Dev Post EricMusco Posted November 22, 2015 Dev Post Share Posted November 22, 2015 Hey folks, We are aware of the issue currently in-game in which corpses aren't despawning, leading to lag issues in some areas. We are exploring a fix for the issue for Tuesday. Also, we may be doing a brief server restart tomorrow at some point to help alleviate some of the lag. I will have more information on that tomorrow. Thank you everyone for your patience. -eric Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Avalyssia Posted November 22, 2015 Share Posted November 22, 2015 Ugh, I have to wait until then to do weeklies... Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
SamAnders Posted November 22, 2015 Share Posted November 22, 2015 Well, Tuesday. Better have the companion fix too. Could have just rolled back to 4.0.1a temporarily though Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Talrol Posted November 22, 2015 Share Posted November 22, 2015 When I reported this issue in a ticket, I get advise to delete game files to force a verification of my game? I think someone needs to reprogram the protocol droids to actually use intelligence rather than stock book answers to an issue which they didn't even fully read the ticket on.

This is pretty much true of all MMOs. If you have a technical issue 9/10 Google will solve it, and 9/10 CS will give you nothing but useless info(at best).

Joefjr Posted November 22, 2015 Share Posted November 22, 2015 Using common sense, its the un-looted bodies not despawning. Because when i kill stuff i can bio/scav it and the body disappears, we can bio/scav stuff that other players killed as long as they looted them. We are unable to do this to the pile of bodies that are laying around, so they were not looted. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Jerba Posted November 22, 2015 Share Posted November 22, 2015 As long as you don't break conquest with the patch, I'm fine with that. All the planets with heroic quests are pretty laggy right now. Hope to also get a fix for the stuck quests where everything is completed but the quest doesn't advance, and the update on companion strength.

Starrko Posted November 22, 2015 Share Posted November 22, 2015 what about a server restart today so we can actually do our weekly before Tuesday reset... Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
StarkHelsing Posted November 22, 2015 Share Posted November 22, 2015 Well that was a relief. That lag was painful. Even more of a relief that you're actually patching Tuesday, you proved me wrong ;] Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
chouston Posted November 22, 2015 Share Posted November 22, 2015 I have had in a few areas a 2-5 second lag while looting. And it only let me loot 1 target at a time. Very weird to say the least. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
howieloader Posted November 22, 2015 Share Posted November 22, 2015 It only took 4 days for a response... Really??? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Psychopyro Posted November 22, 2015 Share Posted November 22, 2015 It's practically unplayable now. You should bounce the server now at least. At least I have been able to watch football all day and not care about playing. I was hoping to get more feedback for you guys about comp changes, but that went out the window with 2 sec plus skill lag... Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
SanjayaP Posted November 22, 2015 Share Posted November 22, 2015 We got a response with a eta on a fix - good enough, though talking of restarts i have feeling this game could do with more regular restarts but i guess the cost is high? There are MMO's that do server restarts on a regualar basis (think EvE does everyday?) & those restarts seem to quash most issues. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

You can only Bio-scan the looted Strong or Elite corpses, it's the regular strength corpses that are laying around, nothing a Biochemist can do about those Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Joefjr Posted November 22, 2015 Share Posted November 22, 2015 (edited) You can only Bio-scan the looted Strong or Elite corpses, it's the regular strength corpses that are laying around, nothing a Biochemist can do about those Which are laying around, i've seen a lot of Strong+ around that i couldn't bio/scav. If i can't bio/scav them and they are Strong+ then they have loot on them, mine despawn when i bio/scav them so the piles of strong+ ones laying around have loot on them.

danhatto Posted November 22, 2015 Share Posted November 22, 2015 PLEASE fix the chapter 9 progression bug when you do updates tuesday!!! its killing me not being able to finish the chapters on my main!!! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Avalyssia Posted November 22, 2015 Share Posted November 22, 2015 Something needs to be done before Tuesday - like Today. I thought Hoth was bad until I had to do H2 in Coruscant. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Rojix Posted November 22, 2015 Share Posted November 22, 2015 I'd be surprised if these morons even have a fix by Tuesday. Game breaking issues like this are usually handled the same day with some kind of patch. Guess they don't want to pay the overtime. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
SamAnders Posted November 22, 2015 Share Posted November 22, 2015 They had a fix coded a few weeks ago. Called 4.0.1a Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Even Daybreak fixes stuff faster than this and their dev team consists of 3 interns and a janitor. This is why we don't rush huge, complicated things to meet crazy deadlines. It ends up hurting you 5 years later. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
cambul Posted November 22, 2015 Share Posted November 22, 2015 been getting ability activation lag pretty much everywhere.. seems the entire game is going a little Makeb. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
MellowSeven Posted November 22, 2015 Share Posted November 22, 2015 The game is unplayable for me right now. Why are we waiting until tomorrow to do a restart? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
