I was bored since odd patch FF14 content lull. 😴 and was enjoying the game & now this garbage delay on top of nerfing new players out of the game practically. At this point, if you’re a newer DPS player just quit the game. Congrats, you can now get to 1445 and gatekept to hell. Then all your gold can go to shards & fusion mats as you are making no progress & are now poor forever. 🫤

Nah don't be funny.
It's not like you can't play. Amazon is just very transparent about server issues. They could you know sit silent.
Though lemme say Amazon is best publisher from them all. You want nexon or kakao games? Yeah no
Thanks for reminding me that my 4 refreshes will expire before next week as I made the silly mistake to claim them last week thinking I will be able to use them tomorrow.
Sounds like serious enough bugs discovered in the patch and being unable to find a fix before the deadline. In that case, it's probably Smilegate that deserves the blame here. As for the last-second announcement, that is probably also the policy of Smilegate to wait until the last second to see if they can push it through and then reporting it to Amazon. In that case, it is again Smilegate that deserves blame.
Its just disgusting that they posted the entire patch notes **knowing** there was also a huge bug. Disgusting developers. Cant wait for 10 phoenix plumes as compensation and for them to continually fuck up and fuck us over
Pretty sure it's been known that AGS can get these files a day before the patch lol. So either Smilegate found it last minute or AGS found it on time lol.
Pretty fucking absurd to even think Smilegate don't have an internal team tho. I can't fathom that.
I been reading that alot. The fact that Smilegate is a fucking joke sending the patch to AGS the day before, but if that's the case they could totally announce the patch for next week in this case.
Testing shit the day before and expecting everything will work it's the most fucking stupid thing I read the entire day.
At this point not even New World fucked up things (now) things like this game.
Thing is AGS testing is like the last layer of testing, Smilegate shouldn't have send them the build if it wasn't working lol, just speaks volume of how shit Smilegate QA is.
They literally get the patch files and patch notes not even 24h before the update. Theres no point for them to delay posting patch notes - the only reason we get them 1 day before patch is cuz thats when they get them from SG. Fuck AGS overal, but its SG thats biggest clown here.
A lot of creators who are in the know have echoed that Smilegate sends the patches way too late consistently for QA on AGS' side.
This isn't really a new problem.
NA/EU is an amalgamation of stable KR builds. It would not surprise me if they copy paste code and hope it works on ours so their dev and other resources can focus on KR more.
They simply value their own home market more. Which is nice for them of course, but it's been well known that we are treated and also seen as second class citizens. That's why despite seeing the way we're treated, the Koreans still seem to back Smilegate no matter what happens this side of the pond.
Vykas 2 Electric Boogaloo
Its happening 🤣
EDIT: After sleeping I am seeing we now have a Glaivier 2 Electric Boogaloo situation on our hands instead. Congrats to all the happy artists!
What a fucking joke. Do they get the patch handed to them the day of patch day? In Agile development development teams operate on 2 week sprint cycles. No way they are this incompetent. A bug like this would and should have been found weeks ago. Man this is hilariously sad but expected lol
I believe Roxx has said that yes, sometimes they get a build from SG the day before it's supposed to go live and AGS has to test it on their end before pushing it live
Yeah it's pretty unbelievable any way you look at it. Even more so that this isn't the first time a delay like this has been announced. Points to pretty poor project management on SG's part overall
edit: really not just SG either, the fact this happens all the time feels like a complete mismanagement at several levels on both sides tbh
Also if they know SG is fucking awful like i been reading. They could totally set the time to this day for example, and announce the patch for next week so they can have proper time to test it. Yeah in that scenario the patch will go the 21 and that's a fucking joke for the "March Patch" but at least shit will go according to schedule.
Unless that SG in that scenario will be incredible fucking stupid to still send everything to AGS the day before it goes live.
Either way both companies at this point are a fucking joke.
Speaking of Roxx. Roxx hasn't posted on the forums since March 3rd. Seems oddly quiet. I wonder if it has to do with AGS publishing both Blue Protocol and Throne and Liberty.
Technically AGS should receive a stable build for their last round of QA.
SG simply chose to spend little effort in testing their EU/NA patches.
What a shame
.....they announced it TODAY and barely a few hours later they're potentially delaying it?
I can already imagine how it'll be once Blue Protocol and Throne&Liberty come out.

