Do you think I could just leave this part blank and it'd be okay? We're just going to replace the whole thing with a header image anyway, right?

Is there still any benefit to using the beta website?

Frankly I'm not sure there was ever any benefit to using beta.[ee].com instead of [ee].com, but does it do anything special other than use the old website design?

Re: Is there still any benefit to using the beta website?

It used to during like... 2010. Years ago, Chris made the beta client and the normal client essentially the same (though you still needed beta to login to the former for a while still, for some reason). Since then, there has been no difference between beta.ee.com and the regular website, other than what surrounded the actual game.

I don’t think there is, but personally i’ve always used the beta client so i get completely triggered if i accidentily get linked to the normal client website.

honestly, it's bad enough we have to share a server with the non-beta plebs ?

I use it because I like the website design better.

Is there a difference? It's the same client right? The only difference is how the site looks outside of the client.

There could technically be a difference, but there isn't currently (and there hasn't been for quite a while)

Re: Is there still any benefit to using the beta website?

If I remember correctly, if you were a Beta user, and you played through the Beta website, a small yellow Beta word would appear together with the game name at lobby.

I don't know if this still happens after the overhaul.

At one point beta was separated from the normal game site, Everybody Edits has the ability to split databases by connection types which I'm guessing what was used at that time.

If you look at every other post in this topic except OP you'd see there is not.

Ok but, the beta site looks infinitely better than the non-beta one.

The non beta site is just the game with some dumb background, while the beta site actually has stuff on it, and doesn't feel like a blank piece of paper.


Despite what people say, Different55 is the best mod.

Player.IO didn't have that feature back then, there was no separation beyond beta-only worlds, which merely checked for beta.
