Shockwave- Posted October 30, 2017 Share Posted October 30, 2017 DE, with POE missions taking even longer you need to give us more than 3 min warnings for hotfixes, lost my entire mission AGAIN with this hot fix, that is 5 in a row now, including an Eidleon lens. I am frankly sick and tired of the middle finger DE gives to the players every time there is a 3 min warning for a hotfix. I know you want to fix your game but give the players 15 minutes. Sorry just do it. When the hotfix is read wait 15 lousy minutes, maybe run a final test on it. There is really no reason to treat players this way. We deserve a chance to finish our missions and opt not to start a new one before the hotfix since we tend to lose all our mission gains. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

It's not like he can't extract at anytime without failing or again losing your drops. Hotfixes shouldn't happen at night time due to Teralysts Hunters.

I did stay until it said it was safe to restart the mission, then it failed (network not responding), as it has every hot fix i've been in the plains on so far. There are also syndicate defense missions that are hard to time, the fact that someone might end the mission when you don't want to, etc etc. What is the reason not to give players 15 minute warnings?

This happens to me as well, if a hotfix got me in mid of a bounty, never got the final reward afterward or standing. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
BansheePrime Posted October 30, 2017 Share Posted October 30, 2017 (edited) You don't need to leave your mission before the hotfix though. You can just hang around in the mission until the hotfix is over. Course with the constant connection issues lately you're screwed either way.

I agree, the 3 minute warning is far to short, it could at least be 5 minutes, there have been so many times that if I had a just a few minutes more I could have made it to extraction in time.

No you can't, MANY hotfixes result in those who stayed getting errors on leaving. So again, what is the reason not to give a 10-15m warning, they MUST know a hotifx is coming. Even if they said "hotfix sometime this hour" I'd be fine taking a break and coming back later. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Well said, I totally agree, staying in mission in no way guarantees you will not lose your loot and rewards, unfortunately. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I wholeheartedly agree with this. Whilst I applaud DE for doing what most other Gaming companies don't do, and that's trying to stay on top of things with fixes etc. they do need to be a little more considerate when it comes to pushing them out. If a person only get's to play for an hour a day, they choose to do a mission that takes 20 minutes, then a hotfix comes in. It not only currently sends the mission to the grave, but you loose any loot or resources gained. So you've lost roughly 20 minutes of your time, you're never getting back, plus the loot/resources you worked for. I agree with a 15 minute warning.
