End of the week with Major Malphunktion

[Bronko]

Thank you MM. Enjoy your pint and we hope to hear more from you again soon.

[Cauthey]

Thank you, thank you, THANK YOU. I may just have to buy some TPs so that the next pint can be on me.

Your transparency and openness is SO WELCOME!! Yark!!

[samthedagger]

This is great feedback and I'm glad to hear it. Thanks, devs!

[Asmodeus451]

in case it has not been mentioned already:

something like this, a "what we are working on" post, at the end of every week (or even every month!) would be a HUGE step forward for player/dev relations

please start doing this!!!!!

one of the biggest complaints we players have is a lack of communication.

we assume you arent doing/noticing things because you dont tell us you are

[patang01]

So there's a discussion about VIP and Artificer and I'm one of those dumb@sses that had to buy it.

Thanks for the feedback. I like that. I rather hear from QA what's going on than speculate about the silence. I've noticed just how messed up the repeater is at times. One of these days that'll get fixed.

Amazing communication. It's great to get this sort of front page notice on hot topics. I'm a bit saddened to see no mention of crafted wraps, though I'm sure (hoping) that's something that is being worked on.

[danotmano1998]

outstanding !!!

+1 to everybody.. Group hugs are in order.


Thank you, thank you..
I don't care about all the nitty gritty details.. I just wanted to know you guys are listening and at least discussing things, trying to work with the community.

One more: Crystal cove will break Bravery streaks!! Sucks I know...but think of the loot....Major Malphunktion

Non-Issue the Good Loot is at lvl25 so the 20's don't care they are Xp CAPPed

[Smitey]

what does that mean? no more bravery on ANY quests for 2 weeks?

no just that the streak you have in effect on a character will end if you enter the cove.

[FooWonk]

The post was excellent until...

Go Pats!

[FrozenNova]

Glorious.
While I'm here..

- Blue dots on map don't show player name when you mouse over them. No more "Come to my dot" instructions, or even being able to see who's in quest or not from map.
Many map note issues, all are being squashed for U12

Reckon we could get some form of reference as to what dot aims at what party member without having to chasing a moving dot to mouseover it? Colour coded, numbered, or symboled dots, for example?

Also - can we get the highlight effect applied to the dots of group members we select?

[Alavatar]

With all of this awesome and great communication any chance for the Weekly Development Thread to be re-started?

[Produktion_Malphunktion]

I would request some additional clarification on this one. Do you mean that an internal change on your test server to fix this was in that version for 18 months which implies that you are not testing out issues with the same version as is on live? I am fairly confused by this statement...

Nope it has been on live for all this time. Mostly with moving targets, or the player moving.

[DeadRabbat]

Great job guys on the report & the work.

I believe i reported this as a bug. Not sure since first time... but when in the manufactuary(sp?) and useing smiting weapons (wraps), the constructs turn green & go as is WAI but the WF do not & just blink out. it's really odd.
Thanks for the work guys.

[Produktion_Malphunktion]

this.

[hit_fido]

Gigantic thumbs up. Thanks!

[Cyr]

So the fix got messed up somehow in U11? I'm still confused as to why you guys could not see it in house unless you are not testing using the same version as is on live. Basically you have just fixed the fix that somehow got broken so behavior should revert to pre-U11 right?

[Feralthyrtiaq]

All this time I thought the AI was winning "Initiative" rolls for the mobs and their " Move Action" placed them out of spell and melee range even though they are right in front of me (while moving somewhere else).

It'd be nice to trip/stun em as they are running by me toward the AAs and Casters again

[der_kluge]

A question -

I don't expect an answer, but a "simplified" explanation would be greatly appreciated.


What, on earth, do fast-moving tiles in Delirium have to do with anything else? Can you explain why U11 changes would affect puzzle tiles? That doesn't make any sense to me.

They are saying that they experienced non-registering attacks from moving players/targets for over a year and that we've only just noticed it...
