Double XP after rollback and patch mess up?

**Optimus Crime** · 06-02-13, 15:14

theres no need for double exp...i agree with the other post above saying double EXP was a gift not a right...Be happy the game is still being patched and cared for,sure a bug happend.Rollback is needed but also stated above its sorta the players own fault as well for not helping out on the test server to get the bugs to surface there.

Don't take the Thread so serious...

You guys, Seriously?!

The server has been unplayable for two days now... I appriciate the game is free and Zoltan and Alduin are doing there best but Myself and others need our dose of neocrack!

Double XP would be a nice way to say sorry guys we needed more testing on this patch! A lot of the patch bugs were reported in OOC and things when we were in test mode that evening, sadly Zoltan and Alduin were not reading OOC and the patch was released.

Just a little something to say that the patch was too early and let us get back some of the lost time with a bit of double crack would cheer me up

This is not a slanging match, and I assume you were not there so I excuse your ignorance, there were about 50 people online in plaza and Alduin and Zoltan were asking questions. and giving directions to us via OOC

There is a Testserver and a Bug Forum...
How should the Team test the Patch with Live Condition if only a handful of guys wants to join the Testserver?

Sure, you and me and everybody else lost a little bit of Playtime and maybe Progress, but there is no real need for a Compensation. What to do with People who can't play during Double XP? More Double XP Compensation? ^^ There's always somebody who draws the short straw. We will survive a two or three days Test Mode with or without Double XP ^^

If they say... YAY Double XP!! i will be fine ... If not... i will be fine too ^^

Same If they dont give double xp I'm ok with that but time is dragging on and Neocron is still not playable and I'm having withdrawal symptoms!

I dont think you can look at it like that its a never ending cycle! and its silly to even bring up that point, its moot.

I did indeed lose progress, and a few tech trade which is the most annoying part as one was for ATP of cs. None the less, They gave an incentive for people to log onto the test server last time, they could do it again; via increased tech rewards, increased xp, free capped characters on Test server with lots of 5 slot goodies to play around with etc.

I know its difficult for zoltan and I heard rumors that another team is taking over but I do fully support what he is trying to do, I mean for the first time in 10 years I could see people jump!

Anywho I'm done with this thread, I just hope they get it fixed soon so we can get back to playing and ill see you all in game

Wait what, another team taking over? Where have you heard that?

Yeah... It was beatiful, quite emotional even. It was like one of those animal shows where they have this poor dog that has been limping all his life due to abuse and then he is rescued, operated on and taken care of by a new family <sniff>

Somewhere over the rainbow, I think.

Not true, incidentally.

Thanks Nid, was getting worried there for a bit!

**wargolem** · 06-02-13, 18:20

Thanks for that Nidd, there were rumors circulating in OOC that there was going to be a new owner.

**Nidhogg** · 06-02-13, 18:28

When you think about it there's absolutely no good reason for changing direction at this point. We have a team that understands the codebase probably better than at any time since NC was first written, and they're doing it all for free. What's not to love?

Take this patch for example. There are major changes behind the scenes (changes bigger than anything KK ever did post NC2 - including the ill-fated attempt at item tracking) which is why we have some issues to solve, but I know from experience over the decade I've been doing this job that the people solving them today are far more on the ball, and far more dedicated (and communicative!) than at any time during those 10 years.

I'm not having a go at anyone personally here, but it's true to say that the care and support of the game we all love no longer stops at 5PM on Friday afternoon, to name but one example. It's hard to see why anyone would want to alter a situation like that.

**phunqe** · 06-02-13, 18:32

New team and new owner have their separate rumours. I would not replace the team, but a new owner (or partner) with some fresh cash would probably be welcome
