Please show me all these horrible bugs that break the game.
I must have missed all of them.

Story missions are still bugged here and there, like the hatchery. By bugged i don't mean 'an ickle bit borked' i mean broken, as in 'game breaking' (you cannot get past the mission whatsoever). My ele has been on that story mission for over 3 weeks. it's the equivalent of a player not being able to access WvW at all due to a bug.

It's a good job i'm not playing exclusively for that isn't it?

It'll be updated and fixed as part of the November 15th patch at the latest though. But you can understand, surely, why it would be a major issue for people who are playing for the story.

I hate to break it to ya, but the economy has been pretty bad since long before this bug. And it'd take alot more than fixing this issue to make it better.

That's the point though, why not do a quick fix as it arises so it doesn't get worse.

I dont think most people would be complaining if the Arah event would have been fixed within a week or two after being discovered bugged, but instead it has been over 2 months now and it still is broke.  So when they fix something very minor like dye drops but dont do anything with Arah, well people are going to be upset.

Plus it doesnt help anyone to have another person going off calling people lazy as to why it doesnt work.

Fair point I haven't been everywhere yet so missed this one.Yes something that major does obviously need work.It also imo needs feedback when you hear nothing you wonder where it is on the list.I should have qualified my post with lots of minor bugs are inevitable.Game breaking ones need fixing asap and a notification that its been noticed and is being worked on would be good too.

Saw this post yesterday, immediately bought a gold's worth of unidentified dyes (35).  Now I just have to wait a few weeks and avoid the temptation to open them all, since you know if I did I'd get all commons.

If you have actually payed attention to the post I answered it was from someone playing on my server, that claimed that the event was bugged. I simply stated that it was not the case.

In most cases it IS people that are lazy and dont bother with the events.
Sure there are some servers that might have it bugged for real but for some reason many servers tend shout that it is bugged even if it all comes down to lazyness.

I did not say it clears the bug, I said it resets the event chain so that they should be able to try it again.



I have played necromancer myself. And I have yet to have any problems. Have completed the whole personal story without any help (with exception of the Dungeon of course) and clearly it works well.
I have also done all of the dungeons, several of them with only these "broken" professions.

Oh, maybe they should hire you instead? Since clearly you know exactly how easy it is to fix all these bugs?

Blind devotion is killing this game, just like it did so many others. Instead of looking at the flaws, and then demanding action, people like you are willing to just ignore everything in your blind devotion to anet. That kills games, because for every one of you there are 10 like me that are not blind. We work, we get paid, and then we decide who we want to spend money on. Do you really think after working we are going to sit here and go "hey the game is broke, let me give them more money"?

No, and I will give you an example in action.

As consumers we are going to have to teach them like children. If you do something bad, we punish you. Except instead of no T.V. it's No cash, and we let other gamers know to stay away.

How many times has the hatchery been "fixed"

I couldn't resist the lottery yesterday, and opened 1G worth at just under 4s/ea...I scored both a midnight fire and midnight ice making about 2.5G in the process...

grats. I've managed to get a black, and 3 midnight ice while leveling. Out of the 50 I bought off the tp not a single black/white or any color over a few silver each. My luck sucks on the TP. I should send them to you and get you to open them for me =P
