Suggestion re closed beta forum

This has been suggested before but can I suggest again that this closed forum be set up with a heading for each scenario. The forum not only communicates to Kerensky it is also used by the beta testers to see how each has fared and, in my experience anyway, I may be up to scenario C and want to know how others have gone with perhaps scenario B that I just finished. Personally, I'd rather go to just the one location and look at comments on scenario B than go to dozens of players' reports to find their post on that scenario. I would think it would make compiling data on a scenario easier if it is all in one place, too.

I second this as I think it would help the betatesters and maybe even speed up the feedback process. And after the NDA is lifted and the threads are moved to the open beta forum, it would be more enjoyable to read to the for the other players as well.

Whatever works best for all betatesters and devs.

Just don't want to be misunderstood: guys can post whatever they like, I just think a central spot for each scenario would be easier to manage. If posts are made outside those, great too.

When the beta DLC42 is up , perhaps you can make a thread for every scenario. I'll put my posts there then.

I've added the sticky threads for each scenario. Guys can use or not as they please - when the DLC 42 beta gets underway.

Another reason for a centralised approach was illustrated by the number of threads about the Romanian cavalry victory condition bug in Belgrade DLC 41 in various threads. If it had been in one thread, guys might have seen the issue straight away.

Well, i get your point and you are right.
Perhaps we should notify High Command, that the troops are ready and awaiting orders

This is too organized.

I demand we go back to the old way!

Thanks Condoro, I preferred this approach as well.

@El Condoro, thank you for setting up the sticky threads for each map. I always thought that it was the best approach instead of "fishing" through numerous threads to see the comments for a particular map. Each beta tester can still start their own thread for bugs, comments, suggestions, etc. while having a centralized area for each map. This should also help reduce the reporting of redundant info like the bug you mentioned.

It's much better this way.
Thanks El Condoro.
