	Meet the new boss.� Same as the old boss. Publicly apologize for this crap and fix it this week. Or don't. Handling this in the same manner as your predecessors is cool, too.

Darth Anonymous wrote on Feb 1^st, 2014 at 1:11pm: Hearing something has "merit" but we don't have "time" kind of says everything about how Turbine works on things. eighnuss wrote on May 27^th, 2014 at 12:52pm: everyone but turbine knows that we are sad they are destroying our game majmalphunktion wrote on Aug 30^th, 2013 at 12:12am: I don't make the game, I just get tested what they build. Sorry you are not happy. Skoodge wrote on Nov 27^th, 2014 at 6:54am: DDO is easy to summarize - the greatest game to suck the most ass. GooFY wrote on Mar 2^nd, 2015 at 5:36pm: Turbine - So incompetent that we are skeptical when they report their own incompetence. � Meursault wrote on May 11^th, 2015 at 8:10pm: Other companies will settle for shitting out garbage, Turdbin actually prefers to. Especially if they can get us to buy it, that just cracks them up. Meursault wrote on Nov 12^th, 2015 at 2:50pm: Breaking something and putting it back together isn't as good as not breaking it to begin with, it's not even close. palmer01 wrote on Nov 20^th, 2015 at 9:05am: Devs do not care what players want - they already have an agenda and give out token gestures so the paladins can feel worthy. PersonaNonGrata wrote on Oct 4^th, 2016 at 1:24am: The DDO devs aren't motivated by a positive user experience.

	I find my enjoyment of updates is usually increased if I ignore the update and do what I would have done before.

	All he will say is "We fixed more bugs than we created". This is about numbers... not quality. You should be THANKING me for having new content get released. Why isn't everyone worshipping at my feet? You people really don't know anything about how to have fun playing a game.

	And they added named bosses named after themselves... Major Mal in Ghost of a Chance and Glin in Prove Your Worth. If you want to do that type of narcissistic crap, make sure what you are putting your name to isn't a steaming pile of crap.

	It's really impressive, you guys from Turdbin ruined the bags to everybody and still didn't fix shit. How is be that bad at your job that even the fanbois are complaining about the update? Every update you ruined more and more the game. You guys suck and are stupid, i don't even hope you fix the game for now i'm just happy to make fun of you.

	Dear players, The D&D rules you were familiar with were too simple to understand, so we're continuing our move away from them to needlessly confusing subsystems that will make your play experience less fun and invalidate old builds and loot. We hope you have fun working out what the fuck MRR, PRR, MP, SP, RP, CL, MCL and all the other bullshit we made up whilst drunk means. Love, People who don't know how to fix their own mistakes cleanly

Handling this in the same manner as your predecessors is cool, too. A public apology would be a good start, but talk is cheap. Maybe you've finally hit enough of a junkie low that you can admit the "SDLC best practices don't apply to me because I work on an MMO" crack you've been smoking is destroying your game? CrapCodeAholics Anonymous suggests you start with something simple and easy enough for even drooling morons to understand - Don't go live with anything that hasn't been in a completely unchanged state on your Release Candidate server (Lamania) for a long enough time period to have a high percentage of code hit. I'd say at least 2 weeks if you have a decent population on, but maybe 3 or 4 if the changes are big or the population is dissolusioned because your bug reporting tools are crap and bugs have been a low priority for ages. And of course, having it sit on the RC server isn't enough, you have to actually collect, acknowledge, and act on bug reports. Normally I wouldn't think that last bit had to be explicitly stated, but, you know, Turbine Ahhhh, I do still care! ... At least a little.

	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.

	I think we're looking at this from the wrong perspective. This is the first update that Maj Mal wasn't in QA.
