Are the devs lazy 2.0

#1

Plz keep to topic plz

So sure we are in a pandemic but That should mean the devs have ample amounts of time to test new patches and triple check the code they have typed.

This doesn’t seem to be the case with the amount of bugs that plague this game. I feel the dev team are just straight out copying and pasting code from last patch to the current instead of re doing it. I mean how lazy can you be. This game and all games that have come out during this pandemic should have the amount of time to be bug free tested extensively but its not. They just submit the work without dbl checking or even checking it before they hit send.

The clues are out there with all there dumb ass post on Twitter and here like look at our dumb ass pets. Or enter one of out dumb ass contest so we can waste time judging them instead of doing our work.

Im fairly certain that the devs are just fat fucks who are extremely lazy. The pandemic has given the excuse and Alibi to submit shitty work. Like a game with this many bugs for this long should have made some kind of break through but nope. We are back to blue screens because some fuck over at Illfonic copy and pasted his lines of code and always missed the first 3 characters and last 5. Hence why the game blue screens constantly.

After the first blue screen fiasco you would think they would have learned and triple checked everything but nope they just lazy

They aren’t lazy

They are less capable

Less capable is a cop out. How do you continue to update a game and break it even more every update? How is that even possible? Why is it acceptable? How is possible to be this incompetent?
If PHG was a women it would have already cheated on Illfonic with a more superior Company.

I’ve been watching a lot of kitchen nightmares lately bare with me

I think they’re learning as they go and making it up along the way

They need to talk to their QA people though

I hope they aren’t paying them too much

I am available for QA

I will do it for less than what you pay them and I will do it better. Bet.

Like how bad would it really be if they just over all stoped working on content. Removed the last few patches and re worked balance and then started the content back up.

#6

DhRauta can you define what a developer does?

#7

I’m assuming they’re salaried workers

So it wouldn’t be a big deal

You’re wrong. so wrong. LMAO.

Their “job” is to code the base engine from the ideas of the design team, they also may have a chance to help make level design and character models. But overall are here to type base codes

#10

Yeah they definitely are not salary based cause if so they would have already breached whatever contract they signed.

#11

they already have a base engine called Unreal…if they have/need someone to code special parts (not in the engine already)they’ve already hired them and theyve already left ( their contracts have already finished when they’ve launched the game).
Anything that is above and beyond this would require them to rehire coders but they probably don’t have any new core mechanics.
Currently they would have to utilize or re-purpose parts of the engine to make something else.

whatever work theyve done above and beyond UnrealEd isn’t enough to constitute it as a new engine. You would likely see some brand new engine in the wikipedia if they did.

Sadly i’m not expecting a AAA open world from them unless illfonic sources out an entirely different engine and team.

#12

You just asked me what is the definition not what they do

#13

Then there is a huge problem in that they’re paying people to not do anything or not paying them at all

#14

They definitely getting paid. But it seems more like they are not fully doing there job

#15

If they stop content

The whole art team is either getting paid and not working or not working and not getting paid

#16

We’ll sure their salary only indicates how often they get paid. Doesnt mean they are there forevers.

#17

I’m 100% ignorant in the matter

I’m a mere plebe who worked for a measly $14/hr

We can never know who or how many are there permanently or if their work ever sees the light of day.
Most artists can’t show their work until a year later (due to their NDA),
coders will never actually work on the core engine (otherwise they are liable to break it, so sometimes they actually get UnrealEd devs to do it and that could take a year), only make plugin scripts and such.

To say any of them are lazy because they aren’t making what you desire is being ignorant of many facts in which we have no business knowing about.

I think we can all agree whoever is doing the testing at illfonic need to be retrained or replaced

Or they knew there were bugs but have a schedule to follow with content

I’m a lifelong gamer I’ll do it for half thier pay and do it better

Or you know this art team can become checkers and have a print version of what the code is supposed to be and read it line for line to find the mistakes. Or this art team becomes paid tester and have to play the game for 12 hours a day with a note book and pen and write down every time a bug occurs
