So no patch yet?

Looks like Buckaroo Sev and his cowpokes are going to try and let this fucker ride for a while. Fred can go fuck himself apparently.

So if you find any new features folks, enjoy.

Wonder if this fuck it attitude will spell the end of those rapid fire hot fixes of just a couple months ago? How soon they become worn down.

Accountability is hard yo.

They won't patch just for this, they are building up a clusterfuck of bugs to put into a patch.

Then, they will bring the servers down for a hotfix, probably during the busiest playtime possible (Friday/Saturday night U.S. time).

Yeah he bothers me, he is a asshat. But I think it was actually seeing him and hearing him stumble through discussing DDO in several videos and podcasts that made me want to cunt-punt him.

Nothing against you Cosmic, but this phrase always bugs me.
It has always been the way with Turdbine since day 1.

If the servers go down, it ain't really a hotfix.  They have indoctrinated us to accept this.
But I agree with your sentiment, they'll wait until the worst time to actually take them down.
The interesting part was that they did slip in two hotfixes last year without server outages.  So they can do it.  I guess they take the opportunity to change out the mice.

Guys you know that stuff not working for the players is mostly irrelevant.  Enjoy the game they want you to.  Fred is no longer a game mechanic, apparently?  No feat changes for you, you'll just have to buy a heart and TR/ETR.....    Wink

The hotfixes will start when they get a whiff of the exploits.... Like the 900k xp from Crucible.   Grin. But only because it affects Otto's sales.

I wonder how those awesome Bigby's boxes are going?  Haven't seen many sales on those?  Must be too popular that they don't need a sale?

Na, they are not aware of an exploit for them Tongue they always go on sale the day before they fix a dupe exploit.

I reckon they got pulled as no-one bought them. Stupid idea.
It was more a tangential comment in relation to the Otto's boxes comment.

Speaking of stupid ideas.
Took a look at the TOEE crafting after a quick run thru TOEE part 1.

So you get lvl 26 blanks that can be upgraded 3 times.
The first upgrade costs 200 shrooms.  A complete run through of every room on EN yielded 8 shrooms.
Roughly 25 runs to get a tier 1 upgrade.

The upgradeable crafting system is not a bad concept, but the douches have positioned it at lvl 26.  That's a truck load of grind to craft a weapon that will be useful for 2 levels.  They've boxed themselves - if they had made it 21-25 range craftable gear it would be good, but the content had to be 30 to help fill in the gap from 28-30.

I'd argue that rangen around 25-26 is a helluva lot easier to acquire and almost as good.  The only redeeming feature for the TOEE blank weaps is 5W damage dice.

Most peeps have their CITW weapons or other named weapons from the mid-20's, not to mention t1 and t2 TF items as well.
If these TOEE weapons were easier to acquire and upgrade than a TF t2, then I'd say ok not too bad.  But they're not. Even then, the items are one element focused, so their usefulness is quite limited.
I won't even start on the caster sticks and armor.    Angry

Unfortunately, there is little compelling reason why anyone would want any of the craftable loot from TOEE.  And what the devs have yet to realise, is that it will mean all those hundreds of dev hours put into TOEE will be largely wasted as it will be an almost dead content pack in a few months.

How do these guys not get it?  They have player feedback.  They have a bloody PC.  How can they not get this stuff right?
Pretty disappointing.   Undecided

I got one! On he.

I had about an hour to play, so figured I might as well have a look around on heroic, just to learn my way around, and I got chest with a shroom in (at least I think it was just one?)... so at least it doesn't seem to require you to play at level.

Well if you want to farm heroic mushrooms for heroic crafting at level 28 be my guest.  And yes there is 1 chest that contains only 1 mushroom, no loot nothing else just 1 mushroom, it is next to a pit trap.

No, Bigby's was the shitty ottos box that had a stone that didn't give more xp when players had xp buffs.  It was released after the original Otto's box that did stack with our buffs.

Turbine then started nerfing the shit out of the usability / trade ability from Otton stones in an attempt to make bigbys more appealing, but instead got caught out for false advertising and issued refunds when contacted via phone support.

I don't really want to run the quest at all.

Now, give me all your stuff.

Besides the crafting part of it, the XP part is also bad... they made it a level 28 quest and the base XP is about 50K... and the quest takes a fuck-ton amount of time.

But if you are capped at 28, all that XP is wasted (unless you are capped at 28 running different destinies, but that would be dumb since most would Epic TR to get another past epic life while working on other destinies).

Fred has been on and off for a long time.... Why do you think he ended up in the Asylum ?

That's because he got mind broken and forgot the could respect feats...

If you really really really need to respect a feat because the half arsed Rogue Pass broke your character and you need to respec a Feat, just LR or even better TR.
Because if such a shitty pass can break a toon, that toon needs to be rebuilt from scratch.

It was made abundantly clear to them on the PC how bad the loot was. And how pointless weapons are considering we just had TF, and GS has already been announced.

The problem, the new weapon models were made before this council was chosen and the development didn't want to waste them.  It's hilarious.

Bright side, one change was made because of us, the devs didn't realise that wooden weapons take damage from oozes, the elemental bane club was originally had ooze bane.  Everbright was pointed out as an option, but was ignored.

It's all good though, weapons have been released, so the models weren't wasted. lol.

Worse than wasted, some of us are actually opting to stay with heroics and just HTR rather than clutter inventory with yet another crafting system. So it cuts adventure pack sales (no need to buy anything past the MOTU expansion for destinies at 20) and thins out the end-game population.

Adding bad crafting systems hurts the game in a lot of ways  Sad
  

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.

Too long, and the loot is not there.
It's gonna last exactly until they lower tome drop rates again and "limited offer +7 tome" pops in store.
I guess next Thursday.

I got 2 shrooms on HN just dicking around for 30-40 mins on a bank toon.
