As a routine World of Warcraft<\/a> player, I’ve been pretty warm on Midnight\u2014at the very least, the offerings it provided on launch all seemed well put together, with a few asterisks. Those asterisks are starting to bog down the sentences they’re attached to, though, as the game’s latest patch, 12.0.5, is utterly rife with bugs. Some small, some large, and some just completely baffling.<\/p>\n

We’ve already reported on the new prop hunt decor mode getting ruined by players with access to the “track humanoids” ability<\/a> or certain consumables, but if you happen to either do too well (or too poorly) in a round, you’ll also get punished for not participating. Which seems to me a pretty glaring oversight, given prop hunt incentivises you to, you know, stay still once you’ve found a hiding spot. It’s the entire point of hide and seek.<\/p>\n

If you’re too good at hiding in decor duel, you get flagged as not participating and don’t get rewards even if you win<\/a> from r\/wow<\/a><\/p><\/blockquote>\n
