What? It's Saturday and No Update!

[Caydran]

I would have expected FDev to work through the weekend (no holiday in the U.K.), releasing an update each day until this mess gets fixed.

Was this mess the result of a year of working remotely from home?

 

[Factabulous]

In that case you are very silly ...

There might be an update on the news. Have you checked?

 

[The Roofus]

Bank Holiday weekend mate, no-one works if they can help it. See you on Tuesday

 

[Gleitfrosch]

the update was two days ago and I am sure they will release a patch everytime enough things have been fixed to justify a rollout.
Also please consider the more complicated a problem is, the longer it takes to fix it.

I checked, but all I could find was something about someone called "Dom".

Not Etienne Dom? Stealing children again was he...?!

Strangely, like most other people, they have lives and families and they are entitled to spend time with them rather than pandering to whiny children...

LOL - dude.... they aren't going to work 7 days a week for the next 6-12 months.

I bet the FD employees are all dying to work overtime for the people in this forum...

They released 3 hotfixes in 6 days, then a full "update 1" in the 8th day after launch

Guess we are lucky if we get a weekly patch from now on... most probably fortnightly

I'm in for any FDev bashing but i'm not a monster, let the developers enjoy their weekend.

It is the Saturday of a Bank Holiday weekend in the UK. So you are wrong there.

They released a major patch two days ago.

I am hoping that we get updates beyond hotfixes no sooner than every week so that there is a chance for them to read what they have typed and fix the less subtle typos and coding errors.

I sent my bloody family out to t’mill. Had at least an hour to sellotape two tellys to me ‘ead afore they return. Bloody forgot to update the bleeding box head pc. Just got the beggar fired up then they return. Like a dose of the runs. Bloody Braben. Tis his fault the soft southern Jessie.

 

[devilronin]

how dare they work round the clock for 5 days giving us many fixes.. and possibly some bugs. and have the audacity to take a breather for 2 days, leading to better productivity for 5 days, how dare they, .... or something like that, they have a life outside of fdev too, heres to 2 days without gamebreaking issues, and the few minor issues strewn about, hope they turn on frontline DS next week, having to drive myself there in 1 of 20 ships is too hard

 

[VR micmacmoc]

Hey it’s bank holiday weekend. I’m fishing tomorrow.

 

[Crank Larson]

Looks like a hit and run to me...

Bloody Braben. Tis his fault the soft southern Jessie.

I think he's from Nottingham originally - north of the Watford Gap - that makes him one of yours

Ok, but please distinguish "complexity" and "severity".
