Their incredibly helpful suggestion is to stop using [url=/en/help/?search=Firefly]Firefly[/url].[/quote] That's a bit untrue. They've tried with at least 2 patches to fix it: once end of 2015 and once the other week. The 2015 one did make things "better" but didn't solve it. And the other week's seems to have done nothing for it. You can call them incompetent, and that would be largely acceptable (if a bit harsh). But saying "refused to fix it" implies they haven't tried or acknowledged it.

  • [quote]But saying "refused to fix it" implies they haven't tried or acknowledged it.[/quote] Oh, they've absolutely acknowledged it, but I stand by saying they've refused to fix it because this has been a problem for over a year now and they barely communicate about it. "Stop using Firefly" simply isn't good enough when it comes to a bug that crashes the entire game.

  • Largely it's just semantics. I've heard that at work at it bothers me since I know person X did what they asked for, but they changed their mind later, then said person X has done nothing all year. There have been 2 patches for this. Once just in the last 1-2 weeks. Again, you could call them incompetent for being unable to fix a repeatable crash on a popular feature for at LEAST a year. Like... w t f. But "refuse" to fix it implies they haven't done a single thing. Think of it like Firemen. Your house is on fire and some inept firemen come to put out the fire and take longer than they should. They might have done a cruddy job, but they didn't refuse to put out the fire or whatever.

Unfortunately. We can go back and forth all day about what they have or have not done and word it however we want to, but this should have been fixed a LONG time ago. It's inexcusable.

I mean, it would be bad enough if it was some obscure action or some unpopular perk. But... Firefly is one of the most popular PvE perks. If not THE most popular perk. And for a bug like this to exist for a year+ is beyond sad. I mean I can understand SOME of it... some people have the issue constantly, others rarely, others never. So maybe it's hard to narrow down. But not 13+ months hard
