Will we get an option to turn off the ?/! cartoons over our head? If not, is there an ETA on this.

Do the known issues include the rare encounter of Jana, the barmaid in Tangleroot Gorge? When she is there I can talk to her, she answers but does not register as being encountered - I get no XP for meeting her and I am still needing this rare to complete the wilderness.

That would fall under

Oh good. I'm glad you know what all the known issues are and that it includes Jana. Thank you

You say the mistake was on 32 bit, why you stop the game on 64 bit. You should explain this carefully!!

When will devs provide refunds to players that paid Astral Shards for rerolling chests in Legendary Droaam between release and hotfix?

Rhetorical; we all know the answer.

[Gordo]

How dare any of you not take moar of your own time and effort to test these updates so that bugs could be found in advance?
Here you selflessly perform an unpaid and unheralded service on behalf of all of us and yet you still let this hotfix occur?

How much less than nothing can you be paid so that this doesn't happen again?

This is actually a very fair point. I reroll every chest as a means of quest time management (and a limit to my own patience). The item drop was 1 for 60+ rolls.
If there was a bug, they do owe a refund of shards.
I also expect a winning lottery ticket today so there's that.

I win every time I play the lottery: fact. Every. Time.

Also, there is no lag in DDO: fact.

May the odds be ever in your favor.

From now on, as a matter of course, I'm going to delay expending shards or TRing for at least a few days after an update comes out.

I'm going to make sure something major isn't broken before I expend any money or a significant amount of time on DDO.

Um, not to call you out, but this has been standard practice for the last couple of years.

Look at it as a couple of days away from the game where you can read on the forums the horrors the players are going through.

Just so you know, the 64 bit is still broken as I still can not transition any where without getting kicked to desktop but on the the 32 bit I can transition. My computer is Windows 10 with 16 gig RAM and is a 64 bit operating system and I have SSD.

I was excited to see I needed to update! Tried to log in. FAILED. Switched back to 32bit, because science. It worked. I was able to log in again. This laptop is a 64bit...I don't know why 64 isn't working for me.

Maybe for you it has, but by the looks of some of the posts in this thread and others, it's not SOP for everyone.

It should be, though.
