Hey there Devs!
I just got on the Forums because I got a personal email. Yep, personal. To me. My friend asked me to explain coding because how he understands it that an improved matchmaking system should work Exactly Freaking Backwards. I agree.
Let your hacks* contact me. I can teach them the basics. I am also really good at QA and making sure that QA doesn't just kiss the boss's ***** and not actually do their job.
Admittedly I am retired and am no longer burning with the desire to code for 12 hours a day for weeks on end. But I can teach others to How To Test A Conditional.
If (conditional) then {statement} else {statement}
Simple really. Except for hiding everything inside of C++ objects. 
All of which means, I guess you aren't going to fix small turrets, large turrets or my skills not actually modifying the damage as advertised anytime soon. Not like I was holding my breath.
If you do reply, please be patient. I will put your request ... in a Queue!
* To non-programmers, hackers are many things but they are not hacks. hacks are one thing and they are not coders, programm |

Since you keep people from joining current running games its hard to fill in those spots where players can have a full fledge 16 mercs vs 16 mercs. Read that, no need to quote from the Known Issues With A Bad Patch post.

And yet, the event hasn't actually started?  You Merc are out of date. Check the updated event information.
It started at GMT 1130 3 Sept as CCP/Shanghai realized that yes indeedy the best solution was not to play until Friday.
Good news is the event limitation was corrected.
Bad news is that we got 1.4 and few can play at all.
I usually snark to others that Angry Birds Awaits* but right now I might have to download that bunch of Kitten Squeezings. Nah, I have plenty of Steam games to play.
* implying that Angry Birds is closer to their abilities or playing style. |

Except we get stuff like the NULL cannon that don't. Well, that means it really is NULL.
And we get Large Rail Gun Turrets that don't work at all.
The latest whizzy features in the four point map with the drive through tunnels have markers for neutral turrets that don't exist. I was top gunner and I kept looking for it but they never appeared. They may have been under the DUST as it were.
QA, what a concept! |
