Discussion: Updating Status of Live Issues - 11/14/2011

I am totally overjoyed that those issues are being fixed. Truly, dancing for joy. That is, until I remember that most of those same issues were FOUND IN BETA AND REPORTED. Yet, the excrement that was the patch, still went Live.
I will also say it again..not everyone READS the patch notes, so finally having a pop up saying "yo guys, those bases are maaad, ya dig it?" is super cool and helpful, just NOT SO helpful 5 days AFTER they became taken over by malignant spirits.
And to quote the pop up..

'The issue affecting their behavior has not yet been resolved and now affects either type of base'

Yay, equality in bugs! AT LAST! Just an idea, since the problem clearly is SO hard to find (obviously so hard to fix they had to leave it in when the bug riddled patch went Live) how about you just alter ALL bases to disable defences?

I am trying, I really am. I like the shiny new incarnate powers, but that warm fuzzy glow just vanishes when I go into my base and get attacked.

Still want fix for glitch in the crunching of wings in beast and ninja run! And the option to have wings spread out/open or closed!!!

Jesus, what the crap is going on? This last patch, which may or may not be I21.5, is amazingly awful. How did this even get pushed Live? Is someone just asleep?

You know it would be smarter to simply roll back the existing patch instead of rushing out broken bugged content.

Now if they could only fix the niggling little Stipend Bug

It's 106 miles to Grandville, we got a full tank of gas, half a pack of cigarettes, it's dark and we're wearing faceless helmets

... Hit it ...

So updated both my computers, tried to log into the game on my desktop, got this weird message "you must fill out the account and password fields to log in to your account" and Im like WTF? THEY ARE FILLED OUT (or "in" as I like to say). OK so my desktop is old and curmudgeonly so I moved to my brand-spanking new super duper laptop.....and got the SAME MF'ing message!!! WHAT IS THIS ****? Seriously, been a paying player since september 2005 and this game, mechanically is going to ****. Bad enough I dont have my most recent yearly "vet" badge but now, day off and I cant even log into the f'in game?!?!?!?

So Z, How long tell the damage bugs, armor bugs, and drop bugs get fixed? You know the bugs that started many patches ago!

I mean, I love going into missions with my level 50(+3), fully IO'ed tank and get my *** handed to me by a level 50 minion, because its like I have not armor. Or to beat on a bad guy until I am out of endurance and only have every other hit actually count toward his hit points. You know the "not breaking the game" bugs that you wont even acknowledge that there are.

Now you guys have done some great stuff over the last few years. But your "Full Speed Ahead and never look back," needs to STOP! Or you need to totally redo your systems from how you recieve bug reports to how you test and go live with patches and Issues. Very Piss Poor management skills are being shown by your Co. and I thought it was just Statesman... No, not giving any credit to Jack, Just pointing out that he may have some kind of disease that can be transferred. You all might want to get some blood tests.

All I can say about the whole implementation of patches and new features and were you have decided to take the business model is:

Must fight urge to go to California and line up dev staff, take 5 steps back, raise hand to head level and start running at them screaming "HEY MOE!!!!"
/em KERSMACK

Would rather do this to Tech Support but don't want to break my hand on the Granite.

P.S. Meant half halfheartedly, but not really!

Wow Devs, this time you really fracked up big time.
Each and every one of my toons using Street Justice or Beam Rifle is locked, giving me a prompt that I don´t own these sets... asking if I´d like to purchase them from the shop.
SRSLY?!
I really hope you have a plan how to fix that crap! And better quick!! Like... NOW!!!!
The UI bug and small stuff like the costume creator being borked, I can live with that... but locking my toons (worse, removing stuff from my account I paid for) is not OK. Way not OK!!

Btw, a little suggestion:
If something´s not ready, don´t fracking publish it. Wait till it´s finished.

@Redcap

i reported this bug last week.

Also playing on my wifes Macbook the lag since the update is horrendous.. I cant even move..

At this point would it be so wrong for us to say "Stop pushing out new content until the majority of existing bugs and problems are fixed?"

I love CoX as much as the next guy, but the game's been seeing more and more problems of late and it hardly seems like they're going to be fixed in the rush for more content.
