It would be nice is someone said OOPS and that it is being looked at. At the moment it really does appear to be a "we screwed up but if we stay quiet no-one will notice" kind of thing.


Other issues are being talked about - even future issues are being discussed - but not a mention of this, or how it will be addressed.

hey if you guys are only two weeks out dont worry, The archtect forum took a month to get a new corispondant...hold your breath and dont worry it will all work out. Besides if they have fewer hit points people will buy more.

Tell you what, Firennice, you log in to Chilastra and explain that to my customers, ok?


I've bugged this, responded to the vehicle thread on the In Live forum and sent in a CSR ticket. I've no idea what else we can do.


I can be certain of only one thing. For the remainder of my rapidly shortening SWG lifetime, I will read the TC forums faithfully and consider any bugs reported there to be potentially expected in the patch.

Title says it all really.

Its been a week+ now and i know that myself, and several others have tossed thier hat into the ring for the job.

We have no new Correspondant, and the devs have totally IGNORED the 1500hp vehicle bug making experimentation WORTHLESS.

ass hats.

I'm getting really tired of no response on this. I've turned down so many orders for vehicles since this bug was reported. I'm making it a point to explain the bug to everyone that requests a vehicle


Hopefully if the majority of Artisans don't craft vehicles and explain the bug to theircustomersthere will be an outcry from the rest of the SWG population.

Guys, its the weekend. Expect to see some Dev response tommorrow. THEN start griping. This is the standard publish senario, where things get broken, we gripe, Dev's ignore until Monday or Tuesday after publish instead of someone logging on and firing off a "we know" message.


Its been like this since Beta3, don't expect it to change.

I agree, not everyone hounds the forums 24/7 and the devs should be made to either. Remember they are real people with real families to go home to. I think most MMO players are a dedicated bunch, but I for one am not gonna hold the dev responsible for not responding during the weekends. Everyone needs some time off, chill out, it'll be fixed soon enough. Beside most of my customers don't seem to care about the hp bug even after I explain it to them. So here I am charging 40K for a 94% swoop that's bugged to only have 1500 hps. i think I'm gonna start making crappy speeders and start selling them cheap instead of my current high quality philosophy. I for one like to have the extra hps, but every time I explain it to someone they just say they don't care they just want a speeder. Heh, who am I to argue, I'll hold on to a few high quality ones for those that want the extra hps, but from now my main stock is gonna be crap grind quality resource made speeders priced to sell.

This has been broken since wednesday. Would have been nice to get a "yup we know" prior to the holiday weekend.


Unfortunately I can't lower my standards to using grind materials for vehicles. ::;looks around:: i don't even have any grinding quality resources.

When a good softwarecompany screws up a production release they stay back to work on it until it's fixed. Then againgood software companies regression test too .

The only problems SWG are those common to all MMOs, therefor completely normal operation. Now if servers were booting people left and right and everyone other person was having their characters lost due to bugs, then yeah. But to say that anything currently wrong with SWG warrants a full scale overtime support is crazy. You don't see MS working overtime whenever someone's computer crashes. You don't see Cisco going crazy every time a routing table gets fubar in one of thier routers. Heck you'd be hard pressed to get a FPS developer to work overtime trying to resolve issues with their spankin new FPS game. Many don't release patches to fix bugs until many months of testing.
