Tyialosuir Posted April 24, 2020 Share Posted April 24, 2020 Since you took them down yet again, can we get the event extended? yeah that would be great... Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Eilenda Posted April 24, 2020 Share Posted April 24, 2020 The terminal for event is out again, we can not see them anymore. Worked for a little time then .... the bounty association went on vacation. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
VoshStargazer Posted April 24, 2020 Share Posted April 24, 2020 Apperently the BH terminals are also playing hide and seek Another exploit was found this time Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Rezec Posted April 24, 2020 Share Posted April 24, 2020 Might be for the best. I logged while they were briefly up and turned in a bounty contract - got at least the XP (leveled) but did NOT receive a completed bounty contract. (turned in /bug report of course) So might be best they are back down, since they are only partially working. Was that on a quest waiting to turn in or a new quest? I did new quests on two of my alts with no issue and only ran into that issue on a character that had one waiting in que from before they went offline on Tuesday.

turbomagnus Posted April 24, 2020 Share Posted April 24, 2020 Terminals were missing for me just now, as well. Let's see... Alderaan stronghold transports fixed... nope, still vanishing for some Alderaan stronghold training droids fixed... nope, some people still stuck in combat with them. Planetary Bonus Series made repeatable dailies... nope, not being able to be picked up repeatedly from what I've heard. Bounty Contract Week starts.... nope, promptly shut down twice in a row. Seems like the only thing that actually happened was the Conquest changes and making Alderaan Estate 'safe'; everything else didn't do what it was supposed to and things that worked last time they ran (BCW) got broke in the process. Perhaps the worst patch in the two/three years I've been playing, I think... Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Don't forget the few other things that were broken :/ Although, in all fairness, they are working from home, doing the best they can. They might not have been able to test as much, or organise as good, etc. At least the game is still playable, and hopefully the might be able to extend the BH week for those that still need the rep, or tokens.

Ruvalie Posted April 24, 2020 Share Posted April 24, 2020 What is going on with this event? I tried to click on the mission starter in the fleet and nothing happened. Although I've been playing for a while, I only started doing events recently so I was looking forward to doing this one for the first time :/ Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
turbomagnus Posted April 24, 2020 Share Posted April 24, 2020 Short version? They had to pull the ability to do the event because an exploit was discovered after the latest patch. At least the game is still playable, and hopefully the might be able to extend the BH week for those that still need the rep, or tokens. Barely. It's better than another game I know that did a patch for new content and managed to make it where half the players couldn't even log-in. We just have to make sure we don't try to do anything related to the event or any of the bonus series missions. It's still frustrating, though. I LIKE the BCW event, it's probably my favorite of them all, and I'm missing out on it... Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
SarekTabanne Posted April 24, 2020 Share Posted April 24, 2020 The most frustrating part for me is the lack of communication this time around. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Dev Post DanielSteed Posted April 24, 2020 Author Dev Post Share Posted April 24, 2020 (edited) Hey everyone, The issues involving the Bounty Hunting event are a bit more complicated than we expected, so we had to remove the terminals once again. We apologize for all the issues this week and the impact it’s had on your game play. We know it’s just the start of Double XP, so we’ve decided to extend the duration of Double XP and the new end date is now June 16th.

turbomagnus Posted April 25, 2020 Share Posted April 25, 2020 Double XP is extended or the Bounty Event? Yeah, I've got to ask the same question. Honestly, extending Double XP when people are complaining about missing Bounty Contract Week seems a bit off... Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Rezec Posted April 25, 2020 Share Posted April 25, 2020 Extent Bounty Contract, other than missing 30 minutes of downtime it has nothing to do with double xp. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
ZepGuy Posted April 25, 2020 Share Posted April 25, 2020 Yeah, I mean, thank you for the communication and the update... But can we please have the Bounty Hunting event extended another week? Just returned after a few years away and I was really looking forward to gaining access to new reputation items. I'm not alone either based on gen fleet chat.

Didn't try the event till the terminal came back, and by the time I got there it was gone again...lol Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Tyialosuir Posted April 25, 2020 Share Posted April 25, 2020 Thx for updating but the one has nothing to do with the other. So what about the Bounty Event Will it also be extended when it's fixed? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
psykhx Posted April 25, 2020 Share Posted April 25, 2020 I don't care about the double xp, lvling is ridiculously easy already (yes, yes, it's also double valor and renown). I would be more happy to hear you will extend the bounty event, because that's what I was actually looking forward to and that's what's not working.

CelynthePhoenix Posted April 25, 2020 Share Posted April 25, 2020 I don't get why some of you want them to extend an even that is broken for another week, if they're not doing that already I'm assuming it's because they don't think they can fix it in time for the weekly reset. I appreciate you extending the double XP event as good-will gesture, even if I don't really make much use of it, all of this can't be easy working from home and with everything that's going on.

psykhx Posted April 25, 2020 Share Posted April 25, 2020 Some people are just selfish, all they see is what they want, doesn't matter what's happening in the world Well I for one am presuming they can get it fixed within a few days, or if not, reasonably fast to extend (or restart, or whatever way you want to phrase it) the bounty event. The bottom line is, there are many people who were waiting for this event precisely, and are hoping for this event precisely to be made available again right after the fix instead of just extending double xp, which is unrelated to this event. I don't see what is selfish about it, considering it's the bounty event having issues, not double xp event, lol. It is a reasonable wish. And what does "what is happening in the world" have to do with this particular problem, anyway? If you are referring to devs (so I assume) working from home and that slowing things down, umm, yeah? Let them take the time they need, we understand... again, all we ask is that we get the bounty event back after they have been able to fix it, instead of waiting several weeks...

rgrocott Posted April 25, 2020 Share Posted April 25, 2020 Another vote here for restarting the Bounty week as soon as the issue is fixed (or the next free slot). I don't care about the double XP, I've been waiting two months for the bounty event to come back around! Don't want to have to wait another two months Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
