  • in the past weeks i didnt have much time to work on CF1.8 due to obvious reasons
    but i think i can start working on it at the end of this week again



    in the past there was always a bit chaos when it came to beta testing of new CF versions since ppl couldnt resist to bother me and started begging "can i have it... please... where can i download it...gimme gimme gimme..."


    to prevent that shit when i am busy with fixing the last bugs i decide to give away 12 beta accounts
    10 for multiplayer/openSP
    2 for singleplayer storyline


    how will it work?
    in the next weeks before i release CF1.8 i will place beta account numbers on the CF1.7 server
    those numbers can be found in different areas of the server, basically you have to scan objects to find them
    they can be in stations, planets, wrecks ... basically in every solar object on the server
    of course only one number at once is displayed on the server
    as soon somebody send me a screenshot showing that number he is qualified for CF1.8 beta testing (the beta account may be transfered to other players if really needed)
    when i get that screenshot the next account number will be placed into CF1.7


    for those which think they are clever:
    it is not possible to examine the number out of the FL code or dll files... that simply would take longer than searching for it on the server



    hmmm what else to say?
    oh yeah.... happy hunting ^^

  • i like ur idea to make it a competition to become one of the beta testers :D


    and to make it a kind of a hunt for exploring the universe is even better!

    I have a question! Is it against the rules to find a code, and then sell it to another player for credits? :D

  • Why? It's just that if I found a code, I wouldn't have any use for it, I don't want to beta test things :)

  • I don't see how...... say for example I found one, wouldn't you rather pay me 50m credits and have it? lol


    I'm not fussed either way because I'll never find it, but I'm going to try for the fun of it :))

    if this would do then OP could have simply made an auction out of it and sell the beta tester places to ppl with highest offer...


    in this case u remind me of the ppl standing in front of a sold out football arena and selling tickets for highest offer :(

    isnt the task to find these numbers on ur own the best way to prove the talent for a beta tester?
