I think Turbo deserves a lot of it. I love Wicked Whims and I like the direction he has taken it over it's lifetime. It really has evolved into an interesting adult mod. When I read the changelog for each new version I usually smile at what he's added or changed, but then I remember that it's going to have some bugs and errors for a few hours, if not days. It's not my place to tell him how to run his business, but he needs to seriously consider some quality control people, or just one. I know this isn't a sustainable business model in the long-term, but it is his business currently. If he already has QC people, it's time to shit-can them and hire someone else. If he just had a person, or 2, look over his code before release and point out discrepancies he'd be better off for it. I understand he's crowd-sourcing testers through the Patreon program, but that is quite possibly the worst way to handle it. Patrons are customers, not lab-rats.
I support Redfaction and his attempts. I hope he makes a billion/month; I really do. I also hope that he takes his mod seriously when it gets that big. I hope for big things and I'll be looking to support him when/if his project works as well, or better than, WW.
The prosecution rests, your honor.
Its to be expected that the shit will have nuts in it from update to update,
We're talking about a mod, not a licensed expansion from the devs themselves,
It's very difficult to account for however many billion combinations of script mods that people use which could break it,
A team of testers isn't really a viable option when working with people online too and it's probably not something he'd like to be running an office for either,
Some testers may get a little too engrossed on other games and not give accurate results also it's tough to find a team that runs and plays the game in varying ways,
Like how many testers would need to be employed too?
10 or 20 wouldn't be enough when you consider how many ways the game can be played or broken,
Personally I'm a patron of his too and I'd much rather the fixes on the fly than a game that's broken for a month while I'm paying for the privilege
