Im guessing the difference is in the community. Remember the majority of this community are 13 year old DBZ fanboys ^^; Who mostly know jack **** about game development and modding.Well in my opinion beta releases should be banned from discussion in forum and it shouldnt be visible in the main page to download.. they should be in download section with a huge red warning that says download this only for beta testing and we wont support any discussions about this in forum if you dont like just download the stable one... well i guess you get what i mean
I know a site that does beta releases every month and they have like 10 times bigger forum and no one even mentions beta releases there
But to be fair. Each and every release we stated big and red that its a buggy beta testing version that is practically a copy of the inteam version about 3 times and on all downloads. Didnt help.
So we said "Fine. The most helpful people though the open beta releases get to be testers and we release one last open beta before stopping", so we did XD
Then again if we released an open beta with the current inteam it would probably be quite a negative effect. There is lots of optimization needed so people would be getting ****ty FPS with lots of crashes.
