Just as the title,is WOW 3.0.8 Patch is a Disaster? Now let's look at the news.
What should have been a joyous occasion (the first big patch since Wrath
of the Lich King launched) has turned into something bad. Like, just this
side of "watching footage of the burning Hindenburg while Ride of the
Valkyries plays and someone recites Thus Spoke Zarathustra" bad.
We just discussed the fact that Arenas have been closed on the live servers, but
there are a lot of other problems that have World of Warcraft players
(rightfully) up in arms. The most vicious of these bugs was undoubtedly the Lake
Wintergrasp glitch - one that literally made WoW unplayable for some
time earlier today. The developers hotfixed a patch out that stopped the hard
crashes, but there are still many, many frustrations facing players used to a
high quality product from the Blizzard developers.
"Unbearable" lag,
disconnects during raid fights, high-level class imbalances, graphical bugs ...
the list goes on. Our sister site is even frustratedly noting that longstanding
bugs slated to be fixed with this patch simply weren't ... and the bugs weren't
even addressed in the patch notes the way you'd have expected. Read on through
to WoW Insider's post about these issues for the full list and their frustrated
request for better Quality Assurance in the future. Here at Massively we
definitely hope you WoW players soon return to the polished product we
all know Blizzard is capable of. In the meantime, let us know. What the heck do
you think went wrong this time?