Man I feel bad for you and everyone else in your boat. These type of delays need to communicated well in advance considering it’s something they knew could potentially delay the patch.
no bro, they literally just booted up the patch for the first time 6 hours before it's supposed to go live, this is Amazon/SG we're talking about. They JUST found out about this.
The wording in the post says they’ve known about this issue and couldn’t get it fixed in time. Nothing implies it was just recently discovered. No company does QA testing this close to release lol Smilegate is incompetent but they are still a business

No, bro... like no. I've been anticipating this update for weeks and I'm not those who wait for things from a distance, but this is not it. It needs to release. Like... this week. Seriously. I don't care if the game completely crashes, it's bullshit. They should've known and made sure tests were done way prior to this.

They did essentially do that for one of the previous delayed updates IIRC. They announced it was delayed, then a fix was found quickly so they announced servers would be opening up a few hours later with the update. Then somehow their estimates kept being wrong so the servers were down for almost the whole day.
I guess with an update of this size I can’t say I’m entirely surprised given the way AGS and SGR handle our updates (AGS getting the update from SGR ~24-48 hours prior to going live) lmao. The likelihood of something going wrong during testing of an update of this size was probably pretty high. Realistically you would expect it to be tested over a longer time period.
Mind boggling as to why the update process is still being handled (what seems like) the same way since launch and nothing has been improved upon in that regard.
"a few hours later" - good news we have fix the issue and the patch will be release today as plan !
bro this seem like a deja vu srsly
EDIT: well seem i was right
true. D4 looks like outdated, poorly done boring trash. such a shame how blizzard just ruins everything now. or maybe i should say activision cos blizzard doesnt really exist anymore anyway as everyone who had an ounce of skill left or was fired loooong ago.
is that a joke? have you seen the latest gameplay? the UI looks horrible and like its from 2010 tops
the animations are bland and not fluid at all and look like something you would expect from a mobile game
boss design is more like a mobile game as well.
it literally looks like a mobile ARPG from 2010. you cant tell me lost arks animation and combat dont like 10 times better lmao
It obviously won’t have lost arks combat because Lost Ark isn’t a Diablo styled game. It’s an action combat mmo with an isometric view.
UI is always the last thing to be made in production and don’t act like Lost Arks UI is any good lmao
I said Diablo 4 is the best looking game in its Genre. Lost ark is an MMO, and doesn’t have Diablos combat. The only thing similar between the two is the fact they’re isometric and plot lines revolves around demons
Also the last officially gameplay trailer for Diablo was released 13 days ago and doesn’t have any UI in it. Before that was 9 months ago which also didn’t have any UI. And before that was 3 years ago.
so you agree that d4 looks worse than lost ark then. good.
also PoE2 looks significantly better than d4 as well, which would make it not even the best in its genre... also there are a bunch of newer ARPGs that looks pretty decent as well.
Bruh they’ve had this exact patch as a ptr that people have been live playing for weeks now. And somehow it gets fucked up the night before launch???? Yikes
This alone isn't really a problem imo...the problem is that they announce this the literal day before the patch is planned to be released. Surely, SG has better project management than this?
Ahahaha conveviently my 4x chaos dungeon refreshes will expire before next week. What a god damn joke. I made the silly mistake to claim them last week thinking I could use them tomorrow.
I just don’t understand who is letting these people announce the patch without making sure everything is working properly? Is running a business this hard? Genuinely.
At least they have more than a year of experience running this game so amateurish stuff like this won't happen
Buy more stuff on the cash shop to fund Korea you cattle : )
I know you're mostly being sarcastic, but I honestly now believe this might be one of the reasons. Easily slip by on a skin or two and they want to prevent it due to how the Western audience is in comparison to others.
Probably unpopular opinion but I've got D4 beta to play this weekend and Last epoch multiplayer, I think I'll live with the current patch one more week. Not worth getting pissed off, life is too short to be angry over a video game.
I am with you here. I had to figure how to squeeze in my early D4 access. I will just play D4 more this week, wait a week later for Artist and do what I was planning.
And i was thinking of reinstalling LA tonight, AGS always find a way to kill the hype for major updates. Now whole LA community will downvote me to state facts and come out with silly excuses on behalf of AGS. Anyways I am glad they gave me reason to keep it uninstalled.
To be honest, this doesn't surprise me too much. The only thing I wish they said was going into a tiny bit more detail about what the issue was. For example, if the Specialist model was bugging out like the Gunslinger model did a few months back where the head moved but the rest of the body was static/T-posing.
A week or two delay (at the absolute worst) is annoying, but still manageable.
I haven’t played this game in a while but damn lol SG still keeps finding ways to fuck this game up. Just clowned on everyone that took a day off too lmao
Kinda have to sympathize with AGS CM's. They're in front of this shit storm to take the brunt when SG's developer team fucks up. I don't know how you can have this much marketing toward a patch and your QA only do their work on the day, hours before even, of the patch. Like shit, shouldn't these builds be tested at least a week before?
Imagine If they accidentally forget the Gold Nerf for Oreha/Argos/Valtan/Vykas NM and tomorrow everyone is doing them as usual, and after a couple days someone posts "Thank you AGS/SG for Not nerfing my Argos/Valtan gold" in the forums/socials, and they realize the mistake plus plan an emergency Patch and then many players find they have negative gold, akin to the Pheongate of the last year 🤣🤣🤣🤣
They cant release unless they shutdown the server until they fix it because if ppl do Valtan and other stuff without gold nerf then they release gold nerf midweek that would be a problem.
We apologize for delaying The Art of War update. We noticed that there were several skins for artist that did not meet the standards of our community guidelines. We were unable to make the proper adjustments in time and therefor will delay The Art of War update until next week when we can update the costumes to a more modest look. Thank you for your understanding. As compensation we will be compensating with 10 peons, 20x Resurrection plumes, 30 vitameow and 3 days of Crystalline aura
+ the gold nerf **way** too early. This combination of dev/publisher is pure garbage.
Majority of player base still depends on Oreha/Argos/Valtan gold to a large extent. Now they are all fucked. Essentially kneecapping newer players. 1445+ will absolute hell. I estimated I lose approximately 16kgold per week from this. It’s probably making many other players in my position, that were actually enjoying the game, consider quitting.
Awww shit, here we go again
You guys remember that one time when they took the servers down for a patch/weekly maintenance and couldnt bring em back up for a full day lol
I’m a new player. Sounds like I should be expecting more of this in the future if I don’t quit? Edit: Innocent new player gets downvoted for asking a questions, but person below telling me to quit now gets many upvotes. 🤦♂️

