Surprise, a Dev did read this.
1. I will look into this.
2. Yes, the patches are being pushed much too fast to test. We are moving to a more consistent patch schedule. Bug fixes, performance upgrades, etc. should be staying on test closer to a week with new features closer to 3 - 4 weeks for proper testing.
3. Another thing I need to look into.
4. Character transfers are being coded in order for us to do the server merges. After the server merges, we will set up a way for players to copy their characters to test.
Feel free to post the rest of the ideas floating around in your head.
any and all feedback is appreciated.
