hotfixes vs updates

[andy194]

hi schul,im just wondering why the hotfix route was not a success in fixing the problem's reported and you decided to release a update. thxs. by the way still the best map out there.

The reason is at the top, in the big green box.

I know that , I meant if u could give us a detailed explanation why the hot fixes weren't a success.thxs

[Vøytek]

Yes, it's there:

Code: Select all

after 8 weeks we are still receiving complaints about frequently reported bugs such as the hole on the E4 in Stockholm

People didn't download the hotfix and were still reporting issues that we fixed for them with that hotfix...

[andy194]

so there will be no more hotfixes , just updates' because hotfixes cause more problem's than they cure?

btw.. its second time that proves full release is better than hotfix..

I cant see the big green box cause I pressed the x lol

yea I think hotfixes wrong way to go now full updates much better

[Vøytek]

We wanted to save your time, because hotfixes are small and full releases are much, much bigger but that didn't work well... And we weren't able to fix that giant flag pole with a hotfix anyway.

@Voytek.. hotfix also means regularity.. no only small size so.. there is better then release patched version, than make new holes with one hotfix for 2-3 months
