Guild Wars 2

Right from begin on when the Feature Pack get implemented, your Test Player Number 1 that is so famous for his own website also – Dulfy – said on said webpage that those achievements are bugged.

Come on, this person plays and tests for you those patches several weeks already before they go live nad then these bugs aren’t fixed even weeks after the patch has been released.

I’m speaking of the following colelction achievements, which aren’t activatable right now:

Current bugged collections as of Sept 11, 2014

• Brewmaster Collection (not able to activate)

• Fine Wining Collection (not able to activate)

• Hero of the People Collection (not able to activate)

I don’t know, whats so hard to fix about them, when two of those 3 achievements require just 1 item to activate the achievements which need to get overlooked., whereas for the Hero Achievement needs the general code to get overlooked that makes using any of those boss loot bags either activate it, or either instead usign the loot bag of any of the lowest quality boss loot bags activate it…

I would like to work finally on those achievements and not have to wait first until 4th november or so, when its most likely that we will see first some more bug fixes again

bump it up

Orpheal,

It is a violation of forum rules to bump your post
Bumping a post that is less than 25 hours old is pointless, especially when your original post is made on a Sunday, a day in which Anet programmers, etc do not work.
Additionally, do not expect a response from programmers to your bug report; after all, they are busy fixing bugs. Rest assured, they either read these forums or have pertinent details presented to them; however, they will not spend time respond as they are busy fixing.
Finally, I’m not sure where you get your information, but I’ve seen nothing from Dulfy that indicates that the host of the site or anyone affiliated with it, tests things for several weeks. My understanding is that Dulfy simply gets a little bit of “Press” exposure before a patch goes live – I could be wrong on this point, mind you.

hmm, didn’t know that with those 25h , wasn’t intentionally violated, so please forgive me (not that I could make it undone anyways now naturally)
However, with the amount of bugs that get reported daily, I’m pretty sure, my thread will be tommrrow again vanished in the deep depths of the countless forum pages

But I could’t remember myself for saying, that I want to see a dev response here..
So why do you assume, that I want that ???
With “several weeks” I meant basically only a time span between just 1-2 weeks before the patch goes live, whats enough time to test everything out to the details, make for everything screenshots, write the guides, make the preview videos and so on – however, thats an other topic.
I mentioned her just only, because of seeing, that on her site she showed INSTANTLY on her site on day 1 when the patch went live, that those 3 achievements already started with being bugged, so she must have known that these achievements are bugged already a certain time before the patch went live, but naturally was forbidden to say/show anything cause of staying under the NDA, that thing that prohibids people from showing/talking about anythign game related, before Anet officially announces/implements something, regardless of what it may be .

I just find it weird, that we get basically something implemented, that starts out to be bugged already from begin on as it seems and has been known before the patch wents live already by its test players like Dulfy, just so that we have to wait then on it several months after the patch, until we see somethign small like this gettign fixed, what should have been fixed in my opinion with a hot fix after the patch release.

Sorry, my bad on assuming you wanted a Dev response; more often than not, posters who bump their threads are looking for that.

I don’t know what the status of testers is, but I think Dulfy is considered “press,” and as we can see on various blogs, online rags, etc, press seems to get a 3 or so day headstart peek into upcoming feature changes, but they probably aren’t doing much in the way of testing. Also, having been a software developer, I can tell you that sometimes one thing is introduced into the system that, via ripple effect, causes a problem someplace unrelated to the area being changed/patched/fixed and the rippled upon area is not tested because no one is thinking that there is something changed there.

The best course for bugs in Live is to report the bug via the ingame “Bug” report. Anet has a “krewe” whose sole job is to monitor those reports and pass them along to the appropriate teams for fixing. Type /bug in the chat line to report a bug in game.

Will these ever be fixed so we can do them?!
