MindArk and the Planet Partners strive to ensure a smooth and problem-free Version Update. Nevertheless, even after extensive testing some issues may arise after release. Such issues are often addressed via mini-patches directly after a release and in subsequent patches. If you feel that the possibility of encountering minor issues or bugs directly after a Version Update affects your gameplay to an extent that Entropia Universe is not enjoyable, please wait until the mini-patches have been released and any last minute issues have been resolved.

And while you are at hitboxes, can you fix hitboxes for other mobs too? The list of broken hitboxes is pretty big and in general, list of bugs that we just got used to. Some of these require just a little dev time and are in game for many years. How about getting a junior on them? Or AI?

I don’t know where in the release notes I missed it and when exactly it was changed, but THIS -

https://account.entropiauniverse.com/account/inventory/changes

is super duper nice, thank you! I had used a self-made inventory diff tool for quite a while and got halfway through developing it into a proper browser plugin, but having it built-in at the source is of course much, much better.

Cheers to the dev team and whoever motivated building this feature.

:cheer: ?

This one is also false. Can be removed from the list. Is this a joke?

8

I really get this impression from some time and now I think is true, that they don’t check actually if those changes works.

9

Why would they even do that… We play anyway… there’s no consequence if they screw up.

10

This one is also false.

11

Yes. Players stop playing and it shows. And now how many players don’t even write here on forum that something is wrong and changes didn’t even appeared.
in my opinion they always should test it before release it.
the feedback threads are simply left alone here.
If you don’t point it on forum you don’t get any help- see supports about 2fa.

@Ludvig|MindArk
Those links are still broken in the release notes, but they work fine in the downtime-for-patch messages. Please look into this.

13

OMG!

what a game changer i was completely unaware. thank you so much! where was it originally announced?

14

Great catch and well done MA. ?

15

There’s consequence, long term one. If enough screw ups, people will play less and less and eventually won’t play at all when they have had enough. I have noticed a change in you for a while now, and some others who used to be mostly positive on this forum. That too is a consequence from their amount of screw ups. You guys are trying to hold them more accountable compared to in the past. (y)

Good way to show them we aren’t going to just accept the same BS screw ups over and over again, just because they lacking in competence to test things properly before live…

If they can’t fix a simple mob density spawn increase and improving a mob’s hit box, how the heck they gonna do the UE5 update..
They need to start hiring better testers, but we’ve been beta testing this game and paying for it since the beginning.

I don’t even know what’s more insulting for the community, us having to be the testers, on our own money or having close to 0 support, with months and months old cases across the board…

We’re talking about EU’s problem with retention for so long while MA is actively screwing up the loyal playerbase, decimating the active population especially the most actives ones. All top societies have lost a lot of active memebers, just look at top 100 players all time and try to see how many have dropped in the last 3 years… do we all have to stop for them to get a hint that things are not ok and they shoudl be lookign at their stuff closely where things actually hurt the community? Game simply can’t grow only with sweaters and oilriggers, people don’t feel like advancing if there’s nothing incentivising them to move up… any investment gets destroyed quickly, skilling up for a broken PVP with bugs a decade old, with exploits that are never looked into, we are fucking tired of reporting them, people at MA don’t even understand the death bug that’s in the game for what, 10-15 years? Nothing is ever done or addressed but instead we get PR bragging about shitty AI and I have to waste 15 minute because I can’t get the NPC to hand out a damn mission because they’re either out of tokens or just fully bugged… add a damn skip button until you get this right, it’s outrageous already

For me it’s very insulting their lack of care year after year, the support system been too neglected and they aren’t prioritizing one of the most important systems in place, especially in a RCE.

They have been taking us for granted for years by not taking better care in their testing, because they know some people will still play and pay and bug test for them.

They have given excuses in the past that the engine is old and they have synch issues when merging with live servers, but it feels like it can also be incompetence, not knowing what they are doing and hope it goes well. Either way when something doesn’t work over time, logic dictates you should probably do something about it, to improve it.

@Ludvig|MindArk when a high cycler longtime player who used to be one of MA number one public positive players like this starts showing his honest frustrations like this publicly, logic would dictate that it’s time to act, at least by human business logic.

You guys do tend to ignore such feedback, and hope it goes away which it usually do, but all that does is make us even more frustrated, by ignoring stuff like this you are actually showing that you are either afraid of the backlash if you reply, or you simply don’t care.

In both cases it can mean a loss of another long time player. Even if right now you’re not able to truly do anything, just the fact that you can acknowledge it, and will try to improve, could be enough to hold some people for now until you can do something about it.

I hope you guys take this and others feedback to heart and start listening and showing us with your actions for the good of the future of this game.

We all love Entropia and see its potential but there’s a lot of us that are kinda fed up at this point.

I’m cautiously trying to be optimistically positive for the future, so I’m looking forward to the voting system and how it will affect the new changes coming into the game.

Time will tell.

I’m pretty sure the potential ship set sail a long, long time ago. I see this over and over on here. People, this game is twenty plus years old! It has ZERO potential. Potential is for new games that have some flaws but could be improved upon in the NEAR future. This game has shown it’s stripes, it’s simply time to move on.

I don’t regret my time in Entropia, and will still play from time to time, check in on my flea-ridden shares and such, but depo again? Nope.

… but you forgot to consider auction sales and take these out of the equation. Now, when an auction gets sold during a hunt I want to track, the sold items count as losses.

And while we’re at it, can you make mounted enhancers visible in the inventory, please? This would then also include broken enhancers in the diff automatically.

Oh wow, Eve finally is seeing the truth, much like other big players. Finally, hallefuckinglujah ! Truth is, MA has not been giving a fuck since long time ago, and I have a feeling they will not start giving a fuck again any time soon, just the lack in UE5 updates is screaming out “we give up” more than anything else. GL out there.
