It's so exciting to see that so many people applied. I hope you guys are proud, Erik and Elliot!

Beta invites are now in the process of being mailed out. Thank you again, the response to beta recruitment was well beyond what we expected. Apologies to those that didn't make it into the first wave, hopefully you will have a spot in future waves as testing continues.

Regards,

- Erik

I assume it's okay?

But if you haven't heard by now, it's likely you're not in the first drop.

Pretty sure applications are closed. They have such a large pool, they will not need new Beta testers for a whole while.

They must have reopened applications recently because that link didn't work the last time I attempted to use it. No harm trying, the worst they can say is no.

(To make it clear: NOT DW2 ... where this happen
in the last months, have been the games
Imperator Rome, Shadow Empire, AOW:Planetfall, Field of Glory Empires, Imperiums: Greek Wars
... could be that they already fixed that)

where the AI cheated like hell and was playing with different rules than the human player
at NORMAL SETTINGS (that is the key point, normal)

PLEASE DEAR BETA players,

check that AI behavior at normal skill level
if it has to use the same rules as the human player and don't get any buffs.

Doesn't matter , if it is stupid af
THAT COULD BE CHANGED after time and a better one could be coded in the months to come.
But not using the same rules is hardcoded and we will have to life with it forever,
at least that is how it is with all that other dozens of strategy games out there.

Please urge the devs that they deliver a proper AI opponent ...

THANK you
and have fun !
