TheMoose Posted January 25, 2013 Posted January 25, 2013 As it stand, even with port forwarded, Crash to Desktop 5 times within each sessions... (thats withing 15 +/- of testing) minutes Basically unplayable right now as far as MP goes... After 20min of trying to spool up each time and to take off, it crashed so many often then I had to give up...Seriously spread 1.2.3... thanks Antec 900 gaming tower, PSU: Corsair 750W, Q6600, Asus P5K, 8Gig Mushkin, Nvidia eVGA 280 GTX Superclocked 1G DDR3, SSDNOW200 Kingston Drive, TrackIr 3000+Vector, Logitech Extreme 3D Pro joystick, Saitek rudder pedals pro, Sharp 42" inch LCD Aquo.

joey45 Posted January 25, 2013 Posted January 25, 2013 They have to upload a test installer first then do some more tests to see if that works then IF it does then they need to update the servers... All takes time. The only way to make sense out of change is to plunge into it, move with it, and join the dance.

Mustang Posted January 25, 2013 Posted January 25, 2013 We all suffer from the screen freezes, i can go one evening and have 5+ in a row but i never let it deter me, after persevering last night i was able to finally login and have a 4hr sortie and 13 kills :) 1.2.3 is coming, just hang on in there ;)

I was more concerned that you chaps might have thought I was buggering around and not playing properly! :)
Speed Posted January 25, 2013 Posted January 25, 2013 (edited) ED doesn't want you singing this the day that 1.2.3 is released: bb_OEaHfWII Just a little more patience, please. It's coming. And NO, you don't want to rush the cook ;) What is important to understand is that every new patch is including new features/engine updates/bug fixes. Those can cause serious unforeseen consequences (even the bug fixes- bug fixes can cause new bugs to surface), and if you were to, say, rush a patch, you'd be very unhappy with the results.

It’s obvious from reviews and users that this ‘beta’ is acting more like an alpha IMO. Just saying from observations...

Members of the beta team spend many hours bug hunting and the developers spend countless additional hours fixing the bugs and improving the code all the time. This is a complex simulation and the beta team is taking the time to address MP stability before the next update. I am perfectly happy to wait for it. Great things take time and AFAIK there are many people flying on the 104th and other community servers every day and thoroughly enjoying themselves regardless. :D You could always wait until all is out of beta if you choose to.

Maybe you don't have the right sort of temperament to deal with it? Many people are flying and enjoying themselves in MP even now. I see the 104th and other servers pretty full each night. Mustang just posted in this thread that he had a 4 hour sortie with 13 kills last evening. He persevered. Take a lesson from those that do or don't complain and wait till the patch. You can choose but bashing the beta as alpha and insults only make you appear small. Try to be happy. It suits you better ;) Out 1 http://www.104thphoenix.com/

I still have faith in ED, just got frustrated in the period of time...I understand that patience is virtue... Moose, while i agree that bugs can be very irritating try to think of it this way: its either buggy sim, or no sim. at least it starts when you double click the icon. as software quality assurance specialist (not for ED of course) i can tell you i was never part of project without lots of bugs and there were multiple situations when we released with known bugs. poor QA on our part? perhaps, but it was the best available to project. same here , ED QA team while perhaps not 100% is the best that you going to get. yes, i am irritated by bugs, but i can see how these things can happen when creating something of DCS complexity. and given the level of work I do on my project (and i do consider myself as adequate at least at my profession) i can't really blame them.

Rider1 Posted January 26, 2013 Posted January 26, 2013 Where are you guys getting that World is still a Beta? I see some modules are still in beta.. FC3 CA sure. World is a release version. Or did I miss something?
KLR Rico Posted January 26, 2013 Posted January 26, 2013 Given the nature of this type of simulation, I think we should consider DCSW and all of it's modules in perpetual beta. There's always something to improve, that usually means new bugs, new fixes, then back to new features, and the cycle repeats ad infinitum... It goes with the territory, IMHO. As long as there's some type of active development at all, I'm happy. i5-4670K@4.5GHz / 16 GB RAM / SSD / GTX1080 Rift CV1 / G-seat / modded FFB HOTAS
