In the world of software soon means the following...
a) As soon as we think we have a handle on all the bugs...not nessesarily fixed but we know what they are and how bad they will affect the customer.
Because if the Devs had their way, it would be three months per patch, and there would be a hella lot more bugs fixed.Originally posted by Zarrot
b) As soon as the marketing department conquers the engineering department and forces the product out the door.
Because, as well all know, if the QA's don't scream bloody murder, the customers will.Originally posted by Zarrot
c) As soon as people from QA stop running into the engineering manager's office screaming bloody murder.
Oh wait.
They scream bloody murder about anything.
Because people are complaining on the forums here that it is taking too long for the patch to come out.Originally posted by Zarrot
d) As soon as the engineering manager has beaten the QA manager and support into submission and they have given up arguing that X issue must be fixed before release.

I am glad they are taking their time to bugtest this patch. People will still scream, but I don't want to flip upside down and be trapped under the ground when I do a total IP reset.
But at least that won't happen when I go anonymous now.

If you believe that I have some ocean front property in Kansas to sell you.
Well, soon is what I hope for the next possible Wednesday, don't they always patch mid-week?

Oh right, they don't do anything that is related to the forums here. All of the decisions they make about the game are completely arbitrary.Originally posted by Zarrot

If they release it with a lot of buggs, as usual, very soon.
Otherwise when hell freeze over.
