Calarand Posted June 22, 2015 Share Posted June 22, 2015 BOoooOOOoooOO indeed! What exactly is the harm in letting that one stay? Seems like many people like it and use it, it makes the otherwise fugly armor sets usable and actually wanted... no one loses anything on that, on the contrary, it's a win-win for everyone. Keep it, I say! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
branmakmuffin Posted June 22, 2015 Share Posted June 22, 2015 Conidering how many other "real" bugs go unfixed, I'd say they were simply being realistic. Yeah, they were being "realistic." But then it did seem like a feature, it didn't seem like a bug since the effects didn't show up if you used the outfit as a "stamped" outfit, you had to actually have the item in your actual slots. Thus it seemed to not be a bug, but a feature. If you really thought it was an intended feature, all I can say is ... I don't want what you are smoking. Personally, I don't care if they fix it or leave it alone or fix and then un-fix it later. But it was clearly a bug and we all knew it was going to be fixed.

A choice can be made to not fix it and that is what everyone is wanting here. Don't fix it. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

MeNaCe-NZ Posted June 23, 2015 Share Posted June 23, 2015 So this is reused armour with an effect right and it comes from the cartel market yet people thought they might leave this bug in place? Of course they are going to fix it so they can reuse all the other armours with effects on them otherwise no one would bother buying them. Pretty sure I pointed this out at the time in the thread Dulfy made and how the devs really needed to make a comment on this asap as to not do so would be possibly luring people into buying something they may not want. Also Dulfy should have never spread this around these forums to begin with since it added to the "hype". Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Sindariel Posted June 23, 2015 Share Posted June 23, 2015 (edited) So this is reused armour with an effect right and it comes from the cartel market yet people thought they might leave this bug in place?. All cartel market weapons from shipment 1 have broken special effects for more than 2 years! And there tons of broken CM armor sets, too. Yet, this one which is actually beneficial to players, gets fixed immediately. Biowares way of setting priorities: Bad for players -> leave as is. Good for players -> fix asap!

Reno_Tarshil Posted June 23, 2015 Share Posted June 23, 2015 They fixed the agent version... but left warrior, inquisitor, and bounty hunter broken...

micnevv Posted June 23, 2015 Share Posted June 23, 2015 I really find this hilarious. A lot of items in the cartel market have been broken since they've come out and none of them were ever fixed. But a nice bug that people like?? Heresy - Fix it immediately! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
MandFlurry Posted June 23, 2015 Share Posted June 23, 2015 When it comes to fixings bugs that players actually like, than Bioware is as fast as a lightning. On the other hand, many weapons special effects are still broken after more than 2 years... A Lot of bigger /bugs that have been around for 1-3 years have Not been fixed. This was totally Not a real fix. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Also Dulfy should have never spread this around these forums to begin with since it added to the "hype". 1: There are plenty of other cartel market items that have been bugged for years without fixing. 2: Nobody is buying these items directly from the CM, they all come in packs and even with the effects they were never the main draw of those packs. So that theory holds no water. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
XiamaraSimi Posted June 23, 2015 Share Posted June 23, 2015 Odd, my BH made a reference to his romance with Mako when I started SOR on him last week. Still broken for my female warrior that i ran through it last week. Wouldnt put it past bioware to only fix it for the guys though Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
dovid-r Posted June 23, 2015 Share Posted June 23, 2015 2 things: First: "I want a refund on my droid" Jawa:"all sales are final" "no way! the speech module broke 10 minutes after I got it." Jawa: "Is not broken!!! Is feature!!!" "Feature!? What good is a protocol droid that can't talk?" Second: enough laughs. Unfortunately, it is a bug, only because the devs never intended for that to happen. The obvious solution (to EA/BW) is to sell "effect" dye modules on the cartel market for thrice the value of a normal dye pack. I don't like it either, but that's the way it is with these things.
