Whats with all the daily server updates? Hows about some indication of progress?

12/19/13 - NA/EU Server Update (PC, PS3, 360) @ 10AM PST / 6PM GMT



Whats with all the server updates?


I wouldn't mind so much if you gave us some clue that they're beneficial, or that you're making some kind of progress.
Are they actually working and fulfilling the patch notes expectations, or are you throwing darts and just mentioning something hoping some random verbiage mollifies us?

Sorry, I'm just growing weary of other stuff ceasing to work after a random server patch. Now my preparedness is handing empty/unloaded weapons back to me again.
Is it coincidence? I dunno, but I can't begin to document the whole game every 24 hours to see what got broken (again) since the last time.

For all we know you're just unplugging the servers and going to brunch, or having daily office-wide rubberband fights.


It's starting to look like your pants are falling down and you're walking around the office with one foot firmly wedged in a wastepaper basket.

An indication of progress from someone (anyone) on the dev team... now THERE would be something new and refreshing that this game needs.

My word... :rolleyes:

Stability updates for this game are a joke. I still have yet to get in a major arkfall because of the infamous connection timeouts. And then when I can get back in the arkfall is gone. Whatever.

It's a hotfix there is a post from Morgana in the dev tracker.

edit: they are fixing that battery bug that would cause major arkbreaks to hang at 3/4.

Yeah, I kinda referenced that in the 'patch notes' comment I made on the 3rd line, but as an example - Misfit mentions above yours that they've been making tweaks that leave people still disconnecting but unintended consequences are busting other stuff.

I'm kind of asking for TRION to show us what actually changed for the better as a RESULT of updates, not projected hope-fors that actually break stuff.

My preparedness perk worked with patcher V.1.494627, and my couriers reloaded fine.

Same siege the next day, same weapons, only difference is that it was after the V.1.506463 patcher.
And now my weapons swap back with no ammo loaded in the mag.

This is not what I would generally consider 'progress', unless I traded my working perk for 60% of the people who couldn't play before now happily doing well.

If they fix that bug where the fourth battery doesn't get accounted for I feel it's well worth the server down time. Racing to a clear major impact site only to have a bugged out arkbreak is horrible.

i would say that some new outfits/ clothing choices via the in-game store would me nice :3

My apologies in advance for the bad attitude. I'm having one of those days.
Crasher is 210% correct here!
How do you expect your Q&A department which seems to be your user base, to help you out if you don't at least steer us in the right direction and tell us what you are working on?

maybe they are nerfing the snipers :D

nah will be the bugs with arkfalls and maybe a xmas theme? lol i wish
