A Known Issues stickied thread would help a lot

With the posting of what is in the bug fix patch coming today the forums have exploded with claims of nerfs and how EA/CG has lied to everyone and such.
If there was an ongoing known issues thread in the Bugs section of the forums where the devs identified issues that are known but aren't warranting immediate attention, it might (I'm hoping) help keep the peace more down the line.
I know other games have this option on the forums and it does help. People can see early on that the advantage a specific character is getting is not the intended effect and can decide for themselves if they want to spend time and effort on that character.

I understand that it won't catch all issues but I think it could help.

    @Vampire_X Thanks for the links. The first one is on the right track but it's still just a listing of what was recently changed. My suggestion was one where they list issues that are not currently WAI but are not being worked on at the moment.

    Your second link needs to be corrected, it looks like you posted it twice and broke the link but I am familiar with the bugs section of the forums.

    Great points! An ongoing history thread of all verified bugs and an ETA for when it will be fixed would solve a lot of issues and allow players to make MORE informed decisions.

    More to the point, in most cases, Kozi just says, this has been flagged as a bug and forwarded to the team for investigation. Sometimes Kozi isn't even sure if its a bug or not. Then, bam, its fixed with no clarification in between.

    Unfortunately the bugs bin post has nothing on it except tomorrow's update. Even old bugs that were flagged and have yet to be fixed.

    If i dont remember bad, before the last update there was listed the "not fixed yet" section, where a lot of bugs were listed (like Wedge "red lead" and ig88 healing inm.)
    Maybe there's no more "not fixed yet".

    That's what the bug bin uses to be.
    Don't be a ****(4), and follow forum guidelines.

    Ahh, that makes sense. I only looked this morning after reading all the complaint posts and it was just listing what has been/will be changed with the next patch. I'll keep an eye on the bug bin from now on.

    Unfortunately there are still many many unfixed bugs

    As been hit upon on multiple occasions, we, here, are just the tip of the iceberg. Toons that are not WAI really need to be listed In-Game so everyone can make informed decisions.

    People are going to be doign their first Rancor with Zader after the update and then I think you're going to see a proliferation of new posters asking. w. t. f. (I've been wrong many times, so I guess we'll see)

    Mistakes happen, it's okay, but give everyone a heads up. Direct, not buried, and does not require leaving the game for a website to see. You've made a number of QoL improvements, I think this could be the next one.

    I'd like them to move the Bugs Bin section right under News, Game Updates, and Dev Updates, so that the players who come to the forum, or only read game updates, can be more aware of current issues.
