Helpful Guidelines:





1. If you keep crashing to desktop, try doing a "Full Scan". You will find the Full Scan button at the bottom of your launchpad after you log in.


2. This thread is for TC Bug Reporting Only and NOT Live Servers. TC runs a different code base than Live.

3. Please post Bugs, Gameplay Problems, Exploits, and stuff that's Broken.




4. Please do not repeat bugs reports that have already been logged here. This thread is checked every day, so if its in this thread, the team has seen it.






SomeTips that are really helpful:



1. If something is gone, please log where the item used to be (Planet, Location X,Y)

2. If you find an NPC that doesn’t work, please provide a Name, Planet, Location X,Y

This morning, before the servers went down, I had taken 2 missions. Upon reaching my first mission waypoint, I discovered that nothing was there (no lair, nada). The same thing happened to my groupmate. It also happened on the second batch of missions that we got. The first time I thought it was because the mission had updated twice, but the second time it happened the mission had only updated once.

Three issues:


1) NPC's now use ranged attacks (yay), but now it seems that they dig in. What I mean is that if an NPC using a ranged weapon goes into either a prone or kneeling postion, they will not leave that position to chase you if you run away. This would allow people to run in and out of range of an NPC that has "dug in" and heal up without concern.


2) I can still use my old modified republic blaster without being a pistoleer (possible effect of it being made pre-patch)


3) Kneeling with special heavy weapon increases accuracy over standing, but going into a prone position significantly decreses it.




Ancient weapons and hokey religions are no match for a rocket launcher in your backpack.

Having a couple of new problems with doctor (and maybe food) buffs.


My self applied medical buffs are expiring well before they should. The timer in the buff icon window generally shows them having around an hour remaining, then I'd look a few minutes later and they'd be gone. It happened multiple times while I was in the vicinity of Dragon's Call on Tatooine last night. I was never able to catch one just as it happened, but the first time it happened I checked the others to see how long they were supposed to last while I reapplied the one that had expired, several minutes later a few other were gone.


The other issue has been posted before, but I may have some new information. Travelling with buffs is hazardous. Monday night when I tried going fromDragon's Call to BestineI got the incap that's been reported before; permanent incap with all my health/action stats reduced to -1, requiring be to quit, wait for my toon to get removed from the world and relogin.


Last night I buffed on Rori and went to Mos Entha on Tatooine without problem. A little later I shuttled to Dragon's Call without problem. Then I reapplied several buffs (as noted above) outside of Jabba'sthen took a shuttle from Dragon's Call to Skystone, at which point I hit the same permanent incap situation again. I was chattingwith someone at the time and they ran into the same problem at around the same time, also in Skystone.

Rebel Marine Armor looted from Corellian Corvette is now the beige-ish color of normal Rebel Marine Armor, instead of white. Not sure if this is intended, didn't see it in any notes. If it was supposed to change, my apologies.

My characters just ceased to exist on test center. I lost connection due to some problems on my end. All my characters are gone. This isn't like the login server issues in teh past where my avatar just isn't there. My characters don't even show on the selection screen now and I'm prompted to create a new character on the server.

I was online as Clytemnestra and disconnected to logon as Medea (same account), but did not shut down the launchpad (safe logout which put me to char selection screen). When I selected the character (Medea), the game informed me that the character did not exist. Figuring a relog cures all ills, I shut down the datapad, and rebooted TC. Well I was immediately directed to the "select server" screen in the "create" sequence. When I hit "back", all three of my characters were gone! That was very disconcerting. I logged on my fiance's account, and sure enough the same thing happened - no characters and an immedate launch to the "choose server" screen. This leads me to believe it's not a problem with my account. I also tried then to log into TC on a different computer, to no avail, meaning that it's not a computer issue.

Is it possible to set up scenario's for the game without having to waste the time building faction on testcenter?


Basically, I am so sick of overt corpses being able to shutdown the countdown sequence. I was told that this would be fixed in Patch 7, is there any way of verifying this without coordinating a huge amount of faction and coordination with the opposing faction?


Thanks,


WolfCoast

Corellian Corvette :


The following Terminals produce a "nothing happens" message and dont give the Window they should.


Fuel Intake Controll

Engine Settings

Hyperdrive Controll Terminal


Two rooms arenot accessible.


The Officers Quarter Starboard Side and one room without name a level below, almost at the same position.


Upon leaving the Corvette for Imperials, we get dropped on Tatooine, right in front of a Dish Turret of a Rebel Factional Base. (Skystone on TC)

I was in a 5 person group (including myself) goign tot he corvette. a party member (not the leader) used a ticket, and i immediately accepted to go up. I loaded in a corvette without anything onr adar, and 2 seconds later when i tried to moe, i was warped to 49 -10 or so. I could move around a bit, then i /unstick'ed and i am now stuck. I logged off this char and i'm going to try to relog in a bit...

I wanted to try the SE, but not without a ship, and not without a map... tis SCARY!
