Now imagine you got a zillion people to pay you 70 bucks to do it. Don't give me the "its harder than you think" b.s. It's literally their job.

 

It might be their job to work on code, but it doesn't mean it is easy to find the issues in the software at least unlike other recalls I have seen over the last while its not life threatening like your airbag in your car not deploying or contaminated food with what might cause a lethal reaction.

And it is the American Cancer Society's job to find a cure for cancer via funding research. They haven't done it yet, so let's bludgeon them with criticism. They have LOADS of money, so wtf is taking so long?? Right??

umm...why dont we again?
their are entire industries profiteering off of people dying from cancer. KEEP THEM ALIVE! They chant regarding the vegtables on tubes. That machine they are hooked to makes us 10k every hour.
what are they doing about it? Seriously? They cant even console the people and families. They csnt even be bothered with preventitive measures.
Hey, news flash. Smog increases cancer rates. Why dont they help lobby for regulations for cleaner air?
cancer foundation is a dump where you can plop your money for a piece of feel good. Some nice placebo to think you made a difference. The entire principle sickens me. You want to stop cancer? Freaking carpool. There you made a bigger difference then the cancer foundation or w/e they call themselves.

So does that mean I should unsub from SWtOR and stop buying cartel coins?

Its not a conspiracy. There are conspiracies, but its more about incompetence and poor management. If you cant find a cure you stop the stuff that is causing it, help those who are dealing with it, and prevent others from taking advantage of it.
the reasin quite hilariously is because they dont pay the ceo enough money. They need to pay for a better ceo. One that is qualified.

Aww it aint the first example i tore into, wont be the last. Gearbox isnt obliged to patch the game but it is in their best interests. I thought the op was good. Its not a serious petition. Hes just bringing it up and getting it attention, and thats a good thing to do. The other thing we need to do is seperate the bs from the actual bugs so the devs know what to fix.

Gearbox isnt like the cancer foundation. They need to produce results with their money. Plagues of bugs could hurt dlc sales and they dont want a bad name on their flagship product.

Signed.

 

Hugs and kisses to all.

 

Now that the PC community concerns have 'run its course' and be closed, expect a lot more posters here.

 

Let's vote with our wallets, shall we?

Any advice on which programming language I should practice on? In college we mainly use C++, unless we get a project that demands otherwise- other than that I don't really practice coding that much, I was thinking of checking online contests on C++ and stuff and participating.

Honestly, mobile dev is really hot right now - since mobile platforms are very new, there aren't a lot of senior engineers with the skills. Android devs are especially in-demand, since it's such a pain to deal with the SDK and Android apps weren't profitable until recently (therefore, few people in the industry learned it).

The most important thing, though, is to be a good software engineer - someone who's very good at writing software as part of a team. As a software engineer, readability and testability matters way, way more than writing technically perfect code. If your code is perfect but unreadable, the first person to touch it will break it, and the software will get worse over time. If your code is buggy but easy to read and unit-tested, it will get better over time.

Things like short methods, descriptive method names, methods with minimal side effects - this isn't taught well in university. But don't worry: once you get into the workforce, you'll pick up these habits naturally from looking at code written by senior engineers.

(being "multilingual" also helps... since different languages focus on different patterns, you can learn useful techniques by practicing in multiple languages)

There's a patch on the way.

Says who? We haven't had a single response about patch 3 or PC control/UI fixes since early December. I'm not naive enough to take them at their word after they said this game was "made by PC gamers for PC gamers"...Yeah that seems like an honest statement...i should trust them and take them at their word.

[Multiplayer] Update on the Key Drop Issue

01-07-2015 02:35 PM

 

Hello everyone,

 

We're working on a fix for the key drop issue in multiplayer that should resolve the vast majority of these instances. This fix will be included as part of a larger upcoming patch for Dragon Age: Inquisition. We'll provide more details at a later date, and appreciate your patience.

It's worth remembering that BioWare will categorise some of the PC UI issues as features, not bugs.

BioWare have released 4-5 Patches for every past game, they will for this one.

So we got a patch....that added a walk key! HURRRRAY! Granted that is awesome that we got something...but modders added that in after a few days not 2 months. Not to mention this shouldn't have been missed and should have been in the game at release. 

 

That being said its nice to see a patch regardless and hopefully it helps those who have serious technical/crashing issues.

 

But for the PC users like myself that think we got bent over and had a basketball shoved up our arses with their marketing and lies about PC UIs, PC controls, Tac camera etc etc. Its still quite disappointing.

... okay.
