Hey everyone,

 

As many of you have noticed since yesterday’s downtime, Heroic Missions are now repeatable instead of having a weekly lockout. While this is a bug and we are going to fix it with 5.0.1 next week, we don’t consider this an exploit. Thanks for those that have sent their reports of the issue, and enjoy your plethora of Heroics!

When do you plan to address the rest of this 5.0 mess that has been bestowed upon us?

Because lalalalalala...can't hear you.

 

Here's an idea, why not leave it in place since you made this an almost impossible grind? Even with them in place the average player won't hit your weekly cap. Some people have more than one PC you know.

Any heads up as to what we can expect in 5.0.1?

 

As an aside where is our "Community Manager"........I have never seen a community in more need of managing than this one right now and he seems to have disappeared.

 

When can we expect some "official" response from our concerns/gripes/************ around 5.0 and GC in particular?

Most likely he's on vacation... all of EAWare has traditionally up and walked out on us for a month and a half break this time of year.

 

Tait... addressing repeatable heroic missions is pretty much near the bottom of the list of issues that actually need addressing in this game right now. Tell your bosses that this sort of willful blindness and deafness to the complaints and concerns of your customers is going to ruin this game's profits for them; as more and more people leave the game, there's fewer left to milk for CM purchases.

How can they fix a looting/disintergration issue and end up unlocking Heroics???

 

I am so confused right now, this seems deliberate to me :| So I'm either prepared for a massive Nerf or I'm prepared to have a few things fixed...

 

My credits are on the Nerf.

I suggest everyone complaining about the gold nerf to take this opportunity to farm those 20cxp heroics like there was no tomorrow. Hooray! cya next week forums! Edited December 6, 2016 by Aeristash

One of the loading screen "tips" says something like "Most of heroic missions are repeatable daily" or smth like that. I never saw it before 5.0 Are you completely sure it's a bug?

Why do you consider it a bug? It's not like heroic missions are worth a lot of cxp to start with, compared to most other activities.

How many and how quickly do we need to complete heroic missions for them to compare to other GC activities?

Any heads up as to what we can expect in 5.0.1?

Hopefully an option to turn on chat bubbles for /say, /yell and /emote player chat many of us have been waiting for for almost five years now.

On the loadscreen tooltip it says most [heroic 2+] are repeatable daily. Why not leave this and concentrate on actual bugs... or making CXP legacy transferrable if not legacy wide, so not all of us Unsub?

Thank you. Can't we just keep them repeatable? It's so much more fun this way. Edited December 6, 2016 by Glzmo

With any luck? An overhaul of CXP like they did with DvL boxes. Something like this (shameless plug) perhaps?

Because computer games, much like most other applications, can involve quite complex things - often seemingly unconnected.

 

There used to be a bug in the Esselles final cutscene... turns out this was caused by one of the group having a certain piece of loot equipped on one of their companions.

 

It looks on the face of it, that a flag regarding the heroics has been mis-set, reset or whatever... it may well simply be part of their release process to set various values, and in the rush to fix the exploit, a value got missed. It happens.

If they have all buggered off on vacation and left Tait on his jack jones I can't imagine much being in 5.0.1 at all - the .0.1 bit suggests a maintenance release.

 

Probably stuff like companions not keeping up with us and lagging behind i.e. unintentional eff ups from 5.0.

 

I think we will have to suffer the silence from them until the New Year......if there are any players left for them to come back to!

Hey Tait,

 

Will game update 5.0.1 also address the issue that class stances are bugged, so many classes often end up with two stances and twice the bonus from those stances?

 

Will it address any other known issues in general?

 

Thank You,

So PvP folks can spam and run their stuff all day long when it's the bonus (for huge CXP mind you), but the PvE folks only get to run the heroics once per WEEK and you felt it necessary to nerf the Gold CXP by 90%.

 

Don't get me wrong, 10 CXP was likely too high, but a 90% nerf 1 day after general release is a bit of an over-reaction. Where is the PvE love?

Soooo no threats this time, huh\? Wow!

Awesome. Always glad to see little bugs like this being treated like a minor gift. XD

 

so...Life Day bioware? Don't forget please!

How about removing lockouts from ops?

Thank you. Can't we just keep them repeatable? It's so much more fun this way.

 

But then we'd have less incentive to buy those nifty new CXP boosters from the cash shop! Which is why they will inevitably nerf every efficient method of CXP farming that's discovered, to try to extort us into giving in and buying the boosts.

All 5.0 is a mess right now

Why not just leave them alone and make them daily again? The only weekly you should keep would be for the planetary ones. Example of that would be the one called Heroic Mission: Hoth. All ones like that would still be weeklies but the attached quests to them would be dailies. They used to be dailies before 4.0 hit.

Edited December 6, 2016 by Mdgshorty

Wow lol...of all the things to care about...this is it?! Leave em daily...they were obviously meant to be that way...you need to do every one on a planet anyway, so what harm would it possibly cause???

Honestly I thought it was intended this way because planetary missions you pick from the Galactic Command can actually ask you to run heroics you have already completed. So it made sense to make them repeatable.

 

Besides the bonus can only be done once a week, so I don't see what the issue really is. Just leave them repeatable so that planetary missions actually make sense when they send you back to a planet you already cleared.
