Nope, I'm one of those crazy folks who really doesn't care when a patch comes, so long as it's for the better of the game, and so long as it doesn't look like time was wasted. Congratulations on the assumption though, clearly you have an amazing forum prowess and are leagues ahead of people in their own beliefs.

In that sense, would you be happy to wait 6 years for a 15 gig sized patch which got EVERYTHING done in one blow? No, I didnt think so. You're right about having concerns about bug issues, but did you consider that it is something they are addressing to us now, to show they are working on them?

Show me an MMO without bugs, I would be interested in seeing this heavens delight

Show me another high end gaming company who's resolution to a known issue is "Just force close the application, it'll be alright."

Sorry, but something like this should have been addressed prior to patching, I would much rather lose five *** side quests than have to worry about my game locking up on a loading screen.

Game crashing > content.

well tbh it's not been that much of an issue (with myself at least). During playing this game i have crashed on an extreamly rare occasion. With this in mind, I think it is fair to say it's not on the top of their priorities.

Imagine if for th next 6 months, they fixed all the game bugs. Ok, you have a no bug game. But then they add content and changes. Guess what, BUGS! They need to fix the bugs as they work along the changes. Otherwise all the work they done before hand is pointless.

I for one am happy with the changes in this patch (cannot wait to try them out ingame of course), and I think picking holes in a couple of glitches here and there is ungreatful and disrespectful to the overhaul thats being implimented here.

I never said the changes were bad. In fact, I said I was looking forward to all of the changes. I'm upset at the fact that a gaming company of such "apparent" standard is suggesting force closure of the application to resolve a bug. That's very unprofessional. You can continue on your asinine ranting, but my issue is valid.

You're "upset"?! Surely any realistic minded person would realise that bugs are a constant battle with MMO's. Take Wow for example. Even after many years they are still tackling bugs. And why is this? Because the changes they make create them.

If you want a game without bugs....wait, I'm pretty sure there isnt a game without at least a single bug or glitch in it. Even single player ones.

As for your tonsil comment, there is no need to get nasty. Besides, there are many things SE have released which I dislike. Although I am not prepared to sit here and name each one in tern and derail this particular thread.

My point is, the patch has many pros which FAR outweigh the cons. Picking up on a couple of bug issues is nit picking and is finding a reason to dislike something.

Each patch released so far has listed known bugs. I fail to see why this is a concern now, rather than 4-5 patches back?

Also, as for your concern, you failed to mention that it only suggests this IF the loading screen takes more than 5 minutes to load. If that is the case, I would say there is a major issue already. I have yet to come across any game where this is considered normal.
