...like, any time there is a development. Steps to reproduce established? Cause determined? Fix in testing?

 

Maybe I'm just being greedy, but this seems like sort of an exceptional case.

 

When I was soloing the weekend challenge, if I came up against animals I would kill all except the final enemy and die so I would be sure not to lose my progress.

 

It doesn't happen every time there are animals, but every time it happens there are animals.

You aren't the only one requesting this - or an update on the progress of MP patches generally. So far we haven't had a statement saying it's going to happen, though. So don't hold your breath.

Hope we hear some news soon, and it all gets fixed.

I really enjoy raining down fiery death on enemies :D

I would really appreciate some actual constructive threads discussing combat strategy instead of making the same thread 5 times reporting the same bug.

You can't ask for constructive threads when your own posts aren't consistently constructive. There isn't a sub-forum for this type of thing. That isn't the OP's fault, so don't take it out on them.

I contribute a considerable amount of OC to this forum, all of which is focused on gameplay. I reported a bug with documented evidence and possible causes. I didnt just sit and say 'waaahhh bioware fix your game, as an armchair developer, i know how easy it is'.

No not all my comments are constructive but at least i actually try and shift focus to gameplay and strategy as opposed to constantly whining about the many issues this game has.

I am afraid unless the issues in question will be fixed and new content added there will be more and more destructive criticism. The game is not that difficult nor sophisticated to generate gameplay and strategy focused debates all over the board. 

 

I mean kudos for trying to make it here a better place. Though beware, it might be wasted effort.

@OP You have every right to want an update on this scenario, and it is not your fault that there is no appropriate MP sub-forum forthis post.

You weren't the only one that reported the bug, and your cause is only one of many possible causes. 
 
You don't just sit around whining about Bioware - instead you whine at players in a non-constructive manner to post constructive threads. Be the change you want to see, because no-one is going to take a hypocrite seriously. It isn't this users fault that there isn't many multi-player sub-forums, let alone a relevant one, so don't take that out on him, period. 
 
Maybe you should shift focus from whining at the player base to purely combat strategy yourself, since that is another of your points of contention that you yourself are not following in your own comments. You make some good threads, that doesn't make you infallible or mean you can willfully ignore your own parameters whilst demanding others conform to them.

Then get out of the thread, and don't click on similar ones in the future. Jesus, what are you, stealth mini-modding?

Is this going to turn into a repeat of the BWEAmelia fiasco?

It would be a shame if some of the forum figureheads were to devolve into a a sh!t flinging contest.

I was the first person to report the bug. Check the dates.

My issue is users like you who dont actually contribute anything useful, but instead use this as a platform to complain about things you dont like.

Those dark days are over, we are all nice and friendly now. Didn't you get the memo?

Even if the thread is super constructive criticism, It is annoying to see 2 new versions of the same thread day after day.

 

I'm not saying don't complain, I just despise the bad use of forums.

Off topic, but are pc users seeing this bug as often? I dont get it nearly as much as i used too.

When the first reports started coming in, I didn't have a single incident for maybe a week. Now it happens very regularly.

Yeah, lets have one little post that falls down the forum to be forgotten for a MAJOR bug that is screwing up way more than the odd game.  Duh.

I still get it frequently. 

 

 

I was the first person to report the bug. Check the dates.

On the forums? Sure. But you haven't been the last, nor is your post fully comprehensive, as many users have reported multiple ways of generating the bug. 

 

Just because you don't personally see value in other users threads, that doesn't mean they lack value. Equally so - you cannot complain about users not being constructive when you yourself are not being constructive in most of your comments. It's hypocritical and foolish. At the very least I'm not a hypocrite - some things I post are constructive, some I post aren't constructive because by their nature they cannot be [demanding bug fixes,] others are just advice to other users or giving them info. I'd say that has more value than going on every other thread - which you have willingly clicked on - to complain that you personally are too short-sighted to see the value of the threads. Or worse still, blaming and attacking users for problems that aren't their fault at all, like bugs or a lack of forum sub-sections. 

 

Or even worse, going on other threads - like a compilation of constructive criticisms, and not providing constructive feedback at all, de-railing the thread with a random irrelevant post. If anything, the way you've acted is the exact opposite of your stated goal, as your comment on this thread has led to it being de-railed into a discussion about you instead of a discussion about improving communication between the user and the devs. 

 

Anyway, enough. Bottom line - this thread is allowed to exist, it is not the users fault that there is no relevant section to put it in and just because you do not see the value of it that does not mean it lacks value to other users. If you hadn't attacked the user for something they are within their rights to do, this discussion would not have happened. Nor should it have had to be explained to you that users are allowed to post whatever they want to within the community guidelines - regardless of your opinion on the matter.

I played for about 3 hours last night and only got it once. Also, several last kills where animals and they still dropped key. In my personal experience, or that of my friends rather, CTDs have been more of an issue than the key bug.

I usually get it when hyenas, wolves or mabari are present.

I don't seem to get it as often as others. I've noticed that sometimes you can click on the lock on the door and the key will drop then and the door will open. Doesn't always work, but...
