JE7 Task 3

Classification of Bugs: 

Class A:

The severity of this bug its really high, Class A bugs are the most "dangerous" bugs that can threaten any game.  

They are any bug that causes the game to crash or hang, anything that will stop the player from completing the game.
These are the worst bugs that can be find.

Example: In this example the player can't interact with anything only being able to move around.





Class B: 

Any bug that can hinder the game but it doesn't stop the player from completing the level or product.
They are not as bad as Type A but they are difficult to work with. 

Class C: 

Class C are any type of bug that can cause a problem but not hinder the player or cause any major issue within Gameplay

The majority of C class bugs are graphical, implies character or environment texture. 

An example could be, No Faces Bug - Assassin's Creed

This bug shows the game is affected but it does not hinder the player, the gameplay is just corrupted by the lack of textures within the character development.


Legal Bugs:

Any bug that could create a legal and major issue wit any other company or break copyright or digital laws.

To have any other logo from a Business/Brand or Brand/Business information in the game you will have to get the permission if it is classified as Legal bug it has to be fixed or it will create problems within both entities. 

Performance Bugs: 

These bugs make the performance of the game to drop, examples will be bugs that for example make the game to lag even though the game is optimized and you can run, in these case the bug is affecting the frame rate which causes the lag.

An example would be the Performance bug of Assassin's Creed Unity: The frame rates were lower than what was expected in crowd size in within the game, this is a big problem while playing the game.

Example: If the player is trying to escape through crows and has problem with the frame rate and the performance starts going lower and lower it could affect the gameplay.   


Collision Bugs: 


Any bug that is related to the collision within the game, an example would be a character clipping through an object.
