    Game won't launch

    in General Discussion

    Posted

    Since nobody seems to have mentioned this yet, I just came here to say that I've tried to log in twice and had this issue.

     

    When I went to the task manager to end task the SWTOR application after it hung on the load screen, I noticed both times there were *two* instances of swtor.exe running. Maybe this is causing the issue since you can only have one instance of the game going at once?

     

    No, the two instances IS normal behaviour.

    Daily PO: Rishy daily missions shows section X missions in tooltip and neither work

    in Bug Reports

    Posted · Edited by mydocs

    For anyone who gets this PO, it is actually completable, but it is fairly narrow. The only Daily that seems to work for the Rishi is 'A Crew of Your Own' Pubside while taking the LS option. Since it is a Daily, you therefore need to take the LS option on four different Pubside characters to complete it.

     

     

     

    Weird, I just did Section X today on an Imp character and had no issues with getting the PO completed. I turned the missions in all at once (except the Area one), so I don't know if any of them did not count.

     

    Thanks for the workauround! The workaround does only work with the english version. In the german version the quest 'A Crew of Your Own' ('Eine eigene Crew') is totally bugged; no audio, no subtitles, just LS/DS choice... :jawa_frown:

     

    Edit: according to fleet chat, the workaround _does_ work with the german client, but you have to choose the DS option. silly bug... :jawa_tongue:

    As I and many stated above: consider compensation. At least tell us why you deny it in this case. ^^

     

    A little compensation won't hurt you guys, right? And of course it would put you in a better perspective, once this Tulak Hord mess is fixed...

    Hey all,

     

    You should be seeing recovery in some of the affected areas now. Let me know if you are still having issues.

     

    -eric

     

    Could it be, because lots of peoples are going offline...

     

    btw 2 out 3 Hammer Station are not playable, because of the 60% loading screen issue.

    Workaround to join FPs through GF:

     

    do not list when you're on the fleet, go to a planet or your stronghold.

     

    If your group managed to get to the FP and successfully finished it, before you leave the FP, leave the group.

    Other wise it can be, the no one can leave the group, and as example, the terminal for Athiss or Hammerstation can't be clicked. If that happens, leave the Group and relog. You now should be ungrouped and able to click the Terminal.

     

    PS: if you're stuck on the Fleet and can't travel to one of your strongholds or a planet, either use the prio-Terminal for dailies, a quick travel to a planet or a H2 quick travel.

    Unplanned Downtime: October 22nd

    in General Discussion

    Posted

    Hey all,

     

    We are going to be bringing the game offline briefly to address a couple of issues including a severe issue where players can lose all of their Tech Fragments. Servers will stop logins in about 10 minutes and come offline in about 25 (about 6:15PM Central). We are expecting an hour or less of downtime from when we go down.

     

    Thanks all.

     

    -eric

     

    Yep, i lost all Tech Fragments :mad: Will we get a refund, or will you guys just act like "deal with it" and nothing will happen?

    Big Delays After 5.9.2

    in General Discussion

    Posted · Edited by mydocs

    Hey folks,

     

    The team is going to be doing some back-end checks on Star Forge to help diagnose the issue. This shouldn't have any effect that you will see... but if you notice some weirdness or get dropped out of your Stronghold in the next couple of hours, that's probably us.

     

    Thanks!

     

    -eric

     

    Err, all the mentioned lags do also occur on all other servers, not just Star Forge! Tulak Hord is my main Server.

    Big Delays After 5.9.2

    in General Discussion

    Posted · Edited by mydocs

    I encountered most of the lags UlaVii posted. Additionally i had lags with following actions:

     

    - unstacking/splitting items in the inventory

    - crafting (as example) multiple grade 10 biochem cell graft with multiple companions

    - gifting presents to companions

    - listing items on the GTN

     

    While doing these actions i was on the fleet, on the guildship or in my stronghold.

    Discussion Topic: Game Update 5.4 and the Next Roadmap

    Goddamit, Jerba, stop reading my mind :jawa_tongue:

     

    I hate legacy-wide credits because if I misclick in the GTN or accidentally buy a 9999 stack from a vendor, I can easily lose all of my credits with zero chance to get them back. Right now, when I lose all my credits on one character, at least I still have some credits on my other characters and don't have to start again at 0. With legacy-wide credits, this safety net does not exist anymore, which makes me wary of it and I'd rather have a way to turn it off because for my playstyle, legacy-wide credits are not needed.

    THIS! Misclicking something in the GTN is also my big concern. Right now i'm safe, because my "bank-char" doesn't actually buy stuff. With legacywide credits, they could fastly be gone.

     

     

    I do hope that you will not convert all currency-type items into real currencies. For example, Completed Bounty Contracts are a great way for new players, or players who don't care about cosmetics, to earn credits. This is possible because they are in your inventory/bank, but won't be possible if you put them in the currency tab.

    Not every player likes cosmetics, and giving players a way to convert tokens into credits should be included. For example, I've had 100/100 Light Side & Dark Side Tokens on my main for months now, because I don't care about any of the items sold by the vendor.

    So please keep the existing currencies and do not convert other non-currency items into currencies, then I'm fine with this change.

