I read that it was getting fixed before, did they just forget to put it in the notes?

I'm pretty sure it wasn't a stealth nerf, this was just the first time people realized how much the cost had increased.

Erm, IIRC it has been stated numerous time in the Known Issues that the reset value was INCORRECT ( and not WAI ) and that it was going to be fixed.

anyway, time to read a tamper tantrum.



Apparently, the value was correct, the deduction wasn't. So that 150-200k plat bill was the real charge after all, rather than it being a display error.

200k pp to respec out of broken ass shit is the issue. Fix the fucking EDs and then maybe people wouldn't be so mad about having to pay so much to change them around.

This is the thing that Tolero doesn't seem to be getting.  YO SHIT IS BUSTED, TURBINE!  Why do I need to pay 150K to get back points that were spent on abilities that don't do what they say they do?

Well, there is an upside. Maybe some of the folks that 'don't have bugs' will bring more up, now that working around em takes a chunk out of their hide.

I was listening to the Talkin Shit podcast with Eddie Ifft and Jim Jefferies and Bert Kreischer said that it was really awkward when he first started dating his now-wife because he wasn't used to coming with someone else in the room.

4 MONTH AFTER RELEASE AND LIKELY AFTER A YEAR OF DEVELOPMENT TIME.

God, no other company would get away with this shit and have people making excuse after excuse for them.

Gawna I love your post about loving that time.


In a related bit of news, I finally figured out why FoS sucks so bad at building items people want: his one big accomplishment was that sack of shit heal amp focused paladin monk "Solar Phoenix" build. He never did real DPS so he doesn't know how to build DPS weapons.


Waitwaitwait...

SolarDawning = Fos?

REALLY?!

Hmmm...

That Shade_z dude sounds an awful like Shade in his vocabulary choices, syntax and delivery...but he's a casual  Wink player.

Did Axer use Tor?

Looks like they sent a dev out to take the blame.

http://forums.ddo.com/showpost.php?p=4723901&postcount=325

It doesn't make sense. They have revision control, and project tracking software. Having half a fix go into production should be fucking impossible. I don't want to say he is lying, but...

Hi everyone,

As you all found out, we 'fixed' the bug with epic destiny reset costs where it was checking for platinum but taking copper pieces.

This was supposed to be a two-part fix, and I didn't get the second part into the patch. (I thought that the first half was going into Update 16.) The cost to reset epic destinies shouldn't be 200k platinum - that's way too much.

In Update 16, the cost to reset an epic destiny will be 1,000 platinum per action point spent in the tree - a max of 24,000 pp for a full tree. Each time you reset a tree, a price multiplier is supposed to go up, which will decay back to the base cost over the next two days. Resetting destiny trees isn't supposed to be traumatizing, and this wasn't intended to be a crazy cash grab.

We're looking for a few interim solutions to make things less painful until my half of the fix can get in. I'll let you know once I hear what we can do.

Sorry again for the mistake.

I'm under the impression that he's lying out of his ass so that Turbine doesn't look quite as bad[i] for this, but at least they aren't keeping it the way it is. If the "hotfix" (Turbine is the only company I know of that brings servers down for a hotfix... that is almost always too little too late) isn't issued REALLY FAST, like say TOMORROW, the damage will have already been done from this.

If it's true, their inability to version and source control their software show how mismanaged and unprofessional their development team is.  This is the kinda shit you learn Day 1 as a professional developer.

There's no professionals at turbine.

I say this despite liking maj mal, but things have definately been the same or worse since his appointment.
