You know when beta opened and there were a ton of bugs I was like ok its new its bata.. give them time.

6 months later there are still the same bugs.. Are the bugs kicking the Dev's arses? Do you need better Dev's or are you saying "F" the players cause they are still dumping money in the game?

I would rather see you fix one of the 6 Hud bugs then see another mech come out common guys this is getting old.

[Roadbeer]

This is serious business, you should turn it into a poll.

[Hood]

I was hoping that enough people were fed up with the bugs.. but I guess not.

[Roadbeer]

You were hoping that people visiting the forum of a game that is in BETA were going to back your play?

Dude, you're a Founder, if you've been playing this long and haven't learned to adjust...

well, I can't help you.

see you soon

[TheCas]

bugs????.....what bugs?

[Nicholas Carlyle]

He's right but the devs wont respond to 100 page posts. Why bother?

[HighlandCoo]

I rarely experience a HUD bug (sometimes my mini map loses tracking of my torso, oh and sometimes I cannot tab for the scoreboard without hitting escape twice)

But it's not game killing. It must be you.

[One Medic Army]

Bugs still exist.
They're much less frequent, thus things have improved.

[Roadbeer]

I think what we can sum up from this is...

Bugs have been fixed, but not the ones HE deems important. Which is a tragedy.

This attitude is one of the BIG problems with today's Idiocracy.

Basically what you are saying is:

"accept poorly coded crap and just get used to it".

No thanks, I'm not consumer cattle.

PGI will never get a dime of my money until they square up some of the
coding problems.

Given that the problems seem to be only getting worse they need to man
up and admit they cannot fix the bugs and hire someone that can.

If they hire someone who can straighten out the code I'll gladly pay into the
product.

As it sits, not a chance.

Calling it beta and expecting bugs is one thing, having the SAME bug for 3 months is not...

[Malora Sidewinder]

Actually you're in the minority. for most people the game is getting *less* buggy every patch.

granted i NEVER have the 4 FPS bug anymore, but i crash to desktop more than usual.

that said i'd rather crash than be forced to play with 4 fps.

slowly but surely the bugs are being eliminated. get down off your soap box, put the pitchfork away, and remember.

Less QQ more pewpew.

[Roadbeer]

If it was poorly coded crap, don't you think it would be widespread problem?

Only one i see talking about it... is...well... you.

Edit:

Sorry, saw two concurrent posts from a Steiner and thought they were both you Hood.

Anyway, I'd be willing to bet cashy money that you don't have near the frequency of show stopping bugs that you had 6 months ago.
Big bugs first, little ones later. A HUD issue isn't as show-stopping as the yellow screen was. Sure my HUD disappears once a week, and the mini-map once every couple days. But it's not NEARLY as bad as it was 6 months ago.

When they have the UI 2.0 out and there are still bugs, then I would complain a bit at that point.

But since they've stated they are making changes, even with the vision modes. It's not my top concern right now.

They happen quite a bit less than they used to, and there hasn't been a sign of that yellow screen bug.

Your point is? oh wait, if we all jump up and down RIGHT THIS MINUTE, the earth will change it's trajectory and we will solve global warming (or make it worse)?

Or maybe you think if we all jump up and down RIGHT THIS MINUTE, the dev's will feel the pounding on the earth, think it's an earth quake and start to fix the bugs faster?

Or maybe you think if we all jump up and down RIGHT THIS MINUTE, the dev's will take pity on us and put more bodies on the bug tracker and squash more bugs?

In the end, it's all about how many people they throw at squashing bugs and how complex they are. Posting about not being happy about bugs is not going to change how they allocate programming hours. Unfortunately, since the majority of people keep giving money while the product is in Beta, they are pretty much free to do what they want ... regardless of whether we all jump up and down RIGHT THIS MINUTE to get their attention.

yeeeeah I havent had a crash to desktop in a handful of patch cycles, have only had a bugged hud once in recent memory, and.. yeah not much else to report on my end =/

Read the post please.. I said same bug.. not less buggy not different bug.. Same bug...
Like I said I get the game having bugs its beta.. but when my Hud has a problem every 5th drop for the last 3 months i think there is a problem.

[slimebucket]

I made a post here talking about this exact thing

http://mwomercs.com/...it-like-a-beta/


Basically I just tell people this is not being treated as a beta. Not trying ti insult, put anyone down or anything just trying to tell it like it is, and it's astonishing to see how many people get offend over it to the point of insulting.


That post is actually the second one about the topic, my first one I made about it I got insulted like 20 times, I made 1 reply stating how everyone who is insulting is not adding anything to the conversation, and in fact just making themselves look like fools and my post gets moved and locked


Beta is just an excuse for the devs to use as to why some things in the game suck and are still "unfinished"


and the amount of cunsomer sheep is crazy, the amount of people who get offened and take the time to defend a company that is making millions of dollars.. They won't defend their own rights, or their rights of their family, but they will take the time to stick up for a company that is only "using" them...

[neviu]

I did read the post, I don't see where you describe any set issue where anyone could provide the slightest bit of feedback... all I saw was a crapton of rage and QQ.

And like I said, if it was a widespread problem, I would see a post on it.

But since I can't actually tell WHAT your problem is, I cant say if it's a widespread problem.

have you updated your drivers? Reinstalled the game? Taken even the most basic proactive step towards seeing if the problem is on your end?

Or are you just rageposting?

Also, the Devs who make mechs, are different than the ones who squash bugs. Basically you just accused your plumber of not fixing your lightsocket.
