TinaLovesHan Posted October 21, 2015 Share Posted October 21, 2015 (edited) What the title says. I played through the story yesterday on my Consular (Nayelii on Shadowlands) and there was no acknowledgement of their romance (which is completed and he is 10k affection, as she is my first character from 2011). She stayed faithful to him all these years and now in this expansion I guess it means nothing? I'm pretty disappointed. I'm wondering if there will be a fix for this? I know it's not all characters as my friend started her Consular today and received his letter and got to tell the Emperor that she was committed to Iresso. Thanks in advance. Edited to add: So, after discussing the dialogue in cutscenes with my friend who ran her Consular through the beginning of KotFE it seems the mess up comes somewhere after Iresso leaves Marrs ship and before the first dream conversation with the Emperor if that helps.

Allatin Posted October 21, 2015 Share Posted October 21, 2015 I've got the same problem with Kira on my Jedi Knight and Elara Dorne on my Trooper. I didn't have the time yet to looked on all my character. It's really frustrating to gave them a Rank5 purple gift and have a lot less then they should have Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
TinaLovesHan Posted October 21, 2015 Author Share Posted October 21, 2015 It is frustrating. I have 4 yrs invested in Nayelii. Hopefully they can find out what is causing the mix up in recognizing existing relationships. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Nemarus Posted October 21, 2015 Share Posted October 21, 2015 Same thing on my Agent, who was faithful to Temple. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
flem Posted October 22, 2015 Share Posted October 22, 2015 Same problem with Nadia. Finished all the current content, no email or mention in the dream sequence. I wonder whether this is a bug that is striking people who ran through the romance storyline at launch. That would be the worst. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
TaintedMustard Posted October 22, 2015 Share Posted October 22, 2015 (edited) Same here on my male sage and Nadia. The sage was my first character I ever made and the first to level to 50 when the game first came out. So maybe it is about older characters. I'll run it on my newer shadow.

Azkari Posted October 22, 2015 Share Posted October 22, 2015 Same issue with my Warrior regarding Jaesa. When approaching the group I couldn't state that my warrior loved one of them, instead had an option regarding a certain traitor. Then again when Valkorian mentioned love I was unable to reply that my warrior had found love. I escaped out - and waiting for a resolution hopefully before continuing. I'd like to play the new chapters on my main, but not if it's not acknowledging my choices already. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
TaintedMustard Posted October 22, 2015 Share Posted October 22, 2015 Confirming that it IS acknowledged on my newer shadow. He was created earlier this year. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
TinaLovesHan Posted October 22, 2015 Author Share Posted October 22, 2015 Thank you for all the responses! So it's not just me, and it's not just the Consular. I wonder if there is a way to narrow down what is causing the bug to occur? I didn't even know that it had happened to me until my aforementioned friend told me about letters and dialogue. I would have escaped out as well and waited for a fix. But as it is, it's too late for Nayelii, unless she can some how be reset and re-play the chapters? I played on my Warrior tonight and was able to affirm a romance with Malavai. So, so far, just my Consular is affected. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I wonder if there is a way to narrow down what is causing the bug to occur? It also worked on my LS Warrior and Vette. Again, he is a somewhat more recent character, but not very. It's too bad that the automatic level 60 can't do any companion interactions (outside of a couple with Qyzen Fess, apparently). It's also been a long time and I can't quite remember which characters have flirted with Lana or that chick from Republic Makeb (something Avesta?). Most of them didn't. I think I tried once for each out of curiosity. So I'm not sure how to narrow it down from here. Edited October 22, 2015 by TaintedMustard Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I think I tried once for each out of curiosity. So I'm not sure how to narrow it down from here. They could of done a system like mass effect and have the player go through some of the major choices so that actually having an automatic lvl 60 wouldn't block you out of content. They could of done it exactly like the no voice over conversations in chapter 9. just have the player answer a set of question through the non-voice acted responses to flag choices and old romances. Would of made having a free lvl 60 more appealing imo. It would of also been a way to by pass the bug of romances not being acknowledged. Hopefully they fix this bug though, its frustrating not having your choices being mentioned at the beginning, worried if it has blocked you from older romance content we have literally waited years to hear from.

