Strange freighter behaviour

from GalCiv2 Forums
In the latest beta, I've noticed that every time I load up a game, all my current freighters start back at the start of their routes. My current game has a setup with all 11 of my trade routes (playing as the Korx) going from Korx to Iconia, and this resulted in all 11 mini freighters being on the same tile. While this makes them easier to defend, the huge dip in trade revenue every time I load a game is quite noticable!

Could stardock aknowledge there aware of this huge bug and that it's to be fixed in next patch. Its been posted by a number of people in a number of different threads.

Please could Stardock start reading and replying to posts in the beta section. The important stickied threads in here havn't been updated in weeks.

A lot of people here are putting time and effort into finding bugs and flaws in the game. Obviously Stardock are very busy but your giving the impression the beta reports section is being ignored at the moment. Just checking your e-mails for bug reports people have sent you isn't enough.

Prob best to e-mail them. As I said earlier Stardock doesn't seem to be paying much attention to this beta report forum if there lack of responses is anything to go by whether it be weekday or weekend.

eg the the updated bugs list was updated 28th Nov at least 2betas ago, try reading through the threads and counting how many posts there are from a stardock employee I think it's a tiny percentage.

These forums should be a great way for Stardock to find out about bugs but how are we supposed to know if there listening if they extremely rarely reply.

on the forums? edit just checked through your beta posts 3/4 responses you got for your bugs, not bad. I still stand by my point though that stardock are underusing this beta report forum though, many bugs reported by people have gone completely unanswered.

In hindsight I would have started a new thread about my concern had I realised i'd write so much about it.

Just because they aren't responding does not mean they are not reading the forum. You can bet that they are aware of the bugs reported here. If they respond that's a bonus.

Yup. Responses mostly fall into two categories:

1) Need more info to reproduce/fix.

2) It was fixed and the dev doing so remembered or came across the thread, and posted to that effect.

So a lack of response doesn't mean much, and it certainly doesn't mean it wasn't received.
