Star Citizen Public Test Universe for All Backers [Jan 21, 2015, 10:16 am ET] – Share – Viewing Comments
The
Roberts Space Industries website announces the Public Test Universe is now
available to all backers of Star Citizen, Cloud Imperium's space combat
game. Here's word:
Get ready to join the Public Test Universe (PTU.) During the lead up to Arena Commander 1.0, we gave a limited number of backers access to what we call the PTU, a version of the game that offers experimental versions of upcoming patches. Starting today, all Star Citizen backers have access to the PTU and with it access to test a build of Arena Commander 1.0.1.
Please note that the PTU is not for the faint of heart: unlike standard Arena Commander, you’re one of the first people testing a new build which can often be unstable or otherwise non-functional. If you’re serious about helping us test Star Citizen, accessing the PTU and reporting bugs on the forums is one of the biggest services you can provide… but if you’re looking for a clean dogfight, you may want to stick to the standard build. You can report bugs discovered in the PTU here, or provide feedback on the PTU itself here.

It's new build and it need to to be mass tested. What's so hard to understand?
Got it.
Are you suggesting they should release new build without testing it first?
Well since the Arena Commander is hardly a complete game and is updated on a regular basis and is actually an Alpha itself then...yes. There is no point to this other than as pure marketing BS. They appear to be giving 'something' new to the community while in fact they are giving them just another newer build of the Arena Commander.
Or this build could be to unstable, and rather than deal will 700.000 angry nerds on forums, they allow everyone to opt-in.
If it's bad - sorry, play on older version you already have installed in diffrent category, if it's good, everyony will download it next time.
Why do you guys have so much problem with that?
