I really just wondered if anyone has such a job and could tell me how the job was, how was the work environment and any other relevant or useful information you guys could have :D Also, here's a poll to see who wants me to get such a job. Cuz I can make a poll. Poll: Should I get a job as a QA Video game tester? If all else fails, yes. (25) No (17) Yes (11) 53 total votes Your vote: Should I get a job as a QA Video game tester?  | ||

I can ask him for some more info if you can be a little bit more specific, says a list of 10 questions will do. | ||

As far as I know, some companies give you 1 stage to play on and tell you "I want you to jump over this same platform 9000 times and see if you bug out. When you do find a bug write us a report of why it happened and write the process of creating this bug" | ||

Pretty much that, minus the detail feeding, they make you sign an NDA.  | ||

But if you really don't want to move forward with it, chances are you'll be much happier doing something else. | ||

Also, you would most likely not test deux ex 3, but some random whack boring phone game that you would have to play all day. | ||

Also, you would most likely not test deux ex 3, but some random whack boring phone game that you would have to play all day. I'm okay with that. I don't really mind smaller, probably more childish game. In those cases, I'd probably try to break it so much the release day would have to be pushed back  | ||
