Cartel Pack gear is not as advertised - please address Bioware!

Le sigh.

 

I will give the the 2 chests seems to look a bit diff. But trolls complaining about the robes (which you cant see) are trolls.

 

Maybe you would get a better reception by posting constructive replies to what was a constructive thread, and, like in real life, I would suggest you always do your research before getting items (easily done on Dulfy)

Not only that, but Revans robes are totally incorrect as well.

 

The investigators robe is brown rather then red....

 

This is stuff people are paying real money for bioware!

 

I dont see anything wrong with the "Revan's Robe" am I missing something?

 

The issue with Red chest pieces appearing as brown's been there since launch!!!

Try the "Elder Exemplar Robe" on and you'll see what I mean. It looks fine in the preview window and character sheet but on your actual character the chest red comes out brown but the rest of the body gear is bright red...go figure:confused:

Nooo. I quite like the current Phantom's robe without all the crap on it. It's a smooth black robe and the chest piece works great for agents who have been without a proper catsuitish top for so long... guess I'll have to buy the cartel coin set one now with the horrid ugly yellow lines and slightly clunkier design, urgh.

Revan's Robes lack the rings on the lower robe. Its just a reskinned investigator. They have admitted this is a mistake however, and are working on fixing it.

The OP is experiencing the fact that in game costume textures are downgraded for performance, unless being viewed within a cut scene.

 

No. They just look different than on the pics and are missing details. Additional cowl and hood.

 

Too bad bioware is addressing cartel junk right away without doing the same for player character armor which is not as advertised either.

This issue has been addressed in the latest patch as promised - a thank you to Bioware for it.

 

I wished you never raised this "problem" because I now have items (bought with CC or in game credits) that look worse than before and I will have to find something to replace them.

 

Really great !

So really, they fix bugs and even now you are not satisfied because the did what they are supposed to do for once.....

Could you AT LEAST provide some screens to prove your complaints?

 

They changed the look on my trailblazer jacket, not sure if I like it yet.. But it doesn't look as "flat" as before with the new shoulder and neck things.

It now looks very similar to a lot of the early level Smuggler gear, specifically referring the shoulder.

It wasn't a bug. It was shortsightedness on Bioware's part. They advertised one thing, created another. The items and their icons looked exactly the same, prior to this last patch. A lot of people bought them because of how they looked in the game. Me included.

 

It's amazing how they can piss off so many players. What they should have done was to apologize for the poor advertisement, and then make amends by releasing new sets of gear that actually looks reminiscent to the gear that was advertised in the first place. That way they would have made everyone happy, because the people who bought the items for how they looked in the game would get to keep their looks, and the people who didn't buy the items would have a chance to get them.

 

And then finally they would throw a promise, saying that they would not repeat the same mistake in the future. But alas, they've already made the mistake with the latest cartel pack, showing a picture of a girl in a white/yellow dance outfit when the dance outfit from that pack is actually red! GOOD JOB!

Looks much better on female. I loved the sleek minimal look before. Now I look like a dork (bald green head aside)

The boots (no pic) are horrendous with the giant test tubes on the side.
