    easy to talk when you run on PC, come to console and we talk about it again, we have reported hundreds of bugs, which are still there, in the code to wander, bugs that were reported in August.
    the only good thing was the safety car that you managed to solve.
    and I repeat, you like those who praise you, and not those who criticize you, from mistakes you learn, if instead you see only those who praise you and those who say that you do things perfectly you will not go anywhere

    I don't want to sound harsh, but my stance remains. 

    I've not seen any completed bug reports from you. I understand your frustration about not getting into BETA, but make it easy for us to add you in into future titles. There's a chance if you report stuff, and we can do it, it'll go into the game at some point as part of an update. 

    And, with deeper dive patch notes continuing for 2020, you'll even get the credit for it. Can't say fairer than that.

    I understand the frustration of many, who have been receiving the beta for years, and this year they see it in the hands of people who arrived the day before yesterday, and who do nothing but praise the game and say it is perfect just to play it a month before the release, instead of preferring people who say things as they are, and what the real problems of the game are.

    Not true here. Our selection process involved what I mentioned before, but we also need players with a wide range of abilities and experience with the series too.

    If you have not been selected, thats unfortunate. Some will have very justified reasons, some will be just unlucky. There is a lot of users on the BETA program who have been critical of the game, but portrayed it in the correct way. I'm sure @Bicarda won't mind me using him as a perfect example. 

    I think its fair to say he's critical of the game, and he lets me know that. However, after discussing and seeing the direction I wanted to take things, he took it upon himself to contribute and help. He started to post extensive, complete bug reports and still does so.. He joined the league to experience things first hand and give his experience. He still lets me know when things are wrong, but works together to try and put things right. He actively (along with others) now understand our direction and put his efforts into helping.

    So come 'BETA season', he's someone I personally highlighted that I wanted on. It became a very easy decision for us to add him and there are others who are the same. When we see their username ( @ReimvomSchleim is my second example) I want them on for their body of work. If you want on the BETA, don't give us a choice. Make us see your user, know that you can help, and we'll add you on. 

    Some are happy to complain but never post a complete bug report.

    Yes then you don't publish beta testing everywhere since you already know who to choose, one can only have beta if he has been here for years, then what reasoning is it? You complicate your life by getting new people into the beta subcription if you already know you won't choose them

    Lots of new players got in, but more by chance than merit. They have the opportunity to take that chance through the 2020 game cycle.

    Want to put yourself in the best position you can, then I've outlined what you would need to do. My side of the matter is: don't leave it to chance. Make us make sure you are selected by contributing and helping us throughout the game cycle, when we need it.

    Why are the same people getting betas while people like myself for last 3 games haven’t been given one , sort out your system . Absolutely disgusted 

    I've gave some pretty relevant information on how to get onto next years @FireBird20.

    Reason those 'same people' get on is because they contribute. I think that's pretty fair.

  5. Yeah, that is pretty much all the parameters we have to work with in these heavily uncertain times.

    In terms of an update, at the moment, I'm unsure. The only issue with this is that we don't know what we are updating yet, as we have nothing to work off for an update.
