I hope someone with some influence realizesthe current vendor listing malfunctionis a showstopper for me and many others.


What is the status of the fix? Why has this not been made a higher priority?

I'm not stocking my vendors again till this is fixed. I have no idea how much is on the vendors without clicking on EACH GOD DAMNED listing... and it's really pissing me off.


The devs need to fix this before working on more damn jedi shiite.

I was extremely disheartened to seea handful of updates to Jedi on the 6/30 hotfix but nothing for this. And then nothing today. I think it's just an easy problem to fix,where certain variables are left of the listing text.


I've been playing since the first weekend in August and this is the poorest state of the game I've seen since.

Same here. I'm not advertising in the forums or stocking anything new until this is fixed.

dev tracker has a quote that they are going to try to hotfix this today.. of course that quote was from tuesday or yesterday....


Place yer bets! 50 to 1 they partially fix the display and create 12 distinct other merchant vendor problems.

100 to 1 that the vendor fix somehow nerfs Bounty Hunter.

here is the pertinant quote





7) Vendor/ Bazaar Resources Display: The name fields for resources on the bazaar no longer include the amount of the resource or the name. We are working on a fix and it will most likely be in a Thursday’s hotfix.

I know, and that is why I made this post, because it wasn't hotfixed. It's still hotbroken. And I'm hot about it.


Weaponsmiths got nerfed because somewhere between one-tenth and one-third of the population is Jedi and Jedicraft their own weapons. Fine.
Armorsmiths got nerfed because Jedi don't wear armor while using Force Powers. Fine.

But take the most important economic interface in the game - vendor and bazaar listings - which needed fixing in the first place - and BREAK THEM in ORDER (through the entire fiascowe call publish 9)to more thouroughly nerf WS and AS - then REFUSE to fix them, instead opting to fix the original NERFS.... this, my friends and colleagues, is true disrespect. Plain and simple.



I'm sorry. I'm trying to stay positive. I love this game, and I still think it's a lot of fun.

Today's TC patchnotes:



  • Hermit Quest: Corrected some typos in the hermit conversations.
  • Hermit Quest: Fixed full inventory Mark item granting. Correct items should now be received if you previously had a full inventory
  • Jedi: Demotions should now work properly with rank demotions.
  • Jedi: Rank scores should now update consistently.
  • Jedi: Added message for Regain Consciousness explaining the Force regen reduction.
  • Jedi: Non-Jedi trainers should no longer train Jedi skills
  • Jedi: Jedi should no longer be able to heal droids
  • Jedi: Jedi heals should no longer work when the player has insufficient Force power
  • Resource Containers: Resource type and quantity for resource containers should now be displayed when put on sale on vendors/bazaars.
  • Unstick: Changed the /unstick command such that you can only have one pending at a time. Furthermore, if you move, the one you have pending will be cancelled.

  • BH no longer requires Master Scout only Exploration 4.






  • It doesn't make sense that they refused to fix this on TC, then they brought the broken code to Live, and now we're testing the fix on TC before hotfixing it in ASAP. Seriously ---- how hard is it to fix the simple string!?

    EXACTLY... Until this problem is FIXED I'm out of buisness... Its practically impossible for me to conduct my gaming and my professions until this is fixed... I have 3 accounts of my own and harvest with 5 others... Running a successful crafting buisness requires insane amounts of resources to keep item quality up as much as possible... When a good resource spawns I harvest between 1-2 mil units... Nothing EXTREMELY excessive but enough that I can wait out good spawns...

    With this comes storage problems that ONLY can be fixed by using a resource storage vendor in a HIGH access fee building or more accounts... I'm not willing to give SOE more money just to function in the path I chose...

    THE BOTTOM LINE IS FIX IT AND FIX IT NOW... NOT BURY IT ON TC... I understand the need for a little testing BUT IF the problem is FIXED... PUSH THE DAMN CODE LIVE...

    there fix will probably on be for 'new' items placed on the vendors... all existing items on vendors will need to be relisted. oh the horror... damn you SOE and screw your jedi.

    Yeah I just figured that out about 3 days ago. I never realized the arrow looking things were clickable, I thought they were just nifty graphics. But when I was searching for something I hit it by accident and it was very cool.

    Haha been playing for a year and I didn't know either. I would think lots of people don't.


    As to the supposed fix that didn't happen, I'll just say one thing. Lame.
