Forum suggestion

I don't think I'm the only one when I say that there are many duplicate bugs in the bug forum. I'm suggesting a pinned thread where the devs write a list with acknowledged bugs and issues so that hopefully there won't be as many threads to look through, which would make it easier to register new bugs and issues.

    There are too many reasons why that isn't gonna happen lol. What would be nice though is a separate 'bug report' page alongside the general discussion page, and for them to have as much input as possible on posts there, if just to say "we are aware of this" or "we've added this to our bug tracker, thanks" or "this is fixed and will be in the next build". etc.

    But I think their whole team is so busy with actually developing that they don't really have time for forum upkeep to that degree ^^

    see the Subnautica Bug Reporting section of the forum (I always forget that one...).

    Simu, I was in fact talking about the bug reporting section, I just wanted a locked sticky thread to help users see what has been reported.
    I can understand that the entire team is working their asses off building the game, so if they need manpower to keep the forum up to date (and the steam pages too), I would be more than willing to help out. I had something like this in mind:

    Fixed
    Being Fixed
    Acknowledged

    Graphics Issues
    - Terrain not loading
    - Flickering

    Audio Issues
    - No sound from Peepers
    - Random explosion sound

    Technical issues
    - Crashing
    - BSOD
    - Not loading save

    Gameplay
    - Able to weld glass in Cyclops
    - Terraformer abnomaly
    - Seamoth disappearing

    It doesn't have to be whole lot to it, just so other people can go to this pinned thread and see if their issue is already listed so that we don't have 20 threads about crashing because the game runs out of memory. This would help clean the bug reporting section for duplicates and it would be easier to spot new bugs.

    We would also need to have a couple of people looking at the in game feedback since so many things are submitted all the time. This would be the biggest time consumer, but if it can help the devs getting a better overview of whats in need of a fix, I'm all in for it.
