Sinister Shoulders on Villain Females...

American_Angel · 12-31-2009 07:26 AM

Yesterday I wanted to use the sinister should pieces on a female villain toon. Unfortunately the appearred behind her shoulders instead of on them.

I don't know if it was a temp glitch or something the devs need to work in a fix for. Just a heads up.

It's a Known Issue. It came with the I16 Patch. IIRC, there's a fix in the works.

Kheldarn is correct. The fix is already done, they are just waiting to be able to put out an update. There is a "publishing freeze" during events, so no patches are released (except in emergency cases or for fixes to the event) while an event is running.

I think the earliest we might see them is within a week of the Winter event ending. Hopefully the fixes that are in won't require a lot of time on the Training Room, but since we don't know what other fixes are in line to come in with that patch, it's hard to tell.

If the game spit out 20 dollar bills people would complain that they weren't sequentially numbered. If they were sequentially numbered people would complain that they weren't random enough.

I would assume that the patch lock during events is to reduce the chance of it getting tangled up in the code that runs the event?

It's to reduce the chance of downtime during the events themselves, which are usually popular enough to entice players to come back, or to get their friends to play. This is when the gaming press is paying attention, as well, so any "service outage" would be widely noticed.
