Can we have small updates a bit more frequent?

Post by Alexey85 »

Can we have fixes for small stuff more frequently? It shouldn't be disruptive to work on a next major update (if there is any), should it? Like small bug fixes, small feature requests implemented? I know it's too much to ask, but obviously this would be very beneficial overall, like creating image that devs actually care that will help attracting new players, etc. This long silence and then a major update with all fixes and new features (is it going to happen sometime actually?) - not good, imo.

Could you add a poll and restart this thread? :) Because you'll get 50x more feedback.
Anyways, I fully agree <3 Some stuff should & can be fixed easily.

It's not too much. On the contrary! It's the only thing you ask and it's very very normal. You are simply interested/conserned with the future of the game you love.

There is always a long silence before a big bang :lol:
A partial cause for their silence is also that as soon as someone of the admins and devs showed up, there was always some kind of endless or silly discussion.
And it is a sign that they are doing something, don't have much time to post.

Updates are more frequent during beta phases or shorty after a bigger update.
Despite the many issues and new feature requests, it is the try to have some stability.
If everyhting would change all the time, players would be confused.

But I would also support more regular updates.
1~2 big updates in a year, and every month all the little fixes...

This is exactly what most of us(?) want :thumbsup:

And good & tested monthly ( or every 2 months ) updates so that we only have to update our servers 1x. And not 4x because of possible hotfixes. I remember that with the last updates I had to update my servers 3-4x in a short period of time and that a lot of servers were unplayable/not up2date.

Small (bug) fixes should always be rolled out fast before they eventually get exploited or ruin the game experience -> once a month or something around that.
For bigger additions to the game, new features gameplay-wise, etc. the devs should obviously take their time until they are satisfied with their work and everything turns out to be working stable enough for a public rollout. The current silence is weird on the one side but it also shows that Nadeo is working hard on new stuff (as TMarc already pointed out). Looking forward to future updates whatsoever.
