Shinobi Phoenix Posted January 17, 2013 Report Share Posted January 17, 2013 It's difficult to say when it will officially be out. I still have to find a good server, then do some testing on that. Don't rush, we really shouldn't be giving up on the old version right away just to have you "rush" the Online Version... especially since you're the only one really doing any work while the rest just throw requests/complaints at you (which won't stop when this is done anyway). We all know what will happen Day One. You'll find a server to get all this on, we'll CRASH it throwing in all our old cards for making the original decks and the new cards in the first hours and complain (possibly that you its your fault). There's also the fact that much like Shriek, you'll have a lot of people killing server load on a regular basis while not paying for said server. Maybe you should look into what those Minecraft and Ragnarok online people do? I will ask Shriek what he uses again ever since he switched to his own server.

Zazubat Posted January 17, 2013 Report Share Posted January 17, 2013 Betas are always useful for these kinds of things, you can't always value that what you're doing will work the same way as it might do on other people's computers. I don't think he's rushing this, and he probably shouldn't either. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I don't think he's rushing this, and he probably shouldn't either. How exactly would he beta this? That would be like "testing" out the games on Newgrounds. Sounds more like people just wanting to get to play with it early. He can do that himself with personal friends, especially ones who will actually know how to identify and catch bugs. Us here would just get in the way and be more concerned with "getting to play it". Sort of the problem with public beta-testers. A quarter of them actually help and the rest just play, feeling "special" about themselves for getting in. Elitism would be rampant on YCM for something like that. Besides, this isn't exactly Android and we all have different versions of the same program with all different tweaks. It's essentially flash and if it doesn't work for you, it's not something he can (or should have to work to) fix. Since it's on Silverlight, he'll just have to test it on Firefox, IE and Chrome anyway on his own; that's not something we have to bother him with that he couldn't with his friends. Again, I don't see why we need to get in the way. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I also forgot that it was a web based game, silly me, though there should still be different web browers that might work different on different computers, though I'm no expert in this, so don't take my word for it.

Strider Tigerwolf Posted January 17, 2013 Report Share Posted January 17, 2013 I'm using Yugico and I think Scourging Beast is the only one I was able to successfully upload...though I'm not sure why.

Betas and testing are important... PUBLIC Betas are not. Public betas are about free marketing of a product and never have been about anything more than that. Again, he can get people to help him in private that he trust a hell of a lot more than people here. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

seattleite Posted January 24, 2013 Author Report Share Posted January 24, 2013 Thanks guys :) I had another project which took over priority for a while, but now I'll get back on Duel Portal. I've found a server, it's just a matter of getting everything configured and working. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

How much a month if you are paying for it? It's a cheap one, a little over $1 a month. Are you going to help him, I will when I turn 18 I will full support this money and all. Just two more years.

Shinobi Phoenix Posted January 26, 2013 Report Share Posted January 26, 2013 Are you going to help him, I will when I turn 18 I will full support this money and all. Just two more years. I've certainly donated to things I support if they do good works on a regular basis. I regularly donate to TV-Nihon. It just depends on the "product" or "service" being given. Some people watch Crunchyroll for free, others support the business by paying for a subscription, this would be no different depending on how well it works and how often a person uses it without issue. Still, he did say it was only a buck a month, but I suppose there could be something down the line to help other problems. Also, I don't think we will be on the same version of this program in two years... let alone the same servers. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

TRUE RULER^(Imper.Di ) Posted January 31, 2013 Report Share Posted January 31, 2013 Yes! I can't wait for the online version! I've been uploading like Crazy(technically for no reason). I've wanted to play for sooo long. Keep at it Seattle! And thank you again for this lovely program(it's practically the reason a lot of us made cards in the first place) Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Not-so-Radiant Arin Posted February 2, 2013 Report Share Posted February 2, 2013 You could just wait for the online version.We don't have a scheduled release date for the online version, so until that happens, he's allowed to use the downloadable one as much as he wants. There is no reason to advocate using one version over the other at the moment. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Shinobi Phoenix Posted February 3, 2013 Report Share Posted February 3, 2013 Explain the bold, i don't know what you mean. He's asking when the Online Version will be done (which he shouldn't because it's been answered on the previous page). ETA = Estimated Time of Arrival. Answer of course is unknown, possibly two months give or take how much testing is needed and server stress testing and browser compatiblity (though, it's on Silverlight, so IE7 is a given but most of us are on Firefox or Chrome).
