Keta Posted December 17, 2015 Share Posted December 17, 2015 I hope you plan to extend the event to 1 week from the day you fixed it. I CBA to wait to get what I want until the next plague event just because you people can't fix your game. aren't these thing properly tested before being implemented or something? We will find out on or before this upcoming Tuesday. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Andermann Posted December 17, 2015 Share Posted December 17, 2015 They haven't extended events before, unlikely they will this one. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
The_Wulff Posted December 17, 2015 Author Share Posted December 17, 2015 They have run a make up week for gree in the past so it isn't out of the question. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Thepyrethatburns Posted December 17, 2015 Share Posted December 17, 2015 Well, that sucks as I was hoping to get Lokin before Chapter 10. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Oldsailor Posted December 17, 2015 Share Posted December 17, 2015 Well, that sucks as I was hoping to get Lokin before Chapter 10. Still should be able to. Chapter 10 not out till Feb. 11 and there is another Rakghoul Event scheduled for Jan. 12 (unless they break that too). Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
milehighclub Posted December 17, 2015 Share Posted December 17, 2015 *FAKE NEWS ANNOUNCEMENT* Hey All,We decided to add a few more people to our team to help us improve the quality (note to self, burst out laughing) of the game. Allow me to introduce them - Ho Lee Fuk will be working on new Operations and Flashpoints. He suffers from Tourette so you can expect some interesting dialogues.- Sum Ting Wong will be doing code reviews and help us fix the few remaining bugs.- Phuc Dat Bich is going to join the Combat Team. He loves playing his Sage / Sorc, and his motto is L2P. We expect great things from him, since we share many views, especially about balance (note to self, wet myself, too much laughter).- Yuu Ol Sak is a new Community Manager. He is a Sociopath and Pathological liar, I am sure his impact on the community will be incredible.- Dii Ja Vuu is going to work on great new things for the Cartel Market. He ran a counterfeit ring before joining us, so you can be assured to see many "new" items you haven't seen before. We hope to deliver an even more immersive experience with our new and existing team members! *FAKE NEWS ANNOUNCEMENT* Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Ruup Posted December 17, 2015 Share Posted December 17, 2015 Protips: 1) Use your Tatooine stronghold for free travel to Tatooine 2) Grab a heroic from the terminal on the fleet for free travel to Tatooine 3) Don't go in the tunnels if you know it's broken. Amongst the wisest you are, old Jedi! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
krasiyan Posted December 17, 2015 Share Posted December 17, 2015 (edited) Been waiting for them to fix the event so i can do it but i guess i might try to start it today Edited December 17, 2015 by krasiyan Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Tashia Posted December 17, 2015 Share Posted December 17, 2015 I just gave up on it --- if it gets fixed it does -- if it doesn't, well there's always next month --- I think and no, I'm not happy about it either ..... just resigned to the way it is Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
CrazyCT Posted December 17, 2015 Share Posted December 17, 2015 (edited) If they just would tell us whats wrong and how long they think its gonna take.. but no, even that seems to be too much to ask for .__. They probably don't know themselves. I'm quite sure the code for the game is pretty expansive, and trying to find a lone, lost semi-colon in it all makes the needle-in-a-haystack thing look like searching for pørn on the internet.

Rankyn Posted December 17, 2015 Share Posted December 17, 2015 They haven't extended events before, unlikely they will this one.Actually, they have. In May they extended the Gree event and bumped everything else on the schedule back a week because Conquest failed to start properly that week so they gave it a do-over. http://www.swtor.com/patchnotes/5142015/3.2c-patch-notes Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Exactly, the game takes up 25GB of data on our computers and it could be anything from a script to an asset that isn't congruent that is causing the issue. They said they are working on it and would let us know more when there is more information. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
PorsaLindahl Posted December 17, 2015 Share Posted December 17, 2015 After 2 days of "investigation" they can, at least, let us know if it's fixable or if we need to stop holding our breath and just wait until next month to get Lokin since he's tied to the event.

They said they are working on it and would let us know more when there is more information. yeah, but a lil word on the topic would be nice to know. every single day there are asking about 500 people only on t3-m4, when the event will starts, but to every single time to say: "sry but the devs don't found any answer yet" isn't satisfying in any way! and then for around 48h no communication to us, is pretty bad management in my astimation!

I think the mistake is to think they want to improve the game or have things run properly. If they can tank the game and make it not profitable they can blame listing to people that wanted more story. After 4 years we listen to our customs and gave them more story and nobody wanted to play. Shows what they knew. Course they can't mention the story in question didn't tie in to any existing content, lasted about 10 hours and offered no replay value. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Oldsailor Posted December 17, 2015 Share Posted December 17, 2015 (edited) Hey all, After some investigation, it looks like we are not going to be able to address this issue today. We'll keep everyone updated as we learn more, but I wanted to ensure that you knew we were continuing to work on it. -Tait Guess they haven't learned anything in 2 full days. With Double XP to start tomorrow, hopefully the game doesn't fully crash. Edited December 17, 2015 by Oldsailor Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
DresdenDollWars Posted December 17, 2015 Share Posted December 17, 2015 Normally I'm annoyed when bugs like this crop up, but this time I just feel pity. It's one thing to make a mistake, it's another thing to have that mistake advertised on fleet 24/7. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

They said they are working on it and would let us know more when there is more information. Yeah, because 25GB of 3d models, textures, sounds, voice acting and music is causing a server-side issue. Somewhere there's a boolean that says rakghoul_event_tatooine that should be 1, and is now 0. It's most likely pretty low on the to-do list however, so nobody bothered to toggle it back to 1.

chouston Posted December 17, 2015 Share Posted December 17, 2015 So will there be a Fix before this Star Wars weekend? A rollback ? Or something next month before Chapter X ? Would be nice to celebrate Star Wars with friends with this fixed or at least be told what is/ is not happening. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Murgren Posted December 17, 2015 Share Posted December 17, 2015 Maybe they're taking so long to fix this because they're working on responding to tickets???? Yeah I know.......I'm laughing/crying too.... Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
DyreMaker Posted December 17, 2015 Share Posted December 17, 2015 (edited) There is a trick to getting down there: http://i63.tinypic.com/5wzgnc.jpg And when you do the Floral Fauna are also bugged.

It's most likely pretty low on the to-do list however, so nobody bothered to toggle it back to 1.Ah, if only it were that simple. The rakghoul event is there. The cave is populated. The quests can be taken. MOBs can be killed. None of that is true when the event isn't running and you can clearly observe that if the event ends while you're logged out in the caverns. So by your example, rakghoul_event_tatooine *IS* set to 1. Therefore, maybe the problem is more complex than a bunch of armchair developers seem to think it is.
