Terrible game.

Well, you can help out by creating a bug list:
including the specs of your computer, internet; a list of processes and applications running at the same time as CF;
log all instances of bugs, including the time of day, the server and channel and room you were in; the ping at the time of the error; the name and # of the error; and a detailed explanation of what went wrong, almost like a step-by-step account of it; any solutions or workarounds found by accident or on purpose for the error(s).
If you can create such a suitable one, then I recommend posting it in the tech support board, hopefully maybe it will be noticed and brought up the works to the devs
-
can you explain the problem then would devs fix that?
because its easy to critic the game without explaining the problem
I'm sure you don't get an obvious glitch when you don't load up in a game. And since its on facebook and on the forums. -
"Fix the game" is about a loose a term as you can coin.
It requires no actual doing on the developers part, and no thought from you.
Present WHAT the problem is, when it occurs, how it occurs.
"its on facebook" is not an error description, is a sad attempt to simulate that everyone knows what you're referring to, while in reality nobody does.
If everyone presented coherent and good bug reports, I could spend less time typing this up five times a day and start referring them to GMs and by extension technicians instead.
I can't do that if they have to scroll through ten pages of "omfg fix it" before they're told what they're supposed to fix. -
How about realizing the only major bug right now which is the non-loading bug. It takes common sense to realize he's talking about that. Just like the fact they blame it on server overload and it's still doing it 24 hrs later and all the servers are near empty except alpha."Fix the game" is about a loose a term as you can coin.

A bug I have no knowledge of as its not happening to everyone.How about realizing the only major bug right now which is the non-loading bug. It takes common sense to realize he's talking about that. Just like the fact they blame it on server overload and it's still doing it 24 hrs later and all the servers are near empty except alpha.
Regardless of how you perceive the bug - obviously in this case "omfg how can you not know it?!", its not necessarily something everyone is familiar with.
Since I haven't experienced it, and OP offered no explanation (nor did you, though you typed up 3 sentences on declaring me stupid for not knowing what was referred), I can't exactly hop on Saidin and tell him "yo, Aero and some other guy said the game is broken, fix it".
Even if its obvious to some, I need details to be able to forward it at all.
And oh look, I just typed up 10 more pointless sentences because people here think "fix it noobs" constitutes a valid bug report. -
Lol immature? ok then.I saw the stupid thread once:guys i need problem.RawrMonkeyyy wrote: »Joon, you're Korean, how about you fix it?KiddingAnd Dot, seeing how immature this community is, I'm surprised you haven't heard of any complaints before this one.
in the thread there was standing just hi there.
thats what he does also.
terrible game:
pls fix
fix what? first he didnt said the main problems.
named what they must fix and he wanted game to be fixed?And you calling me immature.great if you so want that i act immature,
Ok lets call a genie and lets wish no hackers and that this game have anymore problems.
But sorry this is reality,there are no genies,wizards or anyone who can fix the problems of cf except Developers of z8games. -
beside haks, absolutely unstable, the game crashes down regulary, freezes steadily, sometimes more than unplayable. as i said, not mentioning the haks problem.Lol immature? ok then.I saw the stupid thread once:guys i need problem.

idc what you say, its not professional if the urgent (and well known) bugs of this game wont be fixed because its more important to make you spent more money.
but hey, be a nice guy and support that non-fixing-mentality by buying more colored weapons and more useless hats. -
I already stated what needs to be done by the public in order for us to properly catalogue and address the issues.xXjohnboyXx wrote: »beside haks, absolutely unstable, the game crashes down regulary, freezes steadily, sometimes more than unplayable. as i said, not mentioning the haks problem.

"game crashes down regularly" is not a bug report, its a statement without grounds.
"When I shoot my M4-advanced at someone wearing SPOP on the map Eagle Eye, I will often, around 20% of the time, get an error saying "error_542432432b", and the game then forces me back to the lobby. When forced back to the lobby, I can not re-enter the room as the game gives me a "can not enter room, error; 5304034024". Please review the added screenshot and error log.
I'm using a custom-built PC with a 3,5GHz Black Edition AMD Phenom X4 processor, 4GB of RAM at 535MHz, but I can only use 3.25GB as I'm using Windows XP Professional SP3 32bit.
Here is also a saved dump from Speccy which shows all the updates and the status of all my computer gear: (http://www.piriform.com/speccy)
If you need, I can also supply a list of all programs running while encountering this error.
I have no modifications to my Crossfire client and of course, I have no running hacks which would make this whole post null and void as hacking removes any rights I might have for using this game."
^ is a good error report.
Its short yet descriptive, relevant to the error and only to the error at hand.
Necessary information is supplied, both in quotes, screenshots and added error log.
It gives me something presentable to forward to Saidin or other GMs, who then can easily foward it to technicians in an attempt to reproduce and solve the problem, or refer it further to the developers.
But alas, people here only cry and would never bother doing what I just did, even though mine was only an example while yours would actually be helpful.
So we'll cut this thread off here.
actually we won't -

