yea funnty when its not your ass locked lol
Not even funny then...
This is just seriously bullshit on MA's part.
Ya know what, screw this. Marco, YOU NEED A GOD DAMNED PLAYER-BASED TESTING SERVER. Your tech department can't figure shit out when it comes to identifying the bugs that affect US.
I suggested that before, and was told "nope, it'd give the testers on there an unfair advantage!"...
Fine. Have it on a voluntary basis, and if they sign up for it, their accounts on the main EU server get locked until the patch comes out.
Or assemble a group of loyal customers (I'm sure a few might still be around... would have to look HARD now though, IMO!), and have them sign a NDA contract, and PUT THEM TO WORK testing in a 100~300 person private server implementing your companies patches.
Seriously, a 6 man operation working out of their BASEMENT releases better, less-buggy patches than you guys do. And you're supposed to have the big bucks, and the big hot-shot techs, while KIDS and people in their 30's, working on nearly minimum wage (for an IT position) do better jobs than you.
I would have expected, at one point or another, the bugs and problems to get LESS with each VU. But no, they just keep getting literally worse and worse. Some of us are getting rreeaallyy tired of repeating history over and over and over and over and over an... (-_-).
Allow me to summarize my statement again...
GET A TEST SERVER OPERATIONAL.
Thank you.
Oh and ps - Kygon, I hope everything gets handled well.. cuz if it doesn't, FPC is gonna get a shitstorm land on their doorstep from the community!
