PlanetHOSED The current Mega Patch and its mini patch are...

MrVicchio · 2003-04-18, 03:42 PM

Complete and utter shit. Who ever QC'd this blew it, BIG TIME.

Thankfully, this is but BETA. BUT, that being said, this is a PR disaster, the first real day of open beta and the game is cookies.

Um could you be a bit more specific on whats wrong with it?

Warborn · 2003-04-18, 03:47 PM

I'd like to know what specific issues there are with it also.

I don't care, that's temporary, and that's not what he's referring to i believe. What's wrong with the patch?

About 1 min delay on chat, unstable sanctuary (nothing too new) and really unplayable. It has been great up until now, I may not try until next week with this crap. There will be a lot of unhappy people this weekend if they don't patch again.

It's not like it's the first time the servers have been down, and I seriously doubt Mr.V would make a gripe thread about the servers being down again during a Beta test.

5 - 12 second delay in chat, same with ANY commands I tried....

I went to the Training area... and first It locked up, then wehn I returned I was int he hallway, but the door wouldnt open, I tried recall, I tired IA, I tried suicide, FINALLY suicided, but the game hung up, when I RESTARTED I was in the training area, but that lasted 1 min before the game AGAINH locked up.

There were a BUNCH of new people wondering wahts so great about a laggy game....

The LAG was... unbelievable.

There is something seriously HOSED with the new patch, and with easter comming up, I expect the game to stay hosed.

Yes Warborn thank you, I wouldn't get fussy over something like that, its beta, and I trust the devs WILL fix it, but whomever did this patch, missed something, real big, real bad. It might be one small bit of code, but whatever it is, its BAD!

Seabass03 · 2003-04-18, 03:51 PM

Yes, very dissapointing for all the open people. I was hoping they could enjoy what we have been enjoying. Sad but hopefully they will do an emergency patch next Mon or Tues.

Hamma · 2003-04-18, 03:52 PM

wah?

Dude, this has NEVER been done before. Each day they get more and more users online, thus meaning they have to tweak the server for more and more users.

Sit back, relax, and remember. This is beta, not the live release.

Venoxile · 2003-04-18, 03:52 PM

Wow there's going to be 30,000-60,000 very pissed off people throughout the next week.

afex · 2003-04-18, 03:53 PM

ever thought that 10,000 ppl all trying to log into one server and 3 sanctuaries could be ALOT?

This is not good... Hamma said 'wah', 'dude', 'tweak', and 'relax' all in the same post. I think it's the appocalypse, we're all gonna die.
