Oh my gawd... I lost a weekend of playtime!!!!111
Seriously, people... you need to sort your priorities (and I don't mean: get a life).
Yeah, I've lost about all my progress from that weekend, so what? To me that means, I lost like 40% of my progress. Well... shit happens. Sure, I was rather angry at it as well, but the reason is understandable. Yeah, it's the dev's fault for rushing the update (after all, Conqueror_Worm said himself, that the DB-work had to be rushed). Still, such mistakes do happen, and I am rather sure, none of them sat in fron of their comp (or wherever), laughing over our 'wasted' playtime.
Obviously none of you plays this game just for the fun of it. Why is it all about levels and items and gold as soon as a game provides such? Seems like all of you, who are raging about losing progress didn't play that game just to play it.
To the old players... hhow often did you have that happen since this mod was released? I guess, it was the first time. If it would happen like every few weeks, I would understand the anger... but like this?
It is about impossible to sort everyones items out manually, unless you get paid for it. And if you want to complain, that the devs don't do something like: tell us what you had and we will give it back to you - well, complain to the players who would take advantage of such a situation and claim to have stuff, they never had, not to the devs. If they would do such a thing, they would be bombed by requests of people, who claim to have had stuff, they never ever actually had. Thats just how it goes.
So they did the only rational thing: set everyone back to the last update. Which is farther back than i hoped but again.... shit happens.
I was looking forward to all that raging, because I knew it would happen. It always happens. And I hope, you devs don't let it get to you.
In this sense:
Lets enjoy playing this great mod and lets just hope, it never happens again like this.
