Anthem Dev Tracker

You can probably get a little more attention if you kind of mention them in posts like /u/UNTDrew if they have the setting turned on

But honestly I wish if they saw a reddit post they wanted to reply to they would just kind of copy/paste or rephrase the comment and also answer it in a tweet. Dont even link back to reddit. This sub is great but most of reddit is a dumpster fire. If they 'moved' here I feel the aggressive people would just follow.

Huh, that is interesting.

So if I understand from other posts correctly you have a simulator that drops items (I'm guessing for an individual or does it simulate a team?) And you track that to make sure the percentages are where you want them as well as the correct type.

Then you also have live metrics telling you in broad terms how closely for the entire population those numbers are matching up?

So even with those tools the bug, which my friend and I have experienced though my GF has not can only be reproduced at scale?

I actually find that kind of cool.

I know you're busy but, have their been similar bugs you've found and in general terms do you know why tools for finding them didn't work and you needed to rely on reports on a massive scale to track them down?

Got mad love and respect for you Drew, but sigh I don't want to hate or say thanks for a hotfix that shouldn't have been necessary in the first place. I just wanted to say I know the team there at Bioware is doing their best and there are clearly things out of your control that are causing all these problems. It's happening like clockwork at this point, but I dont feel cheated out of the money I spent for this game cause at it's core Anthem it is a one of a kind gem (gave me 84hrs of great times and may come back in the near future, depending on it's health.

Whatever problems are holding Anthem back I hope they get resolved, at the moment I am not angry. I'm just dissapointed in Bioware as a team and as a consumer and fan I still have faith in you guy's, I just don't have the same confidence I initially had and always did in Biowares ability to follow through. With issue after issue and patches for the issues that patches created, it's tiring really.

I'm sorry, I still don't follow - do you currently intend to make this change in the future or not?

Is the Apex creature drop change still planned for inclusion in an update, or did you determine not to increase the drops?

I have to agree here, this is prominent info! (although I also appreciate it is posted here)

EDIT: NVM, realized it's on Twitter too and all that jazz

What about legendary components for the wrong class?

I'm at 200 hours played. 2 of the classes I play have more legendary components than the one I do play.

It's awful. I need armor and shields on my main in order to progress.

This update brought a lot of good but also some bad:

1. Loot is no longer instanced. So when someone picks up a masterwork for them but it’s a blue for you it goes into your limited loot slots. I’m sure this is a consequence of making the new chests be non-instanced.

2. Other players can pick up health and ammo drops that used to be instanced.

3. Health bug is still present. I’ve had it in two out of four missions. But that is an improvement so far.

4. GM1+ stronghold bosses no longer drop the guaranteed masterwork. This is clearly unintentional and will hopefully be fixed.

This is not a salty post, just providing my observations. This is an overall good if not great update. It just seems some key things were missed in QA. Again, not being salty just presenting my observations. The game is still great and fun.
