Considering how long it has been broken it is simply put, a suprise it has not been fixed.
Comparing it to 2 copies of "War and Peace" even simplifies it.This is what they do for a living, and know where to look. It's more of a priority issue. Do they even care?
'bugss~
This is such an inane comment.. "Do they even care?" I work in the IT industry, and I hear this stupid question all the time... yes it's stupid, why? Cause if they didn't care they wouldn't do it, players give the dev's no grief, they could post a publish where they fixed every bug, trippled the size of every planet, added new quests and abilities to every class, and gave out a free month of service toeveryone who has ever played this game, and people would still fuss at them for something.
Yes it's their job to fix the code, but just beaucse it's their job dosne't mean they know all million or so lines of code memorized. Let's not forget the original code writers may not be the same people working on it now. Even a literary specalist who has read "War and Peace" a hundred times will still take awhile to find.
As I sit hear typing this I'm resolving a guys wireless networking problems, I've been doing this for over a year and a half now, I'm a senoir tech, one of the best in my department. Most of the time I resolve peoples issues in under 10 mins (half what the company expects us to do it in). Yet every once in awhile I come across a really hard issue that takes me an hours and half or even more. Fact is computers and thesoftware they run are vastly complex. The issues I deal with are vastly more simple in comparison to what this game requires.
Do I enjoy the bugs? No I have to redo a quest tonight becuase NPC's that I needed to kill spawned inside an object, immensly fustrating. I'm an armorsmith, one of the largest on my server, so I know how the bugs suck. My fiance' is a tailor I know how she feels. But I can appreciate the task that dev's have ahead of them and appreciate what they do. When you understand the nature of the beast, you understand what it's capable of.
Ok. Because of the color bug I stopped making armor for a while because my last run I ended up with 30 suits of mismatched armor and I was pretty pissed. So this weekend I see a patch note saying they fixed it. Great I think. Time to get crafting again.
So I do a run of 30 suits of Ubese an WHAM. Now I have a total of 60suits of mismatch Ubese. FOR GOD SAKES PLEASE PUT YOUR BROKE A$S CODE ON TEST CENTER BEFORE YOU PUSH THIS $HITLIVE.
Like I said, if anyone else wants to help continue along that line, please tell me if you see any patterns.

I'm sitting here trying to find some sort of reproducible pattern on my AS toon. If you guys can give me anything that might be able to consistently reproduce this, I'd appreciate it. One of the things I'm looking at is comparing the colors, what I chose on the palette, and what it ended up as and it's placement relative to the color I chose on the palette.

As I'm sure no one wants to throw away a ton of resources on trying to find a pattern, hopefully someone from the next galaxy selected for test center will be able to do something. (I would have done it when Bloodfin was up, but I didn't have any capital then :smileysad

I'm just using garbage looted cores and such to test. Got plenty of stacks laying around.
ok here goes.
Ubese helmet black come out = default
Ubese Gloves Black = Black
Ubese Boots Black = Default
Ubese Biceps l&r Black = Black
Ubese pants black = Default
Composite chest green = Default
Marauder helmet black = Black
Marauder chest black = black
these are the ones i have so far, not made any other crates.
hope this helps a little.
And yes i do understand there is a lot of code involved in making a game, BUT they have had this problem since publish 18, and it isa Major one for AS, we dont want to spend all our time sitting pressing buttons to craft, we need to play a little as well (got to be fun for us as well as the people who use our armour).
and in a joke whats a Collage degree (painting piccys) College should be. (and thats having a little fun)
