groups

I would hope they would as we have had a lot of missing items, and game problems with this event.

 

please fix it.....we cant invite we cant see list friend and list guild from tegan sever

 

So it's not just the Heredur server that's affected? I wonder what caused this all of a sudden...

 

Dear support...
I really hope that this mess will be sorted out before the mini event starts in aout 11 hours. ALthough i cannot be confident but please i would be very happy if tech did sort it out. Can i suggest that you look at what you actually did at xmas i believe there was the same prblem then too.

If all failed (as i have invested a high amount of my time into this game over the past few weeks) i was hoping you could give me so buff /tutorial on how to solo the event. As that seems to be the way this is heading, on tegan i think there is only probably 30-40 ppl who can solo it mostly DK. ANy assistance will be greatly appreciated

thank you
Mark

 

Their messy multiple inheritance code. This system is decades old, that is why we see bugs that are not releated to the hotfixes they deploy. If they used component-based system, we wouldnt see so much bugs with each patch.
There is no way to reduce the upcoming bugs, in fact they will get more and more with each added class, the only solution is to rewrite the whole game to a component-based system, which they wont.
The game will start slowly dying in a year or so, its sad becouse I'm a player in their game.

Longer tests and actual stress tests can hold the multiple inheritance system in place, without having to rewrite the game to a new system.
As we see, no one actually test the patches ! Heck I'm offering my testing capabilities for free, only if I have direct comunication with the developers !

 

I'm sorry, but if you want to address messages to the Support Team, send a ticket. We can't offer you any direct help on the forums.

Yeah, there's a lot they need to fix, and we'd be fools to think they will solve everything . We can but hope...

 

Well, I'm offering my 3D and 2D graphic skills, plus web-programming skills for free if that helps improve the game, but I doubt they want to get away from the status quo.

 

It's just been announced that the 4th mini-event has started. But it doesn't show on my screen.

But that is the least of the problems. Everyone's friends and guild lists have been removed again.
without these very few will be able to complete the mini anyway.

I've reported this to support.

At the moment I'm not a happy Customer

 

Omg the game is so broken just before the last minievent.

FAQ says it starts at 4pm CET. (GMT+2)
Why not like every other @ 12, but nvm...

Why is there this huge group and guild bug and ofc everybody is on weekend drinking german beer?

And by Monday event is over and then support says: "Oh we are so sorry you couldn't play normally. We have no information on compensation. But new event is coming on 28th. Play that."

 

Apparently the issue has been fixed for now.Lets hope they dont return.

 

No it is not fixed on Grimmag.

 

Yeah, we should assemble a squad and go to their HQ in Germany and take over the company .

4th challenge is not showing for me either.

My friends' list and guild are back, and groups + invitations are working again (Heredur server).

 

Seems like they fixed it on Heredur and Tegan ... but not on Grimmag.
And I will continue to spam their stupid FB.

 

I really don't know what to say about all this mess... This has happened before in the past. Thank God, nothing was lost.

This bug is severe and simply can't continue emerging! It destroys the game and I'm afraid that players will start leaving. You just can't have the content update on the one hand and this bug on the other!

And the fact that we have people here, that are willing to assist for free, it is just Awesome!

But I am afraid that BigPoint won't really care at all, unfortunately.

 

Please do! They deserve it xD (even more so since, at first I thought it was only Heredur, then found Tegan was also affected... now Grimmag too... so very silly, to put it mildly).

+1 to this.

 

Honestly I do not see people putting money and time into a game to leave over a small glitch. I can see it upsetting people and I would be upset also. What it would take to have people leave the game is a drastic change. A bug is fixable where as a drastic change is more than likely not.

 

Wrong Mega ...... people are tired of all the BS. And many I used to play with have already left/quit playing. Even after years of dedicated playing. There are many new games out or on verge of coming out..... myself looking closely at a 2 of them. If they live up to expectations, I wouldnt have a problem trashing DSO... even after 3+ years of playing and and buying premium... it gets to a point where it just isnt worth it any more. This is by far, not my first MMO, and will not be my last.

Everyone will leave DSO at some point... thats just how these games work. Can you see yourself still playing DSO in a year? 2 years? 5 years?... If i had to guess, i would say no.
Most of the power players that were here when I started are gone... mostly because the devs kept changing things, and in the players eyes, making them worse.

Its just the way things are.....

Thanks, Doc.

 

One bug won't make you quit. More bugs may not either. But as they pile up, as opposed to solutions, one can start to get fed up...

 

How are what we both said so different.

The group bug is fixed and since I know how games do the back end of thing can understand how these go wrong. It might not be truly a bug but a server connection error. For me a bug is something wrong in the code; where as a server connection could come from a hardware change or firewall update and yes from an error in the code. Respectable gaming companies (like BigPoint) do compensate for downtime. I would venture that I have seen games with bugs and they fix them. Even if they cause players to not have the best play time there is only a word "It's fixed" released. This group bug does effect game play and I am sure as with in the past, there will be a compensation for it.

 

Another respectable company (I won't bother naming it since it will be censored like the F word - what's that about??) did a HELL of a lot more because players were stuck in a queue when they released a patch.

And they didn't wait for any Twitch session or something like that. And they didn't edit a post and made it official. And they had a dude to press a button to reset a server. And they didn't screw up the compensation.

So please.. you and everyone else.. spare us the poems. If you respect yourself as a game developing company, you strive to do things better.. not release something with a WELL KNOWN bug that's been around for 3 years.. or some issue that happened 30 DAYS AGO.

Please, stop. This was and is amateurish. That's all. I accept the deletion of this post and the BAN that will accompany it.
