KarmaForce Posted December 19, 2013 Share Posted December 19, 2013 I'd like to know as well. This is annoying Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
lordspyder Posted December 19, 2013 Share Posted December 19, 2013 My guess would be that they fixed the snowballs, I have gotten multiple parcels of the same FP boss during the same fight. Even though the tooltip clearly states that you can't get a parcel from a target that already has the snowflake buff. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
weejohnathon Posted December 19, 2013 Share Posted December 19, 2013 Wasn't that, or doesn't appear to be, could be they added more cm stuff as although the cartel market gets updates dynamically the files for the cartel market stuff has to be in game already doesn't it?

znihilist Posted December 19, 2013 Share Posted December 19, 2013 Most probably an exploit. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Laurreth Posted December 19, 2013 Share Posted December 19, 2013 Most probably an exploit. Like every mechanic of the snowball event Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
CommanderKeeva Posted December 19, 2013 Share Posted December 19, 2013 I'm going to name this the "Aurora" patch because it seems like Bioware wants to deny patch 2.5.1a even exists. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
wainot-keel Posted December 19, 2013 Share Posted December 19, 2013 Yesterday someone spammed the forums with a referal link to get stuff for him. Not sure how the exploit worked but those thread have disappeared Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Nickious Posted December 19, 2013 Share Posted December 19, 2013 (edited) If it was something worth mentioning, they probably would have said something sooner. It probably is just a small fix or a exploit fix.. Edited December 19, 2013 by Nickious Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Jerba Posted December 19, 2013 Share Posted December 19, 2013 I would like to know as well. Obviously, they changed nothing with the snowballs, or in the Collections or Cartel Market. Since they did not take down swtor.com, I doubt it is related to the RAF system. What has changed? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
discbox Posted December 19, 2013 Share Posted December 19, 2013 (edited) Wooo, super secret patch. BioWare, seriously? We had a downtime while two events. Tell us why! We pay for this game. If it has been an exploit - tell us, the patch fixed it - no need to be mysterious. Edited December 19, 2013 by discbox Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Elminster_cs Posted December 19, 2013 Share Posted December 19, 2013 Since they did not take down swtor.com, I doubt it is related to the RAF system. Yup you right. But maybe there was a flag to set up on database Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

SkepticShockwave Posted December 19, 2013 Share Posted December 19, 2013 Couldnt a minor bug been fixed with the normal maintenance instead of taking away more time? Theres game breaking bugs that have been present for months that still go unfixed not to mention all that play time i didn't get when they broke the game for people with AMD Cards -.- Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Theres game breaking bugs that have been present for months that still go unfixed not to mention all that play time i didn't get when they broke the game for people with AMD Cards -.- Maybe they just needed time to find what exactly screwed with ATI cards/drivers... because not all ATI cards / all drivers versions got same issue - some had to alt+tab to start the game (got this on desktop with ATI 6750 and some time old driver - but most stable), some game CTD, some driver crash... and there was some treads that some are not affected at all.

Thats true but people are whining about wanting their PAID time back which makes sense. Paying for something and not getting something is pretty bad service imo but this is EAware we're talking about. Anyone remember when they offered free monthly character/legacy name changes as a reward for subscribing then blamed it on a typo?

Anyone remember when they offered free monthly character/legacy name changes as a reward for subscribing then blamed it on a typo? I was speaking about patch delay that is possibly related to investigation not about compensations over missing service. Remember about character rename (not remember about legacy one at all but may be missed it) and then 1 instead of 1 monthly ... cheap move instead. But I don't need to rename my characters, I choose their names well during character creation - habit from other games. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Rafaman Posted December 19, 2013 Share Posted December 19, 2013 It is a minor bug unless you happen to be playing a Gunship. Thanks BW! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Rankyn Posted December 19, 2013 Share Posted December 19, 2013 It is a minor bug unless you happen to be playing a Gunship. Thanks BW!Yeah, something on par with "players not earning XP for doing this common activity" falls under the category of game breaking and needs to be patched ASAP. Not so much that they'd need to do an emergency patch, but certainly one that they needed to fix at the very first opportunity. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
