I'm definitely curious to hear about when/ if this is going to be fixed. I hope they plan on fixing this stuff in the next patch and not just going smuggler revamp on us with the new loot.

Im just wondering about the wording of the post though....


Do they mean all Scopes looted after the patch rolls out??? Or justall of the New BH scopes.

It likely means scopes looted after the patch will be fixed.


Ones looted before the patch would still be buggy.


Although some clarification would be nice, and if they have a TC-Serverwhatever up with this fix, somebody who has some on their char could probably test this fairly easily.

.. that is correct! After the patch, if you loot a scope, we can use it in making a weapon. The second part of the fix regarding weapons already crafted with the bad loot is a bit more complicated. The devs have indicated that a new weapon-checking routine will be put into effect. The code will check all weapons when you log for 'out-of-range' stats and correct them.


Now, what is considered 'out-of-range' and how the weapons will be 'corrected' remains to be seen. The effects could be anywhere from wonderful to frightening!

Better question is how can the game tell the difference between the new and old loot? Does it look different or have different stats? I claim ignorance when it comes to things like this but it does seem strange that you can have two looted stacks of scopes with identical stats and both "look" the same yet one will make a bugged weapon.





I think that's the exact same question people are asking. And the answer seems to be.. we can't tell the difference. Which is a pretty big problem.
