High number of players are invisible
Many fatalities moves are bugged and can be exploided
Many items have broken or missing stats
These are just the big issues.... So far.
So if you enjoy the game - dont log on now...
Funcom is giving the word "patch" a new meaning.

Are you really surpised? Im not sadly...
Unbelievable!!! This patch is a total disaster!! They dont try it first in a Server Test?? My pets (Im a Necromancer LvL36) dont attack!!!
I stopped playing last week because the last week patch made my PC crash when I played 10/15 minutes! Now I return to witness this patch from Hell!!!
At release it was a fairly decent game in my opinion, just needed some more content and decent loot tables. Now it seems as if they are really seeing if they can make the game worse than Vanguard was at release. At least since their collosal screw up with SWG that SOE seems to fix things as time goes by, Someone needs to get the clowns back in the car over at Funcom.

looks like another failed patch from funCON
i give this game even tho CONan isn't a game more like a 50 buck drink coster another 3 months till shutdown.
At least they're consistent...
i look forward to patch day every week......this is honestly more fun than the game was itself. Next week i think we need a thread "What do you think they will break in the next patch?" then whoever gets the most right..wins!
I know you pain!. Like it not enough that we are blind, deaf and cripple from the last "hmm, balance" patch.
But the" invisible players" bug are insane atm!
When I found out about the invisible player bug I couldn't help but maniacally laugh: I'm not sure whether it was despair, or frustration....
At least they're bringing down servers to fix the issue, however, if they manage to break the game this horribly with a normal weekly patch, then I cannot fathom how they will be able to fix these glaring issues in just 5 hours.
Anybody want to make any bets on how long they will extend it?
This is a sequence of characters intended to produce some profound mental effect, but it has failed.
I'll bet you -50 bucks that after this 5hour thing, jesus smiles down upon funcom, and grants them a game that defeats all others, and goes on to earn 15mill+ active subscribers in only several months...
Hahaha, I see what you did there.

I lol'ed so hard there xD
This is getting more and more hilarious .. they were supposed to keep the subcriptions on not to make the peeps cancel,their pcs crash and maybe die by a heartattack while stuggling to leave Tortage ..
Ok...update! After they shutdown the servers last nigh, I today tried my Necro and well...Ihave a good news and a bad news. The good news is that: MY PETS ATTACK AGAIN!!! But...they dont do any damage in instances and in the opne world we cant see the amount of damage that they do!!! I think im going to take a break from this game...
Dam, you made my chocolate milk explode out of my nostrils. Hilarious!

ROFL omfg...so true
I swear I have never seen a game go backwards so fast in the quality department so fast. At launch I was almost optimistic about the game and Funcom's abilities, foolish me.

I was very optimistic about this game for months before its release, you feel foolish, I feel betrayed.

Man, for real? That's gotta suck.
Aching question: Did they actually fix something as well?
Wow, just wow. This was supposed to be the miracle patch. Tested, solid.
FC have really screwed the pooch. I'm sorry guys but 3 horrible patches in a row? How many will some stand for?
Man I am glad I never bought this game. I have been hearing non-stop horror stories from my friends who bought it about how unfinished/broken it was, but I had no idea it had gotten this bad.
I am kind of glad in a way, companies who release games far too early deserve to be vaporized out of existence.
Why were the last two horrible? dont get me wrong i havent played since this latest patch and i'm wandering whether to bother after what i have read, but the two ptches before that just seemed to fix quest bugs and add fps for me.....so what i'm getting at is..is this just the 'same old, same old' players moaning or is it actualy reliable players telling us about actual bugs this time?
And before anyone says..yes i am a fanboy!
i had high hoped for aoc but after first 4 weeks of no improvements and crappy patches .. i gave up canceled my account..
game that feels like beta and allready paying for it.. and every patch breaking more than needs fixing
i hope funcom shuts down after this game coz its a nother fail.. and they didnt learn from vang..
yes. im on the verge of cancelling myself. at least for awhile.
i havent the time right now anyhow, moving to another state soon. im leaving to interview some jobs on tuesday.
someone should be fired or whipped for these massive screw-ups. im just a casual player who cannot even play due to these massive fuck-ups.
sheesh. its too bad. i was really enjoying the game 2-3 weeks ago.
wheres the system restore button on their coding?
-I will subtlety invade your psyche-
I haven't seen any of these invisible players myself (pun intended), but when I logged in on the 19th there was a notice that an emergency patch had been applied to rectify a problem with invisible characters & exploits based on the previous combo move changes. I play on the Euro-Servers, but I am assuming that the USA servers had exactly the same emergency fix.
Whilst I wouldn't try to defend Funcom for making such appalling mistakes in Thursday's patch, unless you are claiming that the issues are still there, they did at least rectify them quickly & maybe the thread title should be changed to "Patch 17/7 temporarily made the game unplayable".
Even though I still generally support the game, I do agree that Thursday's patch was a spectacularly bad PR move. Whilst proper testing should easily have identified the invisibility bug, anticipating the potential combo move exploits only required a bit of basic common sense. Very depressing.
