Bug Fixes

Fixed an issue that sometimes prevented players from resetting their active Flashpoint.

 

Operations

 

 

Eternity Vault

Using "Reset All Active Operations" no longer causes Soa and the Ancient Pylons to respawn even if the player is currently locked out of these encounters.

As Azzras has posted, there's an upcoming 1.1 patch in the works. It's already in the Test Server (it has been for over a week now), and they will be adding even more things on it tomorrow.

 

The 1.0.2d patch was just a quick weekly patch to fix some critical issues that were easy to implement.

 

Cheers.

If you want you can go and travel bac in time some more and see what some game did at 1992 but we are living 2012 now and EA has many times bigger budget than wow had at 2004. You cant really compare how some game was 7 years ago at launch and how some game is at 2012 in launch.

sweet links, just remember that there wasn't nearly as much money to be made back then as there is now. Keep this in mind, customers are selfish. If it's not done to their desires, they leave. A lot of the bugs they are fixing really shouldn't be there in the first place. To make as much money as possible they need to keep this pace, which in turn keeps customers blind that things won't change for awhile. Hell to make even more money they actually need a better pace.

Do you really want to look at WoWs patch history for 2011?

 

here's a hint it's even worse.

well no bugs should be in the game in the first place that's kind of why they are called bugs.

Which more than likely plays a role in them losing 10% of their subs. Keep in mind you just helped prove my point.

 

pick any year in wow

 

Vanilla wow had 38 patches over about 2 years which is 1.5 months between patches

 

BC had 24 patches over about 34 months which is a patch every 1.4 months

 

WOTLK is the best with a patch every 1.1 months

 

so.... yeah blizz has always been bad at patching.

 

 

So far I am happy with the patches Bioware has put out. They are not great but defently a huge step in the right direction. If they can keep up small patches every week and 1 big patch every 1.5 months i will be VERY happy.

hotfixes no but it is all the patches and live updates you can see them at the bottom of the page. It lists them as 3.11a and so on.

 

 

edit found the hotfix archive its all the way at the bottom

 

http://www.wowwiki.com/Hotfixes/2006_Archive

 

in 2006 they only had 3 hotfixes so it's not exactly stellar either. As I remember the hotfixes where always added 3 days after patches to fix the problems the patches created.
