Joma126 0 Posted June 25, 2019 It would be soo very considerate and kind to advise WHEN 1.04 will go to stable !!! Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
drgullen 596 Posted June 25, 2019 Well, they've released three versions of 1.04 so far and some of the bugs they said were fixed are still there, so they've got some bug-squashing yet to do with this patch before we go to stable. If you look at 1.02 -- it first went to Exp on March 25 and went to stable on April 3. 1.03 first went to Exp on May 10 and went to stable on May 27. If this pattern continues, it'll probably be sometime in early July before it goes to stable, but in reality, it'll go only when it's ready to go and it's clearly not quite ready yet. I think it's hard for them to advise when it'll be stable when they don't know for sure themselves. With any luck, we'll get another exp patch either Wednesday and/or Thursday and if it solves most of the current issues in this patch, perhaps we luck out a get a stable update on Friday. I wouldn't bet on it though -- I'd bet next week sometime. 1 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
ThePugman 280 Posted June 26, 2019 Personally I think it’s close. The menu overlay bug is the only major one I can see now. When that’s fixed it’ll be ready. 20 minute smoke grenades, I can live with. Although maybe the servers can’t. Seems to be a few crashes too, but that’s typical for expy, right?

TheRealLeetbus 1 Posted June 26, 2019 Is it just me or is at re-occurring theme that the bugs are fixed in experimental, then another update to the exp version happens and the fixed bugs are back? what is causing this, are versions being rolled back by accident?

Well, I've been called a fanboy and a cheerleader on here, but I'm not against criticizing as well and I really don't understand how we can be three iterations of 1.04 in at this point and there are still "menu showing in-game" issues. It kind of makes you wonder if anyone at Bohemia is actually playing the game as a test before posting a patch -- certainly doesn't seem like it, otherwise you'd think they'd have noticed that issue and fixed it before posting 1.04 in the first place. So yeah, it's not just you. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

I personally would have tried to time the stable release for the server maintenance every wednesday . ... The exp release for the weekend makes sense 1.05 EXP for Aug 2? Their process has been speeding up . . . Its in their interest to get Xbox and PS4 to a good level soon. . The Scarlett and PS5 hardware release next year (Oct to Dec 2020) will be really transformative for the games consoles though Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

So yeah, it's not just you. I guess the fix is a hard one. The bug was ‘assigned’ on Monday morning, so may just take a few days. I doubt the devs run into it that often because of how the bug occurs. After server restarts usually. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Fair enough, but my point is we've had issues in the past where a new patch produces unexpected glitches in similar situations regarding the menu or appearance of the game -- you would think testing how the game reacts after a server crash/restart would be a standard test prior to releasing a patch at this point, but apparently not. 1 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Why the hell even have an Experimental branch if this is the way you're going to do business? I don't get it -- the lack of QA going on here is baffling to me.

TheRealLeetbus 1 Posted July 3, 2019 (edited) Yeah, since the game is 1.0 and beyond and no longer early access, it should not be up to us players to do all of the testing, or it is simply still in early access.. at least in the stable patches, experimental is different Edited July 3, 2019 by TheRealLeetbus Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
rickyriot 1009 Posted July 3, 2019 (edited) For me the latest update has every zombie stuck/clipping. Could be a fence, could be a tree, one time it was inside a house even I couldn't get inside! Edit: I see a 16.7Mb patch is imminent. I presume that is the reason. Edit 2: Patch applied, seems to have unstuck the ones out in the open. Still have ones stuck in walls.
