    In a perfect world every update would go flawlessly, but the reality is that bugs get introduced; it's unavoidable. If the new content being introduced for free is as much of an expansion as it appears I'm willing to wait patiently for a fix.

    Really? I'm a professional developer and if I ever did such a mess while updating I will be fired in a minute. There is a thing called *testing*, you know?


    this guy has a brain and obviously uses it

    and idiots like him wonder why devs continue to pump out * games cause idiots like him are just fine with it

    as the other guy already said there is unforseen bugs even after testing something and then theres obviously no work put behind quality controling there content before its put in game and with how many bs things we get in this game im sure you can planely see which one is obviously being done here thus i and rightfully many others have every right to be pissed off

    this is also why i waited till the game was less then 30 or 35 for the special edition before i got this game again that way at least i didnt drop 60-70 bucks on an obviously constantly broken game that the devs arent doing * for they just throw in un tested buffs and nerfs and tell us to figure it out then they will fix it only to ruin something else in the process

  • Some of yall really need to chill. It's not the fact that they didn't test it because i'm sure they did but sometimes bugs/problems can roll around during updates. It's not like they won't fix it soon and if it's that bad for you then play something else until it's fixed

    My point was that when it comes to bugs, glitches and other problems in something as complex as an online multiplayer game there are going to be issues which you catch in your testing and then there are going to be issues which you won't catch because there an be a world of difference between what a company is doing during its testing and what tens of thousands of players will do once they have their hands on it.

    that would hold true IF we were talking about something like another wall glitch where someone can phase into it with a complex combination of stress forcing then there is the normal gameplay that even a tester would see just playing the game normally aka capturing zones in like 2 seconds by yourself  even popcap isnt this stupid (hopefully) if anything it just shows the lack of testing they actually do

    1 you forget that turf takeover is the most poplar of ALL the modes and at least on ps4 you dont have to pray that your time zone permits that youll actually find people to play with unlike modes like gardens and graveyards or any other multipleayer pvp mode that gets barely any traffic at least if they would make infinity mode have a multiplayer lobby to join then it would give me something else to play but nope apparintly making a system that has you pay 5 stars up front to join a team and refunds your 5 stars if you cant or dont wanna play solo is too complex for popcap

    2 we have every right to be pissed off the player base is sick of the bs me included i was sick of it since i first got this broken game during the whole lack of hit detection glitch that should have been fixed in a few days not months later

    and 3 thats no excuse even more so with popcap who takes weeks or even MONTHS to fix there freakin issues

    So aside from a few op characters what exactly was broken with the game? i've played the game since it came out and this hit detection bug was never a problem for me. There's also nothing wrong with playing a different game mode and it shouldn't be hard to find one if TT is broken right now. Not saying people don't have a right to complain over issues but it's not as bad to the point to where you need to insult the developers when they have been giving you all of this content for free.
    Again if aren't happy then go play something else, either another game or a different game mode instead of acting like a child over it because it'll more than likely be fixed tomorrow when the servers go into maintenance which makes the update live. Playing a different game mode won't kill you. Gnome bomb is really fun

    1 youd have a valid point if you actually bothered to not try and dismiss known issues like the hit detection bug that EVERYONE knew about you cant sit here and tell me that you did see your hit marker pop up but no damage splat appeared and no damage dealt to your opponent while they could still hit you in the middle of a gun fight

    2 giving * out for free is not an excuse to * up the rest of there game and be ok with taking there jolly sweet time in fixing it

    3 the server maintenance was today unless it got rescedualed

    and 4 demanding that the devs fix there damn game is not being a baby its called expecting more out of a known company even more so with how well there first game ran sure there was still balance issues but not as bad as in this game with level design and characters so yes my *ing is justified kiddo not that youd understand cause youre too busy playing suck up

    I think no one knows better than me knows how developing, testing and deploying works.

    I'm not insulting anyone, but ignoring the problem is childish. They finished the maintenance about an hour before announced. There was enough time to live test and ROLLBACK changes if necessary (and possible).

    Not possible? Close the TT game mode, a better solution instead of getting hundreds of angry players complaining.

    More interesting is the nature of the bugs introduced. Timers screwed, character stats screwed. Those are not unpredictable bugs.
