With the advent of full release it’s become increasingly clear a major problem with ao is the metric tons of jank that’s left in the game around every feature, and now that dying has actual stakes the amount of it is becoming intolerable, Vetex should dedicate a full update after fr purely to recoding old systems who’s issues stem from Roblox and fixing ones who’s issues stem from the game.

Leave flying whales in though that’s a staple of the series

Anyway feel free to compile a list of annoying bugs to fix

I hope it’s just a pair of tiny bird wings on top of his head or something

just give him hermes helmet but make it so it flies really fast because of it :sob:

But it must be appropriately sized for a human so it’s comically small on the whale, also it needs to have a string or something going around its head to hold it in place

it will be too much re zero ripoff but i hope they do design like this

pleese make ship collision solid so you can’t get stuck in it

unironically might as well turn them into a feature lmao

I kid you not, this is nearly cyberpunk levels of release.

Do beaware, this list is just some things I have seen here and there, I haven’t specifically gone out to see the bugs… and the petition likely won’t do anything, as feature updates are way more profitable and player-friendly than back-end updates, so we will likely have to wait for a feature update before we get any kind of fixes.

  • There’s a bug where, rarely, you can’t steer your ship.
  • Sometimes, your Weapon skills just get voided after unequipping them (Perhaps only for skills that aren’t made yet, even if so, it shouldn’t outright remove them.)
  • The game, for some reason,n doesn’t load islands like it’s keeping your position at a specific point but letting your character move.
    • I ran into this when I fought Hallbjorn, where, re after everything, South of Palo Town was completely unloaded, REALLY bad since I had both a legendary and mythical chart that I unfortunately couldn’t use, as I had to reset.
  • I know it’s fixed, but the fact that full-release had banks take all of your money without giving it back is a crime alone, granted, it’s the bank, they do that already, but you get my point.
  • Flying whales? What the fuck happened? Why are the whales still flying multiple hotfixes after full release?
    • This doesn’t mean I don’t want them to stay; they give me security, the way a god watches over a land, they watch over the ocean.
  • This isn’t a bug, but a thing that needs to be addressed; the performance is god-awful, I shouldn’t be lagging when I have a Ryzen 9 3950x and an RTX 3080 10GB.
    • At this point, I can only suspect it’s because all of the islands are still loaded, because when I was at Skyhall Kingdom, I could deadass look down and see multiple islands fully loaded, buildings still at full detail.

Extra

  • I recon many have run into the ‘can’t drink potion bug’, all I’ve seen is that I couldn’t drink a mystery potion when I had recovery, otherwise I could do it just fine.
    • I’m not a smartypants on the logic, but I suspect the ‘allow to drink’ permissioning is messed up.

at this point flying whales are the “Removed Herobrine” of AO

And why hasn’t clan building been updated since it came out, it is sooo janky to work with

And and, WHY has there been more issues w every hotfix since full release?

This hard.

I’m looking through the list, and it doesn’t mention whales or them flying in the air… are whales counted as sea monsters? They behave quite differently.

Every time I go into Nimbus Sea via the ship way (not teleporting there with the continue menu) I end up in the sky, fully loaded, and I have to reset.

Very old one, I think it may occour if your character is moving when they take the wheel

if flying = true;

don’t
