Anyone know the reason for this...

Maybe something a lil too tasty for the players?

Who cares? There is nothing in the game worth exploiting right now.  They can fix whatever they want - or break whatever they want as history proclaims.

Some attack speed issues got out, thats probably the reason for it being a hotfix. They said they'd put up release notes though, so there might be more. I suspect they'll try and fix the new adventure packs first.

Then again, they might just randomly write stuff in the release notes because testing code is too much work.

This^  And before you Turbine people who read the vault get all indignant - how could you have missed end quest bosses not spawning, had you actually tested?

How could the 4 released quests have completion issues? That is what I don't understand.  I mean seriously, you complete all objectives, loot the final chest, and you get no xp or completion.  It makes me violent.

Patch notes up:

Release Notes: Update 15
Welcome to the Release Notes for Dungeons & Dragons Online! These release notes were posted on Thursday, August 23th, 2012.

News & Notes
Epic Destinies

Fatesinger will no longer conflict with Bardic songs-per-rest.

Quests
Outbreak
Fixed an issue where killing a boss too early prevented its objective from appearing on the objectives list, preventing you from actually completing all objectives to receive quest completion.

Red Musk pollen effects will now properly end rather than lingering ad infinitum.

Thorn and Paw

Corrected an issue where killing a corruption node from too far away prevented quest completion.

Overgrowth

The Mysterious Bard should no longer mysteriously not show up to help you find mysterious doors.
Fixed an issue that prevented the Dryad from completing her tree drama.

The Druid's Curse

Missing DM text has been added back in to better clarify one of the drama moments during the end fight.

Several hard & elite raid bosses were found hanging out off stage. They have been ushered back into their proper positions.

As I said elsewhere, they're just putting in the other half of the update they forgot about.

That's what gets me.  Breaking something unrelated in Threnal, OK, I understand that shit can happen.  All 4 quests that center the pack having major issues.  That's sloppy and total fucking bullshit.  Right now, Turbine is just shoveling garbage on top of garbage. 

They don't even show any concern for how fucked up the game is right now.  In the 6 years I have been a subscriber, I can't think of a time when the core mechanics of the game were so fucked up, where the performance of the engine so poor, and each update failed to even remotely address the problems but instead put more broken shit on top of the already broken shit.

Yet they are considering this a great success.

I don't see how but it's totally not surprising they have always been good at lying to themselves.  Their concurrent users must be way down from release in June.  Using the Who panel and our guild roster proves this.  Hell, I've been a seldom player since late July because I was fed up.  At times, I want to agree with the conspiracy nuts who think they are purposely killing the game so they can make some radical change.

I totally agree.  I'm usually happy with the game - if I can get my loot, xp and hang out my friends, then I'm having fun and that's all I require.  There are annoying things here and there, but what game doesn't have that?  But this is just ridiculous.  I feel like the players and developers (see: Feather_of_Suck) are just thinking 2 completely different things and it's getting frustrating.  How do you release a huge new expansion, then follow it up with a release of new quests that you are just unable to complete?  Who allows that to go live??

It's a simple scale if the bugs piss me off more than I'm enjoying the game it's bad.

We ran through it on Monday and it completed, so I guess we were just lucky. I wish at this point they would stop releasing new stuff until they back the fuck up and fix everything else.

Success for them is not judged by putting out good content.  Success for them is getting dumb asses to sub for 6 years, bitch about the same things over and over, and still keep on subbing.

Fuck.  Fucking fuckballs.

They fucked up epic XP.  Fucking bitches. 


You can make shitty raids for all you want, but DON'T FUCK WITH MY XP.

The change that gave extra range before getting "over level" XP penalties on Epics fell out of the code with this patch. 

Fuckers.