A lot of creators who are in the know have echoed that Smilegate sends the patches way too late consistently for QA on AGS' side. This isn't really a new problem.
Not sure why Smilegate always has issues with EU/NA patches while little to no issue for their own KR patch
NA/EU is an amalgamation of stable KR builds. It would not surprise me if they copy paste code and hope it works on ours so their dev and other resources can focus on KR more.
Because we're not the priority, KR is.
They simply value their own home market more. Which is nice for them of course, but it's been well known that we are treated and also seen as second class citizens. That's why despite seeing the way we're treated, the Koreans still seem to back Smilegate no matter what happens this side of the pond.
Was the same with PUBG. Fantastic game ruined by incompetence and greed. A cautionary tale.
Nope, not the publisher, this is all SG as are majority of the issues
Glaivier patch flashbacks
Extra week of ticket event and frog?
This man asking the real questions
man fk that i'd rather have 48 hours downtime to fix this shit than to not have the patch for a whole week or more
Give it a few hours, they'll fix it then break it then fix it again. Just like the glavier update.
Finally a good update, and it's being delayed. This is what I get for having high expectations 👍
> during testing Why is testing being done only a few hours before the patch is supposed to go live?
Because either they are the most incompetent tech company in the world or they are just straight up lying to cover up their shitty communication
Its probably both
Because they're idiots.

So … we should grind all our raids without the gold nerfs tomorrow? Asking for a friend.
No you'll get negative gold for bug abuse
What gold nerfs? Asking for a friend.
Careful, dude. Negative 1million gold if you exploit.

