The purpose of the issue council is to provide feedback on Star citizen bugs etc Now not many players who play SC ever come to the Website , let alone take their time to find the issue council section (you really have to explore the website to find it) Now i don't know for a fact if CIG rely on this space to get bug and issue feedback or if they have their own testers or how they run this operation but lets assume they only and fully rely on the issue council . now as i said 90% of players who play star citizen most likely dont use the website or even know where to find bug reports , so there would not be much people doing reports on issues that have been plaguing new and old players for months - years , Most people including me will come across a issue or bug and just quit and play something else and ''Hope'' to come back again in a few months or weeks and its fixed. Now in the case that they only rely on the player base to make these reports , this will explain why issues persist for months even YEARS! for example my screenshot attachment , everyone knows about this issue right? yes im sure they do! , but only 7 upvotes in almost a month !??!? 7!! 7 people took their time to come and upvote this very well know grinded mission. I in fact went to global chat to ask who has this issue and of course maaaany people humbled and mumbled ''for years its been a issue'' and i asked them if they upvoted it , not a single person said yes , in fact most said '' its not a big issue'' ?? its not a big issue? let me explain some common sense here 1 - Its i would say in the starter phase of a players journey most likely targeting new players or old who just rage quite a lot and wait out the storm 2 - It needs to leave a working and stable impression especially for new players as they are the ones CIG need to impress and keep around new players that come across this issue will leave faster than old players that know what else is out there to do , So back to my point Lets say CIG does have a tester or testers , i wont go in depth here because surely if they did this issue would not be persisting ever since this mission was created and designed which is 3 years now i think? I mean it was reworked in terms of the faction giving the mission but everything stayed the same , NPC spawns yet no Drug spawns . ------ Possible solutions to this problem -------- First of all only 1% of Star Citizen fans actually bother to come to the website at all , read some Spectrum Generals and report on issue council And if CIG only relies on us to make reports well then ,,,, issues will take decades to fix Make it easier and more engaging for players to make bug reports , perhaps during or after a contract even in the mobiglass add a bug report feature or a prompt so that you can get all the data of issues for that mission and know to fix it Please don't rely on your players and backers to make reports , almost no one cares and no one will bother , we want the Product but most wont lift a finger to help you make it Do not underestimate these ''small'' / ''no priority'' issues seriously do not underestimate small issues , every small issue adds up and even the smallest detail or QOL will effect your game in a big way or even the mindset of your backers and players See you in the Verse o7
