O.k. I have no idea if this is the right place to post this, so I'm trying here, as I feel it is a technial issue. Everytime it seems there is a patch implemented, we get the usual "Patch notes will be available after the update". Why is that!. You the developers already know what is going to be patched/changed so why can't you post the notes as soon as you take the servers down? It's not like anybody can do anything, apart from moan, which will happen after the patch note's are released anyway. This way it stop's a lot of people asking what happened etc in chat channels. It just makes sense to me, that's all.
Thanks

Hints in mission descriptions? Reading them? Remarkably I do that everytime I do a mission.It kind of helps to tell you what your supposed to do and thats what I'm pointing out. Half the time they don't equate to what you actually have to do. Seeing as this is the Development>Technical Issues and Bugs forum I assumed that posting in away that it is to a developer kind of makes sense.If I had posted in the say,Players guides section, then posting to a developer would be kind of pointless as I would be asking the Players for help.
As for facts on what mission descriptions are wrong,I'll create a new character and try to play thru all the mission arcs again and I'll try and log everyone of the mission descriptions down. This may take awhile as I will try and hit every single contact to fairly report all the faulty descriptions and /bug them all.
edit:Just got a reply of a developer who had read the post.Strange that.

I apologise now if there is already a thread about this but god it's annoying. I have just run 10 missions in a row and out of them the mission descriptions have been totally wrong. If a mission description says something like "Rescue 3 hostages", I expect to rescue 3 hostages. Sometimes I guess that clearing the room their in will end the mission, that at times is what needs to be done. That normally happens when you kill a boss or get a glowie. The hostage missions should do what they say on the description,you have to rescue the hostages,nothing else. All the missions I ran in that 10 mission run, I rescued the hostages and the mission didn't end. So I thought I needed to clear the rooms they were in.Still no mission end. I then had to clear 5 floors of the map,a kill everything to finish the mission.
For gods sake if you want us to rescue the hostages and kill everything state that in the mission description. This issue has gone on forever, there is no excuse to why it hasn't been corrected when you have fixed some minor things gamewise and this is a major one as at times it takes the fun out of the game. It leaves me, and probably a lot of other people, frustrated at having to go back and clear a whole map that the mission description didn't tell us to do.
Please look at this and correct the faulty mission descriptions.

Reading this thread again (nostalgia time), it has brought a smile to my face. I took time out for a longtime to play other games but still know a lot of players. Reading this, it would be fun to see someone create an "originals" Sg. Not a "been here blah,blah months", just a "Been here since year 1 " SG. No "ego", no "arrogance", just the toon we started with kind of thing. Would just be nice to just see all those toons listed under 1 banner for nostalgia sake.
