Suggestion to add PTR Server for Prepatch Testing

Tue Oct 11, 2016 11:41 am

Greetings Valiants & Dev, I would like to suggest having a PTR Server for selected players to test the mechanics for the game before patches.
So players can give feedback on bugs and glitches before patches starts rolling into official game.

However i do believe there will be players abusing such benefit for personal gain,
therefore i have afew suggestion -

Arena - Remove all skill
- so players can't abuse PTR arena to test their ideal formation
- Player can give feedback on OP (Over Powered) or UP (Under Powered) stats attribute

New Content (Advanture quest, Events, Guild)
- so players can give feedback on the difficulties, bugs and glitches
- however to not spoil the game i would suggest bosses will be replaced with other monster with similar stats
so tester will only get to test the difficulty of the map without knowing the exact content (boss skin, skills and exact stats)

PTR server will be separate from main server and data will be wipe to prevent players from taking the server as a main playable server

Currently this is what i have thought of at the moment, thanks for reviewing feel free to comment and give some feedback.

Only competitive games (e-games) allow this kind of feature for a matter of balance patch on.
I think is a terrible idea, it would spoil all the events to the community, taking away the surprise.

They just should have a test team, only it.
