12.6 Anyone??

Postby Jairyn » Wed Dec 01, 2004 6:00 pm

*nods* For those old enough to remember that fateful patch, it's happened again..

Today 15.7.1 was pushed to live servers, and with it, the game was brought to a shuddering halt.

Among the list of broken things:

Self Only perks can now be cast on Others.
Heal Aura Heal mobs as well
Evades do NOT work. At all.
Crat XP Buffs DECREASE the XP given instead of increasing
In game map doesn't center on your character at best. At worst it crashes your client.


Whee! Am I the only one that sees a rollback or 911 Patch in the next.. oh.. Few hours?

Ouch, that bad, looks like the new community manager gets started of with a big bang!

I'm still not sure why, but those devs will commit suicide before they do a rollback. I'm sure we'll see a fix-the-patch patch in the very near future.

In the meantime, if anyone would like to grief complain about FC's competence, please call me at work directly so I can have the satisfaction of hanging up on you while you whine.

12.6 :o The only patch in any game that ever helped me cancel my subscrip for a few months.


That's pretty wild though, they pushed a patch that actually has that nasty of a heal-aura bug? Oy. ;)

Tragic irony that this is the first big day of the new CR Director that replaced Cz.

You can bet that Cz ran away laaaaughing.

Bah! They'll probably end up re-patching during my show Thursday night. They always patch curing my show slots. It's like a curse.

Yes, I'm selfish. :P

Well that's because your show starts at dusk and runs continuously until you pass out at the keyboard and then picks back up again after Kira revives you with coffee drink goodness. So to be fair, you don't leave them much of a window. :)

ok, now this makes perfect sense.... I was wondering why my bio-cocoon did not work and I was handed my ass back to me on the silver platter garnished with little pieces of notium by critters I could dispatch with a relative ease while cocooned. :evil: Putting a bio-cocoon on a mortig is not a pleasant experience... Agrrr.... at least I did not team with the crat...
