if it is an oversight, the the quality control manager for the game needs to be let go - this is the third time this has happened - pure and utter incompetence is the only explanation.
While I won't go so far as to call for someone's job, it is supremely frustrating to have these constant occurrences of things that the devs issue 3/4 client restarts on a constant basis pop up at a minimum monthly, but it seems to be weekly.
Ditto. I can’t pretend I know anything about coding or other technical aspects of games but problems being repeated over and over and over again there’s something wrong somewhere.
I can, it's what I do - write code for web applications... They need a Product Owner who says "Hey, we're introducing X, where does X get used? What's the impact on each area?"
Frankly, if you add new ships, you need to say "We are adding ships. Ships are used in fleet arena, territory battles, platoons. Fleet Arena, no worries. These are dark side ships, so they can't be used in TB fights. The only true impact would be platoons - OK, what's the selection method for ID'ing what ships get used?"
Scenario 1: "Oh, it pulls from the whole pool? We can't have that until it's farmable... But it's an acceptable risk to not push back pushing these ships out." Probably the worst call in the atmosphere after BF2, and the recent QA issues this game has seen...
Scenario 2: "Ships are flagged as platoon eligible via metadata. We need to make sure the flags on the new FO ships are set to false." This clearly didn't get done, or the metadata doesn't exist.
Scenario 3: "KITTEN THEM ALL. If they want Phase 3 to be the same (and avoid a cascading effect through most of the phases), they have to buy at least 2 packs of each!" It would be a first, due to Vet Smuggler Han / Chewie not being in Platoons.
Everything points to a screw-up. However, the fact that they moved this thread rather than actually respond or do something to let people know what's going on... That's concerning, the tone-deafness.
