Okay.
We're working with another company (Smoking Gun Interactive) and are paying them to work on this. They're going to get paid based on this week's patch.
So if there's new problems introduced by the patch I need to know because we can tell them to fix them right away (before we pay them). If I can't find out what they are then we have to pay them and these new issues won't be fixed for awhile.
So please if there are NEW issues with the game since the patch give me a list otherwise it will be months or more before they're addressed because they'll go onto the big list of stuff we're working on rather than the immediate list of things we need to fix with this patch in particular.
Give me a list like this:
- What it's like now (Ie tanks have been replaced with VW Beetles)
- How often this is occurring (all the time / half the time / sometimes)
- What it was like before this week's patch (Tanks were tanks)
- What it was like before the server change (Tanks were tanks)
So far I have:
- Increased lag
- More than before the patch which was already more than on the old servers
- More than on the old servers
- Zero People in chats
- ?% of the time there's 0 people in chats
- ? People in chats before this week's patch
- dozens/100+ people in chats before server move
- Problems Hosting / Joining Game
- ?% of the time
- ? Was this an issue since the server move or is this new since this week's patch?
- No problems hosting a game before the server move
NOTE: If I can't find out what's are NEW issues since THIS WEEK's patch by the end of today then those NEW issues won't be fixed. So please right now only tell me what NEW issues have appeared since this week's patch. Be as clear and specific as you can.
One issue that I noticed is that you cannot see games hosted from people with different mods. On quazal you had the server list and games that were hosted in a different game mod were shown in grey for you.
For example you use vCoH and you can see people hosting modern combat mod/blitzkrieg/EF mod games, but the game is greyed out. When you tried to join the game it would show you "You cannot join. Others: Eastern Front, you: vCoH". It would be nice to see this reintroduced again for steam coh.
Also, skin/soundpacks that worked with vCoH on quazal seem to not work with steam CoH anymore. I don't know why though.
