Dirty Bomb - Dev Stream 2016/08/01 - Summer Squash bug list

Preface: Exedore says they plan on fixing ALL map bugs in a big mega patch. Since most maps share models, textures, etc.. it's better to patch them together and same patch size.

"It's doable" - [SD] Exedore

Exedore explain how they rate bugs, these bug types include:

[A] Show stopper: Stops players from playing the game (ex. failing to join rank server)

[B] Major: Collision+visual bugs, normally classified as anything that is very annoying (ex. Aura stations)

[C] Minor: Non-critical visual bugs which do not effect game-play or anything at all (ex. Character models mesh clipping)

"Should" be fixed in first "Summer Squash Patch 1", not the one coming this week:

  • Aura Health Station glow
  • Server crashing and players dropping because of random players in lobby
  • People not getting into lobby (Casual & Ranked)
  • "Milk jugs" (carryables like EMP, Virus, etc..) not being dropped (duplicating carryables)
  • Chat box cutting off long text
  • Rework of C4, no more instant plant or multiple C4 plant (Hopefully)
  • Inconsistent rules in stopwatch
  • Lobby chat not working within final second of game start
  • Thread sync on by default
  • Sticky bombs (and Nader) not dispersing Molotov fire
  • Team chat in Casual and Ranked matchmaking
  • And more!

Maybe fixed?

  • Servers saying they are full but not really (considered a "legendary bug fix")

Planned to fix:

  • Fixed train carriage collision bug in OBJ_Trainyard
  • [OBJ_Bridge] Getting ammo from inside Bridge building near first objective (coming in major map fix)

Train carriage collision issue won't be in the first update, but a later one with other map fixes. Also 'Major' bugs also include collision issues

Apart from that, it's all good :)

Oops! I was really hoping for the Trainyard fix that I think I made myself believe that I heard you say it was coming in the first patch. Thank you for the corrections <3

Sticky bombs (and Nader) not dispersing Molotov fire

I hope this includes smoke grenades. The odds seem to be 50/50 on wether the molotov gets instantly deleted or I provide the Stoker a double kill because I just made his molotov invisible.

No smoke without fire

The fact that they still have not fixed it is pretty huge

I find Arty's/Kira's targeting way more frustrating than the above mentioned bugs.

That one unfortunately is significantly more complicated, but it's indeed on our hit list.

Are we talking 3 months? 6 months?

The real question is if it's doable why hasn't it been an ongoing process of fixing things like a beta is supposed to be? The admission that they didn't really give a fuck about fixing things perviously speaks way louder than the promises being made at this point in time. Also, both of the last updates have broken more things or not fixed things they claimed to yet now we're expected to believe every single bug in the game can be successfully fixed in one single patch? It's like they're trying to insult our intelligence since they know we're dumb enough to keep playing.

They are from what I know, a rather small studio. It is probably why they can not focus on many things at once, such as making new content and fixing old one at the same time. It is kind of a dillema, if you try to fix old content, people will complain about no new one, and if you try to make new one, people will be complaining about broken old content.

What about the throwable bug? 2/5 Stickies dont leave fletchers hand 1/10 Airstrikes, 2/10 Ammo Packs, aso...

not crucial for most mercs, but fletcher is usually fucked when a perfect direct stick cant save his ass
