Setalle Posted November 27, 2012 Share Posted November 27, 2012 Customer service is that way >>>> There you'll find this thread: Bug - Companion gear does not work In that thread, you'll find this response: /thread Wrong, it's that way <<<<<<< You win most condescending post of the day award.

mokkh Posted November 27, 2012 Share Posted November 27, 2012 For those of you questing and trying to level up your companion's affection, be very careful out there. This seems to be broken too, as in you get no affection from cut-scenes, etc. Affection works fine for me. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Helvectius Posted November 27, 2012 Share Posted November 27, 2012 just like the implant fiasco several months ago, so dont worry it only took 3 weeks to fix, and why worry when new crapola was put on the market, sod running a decent gaming experiance while we have junk to sell and make money from Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
mokkh Posted November 27, 2012 Share Posted November 27, 2012 (edited) LOL. Says the person who made the comment. Let me guess...it was sarcastic, not condescending. Perhaps you might take some time to look up the definition. You might discover it is exactly as indicated. It wasn't sarcasm either. I was pointing out a few things: 1) Customer service forum is more heavily monitored so that issues would be dealt with faster there. 2) That making a thread with a beginning post in extremely large font size has not gotten a CS response whereas this: After the recent update, or maintenance, companions simply ignore the gear you have outfitted them with - Making them utterly useless. 1) Summon companion and look at their stats. It's pretty obvious they do not use the gear. 2) Re-fit your companion and the stats increase like they're supposed to. 3) Enter a loading screen or summon again and it's back to base stats. Here's 3 screenshots showing what happens. Regular summon, gear does not apply to stats http://s14.postimage.org/j4s585jr5/01_jpg.jpg has. 3) This is a duplicate thread and should be locked. It was neither sarcastic nor condescending. Here's some definitions for the uneducated: Sarcasm: "a sharp, bitter, or cutting expression or remark; a bitter gibe or taunt" Condescension: 1 : voluntary descent from one's rank or dignity in relations with an inferior 2: patronizing attitude or behavior Please review the previous remarks and you'll find that they are lacking in both sarcasm and condescension. I realize that the baldness of text on a web page lacks any and all inflection with respect to the nature of the comments being made. Poor attempts at trolling in lieu of constructive discussion will be met with the same gross indifference as my first response.

Trollokdamus Posted November 27, 2012 Share Posted November 27, 2012 For some reason this issue reminds me of how they've broken two class storylines and fixed them only a week later. Or how they broke the inspection tool with 1.5, still not sure if it's fixed or not. My point is, i won't be surprised if this bug will last at least till the next reset.

deltadt Posted November 27, 2012 Share Posted November 27, 2012 well thats just great.having companions gear messed up. you wouldn't go fishing/camping etc without double checking your gear is working 110 percent and you have everything loaded. these game patches need to have the same mindset of being double checked all the time.

Polebreaker Posted November 27, 2012 Share Posted November 27, 2012 Well cmon guys, it's THANKSGIVING! They had the week off, the local hamsters were the ones who pushed this patch live without testing. Oh, btw PSA, there's Christmas next month, so they'll be taking the next 4 weeks off too. Enjoy the patch! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Eillack Posted November 27, 2012 Share Posted November 27, 2012 Lol still not as bad as STO bugs. Now those in year one to lately were game breaking haha.

Grondar Posted November 27, 2012 Share Posted November 27, 2012 I wonder how long it will take them to at least make an official post about it stating that they are aware of the issue and are working on a fix. So far all I have seen is one CS rep stating his own character is having issues too and he "forwarded it up the chain". It's almost 4pm here now in western Europe. Pretty soon people will start coming home and settle in for their evening's play and the US will start waking up. You think there are a lot of reactions now on the forums, wait a few hours..

Indicating gross indifference as a response to what you label as constructive discussion (because, after all, <<<<<<customer service is that way is obviously constructive) prefaced by what you call poor trolling attempts when participating in that very same behavior makes that post, and your subsequent posts self evident.

The constructive discussion is in the thread I linked, the current thread serves no real purpose and your interjections are an attempt to argue over nothing (trolling). I had no intention of starting an argument and the only people in the current exchange who have resorted to direct remarks solely at another forum goer with the sole intent to perturb is you and Satelle. And yes, pointing out the Customer Service is the proper place for this thread and that there is an existing thread there is in fact constructive. They also have a "known issues" thread that is constantly updated as well. If you want to resolve an issue in game, take it up with customer service. The attempted metaphor of ice skating against gravity isn't relevant either, but please continue. Also, the OP is incorrect as stats persist through quick travel and instances. At least my companion's stats just did multiple times. Edited November 27, 2012 by mokkh Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

The former is constructive. The latter is not. You would do well to learn the difference. I'd say it's a pretty good bet you knew the difference, was being condescending on purpose because you feel this is irritating to you when people do this sort of thing and then was surprised when called out for it so you decided to make a futile attempt to explain it away.

DarthTHC Posted November 27, 2012 Share Posted November 27, 2012 DarthWoad, in high school English, you're taught that if the next word in a sentence starts with a vowel, then you use 'an'. So TECHNICALLY "An Universal" is right, however there are exceptions to this rule, one being this word you're discussing. It's pretentious to call people out on it, its a little known grammatical rule. Get over yourself. I so mourn the death of language. It precedes the death of intelligence. Idiocracy, HO!

Seriously starting to think that you don't know any other way to talk to people.. I did review previous remarks, however, and am still of opinion that they're dripping with condescension. Instead of condescendingly telling people that "customer support is that way >>>>>", you could simply have said "Hey guys, I saw this posted in customer support, they're working on it!". Of course, that's just not how it's done on the internet, I guess, so you went with the obvious "Omg, I am sooooo much better than you people" approach. You may not even realize that that is exactly how you came across, but I assure you, it is. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Arguing for the sake of arguing is (or starting an argument where one is not warranted unrelated to the topic itself). "You would do well to know the difference" and "go look up the definition of that word" is condescending. "Your not going to make it to the top of that hill considering you made the post." (your =/= you're) is sarcasm. Accusing others of something you are guilty of is projection "You seem to be upset." Ignoring you is my indifference. Your last word will be unread so proceed as you must. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Lostpenguins Posted November 27, 2012 Share Posted November 27, 2012 Rofl. I even had an on-going thread about a similar problem with HK-51 and modding his gear not updating until you unequip and requip. http://www.swtor.com/community/showthread.php?t=559317 Did they fix it? No. Did they even acknowledge the correct bug in my customer service trouble tickets? No. They kept replying with the "we know HK-51 comes with no gear bug... thanks". Did they make it worse? Absolutely. Instead of fixing a minor issue they just broke all companions. Bioware, *** is wrong with you. Take down the servers right now and fix this. Seriously, you guys are just stupid.
