Please devs! It's been about a week now and no word at all about the speeder HP bug! A simple "we know about it and will get back to you" would suffice! Current speeders have worse hit points that the WORST pre-patch speeders! Currently, I could make a speeder out of materials with zeros in all attributes and get one with the sme HP as one made with 1000 in all atributes!


On patch day I burned 100s of thousands of VERY good materials on speedersbecause I wanted to make the best for my customers. they sold like hotcakes! then I get reports about low hitpoints. I checked the TC forum and see they reported this bug BEFORE THE PATCH! Don't you think you could have told us?


I'll make it easy for you... just answer A or B


A...working as intended... we wanted to screw you by giving you another money sink.


or


B...This is a bug... we know about it and are fixing it and those with sub par HP speeders will be compensated.

I never knew it was broken. Of course I don't find the HP differential in materials to be that great anyway. I've never had a vehicle go even to half-damage. They seem to repair themselves as long as yur not careless with them. And I don't think I've ever had a customer bring up a question about HP's either. All they want is a vehicle.


But nice to know it's broken.

We all know the correct is answer C:


C - This is a bug, we know about it and we'll fix it as soon as possible... but sorry, no compensations

On any long use of a swoop you really notice the difference. I get to 50% condition tending harvesters with a 1500hp swoop. I dont like smoking and burning up the place - I want my 900 hp back... If you are not being asked about HP then you are selling to a) the new-to-vehicle-ownership or b) the desperate. People are still asking for vehicles despite the bug - and less and less people are selling them due to the bug. Getting sales from people with no optionsis not a problem -selling a quality product that people want is. I am not selling 94%+ swoops for the same price I would charge for a 40% swoop (nor would I want to waste good resources on making crud items).


One side effect of the autostore bug is that your bikes health restores to its previous value on recall. Usefull due to the number of times I get hit by the autostore bug - I can usually log-out with a near top health vehicle again.


Bug upon bug upon bug...

I have the exact same questions.


Just tell us whether it's broken or not. As of patch day, I've pulled all vehicles off my vendor and not selling any until I get an answer.

He responded there because he is afraid to respond to any of my threads.
