This isnt like an Access database or some shit.
As unforgiving as I am towards blizzard for being fucktards, I'm not so daft as to say that their technical infrastructure is simple. Complexity is not, however, an excuse, not when they are making the kind of money on wow that they are.
You are upset, but for the wrong reason: dont be mad because it should be simple and they are saying that its not, be mad because it should be in the game for the amount of money they make and its not. |
I quoted this because it was the exact same thing I was thinking. Synching up the AHs across cities is a DBAs worst nightmare. I'm not saying that they shouldn't be able to do it, but dear
God they have bigger fish to fry right now. For all of the other software engineers out there, do a cost/benefit analysis of getting these gigantic systems to sync up. On a scale of 100 i'd say 80 difficulty with a 20 benifit. No thank you.
