Poll:Should funcom roll back the official servers?

Imagine putting half a year of work into an update just to be told by your players to literally undo the changes.

Weekend vs years of collecting very rare thralls :thinking:

Either way people lose.

Once I clear it I may start a few polls now that I know how to do it.

When this was announced quite a few Private admins said they were turning it off.

Yes and no. I didnā€™t have to build bigger because I took out my bar and turn the area in to a bunk house. But I had to take thrall out of my transtone bases because I have no room for a well and thrall pot. I usually have a dancer, cook, armorer, smith, and bearer at each transtone base.

Kind of glad I already laid them off.

But funcom not thinking anything through is why funcom is a verb.
ā€œman they really funcomed thatā€. Tell me you donā€™t know what I mean.

They should have added a kettle; small thrall pot, and large water skin; that you or sorcerers can refill. Something with the foot print of a drying rack.

Oh we have been all over this I sort of agree. Iā€™d like to see a few more mid level dungeons mostly because you have to farm to use keys. Iā€™d like to see a big rework of the jungle area; with all the ruins a few hidden basement [not full dungeons] Iā€™ve wonder why there are no looter camps in the ruins.

Wish I could make throwing dagger, I can do various hatchets/hand axes, but the only daggers I know of are the legendary.

Imagine putting in half a year on an update very damn few players were interested in.

That time could have been spent fixing the bugs they introduced in the April update. If they can be fixed.

I think if the 6 months of work actually was well done, without being this buggy mess, and had more polish to the system, it would have been well received. But Funcom has a really bad habit of introducing systems that are half-baked with the promise theyā€™ll be updated later:

  • Sorcery - no new updates, just indirect nerfs
  • Tavern system - no new patrons, no quests as promised
  • Pets - theyā€™ve been straight up forgotten

I fear thatā€™s where Living Settlements are headed. They tried to get the bare bones of it done but it wasnā€™t ready and is way too broken to be released so itā€™s probably just going to be left to catch dust when they decide on some other new shiny idea to focus their efforts.

In total agreement with youā€¦
You can literally make a list twice as long with stuff nobody wanted, but got introduced anyway.

  • Combat/stamina reworked
  • weapons reworked
  • Monster stats reworked
  • Stats and attributes reworked
  • executions, started out as mostly buggy and not working. Now works in the most unwanted moments
  • bazar
  • Battlepass, not even Funcom wanted it in the end
  • Dyebench and dyeing

*edit: Invevntory UI, sorting bug still not fixed! Thx Heaven13

Donā€™t forget the inventory UI (which is still broken af) and loot overhaul which completely trivializes survival/crafting/excitement of finding good loot when I get perfected padding in basic exile chests.

yeah i am still amazed of so few people reacting when what is the backbone of a survival game, inventory, is bugged for now 6 months.

even in early access it was possible to trust your inventory

We had to move the thrall out of interact with anything range. The emote then stuck and we moved them back.

I canā€™t in good conscience weigh in on this either way. On the one hand Iā€™ve had zero issues with crafter thralls on a lightly populated private server. On the other Iā€™ve done absolutely nothing on officials so a rollback would not affect me at all.

I would speculate that server load might have bearing on the amount of issues.

This completely useless post brought to you by Raeil Inc. Providing the community with useless posts since 1886.

ā€œSticking toā€ a launched update that is fundamentally broken in almost every way is not useful or productive. I have voted that they should roll back the patch and disable Living Settlements. But honestly - I imagine that might cause them more problems than their ā€œfail forwardā€ approach, development-wise.

Regardless of what I want or think as a player - I donā€™t expect that the results of this poll will be considered by Funcom as their usual momentum and SOP is to fail forward.

Rollback vs RNG is what it isā€¦ dragging us all down to gambling.
