Train Sim World 2 - Roadmap Update 25/01/2022

You're presuming it's a man...

Personally I don't see why everyone needs to come on stream and face the public. What benefit would it have bar allowing people to have some person to vent their spleen at (and then troll them)?

 

The person or persons who do make those decisions is/are Matt's boss(es).....

 

To me there is very little between he too. Both QA and Beta teams are there to find bugs no?

 

Didn't Sam say the person at the top was a bloke? Was his name Paul or something? Can't remember.

 

Not the same sorts of "bugs." QA is looking for game-crashers and game-breakers. Beta looks for missing scenery and badly-placed stop markers.

 

Paul Jackson is the CEO of Dovetail.

 

Former CEO, now chairman. Current CEO is Jon Rissik.

I was going by my own limited experience. We didn't have a QA team at all only a beta team that looked for everything. It was for a mod that was very popular at the time, the forum had over 10,000 members, good laugh.

 

CEO schedules releases???

 

No, they are there to find very different things (especially from what Matt and Sam said recently)
QA seems to be more indepth engineering and code bugs whereas beta testers are "play testers"

Otherwise yes, they both find bugs

 

Not necessarily. If they have a "release team" and those people are responsible for the release of all of DTG's catalogue of games and updates then it would be less "Matt's boss" and more a partner team to TSW who have a specific remit within the operations of DTG with neither taking precedence over the operations of the other.

Okay. Of course Adam must negotiate a way to release the preservation updates. Now it looks like they are ready. Waiting for Microsoft and Sony to do the final testing.
