Is Cb really ready?
« on: December 24, 2004, 07:29:46 pm »
Hello,

I have been trying to play CB for 2 hours and in 2 hours I had over 10 crash. The character creation isnt complete and fully functionnal ; we cannot choose some race or gender because they aren\'t ready. I know that the devs are busy but when a version isn\'t ready do not put it online.

We all know that it\'s an alpha but in an alpha version the game should be able to run without crash and here I know of what I am talking because I am currently studying at the University for a bac in Computer Programmation.

The graphics, the map and all ingame are very good I do have nothing to say against it! The game is very good except for the bug! Please devs correct as soon as you can the bug and come back to us. We are all very happy that the game is out for XMas but when you\'ll have time fix it all up ;)

And btw devs the work u did as I said is very good!

Yup,it really needs some tweaking devs.
I just got dropped like 6 times ,2 times because of an error in ps,and 4 times because of linkdead.

I agree with thormor,the graphics and the rest is good,but please.....the errors they\'re killing me.

The thing least tested is the char creation.
If you get crashes, consider using the predefined paths

Also, those dumps you are saving (because you are right?), are actually worth gold since we can pinpoint the exact location of the bug with those.

If  you want it solved, please post the dumps

OK you understand that this is an alpha release right, I mean you said you did, and since you obviously must know what you are doing since you are learning how to become a programmer then you should understand what that means and what that entails.
Many many times when you release something at this state there will be bugs that are not found in testing. When you test in a smaller amount of scenarios there are things that will happen that you just don\'t foresee. That is what alpha releases and beta releases are for. You get a larger group testing, and finding bugs for you, so you can fix them. At least give them some time to get all the information as to what is happening and why and I am sure they will address it.

To answer Androgos : Yeah to create a fast character we can use the Path way but for exemple if you want to be a healer, architect or something like that you need to choose the long way... and with the long way you often have to redo it over and over because of a link dead (but that\'s almost normal!).

And ok I\'ll post the dumps but please could you tell me where they are ?  :P  coz I\'m suppose to have 3 or 4 logs coz I only agree for 3-4 log to be saved.

to @Boldstorm : When I release an MMSTG for a final semester project a lot of bug appeared and it\'s normal I agree but when you know that problems will appear do not put it online for the public! coz 500 person on a server make it laggy and to solve problems is harder :P I just  return to CB and I found out that you changed some place of the city lol nice! And for HUD it\'s very good anyway when I\'ll have bug I\'ll post it be asured!
