    Wow, this panel is 80% so negative about people in QA -- one guy in particular... "I appreciate someone who knows not to talk to me and waste my time", it's not always obvious and this is just a rude attitude to have, kindness costs nothing

    That’s because they work in companies that have trash QA culture. They basically hire third party testers that are there to play and report everything they see without actually being placed inside the development process, so they receive like 1000 reports, which most are ignored because of priority, and they get upset when irrelevant bugs from production’s opinion are posed as a bigger problem then they imagine it to be. It’s sad to see.

    Yep :/ they really focus on QA being these angry people that want to break and “hate” the game - when they should be saying , that QA are helping them by discovering issues that THEY created and had not realised. Like the person who caught the account switching - surely they should be thanking them that they caught it early rather than hating them?

    theres a quality assurance for video games??? Well it really doesn't appear to be doing its job because lately all the so called AAA games are getting released in unfinished status or never bother to ever fix the game problems such as halo wars 2 when you order large numbers of melee units mixed with ranged to attack a building, instead of doing that the melee units start running in circles every single time. But because the game doesnt earn enough money the devs at 343 industries never tries to fix it despite the fact they are aware of the problem. What we need for video games is a law that criminalizes the release of buggy games, if they get caught doing that, have their whole dev team including the guy that gave the go ahead to put the game on the market all arrested, put in jail and not allowed to leave jail until all the bugs are gone. And thats all unpaid work because its punishment: - They tried to make more money after being lazy at work and failing to remove all bugs. Naturally the punishment should be the opposite: Make them work more at the cost of makinh less money so that next time when they think of allowing bugs to remain not fixed, they will remember the bad prison memory and then on second though, ill finish my work. - We have the same laws on food product:. Imagine a retailler that just bought a large amount of perishable goods for cheap. He knows thats about 30% of the goods that are rotten and needs to be removed for QUALITY ASSURANCE but then he gets lazy and removes only the worst and leaves in what looked fine but didnt bother looking at the whole thing. On the surface it. It looked fine but the insides is rotten, you know this but you leave it because you want to make more money. Then someone buys the very thing, finds how its rotten insides goes to the press about it and you are forced to shutdown your entire store forever. - The sad truth is that when a video game maker does that exact same thing he gets way with it even after everyone including the media have every evidence to prove its bad and after you admit the bugs are there you still dont get punished and you keep on doing it again and again. Its trully unfair, why am i getting punished and forced to close my whole retailling company for selling a few rotten goods when you are selling rotten games left and right without ever getting punished???? - Thats my question to you, waiting on your answer.
