So have they just given up on this game?

[actusreus73]

Seriously, is there like one 13 year old kid assigned to the 3.03 patch?  No indication of where things stand, when it'll be done, and the game is completely unplayable without it.  I started playing a game that was already a year old several months ago, and the bug that prevents NPC from going hostile began about a month in.  Since then, they've said it would be fixed with the next patch.

 

OBSIDIAN!  READ THESE FORUMS, AND ANSWER THIS POST!  WHEN WILL THIS STINKING PATCH BE FINISHED?  THIS IS GETTING RIDICULOUS!

Well, something's certainly ridiculous here...

Probably lots of people on summer vacations. Just relax.

Oh, I'm ridiculous?  So I should expect a game that's released in March 2015 to be completely unplayable in August 2016?  That's garbage.

Completely unplayable huh... must've missed that. Maybe I'm just not very observant. 

 

Though I did happen to notice that the 3.03 update was released a month ago. Just a though, but maybe try to get your facts straight before you start throwing a hissy fit.

Yeah, that is what i thought. I'm playing 3.03 since i while. I did not become nuts lol. But reading about this bug about NPC turning hostile reminds me of a huge problem NWN2 had... Faction problems on persistant servers implying the exact same thing: player characters bloodily slaughtered several times during Roleplay events that was supposed to be some kind of garden party . NPC would turn hostile at random for no particular reason.

Loren - the game may not be unplayable to you but it will be to many - such as myself

 

I bought this game 18 months ago and had to stop playing because as the game progressed the load times became so excessive (more than 3 minutes ), it became tedious. I have been unable to discover what is causing this

 

I started again last month. Not only are load times starting to lengthen again but I been hit by the bug described in this thread.

 

You may never experience either. However it is very frustrating trying to play what is clearly an excellent game and being forced to stop play because of internal bugs.

 

Party Management started to become odd when I tried to dismiss Durance and recruit Hiravias. The management screen showed that Durance was still there but Hiravias wasn't. There were only 5 characters in the game area (the 2 mentioned were not in that game area).

 

Back at Caed Nua it was weird but with extreme difficulty and lengthy reloads I managed to get the party back to 6. The next return to the Stronghold came game hours later. I ended up with a party of 5 and two of these were identical copies of Rana. Entering Brightthollow, caused the game to crash repeatedly.

 

Your order of play may not have seen that happen.

 

The comments made and exasperation shown were very fair.
