Guild Wars 2

You guys always do bug fixes at reset, wouldn’t it be easier to load bug (new builds) fixes at the end of the week in bulk so we don’t have to keep getting inconvenienced in whatever we’re doing (Tequatl, WvW, ETC)

Ah yes, lets do it on Fridays, in the middle of WvW resets. We all know how popular that is.

And no, bug fixes should go live when they are ready, not potentially half a week later.

No matter when they do fixes people will get inconvenienced.

It makes more sense to release the fixes as soon as they can and during the work week in the event something doesn’t work as expected.

I am guessing some players would rather have the bugs that inconvenience them hot-fixed as soon as possible, rather than waiting up to a week to have them addressed.

But, who knows?

And let’s not forget that theory that all those bug fixes for the last major patch allowed them to sneak in stuff for the stress test. So just think of every “inconvenient” bug fix as a potential step closer to HoT beta…

• Every time is a bad time for someone in the community, however, some times are better for ANet staff.
• Every moment that a bug is in the game, someone is inconvenienced. Typically, the overall effect is worse on the community by waiting 2-3 days than the momentary need to exit for a patch.
• Nearly all of the time, you can continue playing the game for 1-2 hrs after a hotfix; you don’t have to exit PvE at all usually. (Although WvW, because it’s a shared environment is different, unfortunately.)
