IS Quirk Information being released

I almost forgot one could do 30 pinpoint long range without a gauss ! and this build feels like a dual gauss without charge.

The only problem is occasional heat management, but with quirks this is really not gonna happen anymore.

 

As others alluded to, this is sort of the new standard. The resources and ability necessary to test a game on this scale with the comprehensiveness needed is simply not feasible. There's just too much computing to do, and so the best most companies can do is to ask the loving engineer, "Hey man, ballpark guess, what sounds right?", get an answer, shoot said engineer, implement that ballpark, and then use the playtime (and player feedback) in the live environment to fix it. As a player of many, many games casually I've seen and felt this in action increasingly over the years. I'd be lying to say it stops being frustrating, but you do learn to make the most of it.

Personally, though, it's ruined me for PLAYING on any kind of public test server, for any game, ever, without a specific reward incentive to do so. Reasons:
1) When you find bugs, only game breaking/crashing bug will be prioritized before launch. Anything less doesn't matter until AFTER that wave of content launches (working at all >>> working better). Other people are already finding these.

2) Even if you are discreet and effective about reporting an exploit, it will often be overlooked so long as you don't personally abuse it. Until someone starts breaking things or publicly sharing it, it's not a priority. If it IS leaked, you're super scrutinized, regardless of having nothing to do with it. Sort of the business version of #1...a very limited number of people getting stuff in a way that doesn't directly impact other players is acceptable loss, it's only when the game economy breaks and widespread money is lost that they care.

3) I'm ALREADY playing on a test server, they're always gathering metrics data. Why would I play on one where I can't keep stuff if anything good I even manage to do is going to be ignored?

Its better to overdo it the first time, and then readjust it to a more acceptable amount. IMO it's generally the best way to learn skills in real life as well.

 

What does a banana and MS Windows have in common? - they ripe at the customer.....old saying back from the days of 3.1 and 95/98
Same applies to MW:O - but hey - Windows is still alive and kicking

 

Masgoose, my name is Bill Gates and I'm going to teach you how to count to 10:

1
2
3
95
98
NT
2000
XP
Vista
7
8
10

 

To be fair, skipping Windows 9 was actually fairly well thought out, due to lazy programmers and version checking. "Why check for either Win 95 or Win 98 when we can just look to see if it starts with Win 9?"

 

What?

Anyone with any knowledge of international business knows that the number 9 is avoided by any sensible multinational company as it is an unlucky number in a few Asian countries like Japan, where it also represents suffering.

 

haha then WIndows 9 would have been perfectly appropriate. The successor of the HP Dl380G7 server was called "Gen8" instead of G8 because in chinese it sounds like "penis". This is not a joke, some HP pre-sales dudes told us.

anyway, Nov 4th will be both terribly frightening and totally awesome. It's like Snu Snu. It will kill you but you will die happy

 

Coincidentally 4 is also an unlucky number.
