Thanks, I left a couple of days ago (mast trick lol). I'm more concerned for the new players who might not know about the problem and quit.

AN Erudite's story...


Day 17: Still is the skiff.....no response from the one's they call, the devs. There is nothing more left for me to kill on this god-forsaken continent.

PLEASE FOR THE LOVE OF ALL THAT IS HOLY!! WHAT IS GOING ON WITH THIS????!!!!

Bump for the poor Erudites.

Hey! Remember when this worked?

Just FYI, I got this from another thread:

I spent an hour trying to recreate the erudin shuttle bug on my test server about 30 minutes after the post first went up. The shuttle worked consistently. I tried a blind fix in this patch for what I thought might have been causing the problem. It apparently didn't work. Unless the bug gets fixed, there's no point in me addressing it. The reality is still that you'll have to petition or swim out to the boat yourself in order to get to Qeynos.

Basically, from what I get from this, is that they are trying to fix it, but because they can't figure it out, they see no need to let us know it's being worked on.

Linkage to thread?

From the date listed in the quote, it looks like this is from 2009 -- if this is the case, it possible it's not being worked on at all.

If this isn't the case, it would not hurt the devs to atleast let us know, directly, that it is indeed being worked on...

EDIT -- BAH!! lol -- never mind on linkage, didn't notice it in the quote; the date is current and it appears they are working on this.


EDIT, Again...
The devs ARE working on this, they are just having trouble identifying the cause of the problem -- until resolution, the boat can either be boarded using the 'Mast-Method' (heh, like that name, thanks to the one who thought it up) or petition for a ride to Qeynos (per Kanras). In short, they know, and they are trying.

Is there a "We're Currently Working On..." thread somewhere? If not, I'd sure like to see one. Communication goes a long way.
