    Early PTS for "Survival" DLC

    Hey Ubi and Massive,

    Since the PTS was a successfull project to help you guys fix the game, why not release the PTS version for the upcoming DLC "Survival"? We really don't want to have another DLC with a lot of issues and bugs. Many of us here are willing to help you preparing this content as we want to make it sure that it is playable and almost bug free. And as we already experience from the last PTS, it took a whole month of testing and debugging from you guys and that is we need to avoid.

    If you have already plans for this DLC, we hopefully can hear you this coming SoTG.

    Bow.

    see i dont think its wise to release dlc on pts, their were many reasons why PTS was set up, and with all dramatic changes within 1.4, the PTS was needed .. For new content i dont see any reason why it would be needed,

    theirs a difference in massively changing the games core mechanics etc to releasing new content, Which now the core gameplay has been relaid, building up shouldnt be a problem.

    Well you got a point. But hopefully we can test it right before the releasing. Remember, a lot of issues was found during the release of UG and we dont want to go back and fort again on weekly updates and fixes. Bug fixing should be done once and not just fixing some usual issues and just leaving he "Under investigation" ones. I'm just saying.

    There is Massive statement at least last SotG that they will use PTS in future for new patches and even DLCs like Survival. So be sure that you get info when Massive will be close to open it.

    I agree. Having Survival in the PTS would be a bad idea, in my opinion. It will basically ruin the surprise element...

    We definitely do want to use it for future Updates given how great it went.
