Thread: GUESS WHAT RESOURCE VENDORS...It's relist time again (Pub 17)

Anything with charges such as individual food, looted enhancers, meds, grenades, repair tools than normally display the number of charges have lost those numbers as well.


I just finished about 4 hours of relisting, since most of my stuff from the CU relisting had to be relisted again so I was checking for more crates and stuff to pull and relist as well. I thought I was finding more than I should since I had done a bunch of them the other day after Pub 17 but when I got to the vendor with resources I knew for certain since I made sure to pull and relist all of them the other day and I just had to do them all over again.


When did the new pop-up display on mouse-over of the listings go in? Was that with the Saturday server reset? That must be what screwed it up the second time. If only they would do everything at one time or at least let us know when they're going to screw with the database so we'd know not to fix things til they were done.


They're working really hard to make sure I don't resubscribe in a few weeks

Factory Crates don't show the # in the name column anymore either, I relisted most of my resources and next morning they were borked again . Don't bother relisting until they fix this bug...



Please offer all my auction winnings to my vendor at xxxx xxxx (TBA)

Maybe this is not a bug, this might actually be the merchant upgrade! The devs want to make the merchant profession more interesting and interactive. Restocking your goods everyday is a step in that direction. It also gives the merchant time to actually stand next to the vendors and explain what itis they are selling, cause the description isn't there infront of the customer anymore..


Hrmm.. or maybe it's just a bug and they just don't care about it..

Is this affecting only resources? The reason I ask is because my RL fiance has been running around trying to find armor, and he's found several vendors that have the OLD display bug (not showing any details on the item at all). I just confirmed this on one of the vendors in my merchant tent (which belongs to another merchant, we share the tent). Yet, it's not armor specific, because when I checked another armor vendor in mycity everything displayed perfectly.


Has anyone else been experiencing this today?

If those merchants relisted from their stockrooms rather than their inventory, they would still be affected by the post-CU display issue.

He didn't... he just put the tent down this past week, and the vendor over the weekend. It's all brand new stuff. All the other vendors in the tent, including mine (all clothing and loot), displaycorrectly. It just seems to affect the armor vendor.

Would it be possible, just once, TO F-ING WARN US WHEN THIS IS GOING TO HAPPEN!


I get so damn tired of placing factory runs up for sale only to have a publish or hotfix screw everything up the next day. With communication (you remember, the thing they TOLD us they were going to give us....) we could at least minimize the damage and time lost to this crap.


Its getting really hard to be patient and supportive when you keep getting screwed harder and harder and you can't get ANY help or answers...

So, Elyssa you put in a request to the Devs to fix the on the server end ... any responce? Or should we just go mine some lubricating oil and get ready to pull all our resources off the vendors and relist them again or do this every 30 days?

Actually, with the way the bug is currently working you wil have to re-list your items after every server reset.

I have submitted the bug and have been acknowledged that the information has been passed along.
Now all we can do is sit and wait.