[QUOTE='[MOD][...][/QUOTE]
first thx for an answer.
but seriously, there is an ingame feature for the "send an error report"-thing.
BUT you say i should give u a detailed error report? ohcmon.
and then? the game crashes down or freezes so often, i dont wanna report you about my crashes and by doing this spending more time reporting than playing. and YOU know there are many bugs, i am quite sure you experience them too.
its not "a bug". the game is instable. it is.
and if you get that errors, and thousands getting them too, there should not be a "most of the people just cry". right?
i dont wanna be part of the solution-developer-team, i just wanna play.
its not crying. these are facts.
you want me to pay?
so then, at least, give me the imagination of doing something.
and it shouldnt be a "we do so much and the users just QQ" phrase.
that is pathetic. -

Like dot said you have to be very specific so the devs can reproduce it and find out why its doing it
Godamn It , All Of That I Mean This Is The Best I Can Think Of
" I Logged In As Usual , Everything Was Fine , Connection Stable , 87 Stable Ping , 60 Stable Fps And I Randomly Joined A Zombie Mode Room , Half Of The Times It Would Freeze At About 90% Loading Done And I Would Have To End The Process Via The Task Manager , Sometimes It Disconnects Me And Sends Me Back To The Lobby , On Rare Occasions It Gets Stuck Half Way Through Loading And If I Hover The Mouse Around I Can See Player's Badges " -
The game is perfectly stable for me.xXjohnboyXx wrote: »first thx for an answer.

I rarely get errors, and when I do, its usually because of something I did.
This might be terribly hard to realize but not everyone is experiencing what you're experiencing.
Thats why we need detailed descriptions of what happened, how it happened and all I've already described in this thread.
NH3Destroyer; If you actually read the post, you would realize that theres nothing complicated about what I wrote.
I described what happened, and quoted the speccy (linked) results.
Anyone can do that. -

The game also works fine for me. The only time it hasnt was, as said, something I did. -

What character and items did you have on?
What weapons did you have in your bags?
Did you have extra bags on?
WHICH map?
What was your CPU and Ram usage percent during the error loading?
Did you have other non-regular OS tasks running?
How many players were in the room lobby?
Which Server and Channel were you in?
How many rounds/mode/time was it set to?
Any restrictions placed on the room settings?
There's plenty you can answer. -
again: thx for an answer, i ("we") didnt get much answers at all in the past.The game is perfectly stable for me.

the error report popup, when the game crashes down, isnt it meant to take all hardware facts, installed OS, etc..?
if not, what is it for?
and really, it crashes down so often, not alone me, i am on many TS-servers while i play, the refrain is always the same: instable.
be lucky, that you get that errros that much.
as this discussions runs around in circles now, i will give your advice a chance.
i collect what will happen and send it to -->where<--. pls give me the relevant email address.
but you cant expect me to do this all the time, day got only 24hrs..:p -
ok common bug is if yor femal charecter and use the colt m16a3 and slash melee first then switch to gun it bugs and slashes your gun while fireing
but nhed i get same problem with stuck loading at 90% then ctrl alt delete and end process etc. and for mod rex:
get the errors with all charecters as of now "/
in bag i had m16a3 gold deag camo deag anaconda m4 gold kriss super v awm camo
yes always use 4 bags
most common map i load error on is ankara ( also if you switch channnels fast and get invited and join quick ill error )
cpu when loading is about 60 and dunno about ram ^^
nope used smart close only thing running is cf
once was just 3 others at full room
uk1.2.3.4
13 round game
no room setting.
using win 7 with 3gb ram i really dont think its my laptop "/
( did have this probelm before and re downloading worked so maybe reinstall cf is on the cards -_- ) -
There is now a sticky for the loading error, which we're very much aware of.
For other error reports see my post at http://forum.z8games.com/showpost.php?p=2666422&postcount=16 on how to properly construct an error report.
You can submit it either to me (will only be forwarded if properly constructed), or create a new thread in the Technical Support section; http://forum.z8games.com/forumdisplay.php?f=13
And again; A properly constructed report is essential for us to be able to solve the problem.
If you don't feel you're able or have the time to do it, don't do it at all.
Someone who cares more will, and you won't have to spam us with "fix it plz".
