gameplay testers?

[varo]

serious question, not sure if anyone can answer for 100% certainty but, i was curious if tiburon had gameplay testers, sort of like the qa testers they have to work out all the games bugs.

That would cost too much money.

They'd rather spend it on false advertising.

That's what patches are for, didn't you know that? Why finish making/polishing a game when you don't need to?

unfortunatley we pay EA to be their tester's it's pretty pathetic really i used to defend them but i'm now seeing just how lazy they are and do not care about us as customer's at all just our hard earned money

Just close your eyes and pretend that we are in beta testing right now and that the actual release of the game is when the patch comes out.

hate to say it but you're right, EA's Need For Speed is the crappiest racer around but you can guarantee they will have the sweetest looking videos. This seems to be all thruout EA.

Ok. Aside from the snide remarks.

Yes they do have QA testers/ Gameplay testers.

About 40 odd people are creditted in the Madden 10 credits for QA.

Those people should be commended. They all also do the quality testing for the automotive industry. You may have seen a few of them in crash test videos. Great group of guys.
