A Serious Suggestion to Nevrax (patching)

[rushin]

I'll keep it short (just reloading after 2nd crash tonight post 14th dec patch, maybe it was caused by my target of lamp_post_1 in the deep jungle)

Allocate more time to testing. Having less content in a patch is preferable to more/promised content that isnt ready. Every time.

Worst case delay the patch a day. You are going to keep more ppl happy if you do

thx

Just had my fifth crash ,its the same type as i get entering Zora -loads of disc access followed by access violation. Never going into Zora is a pain but livable but these have happened entering/leaving Min-Cho and also getting close to the Anti-kami camp in Umbra

Point is they DID test it, on the ATS!

Loads of bugs made it into this patch that were posted on the ATS forum. They knew about them, they just didn't bother.

Release and be damned!

Even if the software is rubbish!

no, they had a whole community hovering over their necks ready to bite if they didn't put new stuff online, and they figured, they'd get bitten one way or another, and put it online, to fix the bugs later

Oh right, sure, yeah, get real!

So let's say they had taken the approach they did during beta and delayed release a few days while they fixed the bugs, plus posted INFORMATION to that effect, keeping us INFORMED that there were bugs and they were going to fix them first.

We would, of course, have been up in arms, cancelled our accounts, gone over to Paris and lynched them. We wouldn't have said "that's cool, least it'll work properly when it's released". Right?

guys we should all make a stand on this and stop defending nevrax..... we pay subscriptions and im pretty sure a large part of our subscriptions go in to the running of this server and the test server.... if there not using the test server properly why not close it down and charge less subscription? starwars galaxies has tons more servers than this there patches go on the test server about 3 weeks b4 going live so they get 3 weeks fixing it b4 its released it seems nevrax push all there testing in to a week the bug fixing is done in live... on our time.....

[exelsiar]

yeah im with helbret on this one, they should use the ats properly, tis a waste of valuable cash, cause i know servers arnt cheap to run.

10 access violations after patch 30 yesterday before i finaly gave up , just had my 7th today (patch 32)....

I had thought it was a zone entering/leaving problem (maybe new textures or something not being loaded in time for use?) , but i get it just harvesting around the anti-kamis without moving very far since the last crash/log in

Edit = 4th to 7th
