Friday Patch Notes

A couple more changes today, feel free to comment :)
    Update Notes 9/19/03 Client Version 60210.0
  • Fixed an issue that would sometimes cause items to dupe, and could cause minor individual character rollbacks.
  • Changed the surrender skill UI to be easier to use.
  • Changed patterns of one of the bodysuits so that players who have chosen a flesh-colored color for the clothing do not appear to be naked.

enough of the rants

you realize that they have multiple teams going, these fixes are probably done by intern level programmers that are given the easy tasks, I don't think you want the ones who fix/work on the minor bugs to work on the major ones, that would ba a mess in my opinion. I wonder how many people were expecting perfection when they bought the game, I hope not too many. As the game starts to grow and get fixed, the new characters won't even know what we have gone through. If you are truelly pissed off about it, quit and come back in a few months, but I think it is about time for the rants to quit, it is getting boring listening to the same old stuff over and over again.

One thing I've learned in over 10 years (and still not institutionalized yet!!!) of working in Customer Service in the IT field...it doesn't matter what you're actually doing in the background, it's what the customer PERCIEVES is going on that matters! For them, THAT is the reality!
And in this case, SOE has done a poor job of communicating to the customer base. People see the results of the entry-level peons, making changes (not "fixes" since the body suit thing was never actually "broken" in the first place) that seem to be just for the sake of changing things, while some class abilities remain unuseable due to typoes in data tables, along with other majorly broken things...and the perception to the customer is that they're "wasting time" on this little junk while leaving the big problems untouched.
And the customer's PERCEPTION of reality BECOMES the reality...
