is wonderful! Beta has the feeling of endless possibilities just around the corner. Beta is "just us" doing this thing together.
Do we have to take the game out of Beta?
:D -
♫ You beta watch out
You beta not cry
Beta not pout... ♫
Wait. Are you ever going to take the game out of Beta? - There is a problem with this Beta. Will the devs fix it?
-
Beta is so unimaginative.
This should be ... no, not gamma, thanks for playing ...
Kappa. - No, I will not take the game out of Beta. But I'm sure Tiny Speck will do it when they feel Glitch is ready :D
- You beta believe it!!
- Soon™, or, two weeks - whichever is later.
- Sirentist, I think the quote you were going for was "You can take the game out of beta, but you can't take the betta out of the bowl, because you know, it's a fish and they sort of need to stay IN the water." Right? Is that it?
-
BUT... the question remains.....
To be or not to be - Chuck Norris - Well said Justin! It will launch again when it launches and not before. In the meantime, TS is working very hard to get it nice and shiny for the relaunch and I really do appreciate all the hard work!
-
We had the Alpha phase, then Beta, then we Trial-Launched, then went back to Beta ~which really is more like a
Gamma phase... me thinks we will be getting close to the Grand ReOpening, when we reach the Omega Phase
~as in: Oh me ga-wd, we's ready for launch! ;P - You are to game the take out going of ever Beta?
-
Maybe it's a sound business model to never get out of beta. Players subcribe, buy credits. Newbies get in like it's a privilege (and it is, sort of).
Meanwhile, not knowing what the game will look like next week, each week, is a thrill... -
Before my heart was stolen away by Glitch, I used to play Kingdom of Loathing obsessively. KOL's been in beta for what, 9 years now? And they are awesome. (just not quite as awesome as Glitch ;)
Also: KOL has really great merchandise. I'm not just talking t-shirts, but stickers and plastic toys and a @%$& comic book! I think the more important question here is not about beta, but ARE YOU EVER GOING TO MAKE MERCH??? - You beta WORK! *snaps fingers*
- Gmail was in beta for five years!
- When are you going to take beta out of the game?
- When you take it out of beta, can I pay credits to go back to beta? :P
- It means it's Beta than other games, and every time you play it, it gets Beta and Beta.
-
i like beta
nuff said - This beta's been going on so long, you could call it the master beta.
- I love beta. The changes are so much fun that I look forward every day to see if anything new will happen. I'm not even sure if I'll still like it when it does launch or if beta Glitch has spoiled me for consistency.
- But are you ever going to take the game out of beta?
- Oh beta, are they ever going to take the game out of you?
- and bwahaha @ Muncey Mango, I want a badge for that.
- Its just a simple question.
-
I bet it will come out of beta someday.
I bet launching is a lot more important to Tiny Speck than it is to any of us. - This game is beta in beta than any other games that are actually done. I like beta. What's the rush?
-
Well, if you'd just answer the question.
Why don't you just answer the question?
Be honest.
No big deal.
Yeah answer it.
Answer the question, Stoot
Talk to us.
C'mon, it's easy. It's only one question.
--Me, with apologies to John Hughes - This would be a good topic for AC2K to write a song about.
- How 'bout "You Beta You Bet" to the Who tune, AC?
-
or "Take Us Out of Beta" to the tune of "Take Me Out to the Ball Game"
(unless you don't want to repeat songs :P) -
Why are people so anxious? I'm enjoying the game, beta or release.
I joined at release, the game is now in beta and better than ever. Maybe they should go back to alpha and continue to make it even better.
The only problem with this strategy is that ɑ is the first letter of the Greek alphabet so they would have to get creative for the next phase after alpha; maybe go back to the Linear B alphabet 'zo'. -
sssh.
I like beta.
close this thread! -
Can I play and do awesome things and grind spice and feed batterflies and grow purple and get wasted on no-no and nibble meat off of pigs and sing to my butterflies and jump, jump, jump the day away?
Yes?
Then I don't care if it's in beta or not. ;) - +100K Crashtestpilot
