nubotsuna Posted August 31, 2017 Share Posted August 31, 2017 Beginning to think SWTOR is a VB6 program and someone used an Int value instead of Longint. The last codeline in this patch was actually: Mess_Up_Everything = True Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
OneHit Posted August 31, 2017 Share Posted August 31, 2017 Hey folks, As many of you are seeing already, there are some fairly serious issues that have cropped up with GU 5.4a this morning. We are bringing the servers down to investigate what is happening and we will need to do to address it. Hold tight. Updates to follow. -eric Since you brought it up. I asked the other day. Still haven't seen a response. on a scale of 1-10 1 being the least and 10 being max. What is the acceptable level of bugginess do you release? Last time i gave you a 6. Today i guess 5. 5 being when you release content you are okay with half of it working. Do you find this to be a true statement? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
darkapprentice Posted August 31, 2017 Share Posted August 31, 2017 I'm not, frankly I even expect Bioware will extend the event. If they don't, well, their reputation will plummet even lower! From only losing a few hours out of an entire week of bonus? Really? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Eshvara Posted August 31, 2017 Share Posted August 31, 2017 From only losing a few hours out of an entire week of bonus? Really? Probably not, we'll just be a bit more angry on the forums. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
DarthSpuds Posted August 31, 2017 Share Posted August 31, 2017 So today's combined output from what is, allegedly, a AAA studio is: Hey, we are going to take the servers down to fix what we broke, but we broke it while fixing it, so now have to try and fix what we broke, before we can fix what we broke. If it wasn't so laughable we could tun it in to a meme. All The Best Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Pietrastor Posted August 31, 2017 Share Posted August 31, 2017 From only losing a few hours out of an entire week of bonus? Really? Just watch as the maintenance takes till midnight in Europe and then it's basically whole primetime day lost.

DeVanagloris Posted August 31, 2017 Share Posted August 31, 2017 I'm not, frankly I even expect Bioware will extend the event. If they don't, well, their reputation will plummet even lower! There is no lower. The game is awesome but the team behind it is a joke, and recent fiascos such as ME Andromeda just confirm the reputation of BW as a gaming company. The LEAST they should do is extend the event, also extend the subscription by 1 day, and gift 300 coins for an unlock, a pack or something, as an apology compensation. No wonder the game is struggling to survive. It is stuff like this that kills your playerbase. And though i came back just to play the solo content and stories (i take the game for what it is), i'll probably cancel my sub once i played 2-3 vanilla stories again, and KoTET. Not worth the hassle and frustration. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
streunekatze Posted August 31, 2017 Share Posted August 31, 2017 And I just came home from work and was happy to get to play and hey I did manage one FP Oh well, I'll just do something else for now. Good luck and success getting it fixed. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Ylliarus Posted August 31, 2017 Share Posted August 31, 2017 From only losing a few hours out of an entire week of bonus? Really? Maybe it's morning in where you are, but it's afternoon here in Europe almost evening. If fixing the problem will take until midnight then that is the entire primetime for Europe lost. Yes, your primetime in the region you are in may begin then, so you won't be missing much, but the same does not go for Europe. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
orangenee Posted August 31, 2017 Share Posted August 31, 2017 Probably not, we'll just be a bit more angry on the forums. It's the only part of our sub fee we can enjoy consistently at the moment. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
BlueWanderer Posted August 31, 2017 Share Posted August 31, 2017 On the bright side, when they roll back to 5.4, they'll set a new record for number of bugs fixed in a patch.... Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Dev Post EricMusco Posted August 31, 2017 Author Dev Post Share Posted August 31, 2017 Hey folks, The team is actively investigating what happened with 5.4a, obviously the issues prevalent in the patch are not good. We are going to remain down until we can figure out the issue and address it. My early expectation is that this will not be a quick process, but I do not currently have an ETA. I will keep you apprised of updates as I get them. -eric Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Neo_Psy Posted August 31, 2017 Share Posted August 31, 2017 I suppose I picked a bad time to log in, get in game and see the server is shutting down in 15 mins. How long will the servers be down for? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

bdatt Posted August 31, 2017 Share Posted August 31, 2017 You dont do Iokath, thats the only way how to enjoy it The only thing I didn't enjoy was the significant cost in both credits and shards to do the missions. Maybe a one-time grind to unlock would have been fine, but having to buy the stuff every time was too much for me personally. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
