  • 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.

Lol that seems a bit harsh but completely true Remenents.

I KNOW the only reason $DE is releasing Russia and France and all these new things is
to keep people from leaving. They wouldn't have to worry about losing people if they
just fixed everything. Same with the events. They use them to lure people into buying
premium so they get ultra EXP and to lure in old players again. I wouldn't mind the
glitches as much if $DE would at least TELL US that they realize what's going on instead
of just hiding it.

And also to Claw. How is Remenents supposed to know how to fix this if he hasn't EVER
seen the code. How about I make you fix a car engine blindfolded? That's basically what
you want Rem to do.

I vote more content. Especially for CV's. Enough with the new toys for bb players for a
while.

@ Claw

I dont see why you post anywhere. Everytime I see you post, all you are doing is
flaming someone. One word for you: Troll. If you have nothing useful to say, then
ont say anything.

Oh, and how am I suppose to suggest a "fix" to half this crap? Am I a programmer?
Am I a game designer? No, Im not. I am simply stating problems that have been
around forever and that need the attention of SDE and by people recc'ing this, it will
show SDE that others know about it and want them fixed. Do us all a favor Claw,
next time you want to post some rude comment, go to facebook or something and
do it. Unless you have something useful and helpful for NF, just shut up.

@ Deadeye

Doesnt that drive you nuts though that because of SDEs poor choice of a "hack
buffer" program that your OS dont update themselves now? HS is the worse
program they could have chosen. I would guess at least 80% or NF players think the
samething. I have only saw maybe 2 players post in the forums that they dont mind
it or that they like it and everyone else hates it and complains... yet SDE hasnt
responded, hasnt tried to fix it... actually... they havent done a thing about
ANYTHING since I started playing soon after launch. When are they actually going to
do SOMETHING (ANYTHING) for the players and LISTEN to the players? When we all
quit? When NF is nothing but a hulk of its former glory? When people start to
resume hacking? (Some already have) I just dont understand how a company can
keep afloat when they act the way this one does... I have half a mind to learn how
to make games and then just make my own NavyField type game... would probably
do alot better than these knuckleheads do lol.

I personally have everything in my power set to update manually, because post-HS
it does start locking up when some simple thing like Java/Adobe/Flash etc etc wants
to update. But then again I haven't let my auto updates catch up since I created this
partition for win xp sp3. My Win 7 is updated daily but I don't run NF off of that os.

HS is creating the lag for me that wasn't there before. There are piles of issues with
this game. Fixing what you have before you add more make perfect sense. Recc

> Before HS was implmented = no lag.

For users in general, this is demonstrably wrong, or at the very least tragically
oversimplified.

Hackshield does generate lag though, no argument from me there. But it does so by
interacting with background processes on your PC. If a virus scan fires up or an
auto-update checks something, Hackshield wakes up saying "what was that" and investigates.
This slows your game down. The solution is to turn off unneeded programs and
auto-updates. (I'd leave the virus scanner running, though.)

Firefox and Google are particularly active in the background, and they often leave
updaters and checkers running even when their web browser clients aren't. You can save a
lot of lag by forcing them to only auto-update when your PC first boots up and then
closing themselves down afterward.

This is another reason why I support purchasing one product to keep your PC safe instead
of using 4-5 freeware versions of things. Less processes for hackshield to poke it's nose
into.
