more transparent roadmap and new beta state - 08/06/14 06:42

Hi,

a lot of users are complaining about the lack of information in connection with engine development and bug fixing. I started a new game project and found great free online solutions for project management which are also suitable for this purpose, for example trello https://trello.com/home Both the state of development and of bug-fixings based on forum feedback could be seen there with an approximate time frame. You can of course hide secret things on non-public or on beta testers only boards.

It is already used by another nice little game engine for very similar purposes https://trello.com/b/gHooNW9I/ue4-roadmap

Thanks.

Oh so visitors/gamestudio3d users get to vote too which bug fix or new features they find most urgent/important? That sounds like a great idea Sivan.

Would be even better if they could feasibility on a scale of 1 to 10 or something like that (they can simply add that as text in a card ofcourse).

But what use does this have, when the developer obviously does not care?
We can then be there at Trello instead of here and wait while staring at nothing but years old announcements.
It is not the platform for exchanging informations, that must change, it is the attitude.

Trello is a nice software, but indeed only makes sense when there is much to report on the new feature front. This is currently not the case.

...and if it would be possible to vote on new features by users to see its real importance by the developers.
