This is going out of control, then umber of reported bugs and impulse problems are going through the roof, im having a hard time keeping track of all the topics with REPORTED problems, rememeber that only a small amount of the customers actually post in this forum
1.1 is a great update, brings many new features, but theres to many problems, the so called patches, mostly bring more problems then they solve, especially 1.1 i haven't seen any major gameplay bug other then the vulkoras's sige ability being fixed and even more problems have shown up after 1.1's release
Dev's what have you been up to?
some statements i've already encounterd
"I think the number of bugs that have shown up in the game and the dumb multiplayer port forward rubbish is inexcusable" "then 'patches' that have more errors than ever"
"I think it has virtually killed the online community that first started from that game - clans etc have all almost vanished as a result of poor development and problem resolution"
"they have no excuse for all of the problems that game has"
and then Impulse... theirs so much trouble involved with it, people cannot get it to work properly, and im starting to wonder how much extra effort is being placed into making impulse finally work smoothly rather then just releasing standalone patches
what exactly do peopel consider to be "fast download" i have multiple ways to aquire standalone patches with over 400 kb/s of download speed, strangly impulse took me some serious time to download (over an hour, including connection problems) and instead of saving me alot of time i actually had to spend extra time just to get it downloading, then waiting til the download is done. you cannot ignore the large amount of issues that are being reported.
now about people without internet connection, i've seen topics ending with "a solution is being worked on" ... is it? i have had to actually visit a relative and 2 friends carrying a flashdrive with my gamedata copied on it just so they could play the patch, and you can be sure alot of people arent that lucky to have people driving by with a flashdrive, yes ofcourse they could go to a connected place , use a latop with impulse on it, download the patch (if theres no issues) then go home again, place impulse on your gaming machine and install from there
is so much effort really neccesary??, i've been confronted with an answer something like "1.1 patch is free so your not forced to have it" is it now? at first i thought it being a sick asnwer, ofcourse someone that buys a game wants the full bug-fixes etc. but afterwards ima stick with the answer, im totaly giving saying your right... 1.1 is so buggy, let's return to 1.05.....
rly people, i think someone owes us an explenation, the online community has already gone through the drain, my clan doesnt even bother logging on anymore becuase of these troubles, and i dont see any other community on anymore, every now an then a lonely character with clan insignia;s but thats it doesnt that alteast give a message?
EDIT:
i'm sorry, answer has not been answerd and you really have no right to close this down, if you wanted to aboid suspection you shouldve asked another dev, but closing this down yourself makes me think frog, are you annoyed me critizing your work?
well to bad for you, this is a technical problem, and were not happy, fix it ans start wasting time hunting topics u want to close and accusing people of piracy witohut proof
