Update on Patch issues

[Mr. White]

Here's the available information we have at this point:

The devs have identified the problems and are working on fixing them. The bank bag bug is a new one so it might take a few hours to properly fix and test. It's quite possible that we'll have to wait until maintenance tomorrow for a new patch but the effort is to get this done within the day.

Update: We tried but it's getting too late to put the fixes in so the plan is tomorrow during scheduled maintenance. Sorry guys

[DocMartin]

Is there any actions being taken against those players who are using the bug to gain advantages?

When people are out killing monsters and dropping the loot safely into their bank from the spawn area, I don't think that's the "safe-mode" that was intended for this game.

[fitzbean]

It's a bug, relax, what does it matter, they are working to fix it.

Seriously, why? The important things is them fixing it.

[Keno]

Sounds good, shit happens. Thanks for the update!

[Shiva_Firewing]

- Linking items in clan can be faked
- Cooldown on Healmount NOT lowered.

..... a new bug? ... that acts EXACTLY like the old bug?

Come on, let's drop the dance.

Just fix it, don't make excuses ;)

You do realize that 2 different lines of code can have the same outcome right?

Wait, you're telling us that they stil don't have fixed this on the server side ? Are they fucking kidding us ?
They can have all the bank bugs they want on the client, I almost don't care : if the server is not a huge hole, it won't accept the object transfer.

But, if they don't fix it on the server, even without bugged client, there's a part of the player who will use the server bug : the script kiddies. They just have to get some hack to do that.

They should keep this one it has made villages much more interesting the last few days. Very active pvp spots. :D

i log in the MOMENT village is vulnerable. someone starts a bindstone recall to to it - i use a bow and i'm done with the village BEFORE HE GETS THERe.

thats a bug.

[Morrolan]

I agree actually, I think village caps should be damageable by just about anything. Right now even solo players can cap villages because of elemental bows.

[Kasmos]

Two posts.... on the same day.... about patch issues?

WHA WHA WHAT????

I think Tasos and company got kidnapped by aliens.... these can't be the same people!

[Greywind]

Is there a hope of public test server?

Obviously there is a need and it is industry standard de-facto

[AshesRelandi]

You do realize the chances of that outcome are astronomical, right?

It is technically considered an exploit at the moment, and if caught doing it, you will be treated accordingly. That's about all I can offer on the subject.

So, ignore what the GM's tell us.

Got it!

Won't let me edit.


Also, what is the best way to turn people in for using it? fraps?

[KOS allgriefers]

What about loot windows for mobs not persisitng, the diving bar when using vitality title is still there among other bugs.

[Deviruchi]

well another day that i wont pvp.

It has no repercussions any further than the moment they fix it... that would be wasting time trying to figure out who used it... it's not a big deal imho.

Before you say it, i didn't use it, i haven't even played yet today, i don't know if i will; and i've never used a single exploit in my whole life. I even have a ton of ravenous i looted from players stocked in my bank which i don't want to use cos i don't like winning that way.

Just before all the rage and stuff...

I believe darkfall handles a lot of things client-side so it can run smooth. This is just an idea i have based on what i've heard though, no proof or anything.

[Mezmorized]

seriously im surprised that someone said im sorry after the patch didnt go smoothly...:eek:

all these updates and information all at once I cant handle it yo....

[hengle]

go upstairs and tell your mother on him. she'll handle it.

[Dunmer]

:eek:

I was equally shocked.

[canenot]

Np now you know the problem and its going to be fixed, thank, and grats for coming out of the comma you where in for the last few weeks.

dont let the forum people get to ya, we have no lives or any thing to live for but to play df and thats all we see and want, other than a can of beer now and then.

[spool]

Wow, they apologised.

[Nathantxk]

this bug is driving me just as crazy as about anyone, I have thousands of items in my bank and I open up the bags i spent tons of time on organizing and everything is jumbled up, I go to close the bank I have 10 bank windows in my face. I don't even feel like playing the game until this is fixed. thanks for making me ocd lol.... all said in a manner of humor of course.
FIIIIX PLZZZ

take the bag from bank then re put it back in bank.
it has solved my bank bug

[OpMindcrime]

Goddammit, if you guys keep this sh*t up, I might re-sub.....
When did we enter the Twilight Zone?!?

[Dirtydisco]

Its funy, I installed windows 7 yesteryday, and reinstalled Darkfall, kinda hoping either that or the patch would fix my bank messing up all the time.

I had to log in 3 or 4 times i think, bankwould crap out worse than ever, bags wouldnt open at all.

Then i tried the old trick of moving all the shit to my inventory, rearranged it all again, and BAM clean bank ever since. a few items is still sticking, but all bags now work, and items stay in place for the most :).

very wierd bug indeed.

[Majorleague]

wow, even though this patch was a failure in terms of fixing the bugs i don't really care.
thanks for the info Mr. White. it's all we ever wanted :)

i'm sure AV will fix it soon... i hope :ohno:

It's all these new green people constantly pestering them for answers and interrupting their coding ;)

Seriously though, I expect it'll improve, it seems to be moving in the right direction.
