for those that can't read it :

Hey! Is it actually spring out there? Baseball season has begun and playoff Hockey in full swing!
Spring, time to do a little cleaning up. Cordovan is going to be updating the Known issues list removing all the things that are actually fixed.
Here is a quick look at a good chunk of bugs that will be removed from the list. All of these are fixed.

    DDO: Voiceovers for DM Text in Restless Isles doesn't match, all mixed up

                             

    DDO Store: Continue shopping link takes you to the homepage

                                   

    Store: Filter: Shared Bank Space offer does not filter out once purchased, allowing multiple purchases

                 

    Spells: Combat Log: When Shield Wears Off its Combat Log Text has a Typo

                             

    Maze of Madness: Monsters Aggro at hirelings through walls, and combined with mephit monster summons, lead to red dungeon alert

    Small Guild Chest (estore) has incorrect permissions

                                         

    Update 7 Quests: Framework: Ballistas don't seem to function properly

                                   

    U8 Blockade Buster: Perpetual falling spot on the ship

                                         

    Ice Festival Coins and Epic Scrolls auto grant has DNT text

                                         

    U9 - In the Flesh - Some lines of DM Text do not appear during boss battle

                             

    U9 Spell Revisions: Wiz/Sorc: Create Undead: Spell has a cooldown the description doesn't mention

                 

    DDO: eStore: Players who purchase Maple Airship Interior Stain receive White version instead

                 

    Vault of Night Part 6 Needs Resurrection Shrine After Completion

                                   

    No rezz shrine at the end of vault of night dragon fight.

                                         

    grouping tab in social panel has no Artificer icon

                                               

    U11: Per-spell metamagic toggle sometimes quickens when it shouldn't and vice versa

                       

    U13: Negative Effects don't display.

                                                     

    U13: Insight Bonuses do not Display in the effects channel.

                                         

    DDO JBUG: Epic Destiny - Fury of the Wild: Tunnel Vision override the effects on handwraps until the handwraps are re-equipped

    DDO: U18: Racial Enhancements: Halfling: Master Thrower does not function

                             

    DDO: u18: Enhancements: Kensei: CBug: One With the Blade stops functioning when players log out then back in

           

    DDO: Exploit: Ranger: Arcane Archer: Players can stack multiple elemental arrow stances

                       

    DDO: u21: Shards for Cake: Unselecting the "Do not auto-show this in quests" box does not make the Revive for Shards automatic…?


For every good news there is some bad news right? Yeah, sorry about that.
These are some issues that are just going to remain the way they are for the time being. Never say never, but these are not on the radar anymore.

    Changing sort options in a Cannith Crafting device does not reset the device recipe list's page number.

    Elven Accuracy is currently described as “2% to hit with all attacks.” While it is working, it does not give feedback anywhere that it is working.

    Update 8 - Blockade Buster - A player who dies in a ship explosion remains in ship while ghosted.(by design)

    Male Half Elf: Facial hair options should be on a different slider than facial detail options

    U7 - Summon Monster IV - Greater Ice Mephit has incorrect skin(by design)

    U9 - Examination Window UI - Grease is not listed under "Your Harmful Effects" in examination window

    U9: spell revisions: Grease costs too much SP-the SP is correct.

    DDO: U18: Enhancements: Frenzied Berserker: Exhausting Blow cost incorrect amount of AP--AP is correct.

    Summon Monster III - skin and visibility problems with creatures

    Summon Monster IX - Ghaele selection window zoomed in too close

    Visual effects on +1 Starter Scimitar does not disappear during emotes.

    White Dragonscale robe - When wearing this item, dark-skinned female drow neck turns white

    Guild Mail Invites: Players receive them when the Game Option "Accept Guild Invites" is false

    DDO: JBUG: LFG icon doesnt disappear when you group

    Cyclonic Blast damage numbers don't display in combat log

    Death Pact debuff persists through dungeon entry, though buff does not


Any issues that are not mentioned here are still on the known issues.

So other topics:
Next Thursday you can get your first look at the new 3 Barrel Cove. Giant Airship attacks, revamped missions...come check it out.
The Lamannia Schedule will look like this - All of this of course is subject to change.

    May 9 - Epic 3 barrel cove
    May 15 Guilds! Swashbuckler!
    May 22 Guilds! Other surprises!
    May 30 (subject to change)
    June 6 (subject to change)


In the next week we will release more info on the new Guild Amenities. They are probably not what you expect.

