Test Server SG idea?

For some reason, the live servers do not work on my computer, so I can only play on the Training Room. I was thinking about possibly starting a SG (hero or villain, I don't care) for those people who want to play on the Training Room as their main server.

Any ideas would be greatly appreciated.

How do they not work? Do you mean now while they are doing internal tests?
Have you contacted support?

In the time since I made the original post, I was able to get the live servers to work. Still, I am interested in setting up a SG for testers. (If nothing else, it's another base to build! )

Considering the lack of replies, it looks like there is not any interest in a SG on test. It was worth a try to ask, though.

Yes, I know that. But I feel it's worth it for the chance to get rid of bugs that would otherwise attack the live servers.

This is why the request for the ability to copy a base over to test has been on the base builder's wishlist (see my sig) for a looooonnnnggg time.

At the very least, they could give us a couple mil in prestige, so that it would be relatively effortless to throw up a medium sized base... But I'm thinking that won't happen until they actually have something base-related to test out, y'know, "Soon" (tm).

I seem to recall hearing about some Test Server only SG's a long time ago. Not sure if they are still around.


If the game spit out 20 dollar bills people would complain that they weren't sequentially numbered. If they were sequentially numbered people would complain that they weren't random enough.

Black Pebble is my new hero.

If it's for base building count me in. I really haven't gotten much of a chance to build one. My sgs never get off the ground or I join an existing one. That's how it's been working.

Edit: I logged onto a toon I haven't used since proliferation (mind/mind blaster, didn't know what sets were proliferated), and he had become owner of an old (and dead) test server sg lol. BTW I'm suprised his patroll exp hasn't got him a dayjob badge x.x

Right now I'm swamped with schoolwork. In a couple weeks I'll be able to think about a test SG.

That would be nice.

As it is now I copy over a couple of my characters with a large share of inf, email it to my main in the SG on test, and convert it into prestige.

Well, my richest villain (my Mastermind) only has a couple million infamy, and my richest hero (my Scrapper) has even less influence than my Mastermind has infamy. So that's not an option for me.

Clunky workaround... and so unnecessary when all the devs have to do is "push a button" so to speak. We know the code already exists for prestige grant.
