coolowlbro Posted January 1, 2015 Share Posted January 1, 2015 Still broken! Pretty frustrating experience for my first time playing this game. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
SpectralThundr Posted January 2, 2015 Share Posted January 2, 2015 But, it isn't a requirement for you to get to endgame, you can easily just do flashpoints via the group finder to make up the exp you lose out on due to skipping the big guns quest and following quests in the chain.....that is the point i am trying to make. Right now, i am giving them the benefit of the doubt, it being Xmas and all that and pretty close to new years day.....so if it isn't fixed by mid-January, then there is no excuse, i mean, if they don't know how to fix it, they really need to man up and admit it. I'm sorry but it shouldn't take months to reboot a server or run a maintenance period to reset a quest not working. Big Guns breaks regularly and has since launch in 2011. That it's been 3 years and this particular quest continues to break often is inexcusable at this point. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
discosoc Posted January 2, 2015 Share Posted January 2, 2015 Unfortunately, these types of issues (quest objects not resetting) have plagued the game since Beta. If they haven't bothered fixing the core issue by now, they probably never will. When it happens, you basically just have two options: 1. Wait for the server to reset, and finish the quest before it bugs out again. This means you may be waiting days or weeks, depending on maintenance. 2. Get into a second instance for that planet. Once the population of a planet gets high enough (anywhere from 120-160 people, from what I've observed), a second instance will spawn. You can open your map and see a drop-down menu appear above the bottom-right map. Select a another instance and it will port you there. The quest object should work fine, at that point. From my experience, however, option 2 is only really available on the starter planets and Coruscant/Dromund. After that, the population drops off drastically, and having enough people on at once to spawn a second instance is pretty unlikely. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Aussircaex Posted January 2, 2015 Share Posted January 2, 2015 Isn't this essentially the same bug as the meat tree on Rishi? The quest object not re spawning? It's probably not a hard thing to fix; as long as they're aware of it it'll hopefully be in the next patch. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Exactly which just adds to the ridiculousness that Bioware/EA can't be bothered to have someone in the NoC (network op center) do a routine reboot of the servers when quests like this continually break. Or do the right thing, recode the damn quests so they stop breaking on a regular basis, it would go a much further way than adding pigtails and emotes to the cartel market.

Smittypants Posted January 8, 2015 Share Posted January 8, 2015 Just in case anyone was wondering... It's Jan 8, and it's still broken on the harbinger. I'm paying for this. There's no reason this shouldn't be fixed by now. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Transmechanic Posted January 9, 2015 Share Posted January 9, 2015 Have started another thread. I think that everyone here should open a thread about it, that way we can flood BioWare's customer service with bug reports about this quest. That way it will get addressed more quickly. http://www.swtor.com/community/showt...77#post7936377 Also you should all submit an in-game ticket about it, and flood their in-game support service with more bug reports. Flooding is the way forward, ladies and gentlemen. They will HAVE to take notice if they wake up every morning to it. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

mj_swtor Posted January 11, 2015 Share Posted January 11, 2015 (edited) This totally broke the game experience for me. With lack of any official response for almost a month on top of that. Edited January 11, 2015 by mj_swtor Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Trintric Posted January 12, 2015 Share Posted January 12, 2015 It's like the Devs just sort of shrugged their shoulders and said "Eh, who needs Balmorra, just skip to Nar Shaadaa?" Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
blendedseal Posted January 12, 2015 Share Posted January 12, 2015 (edited) And it's broken on Ebon Hawk Broken on Shadowlands, but honestly what isn't broken on this server. It kind of makes me think that EA has finally decided to cut off support for SWTOR and is just trying to see how much more money they can milk from us before they close everything down. Actually wasn't there something from EA or Bioware a few months ago saying there was one final content update and then support was getting cut to the bare minimum?

Djiini Posted January 12, 2015 Share Posted January 12, 2015 Actually wasn't there something from EA or Bioware a few months ago saying there was one final content update and then support was getting cut to the bare minimum? 95% sure that they're planning to continue the story, given the way Shadow of Revan ended.

Stepfan Posted January 12, 2015 Share Posted January 12, 2015 Well I'm up to three Characters just waiting. If it was just a side mission I'd skip it but as it's the main planet quest chain seems a little hard to skip. I'm on shadowlands btw. Seriously starting to tick me off.
