Is this patch DF's saving grace?

You guys think that this patch will rescue Aventurine from the fast sinking ship that is their games launch? The state the game is in now is barely playable and insanely easy to exploit. People are acquiring things that we were told would take months to get.....
So what do you guys think? Will this patch save them? And if it does pull them out of this mess by making the game playable, can you forgive these past few years, ESPECIALLY the last few weeks?

theres no such thing as a miracle patch...we learned that from Funcom.
except most of the issues where caused by the sync issue
and months to get what? i wouldnt be surprised if they took everyones clan city away
Or a 10-minute patch, like the in-game message said...
All it needs to do is fix the current sync issue.
The game will be playable after the patch. But I can almost gurantee you that there is still going to be bugged mobs. There was all through beta.
No ,i think it will keep them afloat for a few more days but if they cant get the eqiup to properly release the software and hold the client base that obvioulsy wants on, they can patch all they want
except most of the issues where caused by the sync issue
if this is the case i will accept it, but experience taught us anything, is that there is no one miracle patch, and this will be an uphill battle for AV this month. They basically have 32 days left to get the game in order. Otherwise, i dont see many people resubbing. So can they do it? maybe....but the game hanging on one patch....i wouldnt count on it.

while you are partly correct...
Downto your views are so skewed by your fanboyism it is hard to have any credibility in what you say. Although I must say you have been doing better. Rehab working for ya then I take it?
Says you!
AoC's miracle patch fixed the game, made me lose 20 lbs and grew my hair back!
Seriously though, the only miracle about most launch era patches is that the servers themselves dont burst into flames.
If anything I'm willing to bet on a ratio of 1:10. For every issue they fix in this patch, ten more will appear.
There are 3 types of people in the world.
1.) Those who make things happen
2.) Those who watch things happen
3.) And those who wonder "What the %#*& just happened?!"
Bingo. Just admit that they f-ed up like a man and move on. Disguising their embarassing attempt at remote success just adds self-insult to injury.
No miracle patch. They don't exist.
At the best, it'll make the game playable and generally smooth, allowing them to then focus on gameplay elements that need work.
Since there were many exploits used with the sync issue, I think a wipe would be needed to "wipe the slate clean". Alot of people used these exploits to build up their cities, which, I thought, was supposed to take months. And the issues with billing and forums also need to be addressed. Just my opinion...
They wont wipe the servers...it would negate the whole reason why people preordered then. You would have ALOT more pissed off people.

I completely agree here. I hate the fact they won't fess up to anything, and that they remove themself from any means of contact we have with them. They even auto reply to our support tickets with generic responses....
This company is one of the worst I've seen in a very long time.
Aventurine=NPCube?
Well I hate to hop on that boat but its starting to look like it. Closing every means of contacting them is a HUGE red flag. Oh and the takign people's money and not letting them play....
I would hope they have enough sense to do a server wipe. I have petitioned for it and I know a lot of others who have too. The exploits used are just ridiculous. My guild even has enough money to claim our city and we are all camped by it but the servers came down and we never made it back with the shard. So its not that we don't want people ahead of us. I just think that with all the exploiting going on everything needs to be brought back to square one. We were always told to look at it as an open beta, yes? Well then wipe the servers pre-post-re-launch.....

"pre-post-re-launch" Priceless...
I think that if they did a wipe it would probably be a good thing; however, that could upset those who are already in and have put all that time into the "Real Game". What they should do that would please both crowds though, is to wipe all Currency atleast down to the starting point or make it "X" amount of gold per skill gained so that it would be equal, just not rediculous.

People have things they said would take months to get? Really? Like what? And yes almost all of the issues making it unplayable are the sync issues (glitching around, invis shit, glitched mobs, laggy, glitched players ect..) which they fixed in single patches in beta. Obviously they did not completly fix it in beta as has been resurfacing after major patches in beta and now release.
And no they will not restart the server. Alot/ most of the clans farmed their money to get cities without exploiting. Anything synched out and killed now will be of little significance later in the game. The only thing that would matter is city claims, but you can always take those from clans that are not strong enough to hold them(or reroll on a new server).

it was working good as hell in beta i think when they enabled everything it caused issues the patch was 350 mb so i guess it broke it again
What, a 10,000 gold clanstone? Get real man. That's all that anyone accomplished in the first 24 hours and that was from guilds who had experienced DF players in them.
Get real man. I know you're angry but at least be honest with your criticisms.

I must disagree with you here. In my experience, when an exploit was found in a game, the culprits were often banned, if not the whole guild. If it was more of a widespread exploit, a rollback was issued. I think a wipe would be the most reasonable and "fair" thing to do.

From my understanding the "exploit" is from desynced mobs not fighting back. This is not really an exploit and is not the fault of the players that the servers were screwed up.
They are not going to do a rollback or anything of the sort. To do so would be seen as pissing in the face of players who had to experience terrible gameplay due to sync issues.

I agree that its not the fault of players, but, there is an exploit, one that, apparently, is being abused alot. I don't think it would be "fair" to the people not able to login or had other issues, to come into a game where people abused an exploit to get ahead, gold or otherwise. I think a wipe would level the playing field. It shouldn't "piss" off the people that experience the "terrible gameplay" unless they got ahead using said exploit. Just my opinion...

Why would they do that if people have shit loads of money from these exploits? They would just buy them right back up.
If the exploits(attacking desynced mobs) are as widespread as some people are claiming, which is doubtful, (people making 3k gold an hour and banking tons of sets of armor) I would not be adverse to a wipe. But even then it will not matter in a few weeks either way.
