I'd like an Honest answer to the Crew Mission Nerf

Was it so that you can sell resources in the upcoming Cartel Coin shop? If so, that's cold. I don't care if you want to sell mats in the shop but don't become a Perfect World International and FORCE us to buy them to have any kind of significant crafting experience.

 

Can Allison Berryman clear this up please? Anyone?

What nerf are you referring to?

 

Mainly, that non-crit Rich or higher missions return half the expected amount of materials. There are multiple threads in crew skills, costomer service, etc. Some here:

It's going to break crafting. No one can afford to pay double the current price for crafted items. I suppose if people stop buying the missions, the price might fall, but that might make Slicing unprofitable. The other issue is the time it takes to do the missions. Sending a companion out for an hour and a half for two purple mats is going to make it impossible to craft.

That would be very, very cold indeed.Even I (who is not exactly a fanboi, to say the least) don't think they would be THAT greedy.

 

It's just another bug that got through unit testing. And through the QA testing. And through the PTS testing.

I just posted a similar thread. I don't care if they want to sell mats for real $ I just need want to know one way or another so I know how to price my exotech and other things I craft in game. Bioware is a joke.

 

I don't know why people keep saying things like this. Jokes are supposed to be funny. I don't find this the least bit humorous.

I just ran two Rich missions for diplomacy. The first one crit and yielded 10 blues and 5 purples. The second one did not crit and returned 4 blues. I am going to test again (maybe I didn't select Rich like I thought) and post my results. I will burn up a purple too but it will be 2 hours before I can report back on it.

Today's patch was purely client side, so I knew it wasn't going to fix this issue even before I saw the patch notes. Hopefully later this week or next week, but I wouldn't count on it. When green slicing cash boxes were returning less than intended, it was fixed in about a week once someone actually managed to document what the problem was. This problem was documented much faster, at least.
