Stoofa Posted September 16, 2013 Share Posted September 16, 2013 I cannot explain exactly how this happens, but at some point over the weekend (and on more than one occasion) I had lost the target markers on NPC's and/or other players. So for example I zoned into a Warzone and I could "Tab" between enemies without a problem, however none of them had my target on them - so unless I was looking at a particular name I couldn't see who I was targeting. The same happened after zoning into a FP - tab between targets, but the targets themselves do not have a marker on them. Refreshing the UI (Ctrl-u x2) doesn't help - in fact on each occasion only a complete shut-down of the client got these back. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
JLazarillo Posted September 16, 2013 Share Posted September 16, 2013 Long term bug. It's been acknowledged by the Devs but only in a 'we have no idea what's up with this bug" sort of way. See here: http://www.swtor.com/community/showthread.php?t=639853 In the meantime, the only way you can work around this (and remain in an instance like a Flashpoint) is by faking a disconnect and logging back in.

dscount Posted September 16, 2013 Share Posted September 16, 2013 It's gotten worse lately. I had it multiple times while running a toon around on PUB side this weekend. Kept needing to refresh UI. Plus SOUND is getting worse in BOSS fights (Titan 6 is the worst). Several folks just "LOSE" the sound in the fight. It varies with day's and seems to be mostly S&V seeing this issue.

Stoofa Posted September 16, 2013 Author Share Posted September 16, 2013 I hadn't realised this was a long-term issue - thanks for the link. I've only really started noticing it after the last patch - only reason I posted it again now Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I've only really started noticing it after the last patch - only reason I posted it again now In all honesty, since who knows what causes it, whatever that is could just be spreading. And if it spreads enough, presumably, hopefully, it'll light a fire under their butts to do more fixing, so while it's not like I delight in the misery of other players, or anything (), in a way, it sort of makes me...optimistic, you could say, to see topics like this...

Ive seen this, along with the missing gui occasionally, sometimes, ctrl u works, sometimes it doesnt. If its a flashpoint/op, walking back out of the zone and back in fixes it for me, its a lot quicker than restarting client. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
