I was orchestrating the testing process with the QA department.

what FC/AO got QA, unbelievable.. I bet they do regression tests and when the test is done and red they discuss a little bit, then the tests gets status green and patch is ready for release*fg*

I remember when FwMs had interesting information.

[Tazalanche]

Can someone with Funcom please tell us when is the earliest that the tenth anniversary content will be officially removed?

Thank you very much.

Each and every FwM (lately) seems like a bad copy of my MP QQ.

So basically Stuff Happened (TM), Players Raised Hell, Macrosun Did Some Magic, Broken Stuff Got Fixed. This has now been explained in great detail. People Complain. Rinse & Repeat.

Just wondering if it has been decided not to touch the web site anymore, since not even the "Friday with Means" page have been updated in the past month, you only see the updates here in the forums.

Since large parts of the web site has been neglected for a while anyway I guess it might not matter so much anymore.

Players would kill the Hacker associated with a wave..and somewhere off in the distance a Leet would spawn..

I always laughed at this, because I discovered these "leets" that were necessary for certain events to trigger a while back and the thought crossed my mind that AO servers really do run off of little furry animals.

Every week, some people (I have no doubt the same people every week) want earth shattering news that concerns them personally. Be it the various documents, ballancing information, rock solid details of when the new graphics engine will be finished and online.

These same people don't care a hoot about any news that's not going to impact them (although I bet if it stopped them playing AO for long they'd be up in arms).

I bet it would be much easier for FC to shut down the AO servers and build a new game to take it's place, thereby eradicating the need for running fixes in a game that's 10 years old, that they've been updating for all of those 10 years.
How does that sound? Better, more up to date game where you have to start new? Or this old game that most of us love?

Personally, I'll stick with this game that they're working damn hard on!

Thanks FC.

Players would kill the Hacker associated with a wave..and somewhere off in the distance a Leet would spawn..and be given the same ID as the Hacker previously had. When the city controller would run its periodic check on the Alien status in the city it would quite wrongly assume the new Leet was the Hacker and refuse to send out new aliens.

I for one find this absolutely fascinating, so I'm happy with this FWM.

The most hilarious post i have seen in long time~ I have always had soft spot for leets because they were always the best bang for the buck mob to kill in there lvl range. Example is the supa leets in NLD oasis were equal xp as brontos and a lot easier to kill.

Incorrect. We do not want earth shattering news every week, we want earth shattering news SOMETIME. Even new poor mmos are able to add more content in a week than Funcom can do in a year.

I do not count getting the flu virus, vacations, or whatever else catastrophic event that has prevented Funcom from working this week as being earth shattering.

[spookiepants]

and in this week's update: fixed a bug.

Oh yes, quick, lets apologize for paying a (overblown, btw) monthly fee! How dare we asking for progress or even updates on real progress in exchange!?

I'd offer you a reality check, but I've run out on them...
