BeanGW 0 Posted April 9, 2006 Share Posted April 9, 2006 Hey guys...Well, I dunno... I was a little late getting set up so I couldn't even find the 630pm Beta Tourney's on there. Don't know how to sign up for the 830pm event. In the meantime, I've been playing career mode. Are any of you guys in the tourney??? What are your thoughts so far?In the meantime, I've set up an STT called FCP Stacked. If anybody feels like playing please join me as I'd like to see if this is working.BTW... Mr. Negreanu, I've got lots of suggestions for your team so far. Stacked is a very pretty game graphically, but I played the career mode for a while, and it would be nice if you could choose your limits or whether to play NL/Limit. Seems like all the players here are weak tight/passive...A few small tips:1. I think the Check/raise/call/fold should be a separate area from the menu that allows you to do other things (see hold cards etc). It's kinda easy to accidently make a call when you were just trying to change the cam mode.2. From within the playing mode, how do you exit to the main menu?3. I know at some point there are tells involved, but until then, there should be a way to speed up play when you've folded preflop. I know you want to try to match the casino experience, but this is still a video game.Just some prelim thoughts.OK. I've figured it out, and I'm signed up for the 830pm beta tourney.

From within the playing mode, how do you exit to the main menu?Press Escape and click leave table3. I know at some point there are tells involved, but until then, there should be a way to speed up play when you've folded preflop. I know you want to try to match the casino experience, but this is still a video game.Click the little Chip in the bottom left corner or press enter and it starts spinning really fast and play speeds upJust some prelim thoughts.OK.

I've figured it out, and I'm signed up for the 830pm beta tourney.#1 - I agree#2 - Hit Escape for the menu#3 - you can click on the chip in the bottom left corner to speed things up when you fold or when the cards are being dealt out. There should be a "fast mode" though so you don't have to continuously click this.All in all I agree with you that the graphics are cool but the play is kind of weak. I mean it really is rocket science to program a poker player - I know it could never be perfect. And it isn't terrible. But I guess after a week of oooh and ahhh I will realize - oh god, this is play money poker. And then i'll go back to FCP!I will try this online multi though to help with beta - starting in 20 mins.

I'm sure all issues will be addressed and fixed. Link to post Share on other sites
