Thread: The Devs need to know that they missed several things on Starsider! We're left out!

After pub 19, this board (and several other boards) have seen numerous complaints from people from Starsider about uncrated WUKs not having a "Salvage" command. NOBODY on starsider has "converted" a WUK to a random new item from the new loot slicing system. You can't even Salvage the last one in a crate of WUKs, like you can on other servers.



Aparently, this is NOT the only problem with Pub 19 and Starsider. Aparrently, every other server had their Proton Rifles for Commando fixed also, and on Starsider, none of the new proton rifles are fixed!

I believe Starsider's item conversion problems happened a few patches ago. It seemed to start with the patch that was supposed to convert Nightsister Layers from +0 to +20 health enhancers. At the time of that patch, Starsider had some sort of server issue and was down for several hours longer than all the other servers. The result was that only a small number of Nightsister Layers underwent conversion. To this day most pre-CU NS Layers on Starsider are still +0. This makes me think that whatever server problem Starsider had that day caused the item conversion process to be aborted mid-way through its run. Its possible that this aborted run has then been causing problems for subsequent item conversions. For example, another recent patch was supposed to correct the stats on crates of pre-nerf weapon stocks, however I believe that on Starsider a good numberof these crates were never fixed.

One thing I noticed in my marathon salvaging sessions, I only got the option when I had the items in my inventory. I couldn't salvage them out of a bag I wasn't holding.



And if I salvaged them out of a bag I was holding, the first one of each 'batch' disappeared without trace.



Is that any help to you guys?


The results I got from my WUKs was starngely uniform, with the results from my first bag of 50echoed across all 7 ot 8 bags I prepared:



  • 70% Simple Toolkits

  • 25% Finely Crafted Toolkits

  • 5% Illegal Core things

I didn't get a single one of the other weapon items, and all WUKs were from the same factory run with identical IDs.

I'm on Starsider, and all 2 of the upgrade kits I had out of crates won't salvage. Hardly a representative sample, but it corresponds with everybody else's experience so far on the server.