See ya in a week! Ask any questions you want, I'll be checking in over the weekend!

Go Bruins!

I think it's a tossup between the shield combat log text and:

Quote:

...as to which is going to be noticed by the fewest people.

The list Maj posted is things that were in the publicly facing "known issues list" but should not be because they had been fixed.

We don't know when they were fixed.

I've been waiting for the Radiant Aura to be fixed since it appeared... It's still bugged, they seem to have gotten Targeting right, but the fix for auras to stay when you crossed a portal was lost in the process...

These embarrassing problems will persist until they fix the culture of "Turbine is unlike anyone else who revises their code and therefore does not need to manage their versions.  Seriously, you don't understand and making Turbine do grown up version management would ruin their life."


They could save Jerry (or whoever isn't updating the Known Issues List) a lot of time by adding this to the Known Issues List:

"From time to time we will re-introduce old versions of code to the live codebase because we can't be bothered to keep track of such things. We know we do this. We know that it breaks things we've already fixed. We are content with the perception of customer care and quality this creates."

Don't even have Aura anymore, I think it's more like really useful luxury but yes, it's a prime example of Quality Control and frustration.
What we had :
Not persists through portals.
Click aura, step on something, nothing happens.
Click aura, stand still, nothing happens except Turn gone.
Metas turning on and off depending on planets constellation.
Losing spell power on yourself.
Losing your spell power until your target swing a weapon.
I think turns weren't regenerating at one point too.

What pisses me off now is Divine Cleansing long-stuck in place animation.

+6 tomes coming to loot tables....soon lol
crystal cove probably 2nd to last or last weekend of May, but loot doesn't seem to be upgraded (until 2015?)

What's the point of asking you questions if THIS is all we are going to get?

Next questions:

-When are you going to fix targeting issues that popped with the last patch? It's a pretty serious bug. I won't go into details, I sent you a PM with all the links about this issue.
- When are you going to fix the Temple of Deathwyrm bugs (again in your PMs)?
- Will you give us Elite gamers any reason to run EE 3BC? You are going away from the tiered loot, which gives us no reason to run ee. Even if you increase the drop loot, Normal is just way easier.
- Tomes. Will E3BC have +6 tomes as well?. Will you put +6 tomes in the random gen loot table soon? I don't believe they are actually in the table in the EE Raids. So far no reports on even ONE tome. ZERO dropped so far.

Im not going to write a book on some of this. Varaguille has discussed the comm thing...all the way down to the math. Yes, the biggest xp/m quest is not optimal for comms.

Ill check my pm's
e3bc um...for fun? Check it on lamma next week.
Tomes...look at history. Tomes seem to always show up eventually.
targeting.ill investigate.
crystal cove loot will be adjusted the next time out. So this time is exactly as last year.

ah the promise word appears. There needs to be a discussion about this, when I'm on a real keyboard. I understand the community reaction. I'm not a fan of continuing the sins of the past because someone said something and it became law.
The rest of the year is about fixing the core game. Enhancements. Combat. Loot. There is new stuff too, but it all aligned with those 3 things.



If the double log thing is still happening plz share. I'm under the impression it is fixed.

Oh this is so true! "Oh, what I do is hard so I shouldn't have to follow best practices".

It reminds me of complaining to my dentist when I was a kid that flossing took too much time, and he told me I don't have to floss all of my teeth, only the ones I want to keep.

Turbine - you don't have to put out a quality product, and I don't have to spend any more money on a crappy product. Your move.
  

Turdbin, keep changing the DDO rules, because McDonalds sold over 200 billion hamburgers by changing the recipe for their Special Sauce every couple of months to keep interest up.

These posts kind of bore me. I can't even make myself focus long enough to read it.

They could just as well say "we changed a bit of colour here and there". OK!

So, judging from plan on Lamannia for Update 22  it looks like Sagas won't make it back to live until Mid-June.

This is like a half-decent list from a half-decent developer's one week of work.  What a joke.  String updates?  Gimme a break.  That's literally a 30-second job.

True but this isn't a list of upcoming fixes. It's an open and public editing of the known issue list. The fact that it is being communicated at all is an improvement.

We don't know when or how long any of these fixes happened or took and it isn't the point.

I'm just waiting for when the flying carpet of hope gets yanked out from under and DDO goes plummeting again.
