Though I'm one who mostly criticizes Jagex's updates because of them being either unnecessary or disrupting, this merger was not one of them. Mainly for the fact that the Loyalty Store is getting updated and we won't have to buy RS Coins for most of SGS items. I'm a bit disappointed that the update has been delay but seeing how you're admitting and working on the last minute bugs is a step in the right direction. Too bad you didn't fix EoC and RS3 before releasing it, despite the fact you had Beta servers...

Everyone should calm down. Weekly updates to any software based product is no easy feat. In my experience working as an administrator in a software development firm, weekly updates either get delayed or pulled often as testing finishes up on a monday or tuesday morning in some cases and other documents are buttoned up. The lack of communication most likely originated from someone trying to either get an ETA on how long it would take to fix the bug and based on the ETA could the release still go or not.

They had to decide first if they were going to delay it before they could alert players that they would delay it. There is a thought process and methodolgy around this which takes time to complete. Likewise, they most likely have to speak to other departments and let them know what is going on so that the message we receive is clear, concise, and consistent.

The only irony I am finding about the complaints is that if this issue wasn't found then players would be raging becasue it wasn't found. I feel for Jagex because they are always between a rock and a hardplace. They can never do anything correctly or fast enough.

*buys $50 worth of runecoins to spite all the ragers in this thread*

:)

EDIT: And, also, I wanted to tell Jagex "good job on the (eventual) merger" as well as "thanks for informing us of the delay on the actual website". So what if it was late? We still found out on the day of expected update.
