And yes, you most likely do need a degree in Computer Science to test video games.

No.

Well, that showed me. My apologies.

Seeing as we're the same people, I don't know why you thought that.

Also thank you bungie employee for helping me explain how in reality you don't need a college degree to test video games. And for showing that I do know what I am talking about.
You're not getting a job for Bungie out-of-site as a tester when they could just have someone else come into their studio every day, especially with 0 experience.

Period.

Sir please stay on topic, also to you comparing about his post, you aren't ping at all. You are bringing the thread even more off topic. So if we can all post good helpful stuff about the topic I would appreciate it.

To be a tester? no. but its also not a walk in the park.

See the first thing? Two plus years software testing experience....I highly doubt you'vd done this, but I'd actually like to know...maybe you're older then you seem.

btw, this doesn't mean playing games, it means professional or semi-professional experience ACTUALLY testing SOFTWARE (not restricted to video games).

Now lets hit the rest shall we?

2. Strong organizational skills

3. Experience creating test cases

4. Strong communication skills

5. Strong troubleshooting ability

6. Have strong bug-writing and investigational abilities as well as be a born problem solver

7. Must be willing to execute complicated regression scenarios using multiple platforms (multi-tasking)

8. Ability to work in a cross-discipline environment with a desire to work closely with designers and engineers to verify their systems work properly in networked environments

9. Familiarity with Microsoft Office Excel, Word, and Outlook

10. Must be adaptable and willing to handle daily randomization

11. Willingness to work over 40 hours per week when necessary to ensure the quality of the project


I would like to here how you can fill all of those requirements.
I've come to realize everyone deserves a voice on here, so go for it. Maybe you are qualified...I have my doubts...but hey, I've been know to be wrong......once.

No. They will not. You are not worth the hassle. And Bungie (usually) doesn't want people who need a start in the field. Have you ever seen the job requirements on the jobs page? (Almost) all of them require more than a year of experience. Bungie doesn't need people who don't know what they're doing.

They want the best of the best; not someone who's never even begun to dabble in their chosen profession.

Really? I'm not sure about that, everyone has to start somewhere, plus why not have people from different areas around the world test your game? You would get more opinions, more styles of testing and possibly more helpful feedback. I'm not saying they would, but it is quite possible.

OP has messaged me before asking for advice on how to get popular on the site because I look like somebody who has successfully achieved such a feet.

I think they may be legit. Or they like to role play.

I think you should make a post it, and get people to sign it, if you get 100 yes's, then I think they'll have an interview with you.

According to a related thread the OP created back in March, he was only 13 at the time, which would explain his mix of passion and - for want of a better word - naiveté. I say give the guy a break, and hopefully the thread's taught him a couple of things about what a game testing job actually involves.