    And THIS too^^. I'm a very busy (well that's a lie, i'm just lazy af), so i like to just buy completed Bounty Contracts, instead of actually chasing the Bounties. So please, leave them as they are, Same applies also for Recovered Relics :jawa_wink:

     

     

    With the mention of credits going legacy wide, It's sad that my first reaction is wonder if anyone left on the skeleton crew actually knows that an unsigned 32bit integer will only hold from 0 to 4,294,967,295.

    :rolleyes:

    TBH, i'm not a coder, but if we had an 64bit client, an unsigned 64bit integer would be from 0 to 9,223,372,036,854,775,807, right? Problem solved!^^ Ya ya i know, we're probably not getting a 64bit client, but a Jawa might dream... :jawa_frown:

    Iokath or Manaan Stronghold?

    Having a Fleet-Stronghold would be amazing, i just need that fleet chat for obvious reasons. Well, hanging out on the Guild Flagship is cool too, and i have fleet chat. So basically my strongholds are only there for pushing my conquest bonus nowadays.

     

    Buuuut i read something on reddit that just blew my mind:

     

    This, the main reason I don't hang out in strongholds is because I want/need to be connected to fleet chat... Why don't they add a galactic radio that lets me tune to fleet.

     

    :eek: :eek: :eek: I. NEED. THAT. NOW! (me throwing CartelCoins at the face of Cartel Market)

     

    Thanks to mabeira @ reddit

    NOOoooOOOoooOOoo

     

    To be honest Tait, it feels really bad to see you go by the end of the month, it kinda breaks my heart. I always felt like you were one of us players, you were indeed our advocate.

     

    Farewell Buddy, i wish you all the best and a shiatload of tacos :jawa_biggrin::ph_thank_you:

    Circles on mini-map around groupmates

    in Suggestion Box

    Posted · Edited by mydocs

    The circles are completely stupid. You can't see vital ad spawns. Why do BW always have to find a stupid new solution when undoing the change is all that's needed? Why were the icons changed from purple to blue anyway? Just change them back to the old purple and they will be fine.

     

    Yeah, this would be the best solution.

     

    I can not agree more to these two quotes. This new circle around you and your teammates just makes more problem than it solves. PVP was just horrible yesterday with that thing. As DarthZaul already said, please BioWare, change them back to the old purple. And when you're already at it, lets turn Party-Chat/Group-Chat also back to the old purple again, this cyan-blue thing is just disgusting.

     

    And no, don't wait till Patch 5.1.2 to fix that, as said PVP is just horrible with that "lets cover up all things"-circle, literally unplayable. I do not demand an emergency patch or hotfix, if you manage to fix it by next Tuesday (February 14, 2017), it would be fine. It would be awsome.

    Changes to Gearing through Galactic Command

    in General Discussion

    Posted

    Add gear drops back to operation bosses. This way people have a choice. Gear through ops or simply through playing the game with cxp. Seriously no one does ops anymore (or anything else) because there is no point.

     

    This. So much this. Since 5.0 launched, i see no reason to run an operation. It gives no gear and far too less cxp. Please re-add tokens to Operation-Bosses!

    KOTET Livestream - 11/3

    Don't really mind the change; looking forward to the stream!

     

    For any EU players, keep in mind that US is still on DST, so for us, the stream will be one hour earlier than usually: 9 PM in UK, 10 PM in Germany.

     

    Thanks Jerba, much appreciated. i would have forgott it, that the US is still on DST :jawa_biggrin:

    Gearing Changes in Eternal Throne

    in General Discussion

    Posted · Edited by mydocs

    Okay, I am just going to say it - a 100% NO on the RNG Gear in Command Crates.

     

    With SWTOR 1.0, I could tank an Op only to end up with a piece of healing gear at the end. Nice. This was one of the big points of contention that caused A LOT of players to leave in the first six months after launch - or did you guys forget that now?

     

    Then, you implemented a PVP RNG system. That went over like a lead balloon so fast that you guys implemented a quick fix - or did you guys forget that now?

     

    I don't understand. Twice you have done this and both times it lead to the opposite of what you were trying to achieve. What was Einstein's definition of insanity again? This is going to be very bad for the game and, unless this is being done because you intend to shut the game down next year, you really, really need to rethink this fast as the result is going to be the same as the first two times you did it.

     

    What should be done instead, is to have a token that drops that let's me purchase the gear I need - just like today. You can have several levels of gear. Today we have 208 for Basic Crystals, 216 for Glowing and SM Ops, 220 for Radiant and HM Ops and 224 for NM Ops. Perhaps, as we level the CxP we get better tokens to get higher and higher level gear. But RNG in any form (whether a totally random piece of gear or even a random just based on the class your on) is an utter and complete mistake. You know this based on past results of doing it so why would you do it again.

     

    My question I want to see answered in the next live stream - both times RNG gear has been implemented in the game it had disastrous results on the player base, why will it be different this time around?

     

    THIS, so much this! These are the same thoughts i and i guess many others have.

     

    Wayshuba's Post should be quoted till we have a reaction from the Devs via Musco or stream tonight. This RNGLootcrate-System should never go live! 99,9% of the Peoples who still play this game don't want this system. I can predict, it will affect your metrics in regards of player-/subscribernumber in a negative way.

     

    Just for once; BW/EA please listen to us!!! (Yes, i know, i am desperate)
