Test Scene... what the hell?

[Ruthven]

Hey everyone. I'm starting this thread to see if anyone can enlighten me on what's happening with the test scene. it's a place near Bulen or Burglen or a town with a name something like that and I would very much like to know why it is there. I have already searched this topic but it didn't bring much information. The strangest thing is, when I go into the test scene, me and my five companions (Borcha, Lezalit, Alayen, Jeremus, Firentis) are standing on a wall, with one of my party members floating off the edge. when I talk to them, they say surrender or die, then I say I am not afraid and will fight. then nothing happens. Stranger still, when I talk to either Borcha, Alayen or Firentis (All of them I had told to leave my party in the past, but Lezalit and Jeremus, whom I had not ridden from my party, challenge me to fight.) they say what they said when I hired them back to my party, then it says ________ has rejoined your party. I asked all three of them and they all "rejoined my party" then asked them again and they "rejoined" me again. then I left, and it said I had 12 people in my party. as I have stated before, I only had 6 (myself included) but when I checked the "party" list it still only had my 6 men's names there, no doubles or anything else. (which kind of sucks, because Borcha, Firentis and Alayen are all very skilled, all of them being at least level 30 ) anyways, I just want to know why that's there. I currently have version 0.955 downloaded, if it makes a difference to anything. Well, I hope someone can shed some light on what's happening.

It's a glitched map and Armagan didn't remove it, that's all.

I thought "Test Scene" in a Beta wouldn't need explaining would it?, but Triosta is correct it is a remnant from developer testing.

I don't have the "Test Scene" in my .955 game, that was only from .953 as far as I know.

The test scene isn't in 0.955, so maybe you didn't patch correctly. Also, if you saw a sign that said "Wet Paint", would you make a forum post about it and ask what it's for? Same should apply to something as obvious as "test scene".

Huh?  I have .955 and I see the test scene place.  I also entered it once just for the heck of it.  I had version .953 and then patched to .955.  Anyway, when I start the game up it clearly shows that it's version .955.

I wasn't concerned about the test scene because, you know, the game still is in the testing phase after all.

The test scene only shows in .955 if you patched from .953. If you used the full installer, you won't see it.

Oh, come on guys.. He said he did a search and didn't find it, it is a curious thing..

I don't recall anyone getting out flame throwers or dunce hats when the first guy posted about it.. He could have searched a little better but then the number of repeat threads around here these days is insane.

Plus I just did a search for "test scene" and only a single random post in a thread about opening gates in sieges came up. The search function here seems extremely moody and often just downright dysfunctional, I know for a fact that there was a whole thread just about the "test scene" that had the phrase "test scene" in it numerous times.. I have notice this type of problem with the search here many times in the past too  . Maybe if the search function were fixed we would have less repeat topics here?

and why do certain party members challenge me to a fight and why do some of them "rejoin" me? but since nobody seems to have any answers

Conversational bugs. If they haven't been told to say something, they will reset to their default conversation. In this case, fighting and talking about joining.
