watermelonfan Posted October 4, 2013 Share Posted October 4, 2013 Whenever I throw a lightsaber it turns white regardless of what color I am using. Sometimes it turns other colors but usually it turns white. This glitch has been an issue for about 2 weeks now. This is really annoying me. It doesn't make any sense for a lightsaber to change colors. this going on for 2 weeks is unacceptable. They just came out with a patch yesterday. why couldn't they have included a fix for this in that patch? I understand it takes time to fix glitches but it shouldn't take this long. Is anyone else bothered by this glitch? This is completely unacceptable. I am a loyal subscriber. I am very unhappy. Are you reading this bioware? a loyal subscriber is very unhappy. I would play a different class right now except I only like to play as Jedi Guardian/ Sith Juggernaut and Sentinel / Marauder. Is they a way around this issue other than using a white lightsaber? Please respond as soon as possible. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Please respond as soon as possible. I never played a force class, but I thought the throw was always a white streak to be neutral with all color throws. At least that was how it was when I ground out full battlemaster in warzones. It's normally your personal color? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Mine's been being random, sometimes it's white, sometimes yellow...saw it flash red once... ...My lightsaber is blue. >.> Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Of course now that I am aware of it, I'll probably start seeing it and become annoyed by it. Thank a lot, OP! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Vember Posted October 4, 2013 Share Posted October 4, 2013 Marauder double saber throw still shows the correct colors if I remember right, but the finishing move for sith warrior and juggernaut's saber throw do not. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
jackrunip Posted October 4, 2013 Share Posted October 4, 2013 It's even better when you are using vibroblades. Magically turns into a lightsaber. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Delta_V Posted October 4, 2013 Share Posted October 4, 2013 Marauder double saber throw still shows the correct colors if I remember right, but the finishing move for sith warrior and juggernaut's saber throw do not. Yes, from what I've seen, twin saber throw is unaffected, but Dispatch (finishing move on Knights) and Saber Throw on Guardians are affected. It *usually* displays white, but will randomly show other colors as well. It's strange seeing my white-black sabers flash red or yellow. I'm pretty sure I've seen a few purples as well, lol.

Sykopathic Posted October 4, 2013 Share Posted October 4, 2013 I just noticed this yesterday. I have the White crystal in my saber, but when I throw it 90% of the time it looks purple. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Hyfy Posted October 5, 2013 Share Posted October 5, 2013 I would say it is probably pretty low on the priority list and/or pinpointing the cause is probably also causing problems for them on this. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Primarch_PWnD Posted October 5, 2013 Share Posted October 5, 2013 (edited) It is definitely mildly annoying. I mean, they give us all this choice of saber colors, you get used to it, and then you're in a Warzone or an Arena and the lighting and particle effects are going nuts, and....wait....I just threw my silver-blue lightsaber, didn't I? Did someone else throw a red one? Did my attack go off or is the GCD bug happening? I take my eyes off the screen to look at the quickbars, and the cooldown is active, I guess it was mine afterall..... See the point? It's not a game-breaker, it's just annoying.

krystianswtor Posted October 5, 2013 Share Posted October 5, 2013 I thought I was the only one with the issue... They should fix this it can be annoying at times Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
TW-Cool Posted October 5, 2013 Share Posted October 5, 2013 You mean you're not throwing your saber so hard that the color crystal falls out? I'm sure they'd want to use that as an excuse. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Kaedusz Posted October 5, 2013 Share Posted October 5, 2013 Dual Saber Throw is fine,but all other saber throws are bugged.They need fixing asap. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
watermelonfan Posted October 9, 2013 Author Share Posted October 9, 2013 I hope this is a parody thread. Its not a joke. This is serious. This is a huge issue to me. I want control over my own lightsaber! This is like having tourettes syndrome Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Nemmar Posted October 9, 2013 Share Posted October 9, 2013 I have noticed. I would be ok if this was an intended change to make them all white (maybe to improve performance of the combat or something) but the fact is it changes color in weird ways. I podered it might be due to the lighting in the area, but it doesnt seem stable so i'm concluding its a bug. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
arunav Posted October 9, 2013 Share Posted October 9, 2013 Switched to a white crystal just because it was so bothersome! Hope they fix it soon. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Talorra Posted October 13, 2013 Share Posted October 13, 2013 Same issue. Double Saber Throw is fine but Dispatch turns solid white on my Sentinel. I have purple crystals in both sabers. It was definitely not like this before, for anyone wondering. One of my favorite parts on ops bosses was sub 30% and seeing all the different color sabers flying around. Now they're all just white Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Wow, are people really THAT bothered by a minor graphical glitch? You all need to let go some, else run the risk of having a coronary within a year.

jedip_enguin Posted October 13, 2013 Share Posted October 13, 2013 I'd like it fixed, but it's hardly urgent. If the ability failed to fire or did no damage I'd consider it urgent. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Raansu Posted October 13, 2013 Share Posted October 13, 2013 It's been bugged since 2.0 =/ It's not a major issue but i do miss seeing the proper color when you throw your saber. Especially with the black-purple crystal, it looked awesome. Oh well. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Rafaman Posted October 13, 2013 Share Posted October 13, 2013 Weird... I'm seeing the correct colors when I throw mine Green/black Jedi and on my mara purple. I don't pay attention to others because I have other things of importance to occupy me during those times. I say put it on the list then of things to fix. Well behind clipping though. Somewhere next too... I don't know, dark reds aren't dark enough. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
