Abulurd Boniface Gallente Mercantile Exchange for Mining And Exploration	Posted - 2009.07.02 09:34:00 - [1] Edited by: Abulurd Boniface on 02/07/2009 09:35:47 Originally by: Allahs Warrior Right now, we have a pretty diverse game. New features are NOT something we need. What we need are all the major bugs to be fixed. My List of major bugs (feel free to add on): Probing problems, well documented on the forums Selected Item failing to refresh unless you click on it again. Freezing at session change while still being vulnerable and logged on Light Electron Blaster II still has no model (aesthetic but really annoying!) lag in FW Streamline server User Interface bugs (too many to list) All the crazy things that happens during lag (some mods dont work while others do, Ghost ships, you warp out, 3 years later you die and your wreck is 11 AU from whoever shot you) Doomsdays, while some consider it OP, should ALWAYS work, so fix the "oops it was a little laggy so my DD didnt work" bug Overview ghosts and double-overview entries You obviously have only a shallow understanding of the process of software development in a commercial environment. It just doesn't work that way. CCP states that they spend 50% of their time on bug fixes and 50% of their time on new features. They can't keep bug fixing. Why? Because they can't do this because it is just too expensive and takes too much time. I want the software to work well, obviously, but I also want new features that add to the richness of the gaming environment. If CCP went through the exercise of fixing every bug that was worth fixing, you wouldn't get any new content for years. Plus, from a developer point of view, bug fixing isn't exactly the most exciting part of the job. CCP are doing it right, or as good as can be expected. They continually iron out bugs, they continually add new features [yay 1.5 update!]. I'm a happy customer and as long as the client doesn't crash hard or a bug renders the environment simply unworkable, I shrug at the occasional bug and be done with it. All the problems you mention are real and no doubt annoying, but if you know that they're there you have to work around the problems and learn to live with them until such time as they're fixed. There is no use getting worked up over it. When you're done ranting the bug is still there and you spent some time of your life being needlessly unhappy. Instead, you could be zipping around in space working towards universal dominance. I know I am.
