I don't think they'd be able to keep up with that many testers... Then again, I wouldn't know.I wonder how many beta testers will be chosen...
I hope more than 200 will be or i'm pretty sure I won't be one of them

1.3.1 or otherworld beta?
Testing focus will initially be 1.3.1 and future updates. Later if you are one of the chosen you may be asked to help with ToW or other projects. 
I've consulted with the team and their response was... .... hold on, it's stuck on a corner.Um... just throwin this out there but.... Can I work for Re-Logic as a tester? PLEASE?

"Ask again later"
That would've been nice to know when I applied as far as what the questions are meant for...i thought they were more meant to be about showing you're able to think creatively about a situation and provide potential leads about the source of the bug. Puts a completely different light knowing that it's supposed to be answered like a report, not just a "explain the bug".Addressing the aforementioned points:
Should an answer be left blank on the application:
To the point of leaking information:
- I will be reading every application fully, meaning a blank field (other than the optional bug) will be looked upon poorly
- I would much rather see a response of "I am not sure what is going on here, but I feel this is not the intended function, please advise" than a blank field
- This shows me you are willing to report something out of place at the risk of sounding ignorant
- (ignorance is nothing to be ashamed of, simply overcome by furthering your education)
- The only exception to this is the optional bug, where I will add points. Keep in mind though, over-explaining or incorrectly making assumptions about the optional bug can be detrimental to your application as well. Don't answer with the assumption you know what is going on (pro-tip: Explain what you see, not what you think)
I am looking for professional individuals capable of playing the game and reporting issues with the goal of improving quality and user enjoyment.
- If you feel incapable of protecting company privacy, do not apply
- If you have an overwhelming urge to brag to your friends about your beta status, do not apply
- If you just can't wait to tell the world about all the new features and how amazing they will make the game, do not apply
- If you want to join the beta to find bugs, keep them secret, and exploit post release, do not apply
Self control is amazing, but knowing who you are and what you can do for the company is even better. If you don't think you can accomplish what I am asking here... Please, don't apply; save yourself, and the community, the trouble.
- Your focus will be to assist with game testing, even if repetitive, to find and reproduce issues the developers can fix prior to release
- A great example: Some of our testers have generated hundreds of worlds and repeatedly killed the same boss hundreds of times to vet out balance, drop rates, world gen issues, etc.
I do appreciate every single application and everyone who plays the game. However, not everyone is up to the task of being a tester. Be confident, motivated, and eager to help out. Only then, will you be someone selected for testing!
Sorry for the long-winded response, but I felt the information worth being shared.

I believe 1.3 was just when Red stepped down and gave over main development to the rest of the team. I could be wrong, but that's what I remember.You guys are adding even more content to Terraria? Wow i thought 1.3 was going to be the end of it. That's great to hear
Yea, Red will move on to work on T:OW, while a small part of the team will continue to work on Terraria...I believe 1.3 was just when Red stepped down and gave over main development to the rest of the team. I could be wrong, but that's what I remember.
