Jerba Posted April 25, 2014 Share Posted April 25, 2014 (edited) Once again, someone at BW messed up the calculations. 8 AM to 3 PM is seven hours, not five hours. Is maintenance only supposed to last until 1PM GMT? Edit: They fixed it quickly this time. Edited April 25, 2014 by Jerba Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Malckiah Posted April 25, 2014 Share Posted April 25, 2014 I know they will never fix it, but I am sick of my M1-4X showing his blaster underneath him most of the time. I have already said something on the forums and in game several times with screenshots over the last 3 years and no fix....PLEASE FIX IT! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Blakinik Posted April 27, 2014 Share Posted April 27, 2014 So as typical, we should see a tremendous decrease in lag spikes associated with Patch releases? Woohoo!!!!!! Seriously though it has almost become a joke as the cycle is this: 1. BW releases a patch, lag spikes jump all over the place regardless of the system you use. Inserts about 2 or 3 additional bugs. Maybe 1 annoying long term bug gets fixed. 2. Patch X.X.1 gets released, fixing about 50% of the lag spikes and 1 of the average 2 bugs from patch X.X.0 then makes a new bug. 2a. From here there is a bout a 50/50 split an emergency patch will be released within 1 to 3 days of either the X.X.1 or X.X.2 patch. 3. Patch X.X.2 is released fixing the previous bugs from X.X.0, but not the bug from X.X.1, and lag spikes diminish to levels of 'normal'. 4. Game stabilizes on patch. X.X.3 but that only lasts about 2 to 3 weeks until they release patch X.(X+1).0 and the cycle starts all over again. I get the bug aspect - literally every system is 'unique' in the combination of versions of systems, conflicting programs, and preferences. I totally understand and it happens especially if fix A solves my issues, but generates problems for system B. It's the lag that annoys the every living heck out of me. I mean literally each patch the server lag goes to hell and I wait for the patch Gods to deliver thy wishes of a fix. Then the GM Copy-N-Paste (FYI - I so want that GM name if I ever am a GM of a online game) blames the internet, the internet backbone, your ISP, and your computer for the issues, but its never ever ever them. However, its funny we can open YouTube videos to see how to fix the lag when spiking, talk on the P2P communication program of your choice, surf the net, get email, etc. but its my computers connection to the net that is the issue.... Felt like doing my complain sharing today. Hope you enjoyed. Blak Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Alec_Fortescue Posted April 28, 2014 Share Posted April 28, 2014 Can't wait for miner to dig out traditional Jedi robes out of there. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Telaan Posted April 28, 2014 Share Posted April 28, 2014 Can't wait for miner to dig out traditional Jedi robes out of there. Will never happen. Jedi Robes lack the necessary visible e-under bewbs and would be inappropriate for anyone rp'ing mardi gras. On another note......how are the patch notes not posted at the same time as the announcement? It's the only mmo I've ever played that doesn't have them ready by now. My guess would be BW still has no idea what they're releasing either. It'd explain a lot...... Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

DarthDymond Posted April 28, 2014 Share Posted April 28, 2014 (edited) Patch Notes! Six more will be added after maintenance tomorrow, as they address exploits. -tw Rakghoul DNA Canisters are now Bound to Legacy.Gray Helix Components are now Bound to Legacy.Completed Bounty Contracts can now be traded on the Galactic Trade Network. Nice! Didn't know those were coming. Good changes EDIT:The Marka Ragnos Armor Set now unlocks in Collections if pieces were purchased from the Interplanetary Component Exchange (I.C.E.) vendor. What about other CM items from the ICE vendor, like the Series 505 armor? Were those unlocking all along? I was under the impression nothing from that vendor unlocked.
