Why Do You "Archive" Unfixed Bugs???

I thought that was a bug to, but one day, I was in the camera view, and popped a limpet. The cargo hatch actually closes before the limpet comes out. I chalked that up to the game realizing it were closed, speeds up the ship, and after the limpet comes out, the cargo hatch opens again, slowing the ship.
Like you said on Twitter, I love this game - otherwise I would have moved on months ago. It's to Frontier's credit that it stirs passionate discourse. Now if only they could change the "temperature" of that passion from
to [heart] then everyone will be happy, LOL.
The problem is we never hear anything about the bugs after reporting.
I have the same problem: https://forums.frontier.co.uk/showt...s-is-it-a-waste-of-time?p=6821836#post6821836
And every update I start the game and still see the old bugs ... some are so obvious. I mean there's no content update for how long? Two ships. I don't know the amount of the team working on the bugs or even in complete development - but honestly I don't think they are many.

Thats all fine and dandy however, many issues are not added to the known issues....
I just looked at that "Known Issues" list.... [redacted]
It's like they are not even trying anymore.
You want a real list of "known issues" - do set subtraction of the patch notes from the archived bugs. You'll get a list that goes on and on and on.
Oh, and then do set addition using the new and shiny bug reports for 3.1 [blah]

+1, +Rep to you!!
Also worth remembering that the three "Known Issues" lists (PC, XBOX and PS4) are actually the exact same list, mentioning issues that happen regardless of platform.
So officially, there are no platform-specific bugs.
Problem solved!

I think the SRV bug is known to happen on Xbox as well as PS4, no idea about PC?
Quick, fill me in, before it gets squished! that's the exact type of bug FD is likely to fix right now!
Z...
And yet here's what QA-Mitch says about one of the most game-breaking bugs in ED since 3.0 dropped:
This implies this bug investigation was indeed closed, because one doesn't reopen something that's already open.
I'll stop now before I type something I regret....
It does wind me up seeing some of the bugs this game has either remaining or old bugs cropping up again. Crackling sound for one! And not being able to navigate after re-entering my ship in the SRV because the highlighter vanishes from the panel and tab switching won't work as it is unresponsive. Wingman target select or nav lock not working even when beacon's on. Forced restarts etc.
I can appreciate bugs being an issue that takes time to investigate and fix, but some of the updates have screamed "We don't care", as you put it, at least not where testing and observing the product properly prior to releasing the updates are concerned - here's looking at the AI bug with instant killing full auto rapid fire plasma etc and missions that are broken etc.
For the most part, the game works, although I do worry that we won't ever be seeing complex updates to the game without bugs galore when old ones keep rearing their old ugly heads.

It's saddening to read that someone from QA can't give definitive answers to legitimate questions. That makes you wonder how poorly their internal communication is. Btw Frontier... Didn't you also claim you followed up on combat logging reports from players? How did that work out? You think players forget? Your credibility is gone as far as I'm concerned. Fool me once, shame on me. Fool me twice, shame on you!
And the PS4 headlook bug was PS4 specific for PS4 reasons.(PS4 Headlook is controlled by the Six Axis motion controls in the DS4, You just tilt your controller to look around, the bug was that the game wasnt resgestering the imputs properly)

Yeh, that was in the known issues.

I want to be able to comment or add to existing bug reports that are not yet fixed. It is impossible to do so at the moment without having to report and rewrite the bug report. +1
