Hi all,
Wanted to give an update about the fix for the exploit.
We have a fix for the issue but it needs lots of testing. We will grant
the Commendation Pack for Operation Raptor next week after the fix goes
live.
Wow. Just wow. There are absolutely zero excuses about "that's a different team" for this one. This involves the server-client relationship and checks for packs, and systematically awarding those who deserve something (or more conservatively, just anyone who can type, letting us know we aren't forgotten).
The larger population that only had to deal with a minor inconvenience about something that cannot be purchased not only got an update, but specific information and a timeline. And these updates come what, just hours from eachother and this [small, insignificant] bug is just days old?
The smaller population however, while under significant distress, and while arguably a fraud victim pre-redress, hasn't received an update since "For those players who have lost items to this point, we are working on helping you. We will have more information for you soon" which was 21 DAYS AGO. I was going to wait until it's been a month to start complaining again, but then the other issue went and seemed like it couldn't even wait 21 hours without an update.
For the record I'm a victim of both bugs (and another N7 weapon would mean more to me than for most, considering I still only have 2 weapons that aren't level 1 starters), and it's not as if I'm saying the Raptor fix should be not worked on for one second until we get compensated... but the lack of perspective here is jarring. Kowtowing to those with illegitimate complaints (who whine enough to make a re-locked player physically ill), ignoring those hit hardest.