That is the part that had me so upset. Four years invested in Nayelii and Iresso. Haven't heard anything (majorly) new from our LI in years and now for Nayelii it appears she will never hear it I'm just hoping they can reset the people who have had their romance ignored so they can redo the chapters if they so choose. Which I would! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Deadsanto Posted October 22, 2015 Share Posted October 22, 2015 I romanced DS Jaesa but didn't get a letter from her, but I got one on my agent and knight Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
MiahC Posted October 22, 2015 Share Posted October 22, 2015 It seems to be a problem with new romances as well. After confirming the romance window with Theron, courting gifts yield no influence gains and no change seems to have been made with the companion interaction.

Hrco Posted October 22, 2015 Share Posted October 22, 2015 Ran into the same issue with my Agent who romanced Raina Temple. Not sure if it's because I didn't pick the "correct" dialogue choices or because of some bug that occurred, but i never received Raina's letter and have no idea what the state of my romance with her is. Any clarification on this matter from Bioware would be greatly appreaciated. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Any clarification on this matter from Bioware would be greatly appreaciated. After comparing the Consular dialogue with my friend, it appeared that I never even got the option of making the "correct" choices to re-affirm her relationship with Iresso. So it *seems* to be a random thing affecting random characters (old and new/numerous classes/both genders). As stated many times, I really hope they can find a fix for this. And i second your statement that we would greatly appreciate some clarification or response that this is a known issue that's being looked at.

TinaLovesHan Posted October 23, 2015 Author Share Posted October 23, 2015 Just dropping by to add that I had another Consular on a different server that also romanced Felix Iresso and I played through the new stuff up until the first conversation with the Emperor where you can state you love one of your companions and hers worked fine. I've been checking around in threads to see if devs had said anything about ignored romances but haven't found anything. I did notice in a few threads that others were experiencing the same situation as here though. Wish I could rename the thread so others would know to post about it here as well.

ScoutinArbiter Posted October 23, 2015 Share Posted October 23, 2015 I can confirm this from my experience with Ashara and Raina. Raina still gains the same rate of influence from gifts including courting gifts. Ashara on the other hand has reverted to the abysmal pre-romance level of influence gain from all gifts. The romance is not being recognized and was probably unflagged by the patch. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
TinaLovesHan Posted October 23, 2015 Author Share Posted October 23, 2015 (edited) The romance is not being recognized and was probably unflagged by the patch. That's what I'm thinking as well. Next questions are: Will it be addressed/fixed? When you meet up with you LI (I have no idea when that will be) are they going to ignore that you were in a relationship with them or will it be flagged as active? Because I've bypassed up all available flirts I've had so far (Lana, Theron, Koth) in hopes that it will be fixed. Edited to add: I just had another thought. If the romance was unflagged, when you eventually meet back up, will you be able to re-start the romance maybe?

Aumeer Posted October 24, 2015 Share Posted October 24, 2015 I hope this is fixed. While I haven't started the expansion yet, Risha (Who I did romance) does not get any affection from courting gifts anymore while Akaavi who I did NOT romance gets moderate affection. If my Risha romance is gone my character immersion is ruined. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Saberchic Posted October 24, 2015 Share Posted October 24, 2015 So I played through on my sorc and did not get the option to tell the emperor that I loved someone; however, I did get a letter from Ashara. Not sure if the game is recognizing the romance. My sorc is not a character from launch as I am not a founder though he is the first toon I ever made on this game.

Swedguy Posted October 24, 2015 Share Posted October 24, 2015 I have the same problem with Temple. I still haven't tried on my Gunslinger and Commando so I don't know about Akaavi and Elara yet, but it's honestly frustrating. I hope BioWare will fix this soon.

TaintedMustard Posted October 24, 2015 Share Posted October 24, 2015 Played through the first two chapters on my guardian, scoundrel, commando and powertech—all intact. I really wish there was a way to reproduce it somehow, but it seems to be completely random. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Raltar Posted October 25, 2015 Share Posted October 25, 2015 My original character(sage) from launch has this problem. I recently leveled a shadow and his worked fine. Don't want this to go unnoticed. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
