Demigod: THANK YOU BETA TESTERS!

from JoeUser Forums

Sometime today all the beta accounts will be temporarily disabled as we move the beta version off of Impulse and replace it with the completed version of the game.

As a token of our appreciation, our intention is to come in the Monday after Easter and make the final version available to the beta group a little bit early.

Those of you who have been with us since the beginning can hopefully see just how much the game has evolved since the first beta. A great deal of the improvement to the game is due to the ideas, suggestions, and feedback from the beta group. I think we can all agree that without your input, the game would have been very different and not for the better.

On behalf of Stardock and Gas Powered Games, I’d like to thank all of you for your help.  We look forward to hanging out on the forums with you listening to your continuing ideas and suggestions to see how Demigod can continue to evolve over the months and years ahead.

Thanks again and good luck!

-Brad “Frogboy” Wardell, President & CEO of Stardock

You're welcome :)

I'd also like to say thanks to you for listening to us!  I have been in several betas where beta tester ideas / feedback goes largely unrecognized - it's good to see so much of our feedback being implemented into the game.  While I know there are still some beta testers who feel more could have been done (especially with generals), I'm pretty pleased with the overall results, personally.

P.S. Great to hear about Easter Monday - now I can take the day off of work and I don't need to make up a weird excuse. :moo:

Congratulations to Frogboy and Tyo for taking an idea, turning it into a rough initial beta, and polishing it to a gem-like sheen in time for release.

It's been fun with the beta testing. Here's to years of fun with the real thing. :D

Oh, cool, cheers Frogboy. :)

Looking forward to finally playing the singleplayer portion of the game.

Final Beta? Really?....  I still can't connect to any games. I hope the last build solves D-link specific router issues.

You're welcome. 


Thank you for being a sane game company. :D

Wow, simply further proving Stardock's greater interest in its gamers rather than its profits. Thanks for making a really fun game!

Especially not with Doctor Seki, and with it being the last day before Doctor Chou heads off to (yet another) conference!
