5 min warning? GRR

24 of us in one BAF. Nightstar AND Siege at ONE health point left and we get disconnected.

I'm pretty sure what I'd like to say to the devs right now isn't allowed on these forums.

Toxic Glow: I was tryin' ta teach her not ta refer ta herself in the third person, an it backfired

BOTH EXACTLY ONE HEALTH POINT? NO WAY. We had no problem finishing it. Stinks for you, but I think your fibbing.

Nope both 1 HP left before all of us kicked off server. We go down in stages in health, 20/10/5/2 so a team doesnt get overtaken by bosses

Technically I think that's 1% not 1HP

I didn't even see the warning - I was uisng my freespec. There are lots of things in the game that take over 5 minutes - hard fights, respecs, custume creation, costume editing - and give you little or no chance to see such warnings.

And on top of it all I'm getting repeatedly logged out of the forums.

I sympathize, we were in BAF too, Siege had 6%, Nighstar had 4%...



But seriously, did they find a 0-day-major-ultra-critical-bug-that-could-kill-us-all that made they didn't even let us a 15 min warning?

I hope the powers to be at NCSoft begin to take notice of these comments.

2 Long shut-outs in the space of a week, little or no information as to why it is necessary, and, always during EU prime time.

Ive been playing this game for 5 years and am slowly growing more annoyed at the way we are treated, and more so at the gradual deteriation of the games performance.

If COH was a car, I would have taken it back to the dealer by now and demanded my money back - unsuitable for the use for which it was sold! I pay a subscription to play the game without continual crashes, updates and patches that have to be further updated and patched, and stupid "fun" compensation.

Come on you guys - concentrate on a little Quality of Service, and get this game back to the way it used to play, and stop blaming every problem we encounter on our connection, ISP, or our computer setups - its pretty evident from the size of the program in relation to what it was a couple of years back that its becoming difficult to introduce new features without the probability of something backfiring, and, if NCSoft can make such a large donation to a worthy cause (as they did recently), its pretty apparent there is enough money in the company to dedicate to improving your image with your paying customers, and to getting developemant out of the gutter where it currently stands imho.

Sorry to gripe and slag people off, but this really isn't the game I used to play, and after 5 years of play, Im getting to the point where I wonder if my monthly sub could be invested better elsewhere.


Get away from that computer once in a while!

Opinions are like bottoms, we all have one, and they usually stink.

Peace.

You aren't going to get very far demanding your money back on a car you've been driving for 5 years on the basis that the free servicing and breakdown cover is taking too long.

Over the last two years they've added the AE (2 years old tomorrow) and Praetoria. The art assets for those alone are significant. You can't determine the complexity of a program from the amount of space taken up by the data it uses.

Contrary to how a lot of people would like things to work you can't make a piece of software reliable by throwing more monkeys at it.

Yes it is annoying. No I'm not very happy about the number of glitches in this issue. Yes I do wonder just what the internal testing department actually does sometimes. But to claim the game today is worse than it was 5 years ago is pure nostalgia at best.
