  • Stop adding content and fix the current problems

    03. 21. 2011 16:14

Remenents
I have saw this in posts all over the forums and thought I would add it here as well.

Please, stop adding content and fix the overwhelming issues NF already has. I can
think of tons of bugs and glitches that have plagued NF since its launch, and still
nothing has been done about them. Instead, more and more content is added... and
most of the time, the content hasnt been tested properly. For example, take the SN
nation that was added. The sprites have all kinds of issues and all SDE does is give
us a way to manually patch to fix it or tells us to uninstall and reinstall the game. I
say, to hell with that. SDE caused these issues with piss poor testing and coding, I
say they need to fix it in the patch. As to uninstalling the game, if I do this, I damn
sure will not reinstall it... at least not until all the problems are fixed or at least
ADDRESSED by a REAL SDE person, not some forum mod or the like.

If anyone knows any bugs, just post them here and a bit of information on it and
then reccomend this thread... though I fear anything will ever be done about it... I
will start:

Zoom Bug: This bug has been around since its launch. There are different ways this
bug can come about, but the way I usually see it happen is minimizing the game
during its loading.

- FIXED - SN Gun Sprites: This glitch shows some of the SN ships with no guns, when
in fact they have weapons. I for one have tried this "manual fix" with no effect
whatsoever. Reinstalling the game is just a stupid way to fix a problem that can be
solved with a simple patch. - FIXED -

Lagginess: Many will agree this is caused from Hackshield, and I will agree. If we
must deal with Hackshield in order to play, thats fine, but at least fix it so it isnt SO
laggy and people crash left and right.

Battleroom Bugs: I have noticed, as of lately, many rooms get bugged. There max
players they can have is 64, but they will have 65 or 66 players, effectively bugging
the room and not allowing the host to split and go. This, I belive, is just MORE poor
coding and should be an easy fix.

Post all the bugs you know of and what they do and try not to post duplicate bugs
unless you have more information on a particular one.

Thanks all.

EDIT: ALL NEW BUGS POSTED FROM OTHERS OR NOTICED FROM MYSELF WILL BE
POSTED BELOW HERE.

Red Planes Glitch: Sometimes when planes are launched, they are red, like they are
out of fuel. Doesnt cause problems really, just annoying to see.

Adding/Removing Sailors from ship: Sometimes its shows sailors loaded/unloaded
but they havent. They are really still on ship or in shipyard.

Sailors not getting exp, even Prem: Now and again, particularly when remodeling a
ship, sailors NOT on the ship will not get exp unless you remove them and replace
them back on the ship after the remodel.

Public forum. Almost anyone can read and reply. Make me. Again, WHY ARE YOU SO
IGNORANT. Like I just said, it DOESN'T mean specifically Facebook. I think it's stupid too.
And think for a second, MANY others have these issues, too. Stop trolling here. Get a
few years older and maybe you will think that you aren't the only person here.

@Remenents
I thought of another glitch. Sometimes when I launch planes there is one or two that
are red from launch and it's just weird to see 1 red plane in a squad of 4.

@snow
Yes I know it isn't always intentional, yet way too often it is.

koala44202, sometimes it isn't flag's d/cing on their own to avoid it.

There are sometimes where I will randomly crash as flag... sometimes after enemy
flag is sunk. I think it can go along with the phantom crash that i explained in my
post above.

Now i'm not saying people don't d/c on perpose to avoid being flag... I know it
happens... But im just saying, sometimes it's not always the case... It can just be
the random phantom crashes that cv's get. (like when retreating as stated in my
post above)

Oberstgruppe, If you where "pointing out a problem" in a suggestion tread... then
you arent suggesting anything. you are just ranting, or not suggesting anything at
all. If you wish to point out a problem, you must put it in the general fourm.

Now if you wish to suggest a way to FIX said problem... then that belongs in the
suggestion fourm. BUT!!!!! you have to be logical about it, and give supporting
details and give a well thought out way to fix it... not just "Oh... this is wrong... fix
it".

