I don't have any complain on this patch notes, it's too short for me to find any problem.
Overall... It sucks!

[Eleria]

It's kinda sad, that the officials not even know their own patch numbers.
It should be Patch notes v.414. We had 413 last week already.

I think I heard that too as well. I'm lost though, what could a hacker do with the friends list that would be beneficial?

curious... why was the friend's list removed in the first place?

The team here likes to say "server stability" but they don't ever elaborate on the real reason. The ROSE Online friends list (because of the poorly written code behind it which I could go more in depth about) was and is very flawed. When the friends list was active it was possible to log a character into ROSE via means of a proxy that could accept input and commands from various other players if they could manage to send the proper packets to this "packet server" (which was just a middle man i.e player sends commands to packet server > packet server translates it to the proper packets for ROSE to understand > sends these packets to the server). If anyone knows anything about hacking it was similar to a man-in-the-middle attack. Now you wonder OK but how could people send commands to this "packet server" and how would it be beneficial to said player? Well using the friends list any player could add, for example "alex-raw" to their friends list which was the packet server and this would auto-accept peoples friends request. Now a player has the "packet server" added. Now a player could send commands via the friends list to this new friend which was in fact a "packet server" that would send the proper raw-packets to the ROSE server to make it appear that what the user was requesting was legit when in fact it really wasn't. Doing this you could do several things such as:

/jclan name - you could add yourself into any clan without the CM or DMS adding you.
/ztower - create a massive zulie tower
/tele id - teleport to any location for free using hex codes
- Ex /tele 7F for eldon
- Ex /tele 26 for junon
/respawn - spawn at closest respawn
/pk - toggle full PK on / off - this would allow you to PK anyone whether in a PK zone or not
/jparty id - join anyone's party with that proper hex ID
- EX 7d1 02 dc 3a 00 00
/killall - crash all players within chat range

these are just some of the commands this new friend aka the "packet server" would accept and send to the server for you. As you can probably guess this was a HUGE problem and for the very small number of people that knew about this it enabled them to be super godly in ROSE so I am sure everyone can see the problem here. Instead of using a simple fix though to solve this problem they keep delaying the friends list for reasons un-known to me.

On a different note, this evening is my last day in college after 4 years and I graduate next week with my Bachelors so this new graduation event suits me. I would have liked to seen some GA bug fixes, 5 hp bug fix, friends list back etc.. oh well though.

[Ha0z]

Wow you know all this stuff.....maybe it was you who was causing the server instability. KOS AlexTheHacker.

I have reduced my log in duration to 4 hours since last Saturday, really nothing to look forward too!

[maldini]

For the very first time (from wat I can recall)... This patch doesn't have any IM related stuff????

[dbkl]

For the very first time (from wat I can recall)... This patch doesn't have any IM related stuff????

no lucky spin update

[Feuer]

Is anyone else getting these underlined advertisement words on the forums here? For instance the word pogo in maldini's signature is underlined and linked up to a advertising site thing. I've seen this several times now with different words people type here in the forums. Or do I have some lame thing that someone enabled on my browser?

If yo're using chrome just click the wrench go to setting and remove the extension

[Aviv4]

What about the GA bug?
I'm not talking about the sleep/stun bug, but about the bug that you already fixed and just came back somewhy, when we need 30 players to start, and 10vs10 wont work.
It seems like they fixed it, at least mention it in the notes?

Still bugged, there were 30 Waiting, and me (Cleric) and another Cleric from my clan joined as individual, and it didnt start.

[TheThinker]

DC DC DC mayday mayday mayday

[Graziano]
