General Greetings Frontier. I’ve got a Bug.

This bug has been around for what feels like years. It appears to be the landing gears hydraulics or something glitching through the Adders Cockpit, just to the left of the pilots seat.

I was curious if you could patch it up during your current endeavor to polish your game. Thanks.

The fact that this bug needs to be "agreed upon" just confirms how dumb the issue tracker is.

Don't agree (pardon the pun!) Looks to me that the voting thing is Frontier's way of finding out whether or not something is real before they investigate, so they don't waste resources on an imaginary bug, or something that only affects a very small number of players, which would obviously be lower priority compared with a bug which was affecting many players. Likewise how serious the bug is: a very minor bug may not irritate many people whereas something major would irritate a lot of people, and would thus get more votes, and then get fixed much faster.

Just one more reason I don't play much anymore TBH.

This community is way too forgiving for bugs.

I mean we had people literally denying the falling skimmer bug.

Says it all really.

Yeah, I understand why they do it but the conditions are restrictive. Last I heard it had to get 10 votes in a month or it gets relegated to the dustbin. That's excessive.

If you find a bug, then post a link to the bug report so other players can vote. Should get 10 votes pretty quickly if others are noticing the bug! I've seen other forum members do that.

That sounds good to me, this bug is just cosmetic and honestly, it doesn’t interfere with what’s happening in front of the ship at all therefore it isn’t that big of a deal but I just figured I’d report it. I doubt it’ll get fixed anytime soon considering it’s, again, a small bug that affects VERY few people (Adder Pilots).

you can't vote up an issue unless it is confirmed as such, meaning they must have had investigated it already. you can, however, add more info or comments.

votes just help them gauge what is most demanded by the players, i dunno how they really use that criteria. severity should ideally always take priority, with estimated complexity maybe being a circumstantial factor. player votes should come last, if at all. actually, i don't think player votes is really a good metric for much and particularly not for setting priority of bug fixes in a game because, you know ... players! ... :)

imo it sends the wrong message, bugs are bugs. if a bug is severe it should enter the pipeline immediately, there is nothing to vote. if the pipeline chokes then that's a far bigger problem that an issuer tracker will not solve.