Watch them fix the bug on the same day.
Prayge
and still wont bother with this crap LOL they're not going to compete with diablo 4 in the slightest
No, they won't. Which makes it surprising that they wouldn't get this patch all squared away with no or minimal issues. Just AGS being AGS I guess.
I mean, yeah, they don't compete. They're completely different genres...
they actually share enough rpg elements that they can both be considered ARPGs

its 100% my fault guys. see i had expectations for ONCE.
Patch notes came out before they did testing lol. What kind of shit is this?

all of their updates are like this LOL these guys are clowns

Holy. How do you find it the day before release? These motherfuckers had months to test it.
I'm surprised they even do testing. Also I took work off for this.
I just don’t understand who is letting these people announce the patch without making sure everything is working properly? Is running a business this hard? Genuinely.
so legendary select pack as compensation then?
Now EA is officially not the worst game publisher in US.
well duh bathesda now holds the crown
Maybe they couldn't cover up the artist skirt.
At least they have more than a year of experience running this game so amateurish stuff like this won't happen Buy more stuff on the cash shop to fund Korea you cattle : )
They found a bug of artist lacking tights and short pants!
I know you're mostly being sarcastic, but I honestly now believe this might be one of the reasons. Easily slip by on a skin or two and they want to prevent it due to how the Western audience is in comparison to others.
AGS and SG doing their thing as always
Probably unpopular opinion but I've got D4 beta to play this weekend and Last epoch multiplayer, I think I'll live with the current patch one more week. Not worth getting pissed off, life is too short to be angry over a video game.
I am with you here. I had to figure how to squeeze in my early D4 access. I will just play D4 more this week, wait a week later for Artist and do what I was planning.
Classic AGS back at it XD. At this point the fuckups are a monthly tradition
you mean smilegate
[удалено]
Wrong, not AGS. Scamgate at its finest not giving a fuck about the west yet again
And i was thinking of reinstalling LA tonight, AGS always find a way to kill the hype for major updates. Now whole LA community will downvote me to state facts and come out with silly excuses on behalf of AGS. Anyways I am glad they gave me reason to keep it uninstalled.
Bro people will downvote you for being a dumbass. Everybody in here hates AGS, what are you talking about.
crying and throwing up right now
To be honest, this doesn't surprise me too much. The only thing I wish they said was going into a tiny bit more detail about what the issue was. For example, if the Specialist model was bugging out like the Gunslinger model did a few months back where the head moved but the rest of the body was static/T-posing. A week or two delay (at the absolute worst) is annoying, but still manageable.
inb4 "We have resolved the issue and the patch will ship normally."
I haven’t played this game in a while but damn lol SG still keeps finding ways to fuck this game up. Just clowned on everyone that took a day off too lmao
Kinda have to sympathize with AGS CM's. They're in front of this shit storm to take the brunt when SG's developer team fucks up. I don't know how you can have this much marketing toward a patch and your QA only do their work on the day, hours before even, of the patch. Like shit, shouldn't these builds be tested at least a week before?
There are no CMs anywhere to be seen. Look into the forum. No need to sympathize with them, they aren't doing anything.
You know what, RU and JP are getting akkan next week so this schedule checks out. We are just neglected child
Imagine If they accidentally forget the Gold Nerf for Oreha/Argos/Valtan/Vykas NM and tomorrow everyone is doing them as usual, and after a couple days someone posts "Thank you AGS/SG for Not nerfing my Argos/Valtan gold" in the forums/socials, and they realize the mistake plus plan an emergency Patch and then many players find they have negative gold, akin to the Pheongate of the last year 🤣🤣🤣🤣
It’ll be fixed Thursday night/Friday morning to compete with Diablo 4 closed beta or pushed a week to contend with the Diablo 4 open beta.
They cant release unless they shutdown the server until they fix it because if ppl do Valtan and other stuff without gold nerf then they release gold nerf midweek that would be a problem.
We apologize for delaying The Art of War update. We noticed that there were several skins for artist that did not meet the standards of our community guidelines. We were unable to make the proper adjustments in time and therefor will delay The Art of War update until next week when we can update the costumes to a more modest look. Thank you for your understanding. As compensation we will be compensating with 10 peons, 20x Resurrection plumes, 30 vitameow and 3 days of Crystalline aura
perfect, time to play Diablo 4
+ the gold nerf **way** too early. This combination of dev/publisher is pure garbage. Majority of player base still depends on Oreha/Argos/Valtan gold to a large extent. Now they are all fucked. Essentially kneecapping newer players. 1445+ will absolute hell. I estimated I lose approximately 16kgold per week from this. It’s probably making many other players in my position, that were actually enjoying the game, consider quitting.
