Thread: Not only does customization not work right, but I can't tame any new droids

Well not only do some droids not keep their customization after being stored. But I am unable to tame new droids. I made a couple of different droids to check if maybe old droids just wouldn't keep their color. But i can't tame any of them. I keep getting a message saying I have too many pets active, even though I have none out, and can actually call my old droids just fine.


Also it doesn't seem as though the customization skill in refinement has anything to do with the customization tool. I got the same color choices at expert and master refinement.

do you already have 5 droids in your datapad?

No, actually I had 4. I just tried deleting one, and then it told me I have too many pets stored in this container. So I deleted another one. Same message. So now I have 2 droids, neither of which I really want to destroy to find out if I can tame a new one.

I'm seriously considering just giving up. I mean, they give us basically nothing in this patch, and what they did give doesn't even work right. Add on top of that the taming problem...If my customers cannot tame new droids I can do.....what again? I'm sorry I'm being negative, but like others I'm really starting to lose my patience here.



Anyways, something positive to say....I do like the color options that are given with the kits.

You know there will be a hotfix for that in at most a day or two since that effect more people than just DE's...


Now if it was just DE's we might get a fix in a month

Try this: When I went to call droids tonight, I noticed that the datapad seemed confused about whether my droids were in or out. On three of the five I had to select "Store" twice before the "Call" command appeared. This was before taking any droids out.

If you can't tame, try doing this for each of your droids, making sure "Call" rather than "Store" appears on the radial menu in the data pad for all of them.

I didn't get as far as actually trying to tame one myself, but it seems like a good thing to try.

Same problem here... can't tame new droids.



And the "check that it says call" doesn't work either... all has "call" now and no new droid can be fetched.

Sometimes I wonder how stupid those people are....



Don't they listen to the testers when they say "THIS IS BROKEN!!!!" ?

Could it be counting the number of Droid Chasis in the house, which is a 'container'?

Seems to be NEW deeds only.... I managed to tame an old deed for a LE-repair droid just now.

Has anyone tried to 'use' the deed instead of 'tame' since the latest patch?

Go make some noise about this here: http://forums.station.sony.com/swg/board/message?board.id=Development&message.id=666861 ... maybe they will actually listen for once.
