If you're talking about how Heavies are slow then... what the **** did you expect?

Do you seriously think that they should make heavies have the same speed as a medium but with double the HP? What do you think they do to resolve the issue? Cause I can tell you now that most people are happy with the system now, maybe more sprint time is needed but thats just me.

If you are talking about a glitch for the fact that you can't sprint, then why not open up a ticket to them? You do know that the forums are just that, somewhere for you to consider, and discuss ideas, not really for fast and responsive actions to a problem. If you wanted to talk to your fire department about how they would improve their service you wouldn't call 999 (or 911), and if you needed to be rescued from a fire you wouldn't send them an email.

I'm actually a scout. I speed tank, and there have been issues with this stuff since uprising. That is right. That long. Bugs get less then worse, then pop up. new ones pop up. What never happens, however, is bugs getting fixed.

I've posted on the forums. Many people have. The best dev response I ever got was to record my playing while demonstrating it. I tell CCP what, send me a rig to record my play sessions with return postage paid and I will send it back chock full of bug footage. You can demonstrate it by playing in a scout suit for 1 minute. Sprint, slash knives or shoot, and then sprint. I did enough QA for them with no help or response or fix.

Won't happen. this isn't even to talk about how projectiles stop you cold presumably while the server figures out hit calculations. Or how you sink into the ground while taking fire and begin moving like a turtle. Or how you stick to terrain, get stuck in it, and let;s not even talk about railings or any other corner that will snag you.

Sorry man. There's no defending this. You are free to make excuses for them, of course. I assure you, the ball is not in my court.

Also, this isn't necessarily about this specific bug, but their issues with fixing bugs, and more so- their absolute lack of software QA.

You can record with a webcam or a camera phone or anything you can plug in a computer and email to [email protected] As for bugs getting less then worse then new ones etc. ... that's a result of bugs being fixed, you can't change a single line of code in something as complex as a game like this without a huge chance of it affecting something other code elsewhere that called on that line for a completely different reason but because it gave the desired result without adding extra code. It's called redundancy, more redundant code reduces these risks but causes slower procedures and far larger file sizes, whereas minimal redundancy is the preferred method giving smaller file downloads and more efficient running speeds but has the side effect of code changes causing other problems and they can't spend a month testing every change just to see if anything else has been affected. What they can do is what they do do ... fix things on the fly with hotfixes unless they need major changes to code, in those cases they can only get those changes rolled out in the next months new build. Just be glad we're in a monthly build cycle. But that's not to say your specific bug is next on the list to be fixed !

Haven't they even said they're going to be working on scouts in one of the coming builds ? ... just because they're not working on your particular problem with the game right now doesn't warrant you having a hissing fit on the forums about it.

I said I wouldn't fix it just to spite you, I never said they wouldn't. And as for my attitude, it serves me well ... if someone comes to me ranting a raving about how unprofessional I am or how I have no pride in my job, without ever having seen me doing my job, then I would just ignore them and walk away, I would even go out of my way to not do what it was they wanted me to do. If however, someone came saying 'I can see you're busy but when you get chance could you ... ?' I'd drop what I was doing and oblige. You see it's not people that 'take pride in their work and strive for perfection' that succeed and stand out, it's the arseholes that make a lot of noise and make sure they're heard no matter how important what they have to say, the arrogant, the ignorant, the selfish, the devious and cheaters that stand out and succeed ... just look at any politition, bank chairmen, even many big corporate CEOs. As for losing out on opportunity and wealth as I get passed by people who work harder ... lmao, you have a lot to learn ! ... I get passed by those pricks in their audi's all day long, you see after I aced my terciary education and went to university, I came to realise there's more to life than climbing ladders and pay scales ... I left education with enough paperwork to walk into a Bank Mangers job, or Network Infrastructure, even applied or theoretical physics, but you know what I realised, I didn't enjoy any of that, so I went out and got a job I did enjoy and you know what, I still look forward to work every day and I laugh at those pricks in their audi's when they smash into the back of a truck cos they were too busy blagging their colleagues about how impressive they think they are. I hope you take away a lesson from this and next time you want someone to do something for you, you use a little courtesy !
