Can we get a separate sub section to report bugs/glitches?

<div class="IPBDescription">Like on these forums</div>Since the game is coming near(6 months or so out) its release I think a bug section on the forums would be the most ideal place for them.
Also since not much content is being added the developers main prioritization I think would be fixing the bugs and optimizing the game.


It would be easier to see and track if someone else is having the same bug or glitch problems and they can add to that post.
Other games and game companies do this and it works quite well.
I would make it a separate section from technical support strictly meant for bugs and glitches in the game.

I know the getsatifaction.com one but not sure how many people use that to report bugs
I think a lot more bugs will get reported if there was a section on the official NS2 forums.

It would help if the bugs were reported on getsatisfaction, as the devs look out for the bugs there quite often. But a bug forum isn't a bad suggestion at all :)

Yea that is from when the game was in alpha phase and not many people at all post there.
They should push to have people post on their forums now as it will bring more attention in I think.
Since the game is basically content complete save a few things it would be good to get as many posts about the bugs as possible.
It might make solving the bugs and glitches much easier for UWE as fixing bugs they might not even know about is pretty difficult.

Also a basic sticky on how to report a bug(if they introduce a new subsection) would help them a ton as well I think.
They could skim through the post if it was laid out easy to read and simple

Any plans on adding this?

This is still the best way. Even better, you can access getsatisfaction from ingame (F1). Getsatisfaction is also tied in to the internal bug tracking system. Replies may not show up there much, but it is read.
