Ok, what's happening? So many bugs

Crazy amounts of bugs this patch, as well as crazy amount of bugged forum profiles?

And the battlenet launcher constantly disconnecting then asking for password?

Not to this degree.

The invisible Drake mounts during flying and the (by now fixed) missing textures of the Researcher’s Magnifier were the only 2 bugs I actively encountered.

And considering they fixed the invisible Drake bug within a day, unlike other studios that wait entire weeks or months to fix such things, this is actually a AAAA response to game bugs imo.

Doesnt make it better…

FF14 has no PTR and runs with no bugs at launch.

Character list failing to load.
Disconnect on character login.
Cooldown on dungeon finder after completion.
Dungeon RP taking forever to trigger.
Boxes everywhere.
Mass disconnect (with position rollback).

Yes to this degree, there’s been some incredible patch day FUBARs before, it won’t change as they’re pushing their engine to the limit. Clear concise non-abusive bug reports and patience will get you through.

I have a weird bug where, sometimes, when I click on stuff, a big white square appears for half a second on the left side of the screen.

Have you guys had this one yet?

I’m not having any bugs in the game or with battlenet. Forums are a different kettle of fish.

Different game, different engine of which there has been plenty of bugs, I could google some right now.
Why do people who play WoW always claim FF14 is completely infallible when they’ve had plenty of disasters there too?

I play FF14 for 6 years now and WoW since 16 years. The amount of bugs I have encountered over that time I can basically count on my two hands.

The game also has allmost no bugs when it launches something.

Compare that to wow… MC-Dc-Bug exists since MC exists.
Every bigger patch has lots of bugs.

FF14 is not perfect, but bugs are not one of the things that bothers people.

And can you also plz keep in mind that this game has a PTR while FF14 has not?
Which makes it even more hillarious.

This is definitly not acceptable considering how much we pay.

you are comparing apples and oranges, the game engines are entirely different, FF14 has had it’s history of bugs, glitches DDOS attacks etc, yet somehow people on these forums falsely use it as a benchmark that has never ever had anything wrong with it ever.
That is completely false.

I didn’t had any of those. So from my perspective the game is working as intended.

I can compare them because they are both MMORPGs

The engine doesnt excuse a bugs.

FF14s main problem in terms of engine is the server ticks, yet I dont really see people defending them.

With a PTR this game shouldnt have this many bugs especially not bugs that exists over 10 years (hey MC-Bug)

Not an excuse, a reason.
Which it’s not my job to teach you about.
Have a nice day with your false comparisons, I’m out.

Stuck at loading screens. Currently stuck in loading screen after leaving a finished TW dungeon.

I haven’t really found a bug yet, but my gpu fans go bananas in the emerald dream

Least on my nvidia 3060 i found the best move to be cap fps and reduce the power target.

Yeah might not get the best out of it but i like the silence.

My bugged avatar makes me look eccentric

Honestly, not a too bad look on that tabard.
