Twesterm apparently you've never programmed anything. I program for a living and huge bugs pop up all the time in beta testing. You may not be trolling but you know damn well that bugs in Home give you a boner.

If something like this happen in every beta or in most of them, maybe there is something wrong with the development proccess...

So far, this is just a closed beta (most likely an alpha but who knows)... if this happens in the open beta I will be very surprised...

I guess twesterm is on here because he can't play Brawl right now.



We had two bags of grass, seventy-five pellets of mescaline, five sheets of high-powered blotter acid, a salt shaker half full of cocaine, a whole galaxy of multi-colored uppers, downers, screamers, laughers…Also a quart of tequila, a quart of rum, a case of beer, a pint of raw ether and two dozen amyls.  The only thing that really worried me was the ether.  There is nothing in the world more helpless and irresponsible and depraved than a man in the depths of an ether binge. –Raoul Duke

It is hard to shed anything but crocodile tears over White House speechwriter Patrick Buchanan's tragic analysis of the Nixon debacle. "It's like Sisyphus," he said. "We rolled the rock all the way up the mountain...and it rolled right back down on us...."  Neither Sisyphus nor the commander of the Light Brigade nor Pat Buchanan had the time or any real inclination to question what they were doing...a martyr, to the bitter end, to a "flawed" cause and a narrow, atavistic concept of conservative politics that has done more damage to itself and the country in less than six years than its liberal enemies could have done in two or three decades. -Hunter S. Thompson

I never said the huge bugs were in my code :)

The place I worked at before where I am now had NO development methodology. My point was, however, that large bugs CAN be found during beta testing.



Large bugs can be found, but those generally come from changes which they shouldn't be doing in the first place unless it's to fix bugs.

One or two small bugs is acceptable and even one hard to reproduce bug isn't terrifying (to the user at least), what that article writes is just scary.



All the games that I've ever beta tested (Supreme Commander, Company of Heroes, among others) have had bugs that caused the game to crash, depending on the situation.

The only game that didn't, that I recall, was the Lord of the Rings Online.

Im sure their are not releasing home until is perfect. As for the 40 users that couldnt the beta handle, i think home is designed as different servers handle about 50 users at a time. I might be wrong here im not sure, but i think it will not be one server with 1000s user at a time. So bug fixing one server with 40 users is not a major bug at this early beta. But again i might be wrong



I like technology when its moving forward..
