Online Play

It's been almost 2 weeks since barmyarmy reported the major bug to them. It doesn't seem like very difficult to reproduce bug from the number of reports posted here which includes people located in UK too where the game has officially been released.

I have a feeling they are not going to fix it before Aussie release i.e. if they are able to find the bug !

I agree with you. It feels like we were the beta testers for the game before they sell it to Aus, NZ etc. through retailers.

If they had sold it to Aus and NZ etc retailers straight away, there would be far more complaints and would be forced to fix the online fix as quickly asap (A good example is what happened with AC09 when it sold worldwide at the same time.)

The developers must have known about the online boundary bug before they sold it in the UK and made all of us spend our money on a broken game. They couldn't have missed that bug when they were tested the game themselves.

Thank God I have Modern Warfare 2 & Battlefield BC2 to keep me happy for the meantime.

Unfortunately, in my experience, these things are never quick. Developers always seem to go to ground for the first 6 weeks after release. Would say they are all on holiday but have seen some browsing this forum...

[barmyarmy]

Just recently, Kane & Lynch 2 came out. They were suffering from bad frame rates and laggy online gameplay. One of the reviewers (Giant Bomb) contacted the developer and they are already working on a patch to fix all errors.

Here's the review:

It's been months since Trickstar Games have not responded to the online boundary bug ever since launch of IC2010.

Will we get a fix when the Australian version comes out?

 

[Dhekelian]

Just an idea but could someone do a standard letter outlining the problems in the game and the addresses of Codemasters and Tickstar and we could all send it to them.

surely if they felt there Aussie release was under threat they would commit to a patch?

 

[pcfan123]

We already tried something similar. A standard email that many people sent. Its all an exercise in futility. If they want to fix it, they will do so on their own accord, not as a result of some empty threats from a few hundred people on a forum.

 

[Dhekelian]

I never suggested threats or being abusive for that matter as that will get you nowhere, I meant just pointing out the errors but if it has already been tried there is little point.

I relly hope they are working on something and not just another company like EA who have taken the money and do not care.

Seriously does anyone play this game online? I can never find a game, ranked or unranked. This is extremely frustrating.
