Hi Player Experience Team, I am lead to believe you guys now have a significant say in what is prioritised in terms of QOL and bug fixing. With that in mind, I would like to have an open discussion with you and the community about the importance of maintaining your flagship content. Since 4.0 we have seen significant peices of flagship content added to the game, specifically: Contested Zones, Hathor, Stormbreaker, ASD Hyperion, Tech Smugglers, Rock Breaker, TSG and now Seige. Currently (as of 4.10 Hotfix Branch), out of those 8 peices content with what I can only imagine is thousands of development hours invested in them, a grand total of 3 (CZ's, Hyperion and Seige) are completable. I'm not talking bug free, im talking just able to be reliably finished, and unfortunatley this patch is not some unusual outlier. Content is introduced, enjoyed for a patch or two until it breaks and is never fixed. Hathor - All IC's for this are currently archived or do not reach the minimum number of contributions, people can not be bothered reporting it anymore. This works exactly ONCE after a shard restart as PAF's are not resetting correctly, resulting in no batteries requried. additionaly almost all doors get stuck open after having a keycard inserted and the OLP supervisor keycard boss I have never seen spawn since the original release patch. Stormbreaker (https://issue-council.robertsspaceindustries.com/projects/STAR-CITIZEN/issues/STARC-192834)- This works exactly ONCE after a shard restart as Lazerus sites are not resetting correctly. This results in no egg required to complete the mission spawning. This has been raised in January took until two months ago to be look at by QA and compelete radio silence since. Additionally, the bug allowing ships to fly to the Lazerus locations is back again, and the maintainace lockers won't open, and haven't for as long as I remember. Tech Smugglers - (https://issue-council.robertsspaceindustries.com/projects/STAR-CITIZEN/issues/STARC-219400)- Warehouse access is broken yet again in this patch. The keycards now correctly fill to 100% only to be inserted into the terminal, become stuck in there and do not call the warehouse elevator. This is about the 5th IC report on this issue as it keeps recurring every patch in new and exctiting ways. Rock Breaker (https://issue-council.robertsspaceindustries.com/projects/STAR-CITIZEN/issues/STARC-202647, https://issue-council.robertsspaceindustries.com/projects/STAR-CITIZEN/issues/STARC-212080, https://issue-council.robertsspaceindustries.com/projects/STAR-CITIZEN/issues/STARC-218033) - More than I list here, but broken in many different ways. Exclusive's will not complete after entering the asteriod. Shared's do not reset so the rock is already cracked at all locations after a few days. No sadaryx spawning. Invisible geometry causing ships on pads to explode. TSG - (https://issue-council.robertsspaceindustries.com/projects/STAR-CITIZEN/issues/STARC-219339)- Tranquility does not spawn. This was marked as Fixed and is still clearly broken. And come 4.11 it will likley be Seige too. The existing player experience of old flagship content becoming almost immidiatley unplayable is awful. The new player experience, as witnessed multiple times, is to turn the game off. It's worse than it not being there at all as you end up wasting time and patience even attemping it. So many nights of getting everyone together only to be roadblocked by multiple peices of content in a single play session. I can't speak for everyone (maybe I'm an outlier here so please sound off below on if you agree, or feel differently) but I believe that old flagship content being unable to be completed for two consecutive patches should be a critical blocker to a patch release. For instance, if Stormbreaker is broken this patch, it needs to be fixed in the following patch or the patch does not go. This gives room for hard to crack issues while ensuring that content is maintained and actually tested to still be working prior to getting it in our hands. As always I appreciate the hard work, but this has gotten to the point that you need to get a handle on maintaining existing content as the list is only going to get longer on the road to 1.0.
