As Ive beta tested quitea few P2p and F2p MMOs and reported my fair share of bugs I thought id share tips that ive gained from Devs feedback and other players,
*Firstly, to fix a bug it needs to be identified, thats where we come in as beta testers, we locate the bugs, report them, and hopefully they get fixed.
But, to fully identify the bug information is needed from us as testers. Thats the key point, information, as much as possible to accurately identify and/or recreate the situation that the bug came to attention.
*Just saying "I was fighting and it bugged" doesnt really help, saying where you were fighting, what you were fighting and any other notes that can help to recreate it. Also, many bugs are caused by conflicts with your system and the client, so with certain glitches/bugs. It helps by posting your specifications so, as stated, it can be more accurately recreated and thus identified.
Key*points to note when reporting bugs, location, actions, in some cases equipment and situation you were in when the bug appeared eg crafting, fighting.
*Hope this posts help you when reporting bugs.
See you in game.
