o muerte posted:Indar just crashed on Emerald and wiped directive progress for everyone on the continent. 500 or so people just got nuked back to 0 on everything. Most of them I can  about (as, having recently returned to PS2, many are in the first or second directive stages), but rather pissed about losing my Explosives/Light Assault vehicles blown progress (both were ~90 of the 100 needed for 3rd stage [Adept?]) and the LA one would've sent me along to the last (Expert?) set of directives.Weak as poo poo that they could manage to program it so poorly though. I could understand a server crash erasing progress made that session (or, more reasonably, since you've been on the continent) from having loaded it off the database and being unable to save when it crashed, but either having it overwrite with nothing upon the server coming back up or deleting the database file and holding it on the server while playing so it just deletes everything if the server crashes? Seriously  , can you be a little less ?Edit: How many MMOs have they run over the years? Not losing progress on server crashes (at most session progress) is like day one poo poo for MMOs. I'm even more dumbfounded if they managed to configure it in such a way that rollback isn't even feasible (as seems probable). bUm fucked around with this message at 07:36 on Sep 3, 2014 |

Yeah, I lost about 50% progress toward prowler completion on the max rank, 50% progress on infiltrator at max rank and something like 80% progress on my engineer. Great, thanks SOE. The best part is that I hate sniping on infil, so I did all my sniper rifle progress with the TRAP - I can't actually complete the sniper rifle section with the TRAP now because I'm up over 700 kills with it and I'm going to stop using it when I hit the auraxium.

I lost 200 of 300 roadkills, 700 of 1200 squad spawns, and something like 500 of 800 deploy assists from the last level of the Sunderer directive chain from that stupid crash. gently caress this poo poo. Higby your directives suck and the rewards suck.

Higby your directives suck and the rewards suck. Yeah, I lost shitloads of progress on Engineer (I was almost done with the exception of the MANA turret,) Infiltrator and Prowler. I don't understand why they can't reimburse these losses, they've had three loving weeks to devise a way to do so. The only thing I can come up with is that they don't give a poo poo and I wish there was more than "GONNA CANCEL MY SUB HIGGLES" that I could do to make an impact.

Has anyone company run a game this badly before? i cant think of anything of this magnitude happening. Its like if everquest lost track of your levels for a few weeks and just reset to an earlier save. Yes a 2x weekend would totally placate everyone! until the server crashes again and we lose all our new progress hahahaha.

Lost all of my directive progress too. I accepted a squad invite from Omuerte and deployed on him from Esamir to the Indar hellvoid about 15 seconds before the server died. I am sad and entirely blame his dumb 3 person squad. On the bright side, the ragetells are coming hard and fast as I make my final climb to the Sniperman World Championships. As of the double XP weekend, I've decided to start saving them toward a new wall of rage. If you like this sick sort of thing, here are a couple of ragetell murals from my days as goon sniperman in a mistake called Global Agenda http://i.imgur.com/15kEmxD.png http://i.imgur.com/dGsbFC5.png

Evilreaver posted:--Flying Resupply Module (Like sundy) When SOE talked about the air revamp ages ago they said they had plans to do this for the galaxy. Valkyries should have more stuff in the same general theme as the scout radar. Higby mentioned on his stream stuff like ECM modules or an AWACS-like module which hinder enemies or help friendlies in some fashion respectively, and I think that's a good direction to go with them personally. A general durability buff, a shield like heavies or vanguard, and some cool support modules to let valkyries sticking close to fights do more than just shoot mans. It'd be well on its way with that.

I thought soe said we'd never see flying resupply because of the inevitable collision clusterfuck it would create?? E: It's probably worth taking pictures of your directives at this point if you haven't had them wiped yet. Fart Car '97 fucked around with this message at 13:31 on Sep 3, 2014 |

I've been having issues lately with my light assault directive progression not being tracked. I've gotten over two hundred carbine kills but it's still sitting at 20. When I check it and go back to playing, it'll track for a little while, then it stops.

Apparently if you go to that cert page it will have your old directive score so you can screenshot it. Not sure if it's updated to show the lost yet Edit - just checked and it looks like it's updated since last night. Couldn't screenshot your progress Periphery, sorry

Well I just hosed up and sent my flaming Sunderer over a cliff at The Crown a minute ago. Somehow I netted like 3 Vanguard kills, a lightning kill and a sunderer kill with multiple extreme menace kills. I still have absolutely no idea how that happened. The only thing coming to mind is that I exploded on a minefield.

Playing TR and being the only engineer outside a vehicle feels kind of strange. I don't know whether it's the lack of miniature anti-vehicle batteries or the complete lack of ammo packs causing everyone in TR to run out of ammo.
