Why SOGA when there are more important things to fix?

[Artorio]

<DIV>MY question is why do we need alternate character models when there are much bigger issues?  The drakota zone for the deception quest in Feerrott is still buggy as hell.  Nek Castle the Return, you can't get past the first sister.  There is a problem now where people get randomly booted to the character select screen when running through zones.  Harvest bots run rampant in SS.  This is just a small list of problems in the game right now, and we are getting alternate character models for npcs.  Sometimes I have to question what SOE is thinking when they update things in the game.  Then I question the player base on whether enough of us /bug every problem we find.  I don't play on the test server, but I keep up on these boards as much as I can to see what is in store for us.  I'm mainly wondering what the testers think of all this.  Should they focus more on fixing broken content, or do you like that we are getting different looking npcs?</DIV>

<P>SOE had nothing to do with the SOGA models. They were designed and created by a third party as I recall, and that was for the asian launch of the game; all SOE is doing is adding them to the U.S. version. So in fact, SOE put almost no time of their own into the SOGA models.</P> <P>EDIT: Oh...and creating new character models would have been the job of the art department anyway; they don't fix game-related bugs to begin with.</P> <P>Message Edited by Fellgaze on <SPAN class=date_text>10-30-2005</SPAN> <SPAN class=time_text>04:11 AM</SPAN></P><p>Message Edited by Fellgaze on <span class=date_text>10-30-2005</span> <span class=time_text>04:12 AM</span>
