aandiarie.7195 Posted March 12, 2018 Share Posted March 12, 2018 It was bugged for a friend of mine for many hrs. They kept trying to find different instances and in every one everyone who was trying to do the event said it is bugged/stalled. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Mackanstein.2503 Posted March 12, 2018 Share Posted March 12, 2018 This event should be fixed. However, if the bug happens to be very hard to get rid of (and thus the reason the event isn't fixed yet) one solution would be to just get rid of it as a requirement for the Achievement. There's already a ton of recordings you need to gather, so deleting one of those requirements wouldn't be all that noticeable. Then the Devs could wait with fixing the event until they have time.

Thank you all for the reports and for your continued patience while we get this fixed.Thanks!I sent a bug report and also told them ways to "fix" it, if you can let the devs know :) (I know they are investigating and they are probably better at this than me, but here are someways to make it work for now, I guess).Not a fix, but the event could have a timer, so it resets after a few minutes (6min?) if it stalls or no one finishes after it starts.Make the npc's somewhat invulnerable and with a routine so they won't activate the event till they are where they should be, so when the event starts, you can rescue all of them at once.

Adzekul.3104 Posted March 13, 2018 Share Posted March 13, 2018 "For the next release" ?!?! This does not sound like it is going to be today. This is only going to be acceptable timing if you have people resetting the event or the maps in the mean time. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
TheOriginalKaS.6807 Posted March 13, 2018 Share Posted March 13, 2018 it is just beyond stupid to add an event without verifying that it works in the first place, now with the endless bugged events its basically impossible to complete collection.

Adzekul.3104 Posted March 13, 2018 Share Posted March 13, 2018 Why can't they just have their own people resetting the quest in-game and/or shutting down low population instances and opening up a fresh one every once in a while? Is it really so much to ask?For how long are we expecting these 17 items to clog up peoples' inventories? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
