Making the Game: Design Schedule (February 18, 2009)

[Bandit LOAF]

This lenghty document is an exacting mission-by-mission pass schedule for Wing Commander Prophecy -- when each one must be completed and ready for the various milestones (Alpha, Beta, E3, ECTS, etc.) I would say that the fan projects could learn from this -- but they seem to have a pretty professional testing system already in place! Also note the fact that the various multiplayer points are 'not started'.

These updates are thanks to John "Captain Johnny" Guentzel, who provided several CD image archives of material used by the Wing Commander Prophecy development team!

Yikes, they didn't have long before Beta to get through all of those missions. I imagine they still had a long to debug with only pass three through the missions started.
