Good afternoon!
Do you like custom maps? Do you have the stomach for greyboxes and layouts? Perhaps an artistic side? How about seeing things before they're public?
The Community Development Team is in need of competitive players with free time and a drive to make the game better. By contributing your ideas, eyes, ears and voice, you can help play an active part in the development of one of your favorite games! You will get to see and play an integral part in upcoming map changes and test new and exciting maps unreleased to the public and before they may even see them!
Applications are accepted worldwide, so don't be afraid.
As an official Map Tester, your duties will include:
*Overseeing current map tweaks & changes
*Testing and critiquing unreleased map balance
*Preliminary greybox testing
*Mapping errors including collision and pathing
*Playing lots of NS2 in scheduled games
Expected tests will commence at 12 PST / 21 CEST every Sunday and possibly Saturday, though a further concrete schedule has not yet been created at this time. After the first set of applicants have been accepted, we can narrow it down for second (or even third) tests per week. We want a time that works for you!
There are plenty of positions available, but act quickly, as it's possible that this will fill up before you know it! If you've just happened upon this post, don't fret. You could be added in the next wave of additional applicants!
