New Features without fixing bugs

Post by Goku_2020 »

Has anyone seen this lately that more and more bugs keep getting added to the game, without really focusing on fixing old bugs and priortizing them ?

the games often has become useless since the new bugs get introduced so often (almost every other week)

shouldnt the focus be to fix the old bugs or reply them,

I feel you on this. It causes a shift away from simply trying to be good at the game, to learning where the bugs are and exploiting them. In short, knowing the bugs gives you a significant advantage. That's simply wrong, and kills the enjoyment for inexperienced players.

The key bug that needs fixing is the one with dice changers vs a reroll card. I can't understand how this has gone unfixed for so long. There are dozens of reports on this one issue.

The developer of the game is a volunteer and is probably overwhelmed by the number of reports. Not sure if there would be any interest in the community helping to prioritise some of the main bugs that affect gameplay very badly.

Thank you. 💯 agree. I think they really need to look at the bugs (both new and old) and identity what needs to be fixed. Number of up votes are good as well.

I noticed that every often new bugs gets introduced, things which were working last week now seem to be broken.

I m at that point where I have just given up on raising new bugs, because it feels pointless for 2 reasons:
1. Not getting addressed
2. Fixing this introduces new bug

Given that developers are Volunteer basis, I respect them and really admire work tgey put in. But what needs to be evaluated is: new version/features with broken features, or fix the bugs and at least make the current experience better.

I lean more towards bug fixes, because you cant fully enjoy the new version.

I played many games recently and bugs keep getting added to base version. Making the gane not playable.

Does the deployment go through any testing?
