"macro" slice - how is this not fixed yet?

BigES · December 2016

Macro slices still exist. I can still get infinitely locked into casting an ability (animation) and immediately zerg down an opponent and deal all of my damage in one second... who is completely defenseless.

This should be a hotfix not a "we'll get to it later" bug. Stop piddling around with personalities and fix our combat mechanics.

So?

Same as every other bug, no matter it's impact on the game. This is just one more thing contributing to Cyrodiil emptying out.

If it isn't benefitting people through mat grinding/exp grinding (insta-respawn NPCs, Writ duping via bankers, etc) then it's a non-priority.

I just can't fathom why certain Devs aren't getting fired at this point. I know of a couple Forum users here that could do a better job than these guys.

You would even find people in kindergarten who would do a better job. Or at least they wouldn't cause such a harm to the game...

To stay on topic:
The company doesn't care about PVP. Maybe some devs do, others don't (looking at you, Wrobler). But in the end it's a management decision, which bugs are being fixed or which things are being implemented.
And yes, the overall quality of the produced code could be way better. It could be better tested and there could be better design decisions. But again, in the end it's the fault of the management.

I legitimately don't think ZOS cares. Popular streamers have posted videos showing people how to do it... nothing happens to them, nothing happens in game.

Personally I think their staff with the technical capability to fix this stuff is limited to probably 1 or 2 people tops. Existing staff clearly has trouble if involves modifying game code that was developed by the people before them.

They can develop new areas, new skins, new mounts, and other things much easier/faster so that's where they devote their time. Because they don't have the expertise to actually fix existing stuff.
