I really hoped this would be better. GGG and Chris have been silent through all of the bugs and issues with content, excluding the crashes at start where we got a tweet.
GGG needs brand management professional that stop them from messing up brand identity and customer trust. This is 2 leagues in a row that large sections of the community feel cheated and mislead.
I’m not mad, just disappointed that we don’t have a dedicated PR team and can’t trust what GGG says.
I mean if you tell the playerbase you are working on something and you know about it then yes, I expect they would feel better. Getting the playerbase to feel like they are heard is what pushed GGG to have the podcasts and their stress on communication. If the tech team is working over the weekend, why wouldn't someone in communications do so as well?
Our news post on Monday included this:
We are closely monitoring all feedback and will communicate about any patches and improvements later this week. We are planning to make the transformation progress bar on Scourged items visible at a glance on the Crucibles Panel without having to hover over each item. We are also reviewing whether to make the Blood Crucible's resource bar more obvious when it's full (currently there's an effect and a sound but they may be too easy to miss). We've also noted reports of a small number of balance changes that were missed in the patch notes, most notably changes to Veiled Modifiers relating to bows and changes to armour-based shields. Once we've reviewed these, we'll share the patch notes for these changes so that they're clearer.
Daily patch notes can be found here. The known issues list can be found here.
