I'm going to continue gathering info and communicating from my personal account for more transparency, as 'RagnarokDevs' isn't really applicable anymore. That handle is @ExcitedKangaroo - Thanks.
Hey guys, new report method designed to speed up and categorize issues!
Would appreciate it if this was used as the primary reporting method for Ragnarok.

Looked at the entire NW portion of the map, optimized streaming levels in the area, ended up looking great, reduced the avg areas loaded by about 45-60%! I look forward to testing it over the next few weeks! Once its vetted should help console crashes in that area quite a bit!
@SirWetzely Main reason is likely linked to available memory. I have been noting down locations reported in the form, and from conversations here - in a few days I'll make heatmap for me to go and use to help optimize different aspects of the levels in those areas.
Hey, as much as I appreciate the kind words about us, I would very much like to keep any kind of negativity toward WC (Who we now work for) out of any conversations - *Especially* anything directed towards people specifically.
@pmfeline66 Thanks - Some of the other info I gathered highlights those areas as well. When i go over it later in the week I'll give it some extra love.
@pmfeline66 Yeah for sure, no illusions there are issues with the map, especially on xbox. I'm looking at ways to reduce the memory footprint of specific areas, which will help with that. Where do you notice it happening the most(In your singleplayer)?
@weberm35 Would like to reiterate that this is a pointed effort to resolve map related issues, mainly under meshing and specific UM related exploits. If your issue is in that category please enter that in there and I can get it sorted. If its not, I can still check it out.

@stufliggy Wont comment much on this particular thread, but this has several perfect examples from my previous comments. Please take what I said to heart, and put any (map related) issues in the form I posted earlier. I'm going through it on the daily.
@ClocworkSoldier For myself, its hard to stay passionate about something (community engagement) that has sooo much negativity around it, and that turns into a source of frustration from players that can breed more negativity. But- I'm trying to use my free time to be productive, and stay engaged.
@1batch1 There has been action for sure, and more to come. As far as what I can contribute, its helping stop them from being able to exploit in the first place. I trust in the admin team to do their best on the servers.
I've started fixing some of the reported undermesh locations on SE/TI/Rag, and passed along some exploits to the game play team. Thanks for the reports so far.
-- on high population official servers. I could say more, but twitter is probably not the best place for it. Please just be respectful and imagine you don't have the entire picture, because you do not.
