I'm a web developer and I'm definitely interested. Who wouldn't be?

And okay... I'll be the one to say it. It would be much easier to have an opt out list, or no list at all.

And the thread is over.

There are a lot of inactive people on the forum.  It is self-contradictory to ask them to opt out.

Are people just interested in getting their hands on the product before it's actually released, or are people interested in giving FunSockets proper feedback and help them make sure their product is as good as they want it?

I have some, but quite limited, experience in beta testing (never tested any digital beta product), but my experience tells me that a lot of the people who tests are generally more interested in trying the product out than actually contributing to making it better. And then there's the limited amount of people who want to shape the product into something they want instead of what the target audience wants. In this case I think most of the people here really want an isotropic 2, while Rio Grande and FunSockets probably wants it to be more casual. And if most of the beta testers are from here, I guess you see what your feedback will lead to. That being said, I'm not sure how much influence the beta testers will have over the interface and such.

Anyway I'm super stoked about the product, and I don't want to be too judgemental on you guys, since I really hope you will be able to contribute to the beta testing, that you will have fun doing so and that the product will be good in the end.

Definitely the improving the product part. I spend so much time playing dominion online, I want this to be both worth my money and time. Though I certainly won't be upset about having early  access to the product..

It's good that you want to improve the product, but do you want to make it suit you or Rio Grande/FunSockets the general public?

It's important to note that the developers on the forum are probably the most qualified to help and post detailed bug reports. This includes myself. However to your more specific point of note, if help improve the product to your liking it will improve it for the general public. Assume you have 2 different mind sets testing the product and that X and Y are contradictory features

"I THINK THAT X IS REALLY IMPORTANT"
"I THINK THAT Y IS REALLY IMPORTANT"

whats the answer here? A toggle. If X and Y are both actually important you can please one person or none.

I've been involved in quite a few beta tests recently, and a lot of them its not even important if you report bugs, a lot of the time they just want to test the server for how many people it can handle.

So back to where I started, if you think X would make the product better in general for you, it's probably going to make it better in general for the user base, and therefore Rio Grande and Donald X

I don't understand why all of the above can't be an option here.

It's unrealistic to expect anybody to know how to make the product better except for themselves. FunSockets can always choose to ignore suggestions if they want to. Besides, it can be easier to squeeze money from a hardcore audience long-term, after casual players have moved on to something else. (Imagine, for example, pay-to-enter tournaments with prizes.)

@Insomniac: The thing is that most of the people I've seen express themselves about the product says it's not enough iso for them. I don't think that this will primarily be marketed to the top iso players who wants their iso because it's fast and competitive, but that may be a wild and possibly wrong assumption. I guess what I mean is that what if the beta testers are 50% iso-lovers while the players using the final product are 98% non-iso-lovers? Not that it's anything wrong at all with being an iso-lover.

@WanderingWinder: It can be, but it hasn't got to be that way. I guess I'm just cynical.

@blueblimp: Again, I'm kind of assuming that most people from here would like the product to be iso 2. There is a difference in trying to get the product to work as intended and trying to get it to work as you'd like it.
