This bug has been fixed like 3 months later, however it’s been worked on silently.
So bugs that are being addressed are worked on apparently after all.
Which leads to my question: Why does the staff not communicate with its community at all if you’re reading the reports anyway? Like a simple “acknowledged” post or whatever.
This is pretty bad PR and especially unnecessary considering the fact that things seem to not get ignored after all.
You are all toxic… if they touch this forum there is a chance they might be seriously injured or die. Be kind… let them live long happy lives…
To enhance your inner peace I will now read from the book of Diablo2.
Andariel Chapter1 verse 3
“And i looked upon the forums and saw that they were toxic, the trolling and self righteous indignation was virulent. It was good.”
Let’s be honest…if they responded people would pile on…troll…ask more…criticism ect…like taking gum out in the class room.
Short version: people would be stupid a holes and abuse it or harass.
It would result in the whole forum being banned in 3 hours if they had to actually moderate this place per the rules they have outlined. Its good how it is, leave this as the whine and moan forum.
Wicked seems to be of my ilk. Someone that understands that the best of intentions usually has disastrous results.
People always like to inflate their ego with this incredulous notion that no one has thought of their idea before.
When in reality, in most cases, this idea has been dissected in a manner so vigorously repetitious, there’s no way to know that your wonderful idea is in practice, a steaming pile of excrement.
There used to be active “community managers” in every forum. Than Activision merged with Blizzard and everything spiraled down to our current predicament.
I think they should just make a sticky post with acknowledged bugs listed.
Title - Short description - Status - Goal
Auras not working properly - When you eq items with auras they are not always turned on - We know it - Will be fixed in upcoming patch
Classic stash - D2R classic requests the shared stash - We don’t care - Won’t be implemented.
My post wasnt really meant to go into the direction of silencing players and idk where that comes from really. all i want is more communication for things that ARE already being addressed. Because doing what the community wants but doing it behind closed bars is unreasonable.
Like if you fix whats broken, why is it too hard to give notice that you’re working on it?
My aura glitch thread grew quite big i dare to say the biggest one of this kind of glitch(post other links if im wrong), and apparently it got to the eyes of the devs. However as per requests from users within this thread to give acknowledgement, nothing happend from Blizzards side for the entire time being. It only became clear that they worked on it in the patch notes for 2.14.
If it is too hard to give notice in individual threads, then they could use a general public roadmap.
Instead they deleted threads that were complaining about being ignored, instead of simply saying “you’re not being ignored”. No its too damn hard to say “we work on it”. instead they pay people to delete complainment threads.
I’m not trolling. Don’t get me wrong, but why do you want an employee to respond to a bug thread?
If you’ve reported a bug and it’s been fixed, then it’s clear that your thread has been read and that’s great. There’s no need for something like “thanks a lot for sharing this bug with us. We’ll fix it as soon as possible”. Imagine if Blizzard had to respond to all bug threads.
It’s like you want merit for the bug being fixed. You reported the bug because you love the game, not because you want to be recognized by Blizzard.
