Personally, I don't think the game was ready for a beta release !

Post by Miswsecond »

As the title suggests, I personally don't think the game was ready for a beta release.

Please note that I'm not criticizing the developers at all. I don't know much about this, and I can only imagine how hard it is to code a game like this. However, I don't understand how it passed the alpha testing phases.

Sure, the game is playable, but there are still bugs between player positions and the order of play. Above all, the ergonomics are disastrous. The orientation of the table means you can't see it entirely, and the raising mechanic, which only shows the amount added, is not very intuitive and forces you to calculate mentally if you want to make precise bets.

Of course, I didn't expect the same quality as on other specialized poker platforms, but I would have liked a game that was at least minimally comfortable to play.

An option to pass the chips to the BB would have been nice, for example.

I agree. I expect beta games to only containing rule violations in rare cases. But this game does not even increase blind at the promised frequency. I don't know why this was given a pass.

Lots of discussion about whether this was ready to come out of beta, here: viewtopic.php?t=46745

The worst bug in my view is that the pot is sometimes awarded to the wrong player because the software doesn't recognize an ace-to-five straight flush: https://boardgamearena.com/bug?id=125721