*So don't get any ideas about saying that I said since it's a suggestion, it can be
suggested. Because if it is not a well thought out idea, and is just stupid rambling....
it is not a suggestion. (This is a loose idea, i didnt put too much thought into it, so
dont try to call me on it lol)

I do agree with this... there are many bugs that should have been fixed a long time
ago.

Regarding Hackshield though... I myself get no lag from it. The lag is usually due to
either internet or your computer. I can see how hackshield can cause some lag on
lower grade computers.

But on the sailor load glitch... yeah i hate it, and it shouldn't happen. What it is, is a
glitch in the loading of the sailor. It shows them on the ship, but really they are on
the dock. There is a similar glitch on taking the sailor's off the ship. If you doubble
click the sailor, sometimes it glitches, and doesnt come off. It will show in the dock,
but it is blacked out. To fix, you just pick the blacked out sailor up.

There is also a glitch when filling the recruits on a sailor. where it seems to freeze
up, and you get an error message about an "error on controling sailor". This also
should not happen. It is clearly something with SDE, or the server connection to your
computer. (I do have a good computer, so it's either SDE, or my internet providor)

But on another note... SDE won't fix any of these problems... Or if they do... it will
take a few years. This is shown in their costomer support. Generally it takes 2 hours
or more for someone to look at any support ticket.... That is, if it's an SDE member,
and not say... a TNF member, or fourm mod.

As for SDE adding new content... The reason why they do this, is to attract new
players, attract old players back, and to keep the current players happy with the
game. There is only so much they can do. You have to remember.... Their source of
income is limited to how much money players give them by buying items from the NF
store. If people don't buy enough items.... SDE doesn't make much money... and
therefor cannot fix these simple glitches. It also means the more time they beta test
say... a nation.... the less money they get.

Addition:
After reading about the virus scans starting up randomly... If your having troubble
with your virus scanner doing this... get McAfee... It will auto- pause whenever you
run NF, or get into a room in NF. (or atleast it does this on my computer... It will only
continue if I tell it to while im playing) But, I tell my virus scan to continue, because it
has absolutly no effect on my game play whatsoever. HS doesn't have an effect on
my game play either. *This is because I have a good computer with a 4 core
processor, 16GB of RAM, and a 750GB HDD.

BUT! One glitch I have noticed is that at random points in time... I will crash for no
reason.... This only happens once after starting NF up for the first time too... After
that crash, it will no longer crash that day. So I think that there is some glitch that is
causing this.... and after you crash, it corrects it... for that day. (But that is
speculation.)
One thing I have noticed, if your a CV, you will crash sometimes if you retreat... This
is also true for some other class ships... But it happens most often to CV players. (I
have witnessed this in fleet league matches, where we had to retreat, and our cv
player would crash. I have also witnessed this myself when retreating)

Half the things you just said don't mean s*** Claw. OMG YOU DON'T HAVE A FACEBOOK.
Rem didn't mean specifically FB. He meant if you want to troll, go somewhere else. You
did nothing to help this post in anyway and should really stop posting.

@ Baker, the flagship crashing thing doesn't seem like a glitch. I see, probably way too
often, the flag DCs on his/her own so he/she doesn't have to be flag (mainly because
they tend to get double rage). It doesn't seem to me like flags actually crash more than
others, they just DC more.

>play nf on terrible 2006 laptop
>never lag

"Zoom Bug:"

Most games don't load when minimized so really it's a minor tradeoff

"SN Gun Sprites:"

Not really that big of a deal it's a one time fix not something you need to do every time

"Lagginess:"

see above quote
Also most lag is caused clientside, playing nf on a terrible comp in HA I still rarely
have problems

"Battleroom Bugs:"

I've never heard of this one

I'm surprised this hasn't been blocked. When i brought out a poblem, they
imediatedly Blocked, they didn't want others to read it. said i was ranting when all i
did was point out a provblem. If you go against their oppion "watch out". yes they
do need to fix alot of things. PS: I'll never post anything again.
