Come time for Open Beta, and Nexon followed through in giving closed beta testers the Trailblazer medal and 20 special tokens if they were in the top fifty reporters. I was in the top fifty after reporting only six bugs. You mean everyone else below me only reported far less, or, even worse, none at all? It took me all of two hours of play to find these bugs too.
Let's face facts. People don't want Tespia to actually fix bugs (which is the point of Tespia anyway), they want to play some new content. People do not actively look for bugs in the game, and that defeats the whole point of beta testing. I think Nexon should learn this and not open Tespia, as it will be used and abused.
(Remember in Tespia when people summoned Jr. Balrogs into Henesys, the ONLY level-up map in the game? Talk about hilariously rude - who can beta test in an environment like that?)
Oh the sad, sad truth.
Though you wonder if Nexon will actually uphold a closed off Tespia server sometimes. I do agree with the "No Bang" to content. But it would drastically help bug fixes if the Tespia server is done right.
What I think they should do is have Closed Tespia. Have a small amount of people that actually did bug report in Tespia 1 - 3 back then, and have them heavily moderated or something to where they will report bugs. I remember quite a few of us actual Tespians who did their job, and did report bugs, and enjoyed doing it.
