Bug Infestation!

This game is getting ridiculous with the amount of bugs, both new and old. I'm not just talking about pvp bugs, but crafting and client crash bugs too. I can understand that when releasing a new patch there are bound to be a few bugs, but what has been happening in the last year is patch after patch with bugs, and no fixing of the current bugs.

To date this year I'd say the only really decent bug fix was the fix of magic reflect. All the other supposed bug fixes in patches have been mere stocking fillers that fix things that affect almost no one.

The bug list from June 2011 speaks volumes.

Where's the beef?

the fix of magic reflect.
This have something to do with Reflect Armor and Magic Resist spells? I was just looking at this for a fix for a crappy suit set i have - what did they change?

Sevin, if you're unaware of that the bug fix was, you probably play in trammel.

This is the difference between the trammel fixes and pvp bug fixes, the trammel bugs don't particularly ruin the game for trammel players however the pvp bugs cause frustration for players on a daily basis.

Did they fix reflect physical mod on armor as well? It had the same problem, which is why for years no matter how good the armor piece was and how much i actually would like reflect physical i've just tossed any piece that had it :/

Yeah.. actually the best way to fix most of these bugs is to just wipe Fel and send all the Fellucians on to some other game.

Actually i'm just giving ya a little crap Mervyn, I just wanted to point out that your post does come off a little Trammelphobic.

I do agree though.. I'd be willing to see six months with nothing but bug fixes... no EM events.. No new content.. No graphic updates.. just 6 months of dedicated bug fixes.

But how many other people would agree?

I'm sorry, EA and polished video games are mutually exclusive. You can only choose one.

I'm not just saying that devs should only work on pvp related bugs, i'd just like more bugs to be fixed in general, but yeah i am saying pvp bug fixes should be prioritised.

I did say originally that the only good fix this yeah was the magic reflect fix, but there was another bug with people being able to mount faction horses while paralised that was fixed about a year ago but the team never actually published that it was fixed, it was just one of those treats that went below the radar. But if there's a dev reading i'd like to show my appreciation for this fix. (although there are some prepatch hiryus etc out there that are still bugged in this way)

This has been fixed for at least 5 years

Signed/ Fix some bugs. The game doesn't need new content constantly. It's already too big as it is.

reflect phys isn't a good mod for pvm, either. procs medusa's stone form, for example. it's probably one of the worst mods in the game, but it was fun for awhile when AOS first came out...like the first few 50% hit lightning weps and the like ;D.

My god i didnt think id see the day when people would rather have bug fixes over content!

Props to all who agree!

Im firmly in the bug fix camp!

Agree............ it is already too big. No more EM events or new content. It's like driving a barely running vehicle, and knowing the next time it stops working may be the death of it.

just fix the bugs, Fel or Tram, i don't care...... Six months of bug fixes should go a long way.

As far as I know those that do the EM events are vastly different from those that fix bugs. EM's are not Devs, unless of course a Dev "moonlights" as an EM, which is doubtful imo. Leave the EM events up and running either way tho.

as soon as I hit enter, I realized that EM events are most likely totally separate and in no way would determine fixing bugs.

good point, Kylie... makes sense to me.

5 years? hmm, last time i tried it was about 2 years ago and it was still bugged, if someone attacked you YOU went gray and got guardwhacked. And who said anything about pvm?

It was not bugged 2 years ago. I've played a red with 110 rpd for more than 2 years.

hmm, maybe the issue was siege specific, I started on siege in 09 and got guard whacked from RFD when i tried it out then.
