The painful truth is ...

[Wraieth]

Theres alot of people defending the game wich is fine. theres alot of people bashing the game wich is also fine.But the simple truth like it or not is this.

I dont care how long it takes to work out bugs and other issues in game. Thats thier jobs just like mines catching bad guys another poster is an electrition. Your what ever you do.

Its why they do the patches behind the scenes ,its why the test them on a closed server, its why they are supposed to work this out before release. So if they do all that then still release these bug ridden patches and fail to fix things they claim are fixed. Then it is THIER FAULT.

We did our part we played beta. We reported bugs . Hell even when that wasnt fixed we bought the game. So if they fail at thier jobs its no exscuse it is simply a fail and the reasoning behind it makes no matter at all.

If we all fail at our jobs we have failed its no diffrent for them. I dont give a flying leap what the reason is fail is fail. We all have done it at some point. And sure it happenes to us all. But if it is a constant fail and a constant mistakes being made .It isnt long till we have no job or worse for some of us. They are no diffrent its a job they do a service they work for someone.

If they continue to fail then toss thier *** out and get someone who can but for gods sake stop defending thier **** ups.. Sure i like the game and sure i will keep playing.

Hell i like ny mets but dosnt keep them from sucking. but whats the point of pretending things arnt busted. And how much is enough?

People can bash them praise them kiss thier arses or kick them to the curb in the end it makes no diffrence they have gotten things right and wrong. but just because they got some things right dosnt exscuse the wrong. atleast not in my book.

Oh and before anyone says something about this being the truth. Its my truth it is how i percieve it if you dont see it this way. then more power to you,

p.s i have both defended this game and called them out on stupid crap. But im just about out of defense in this games case. Again just my own perspective not asking anyone to feel the same.

What is the point you are attempting to discuss here because all I see is another rant ?

You sir hit the nail bang on the head the devs on the team are not doing there job.
My thoughts is they have give up with this game as it is not profitable for them due to poor sales across all platforms. Player numbers are falling everyday if you don't believe me go to mount tam have a look how many new players there is ?? Add to that players giving up

+1. TL;DR

By OP's logic if he fails in his job he should be drawn and quartered.

my point is simple. It dosnt matter if its code work . electrical, plumbing or pumping freaking gas at the quicky mart. If you have a job do it right or get someone who can.

The gameing industry should be no different.

if i fail on my job someone could end up very dead. so maybe that makes me alittle biased but dosnt change the fact if you cant do your job right then you should be replaced by someone who can.

Lol ,,,i no what you meen ,,like is he writeing a book about it,,,,lol

How have they failed at their job? They are working on fixing problems that are coming up. Their job is not over and they are constantly working on the problems. The have not failed until they stop working on the problems and just give up which is not the case. If you fail on catching someone one week does that mean you failed? No, you keep searching for that person until you catch them.

The problem though, which even you touched on in your first post is perception. Failure in video game design isn't a binary state like "Police: criminal caught, criminal got away" or "Electrician: electricity works, electricity doesn't work."

While everyone might agree an instance which fails to load is an obvious bug that needs to be addressed, not everyone would argue that PVP is broken, or something is too easy, or prices too low, or RNG isn't optimal. Sweeping generalizations about failure and comparisons to other professions are not the answer.

Not so, with plumbing etc action A with tool B on object C equals result D. The same happens with coding except that there is the possibilty of event E happening too. Another way of looking at it is taking your plumber, he fixes the leaky tap in the kitchen meaning the water pressure in the system raises ever so slightly because the leak was relieving it. Now that increase is too much for the tap in the bathroom so it starts leaking.

Lines of code rarely do anything that does not affect something else.
