EQII Associate Producer Jennifer Kirstie Gerull gives us a little Hotfix 101 in her latest EQ2 Dev Blog entry..
So once we have a complete build, I push another button and it gets put up onto a server. If Im lucky Ill have remembered to email out to people that the server is coming down for an update. If youve ever been on early in the morning and the server came down and we forgot to broadcast, thats what its like in the office if I forget to send the email about the server coming down. A few times Ive heard people groaning and making unhappy noises from halfway across office floor just after I push the button, so I try to avoid that as much as possible.
File this in the "The More You Know" file for the next time you wonder what exactly is a hotfix and why o why is it interrupting my gaming time?!
