NOG 24: DWP ver. 0.54

You may not know this, but the Dead Workers Party is totally still in beta.

That's the reason why we frequently crash, and we occasionally act up. Let's face it; we're certainly not feature complete.

Eric's memory utilization is awful. Wes has some wicked terrible logic loops. Spencer makes this really weird screeching sound output that we can't figure out how to fix, even though he insists that's the normal sound he makes while talking. And Brent... well, Brent killed seven people last week. That certainly wasn't in the design docs.

To show our appreciation for sticking with us through these troubled times, we're pleased to announce that all beta testers will receive 10% off when they purchase the release version. Unless of course the beta version of Brent kills all of them. We're not liable for that, by the way. READ THE EULA, PEOPLE!

This week we talked about beta testing. Oh, and did you hear what happened at GOG? What a bunch of crap! Oh yeah, and we talked about Minecraft in the first of what promises to be THOUSANDS of hours of talking about Minecraft.

  1. Stop having your weeks last half the show. If you're going to go in depth talking about a game, save it for the next segment. Just quickly gloss over the games you're playing, if you're enjoying it or not, and move on. I'm not here to listen about your personal lives, that's why I follow you on Twitter. This show was supposed to be about game discussion in general, no specific games and I'm starting to think I should skip half the show to get to the better stuff. It sounds sloppy in its current form, because half way though the podcast I realized you're still on the first segment. That's 40-some minutes in this case.

    Continuing the beta theme on here, the navigation on a plugin on deadworkers.com/network is broken. I'm using Safari 5.0.2 on my Mac. I realize you probably have nothing to do with the plugin, but maybe you'd let the developer know. http://grab.by/6xsi

    Good day sirs.

  3. Re. your comments on Warhammer Online: seeing as you spent such a long time playing and pod-casting this game, why not check it out again and do a piece of informed MMO journalism about its recent development? I listened to WARP after it had finished and found it very interesting but not actually very relevant to my experience of the game (post second half of 2009). Cheers for the shows!

  4. That's a good idea Mike. I'd love to do that. And Metal Link -- We do go on sometimes about our weeks, and I'm actually with you. I think it's the worst part of the show. Some folks do like it though. I'll be sure to bring up both ideas to the other guys in case they haven't read this.

    Thanks!
    Brent
