In a couple weeks then you can say this game is broken if stuff doesnt work right. Even then everyone and their mother knows mmo launches and hurricanes.
Launch is only about 20 days away. The "beta" excuse doesn't work that well at this point as we've seen these problems appear consistently after many betas. Especially since this is the last major stress test before launch.
They give stress-testers old builds.
What do you think "stress" means? We are supposed to break it.
As I stated in another post, you guys said that last time. Last time it was. You guys are running .7x and we're running .81 on the PTS and it's fine. Now we're running at least .81 and looks to be .94 and we have the same bugs and some new ones.
It's funny cause when I see streams of PTS I see them like never run into bugs.
I think the majority just don't how to quest properly and just call it a bug.
Proof of this is Kinearths Roost, only quest bugged atm is the Green spirit quest, but as I made another toon and went to that island all I see in zone chat is multiple people asking if X quest is bugged, like quest I have done at least 3 times this beta, so I know it isn't.
Don't know what you're seeing, but what we're seeing is missing NPCs. For the fighters guild I'm suppose to help Alief kill some Daedric, they never spawn, she's been standing there all day. I'm was suppose to kill Blanco? I never saw him spawn until about 2 hours ago (I got the quest yesterday). Daughters of Giants, I get her the Battleaxe, she walks up and says "I won't let some pebbles stand in my way", She swings, nothing happens. I logged in and out 4-5 times, even restarted the quest, she never clears the rocks. Priestess we're suppose defend while she does some ritual, she never shows up. Frog race apparently never starts,. The green lady *still* disappears and doesn't leave a trail for you to follow, but folks are helping get people to the house.
Like I stated, some appear to be stress related, I went back and got half of the stuck ones complete. Still can't get Daughters of the Giant to finish. Probably more annoying is just the user interface bugs, But those are little more workable
The game comes out in 2 weeks. It's safe to say this beta event is a demo...
I noticed this to with the last beta round I was in we have a job people find ways using whats in the game to utterly break and ruin anything we can so it can be fixed and made better. this is trial by fire not a vacation.
You guys are running 0.18, while PTS is running 0.181. Not much has changed in terms of bug-fixing between the two.
We are running 1.94 I believe. And a lot of the bugs are directly due to the increased stress on the servers.
