White Star Enforcer

Or, like in Information Technology, lots and lots of dumb users make many good test cases by random luck and their intrinsic abilities to f**k up computers merely by staring at them.

Kinda the same thing.

Exactly! Random people have the advantage of doing just purely random things as well. Who would have thought that switching from your pistol to your rocket launcher while double tapping jump and firing at the boss would cause the game to lock up and delete your hard drive because of some odd overlap of code?
 
For the record...

AoL list, with varients is still very limited, as almost all the variations on those ships are very close to the same in function. There are lots of other ships that come close to the same functions that have been left off for no good reason.

Why not allow a milani? I'd say it's a fair bit more iconic than the bimith, a ship rarely seen in these parts. Lakara... why no lakara?

Just saying it's not about just the variety, its about not being able to take something because someone said it doesn't come with that list, not because it shouldn't come with that list. A bit like a restaurant that has corn, beans and peas as side dishes... but no substitutions allowed... so you can't have steak with corn... it only comes with the peas sir. Makes you question the staff, the owners and the service ethic... and move on.

Today, I decided to swap out three White Stars, and 2 Dag'Kars, for four White Stars and one Dag'Kar. Making the change locked up my system, and my hard drive was wiped when I tried to reboot. I hope these bugs don't make it off the test server, or I'll cancel my subscription to ACTA on patch day!

Tounge in cheek in reference to my statement. If you've done Beta testing on any PC game or program, you'll get these *really* odd combinations of actions that a user will do that will crash the game or program.

The application carries over to ACtA in the regards that the smaller the play test base, the more likely that something could be overlooked because of their experiance or biased, while a less experainced player might notice.

You haven't joined the ACTA MMO yet? You're missing out.

Yes, I'm kidding. =)
