The funny thing about all this is that I've sent numerous e-mails to member services and through the Test bug report page, clearly stating that they shouldn't be rushing these updates out before patching most of the bugs it contained AND make it a "grind" not a "days worth" of content.

Did they listen to my many e-mails/reports?

Guess not, because this glitch still works:



=/

Do they care about us anymore?

Nope.

Are we trying and dedicated to locating these bugs and telling them to fix them before it hits live?

Yes.

Do they write letters and post them on the website for communication between playerbase and developers?

Not anymore. They don't get paid for that now.

Well now that the content is out, their aim became kind of obvious. That being releasing content before the break so people subscribe(hint: they posted the upgrade to UA on the Grog Blog). Right before holidays would be the best time to attract new players. Good strategy IF it only made veteran players as happy and encourage them to keep going for another full year or more.

I feel like the game veterans are being ignored though. And it is mainly people who have been playing for over a year that keep this games income going... I was paying for a test account only so i can test and help(don't have test on my main acct). I didn't have to but felt it was worth a try so for the past 5 months i payed a test account. Pretty soon, i wont subscribe that account again. Now i feel disappointed, not the first time but wont't end up with the same feeling when I can pretty much guess that they will do the same thing again. I too send many emails of bug reports and exposed bugs on video and on forums to help on bug reports. Seems like all was not worth. Wrote comments on their YT page to not rush it, etc. All was ignored because the bugs that were part of the game since years ago are still here. New bugs are here and the content did come 'premature'.

I'll admit, I made a slight mistake there. I would edit that out but it would complicate things. I understand that patience is not the issue here, but think of an update released on live - or in any game for that matter - that didn't have plenty of bugs. Even if the test update was bug-free (and it sounded like it was very close), there would still be bugs found.

All the bugs on live will be ironed out eventually. Ready for the next batch of bugs with the next update.
