As you may be aware we had a bug in the game which occasionally hit people for high numbers at random causing them to die.
This has now been fixed and we apologise for any inconvenience caused.

We will NOT be doing a roll back.

This bug happens in quite specific areas under very specific circumastances. It was actually very obscure and not something which we'd have been able to pick up under normal testing.

It has actually been in the game for a little while (it's definitly been in longer than the new engine update) and we hadn't heard anything about until this morning.

We do not believe many people at all have been affected in a way which lost them valuable items. - Hence why I say there will be no roll back.

The only reason that it suddenly came to a head in the last couple of hours is because suddenly it became widely known and people started standing around on mass in the affected areas to see people die.
Obviously most these people would have bought three or less valuable items, so those deaths don't really count.

We simply can't refund lost items. Sorry this has always been our policy - they'll just be to many people making false claims on this, especially those who have actually died due to their own carelessness and decide to try it on to get their items back,
It's just not going to be possible to tell who's lying and who's not.

I am happy to say this had no affect on me, nor anyone that I know. So yeah, I think a rollback will hurt more than satisfy. The majority have gained over the past weeks it was out.

I do feel sorry for those who actually did lose their valuable items though.

How do you feel about this? Did it affect you? Do you know anyone that got hurt by it? Please share your thoughts and stories :)
