What are the developers doing?

Exactly, and agreed. It’s not as simple as a patch and move on. Their QA team has to test things to make sure they’re up to snuff before pushing it to the public. I mean, gotta make sure it works as it was intended. Bug fixes are generally distributed to different members of a team and they churn through them. Or, they’re in a bucket where devs pluck one they choose, fix it, test it, and move to the next. Multiple people don’t work on one bug fix, unless there’s a request for such a thing.

But depending on the depth of said bug, it may require more testing from the QA team. Basically there’s a LOT that comes with it all. To be quite honest I’m impressed they’ve even done 3 patches in two weeks. Albeit there’s still a lot of work to do. It will get done, you just can’t put a time frame on these things.

In my past there were moments where members of the team were asked to straight up not engage with the community. A lot of the time it was due to toxicity. This was a request/demand of one of the producers that moved it up the tree. Swore that it felt wrong, yeah, but worked out in the end. Benefitted them on previous projects, etc. So, I’m sure it’s something very similar. I just hope that, like a lot of the devs and pubs that have done that, they come around and engage hardcore when it all feels better.

PUblic treatment of these guys and girls are toxic and it will never end. The less they are involved the better. They are people too yet we will start to label them and in reference to the whole Naughty Dog thing going on. Its damn rampant.People become vultures and peck at their entrails and we as gameplayers have to bare witness.

Yea lets all berate and whine to them…Have some gratitude, this is a well made game with a lot of promise, yes there are bugs that need sorting. They have a content patch/DLC coming out this month already and Im sure theyre gonna drop a 1.07 patch sometime soon before it…Theyve been pretty good at listening to complaints and feedback, so theyre quiet as of just recently and its pandemonium all of a sudden

Even if they reply they will prolly get thrash talked back just like the devs in anthem that was a dumpster fire reddit/forums. its a loose loose at this point.

Still it would be nice to get some pointers on some bugs if they know about them and if they are applying fixes and to what.

Exactly. It wouldn’t be what people would want to hear and it would progressively get worse.

People are going to ask when A, B, and C, etc. will be fixed. If so, when?

You can’t put a time on that, so in their defense they would respond in a very open end fashion. Like, “It’s currently being worked on, but we can’t provide a date at this time.” That would just make people livid. A lot of those people don’t realize the damage that comes with a response that isn’t solid. That’s just more ammo for the community to use against you. They don’t want that. 🤷🏻‍♂️
