Patch Friday the 25th

[Thraiax]

Just a quick update for you.

We’re patching today during the scheduled downtime. The new patch addresses the issues created by yesterday’s updates. ETA is in two hours.

We appreciate your feedback on yesterday’s patch, it helped the developers locate and recreate the problems you reported to us. Thanks for your help and patience.

[XeoStyle]

Didnt you guys just post that you will postpone the patch till 2morrow? ..

Is this patch fixing something else then?

That was yesterday.

Lol.

[Daarco]

I cant keep up with all the updates...too much:lmao:

[Jeronimoo]

I fuckin love all this communication, go go AV

[alessiora]

I fuckin love all this communication, go go AV

This :D.

[Friagrim]

They said theyd hope to have it fixed yesterday, then said tomorrow as in today right now. Glad it actually came through that way anyway.

[Chaokel]

Man awesome, keep thinking i'm dreaming and i'm going to wake up and realise there was no real communication.. this is sweet, even simple messages like this are enough to keep me happy in the knowledge that cogs are churning and shit is happening, things being fixed ect..

[spool]

Ahh nice to know, cheers.

<3 this forum section.

[droidika]

ETA was 3 Hours due to ingame msg. (1 Hour extra just to make sure it´s done correctly maybe?)

Else keep up the good communication its amazing! ;)

[Elmi]

Wondering how long till that level of communication becomes "not enough!" for GD trolls.

[Perestroika666]

a patch to fix the patch that was meant to patch the patch but instead made it even worse :bang:

on a side note why do mounts keep getting more and more nerfed :bang:

[Nathero]

im falling in love with AV:sly:

[forestchild]

But mount nerf as you call it is equal to whole player base i dont see any problem there?

[Friagrim]

Wondering how long till that level of communication becomes "not enough!" for GD trolls.

Aside from a live video feed what else could anyone want? This forum so far has far surpassed I think anyones imagination. All this info makes me feel so... informed... which makes urge to kill fall...

Seriously, best move AV has ever made. Again can't say enough how impressed I am that theyd do this. It makes it all feel so much more legit when we arent ignored..

[Tribaja]

They're fixing the bank bug. (Again).

[Elmi]

Aside from a live video feed what else could anyone want?

Well, for example: there are already people bitching about patch notes being published AFTER patch, instead of BEFORE :D

[Friagrim]

They're fixing the bank bug. (Again).

Hopefully mounts in the ocean, acid bow damage, sit/stand rigor exploit, and 1 or 2 more that existed or were created by the patch :P. The bank bag bug is getting annoying tho. Hope this is the end of that.

Vanguard, like DF was a great game. I say was, because it died an ugly death due to all the hackers and bugs. The population rapidly dwindled. It would be a shame to have this happen with DF, as it too is a great game.

In DF favor is the fact that the devs listen. However, there continues to be so many people hacking and so many bugs that the frustration level is getting to be too high and there are already major guilds that recently left to play Aion.

I understand the policy of hackers/cheaters is that you have to be 100% certain, however, when you have rather brazen people posting their screenshots in the forum, and IN the screen shots are the hack progams they are running, and those people are STILL in the game, I'm not certain how you reach the 100% mark of certain. Additionally, there have been hundreds of reports sent in on the same people, and yet, those same people are still in game. At the end of the day, what you keep in subscriptions isn't worth the game dying. I for one would love to see legal action taken on those websites that sell those programs.

So, I guess my suggestion would be to focus on getting all the bugs out of this game and getting rid of the cheaters before you plan some huge expansion as you won't have any players left to even explore the new expansion. History does repeat itself, and Vanguard (along with numerous others) has provided the history for you.

Green men should tell us when we may see EU transfers to NA :D.... ok Ill stop getting carried away now lol

IS THERE ANYTHING THESE LITTLE GREEN MEN CAN'T DO!?!?! Dear lord.... I've been wondering when we'd hear something. I was beginning to think itd just disappear and they'd be like "uuuh transfers? what transfers? as intended!!!"

Feedback:

As requested, after yesterdays patch I still had the same bank problems. Possibly worse. Bags stacks on top of each-other, refuse to open or stays open permanently.

And I take poison damage ~25% of the times I sit down to rest, even when I am naked. :ohno:

Elemental weapon equipped? It can kill you, took a while, but it did.

[Abremalist]

No as I mentioned, I was naked. I usually have Skull maces, but this time I was recently killed and naked.

Sat down to rest. Took acid damage.

[NinjaOptix]

Thanks for the infos!
keep it flowing :D

This is really really good!

[Sarphus]

I think the addition of community liaison was one of the best PR moves DF has made to date.

I certainly really appreciate it.

[Friagrim]

Besides my heros. Finally

Rearranging bank once in a while isn't THAT waste of a time :D At least i've found some valuable stuff i forgot about.

[Shiva_Firewing]

Hackers I can deal with. I have only ran into a couple that I was 100% sure was hacking and I have played since Beta.

Bugs I can deal with, its going to happen in any game and the bigger and more code intensive the game, the more bugs you will have.

What I cant deal with is the balance issues and poor decision making going on. By that I am talking about magic and putting the game on easy mode for everyone.

100% agreed.

acid bow is still bugged, i proc hits for 46+46. i'm told the bugged procs will still damage village stones, but they're like 1 in 20 so it's a little bit faster to use a siege hammer

[blob]

100% agreed.

100% agreed , we need aiming skills not grinding skills

[Caaahl]

and its not even only every 20th or so shot... i got killed by 2 x 2 x 46 hits in a row = 184 dmg with 2 shots.... (no, i dont have only 184 HP, but thats what was left before this 2 uba shots in a row...)

This really sucks and i ask:

Will we see fixes for that asap or will the next patch be the october expansion?
