Between hotfixes, part of the social bar broke again. So while attempting to improve things for the update on EN, things didn't go as planned.

So your agreeing that changes were made without testing first. So they did act in an unprofessional manner just throwing it out there onto the live servers and hoping for the best without any thought or consideration to the playing community.

Except the hotfixes were done precisely due to the playing community. It is of course highly unfortunate that one of them reintroduced this issue and we hope that is resolved soon.

I'm a little confused. If a hotfix was released in order to fix something then shouldn't that hotfix be subject to testing also?

and the bad part of all this is that they were well aware of the problem because it was on the ZZ server first.
The beta forum jumped into action to tell them about the problem and begged them not to release the bug to the game servers but as you can see their lack of respect for the players forum posts comes shining through brilliantly once again and they sent out the hotfix with the errors in it anyway.

So, they are now fixing the hot-fix??

Isn't that sorta like redoing a vasectomy?
" Oops. Well I guess, hehheh, that didn't work so lets try this."

Are you doing the patient a favor?

Hotfix A fixes issue A.
Hotfix B fixes issue B. Unfortunately reintroduces issue A.

While testing is done, it is quite possible for something to slip, especially when the issue appears at a section of the game not related to the hotfix. A hotfix implies that the goal is to release the fix sooner rather than later, so testing the game as a whole is not always possible.

This is why CM team cannot be trusted. They just skate around the issue rather than just admitting what we all know that this problem with the social bar should never have occurred and only did because the developers have no respect for the playing community and just use live servers to test their poor workmanship.

Darkstar will continue to huff and puff trying not to admit it but it won't change what we have all seen and experienced. All it does is reduce the credibility of the CM team even further. Remember these are the same people we have to trust to enforce the rules and apply bans. Certainly raises doubts for me when I see these responses from them trying to avoid culpability.

I see the issue with friends list aiding is still not fixed... and there was a message about a sale on diamonds.

Was this a vague ransom demand from devs to get the fix done?

lol

Why do I get that feeling that all the good devs left the building taking
the boss along....And the poor Monitors have to think up excuses!!:rolleyes:

Something seems to "slip up" every patch since 1.52. It's becoming a common thing now.

Last time I complained about this same bug for longer then a month. How long will it take this time to fix?

Oh and why if this same bug happens on Beta (this is not the 1st time either) why push it to the main servers regardless? And then later try to pretend it "just slipped up", yea right.

This game is more and more about leveling GB's and just logon collect, donate goods and maybe aid here and there and that's about it. And now we cant even aid properly anymore.

I find it unbelievable that with the announcement of new update on social bar all you can come up with is giving us old bugs back.....
This bug we have had many times already, but you do not seem to be able to fix it....
