Feedback Release 207

So you think it is possible that both daily deal and daily challenge choices will re-set at 0100? Others in my guild have stated that their daily deal choices did re-set but of those I talked with, none had completed the 3 choices. I had, if that may make a difference.

 

It is a possibility. The only way to find out is to wait. When 0100 rolls around, we will know for sure and figure out if we need another hotfix.

 

My Daily Reward count down on Agathon server, to reset, is showing 24 hrs from 8PM EST., not 4.75 hours, so I'm not sure that the fix you are expecting to happen will affect my issue since there is a huge difference in the amount of time you are saying compared to what I see personally.

 

Same for me and my friend. Daily countdown is about 23 hours, but not daily available (still old ones completed) and I got the patch
Server: Agathon

 

yeah server Tegan hotfix did not fix the DQ.

 

I received another daily login reward (which paid back for the day it didn't even pop up), and one of my alts had their daily quests and deals reset, however all of my characters daily deals timer show they will reset at 5pm pst (Tegan server btw) after logging in post hotfix. I guess 40 min and we will see what happens.

 

Why were the daily log in times even needed to change ? Who made the call on that ? Why was there zero communication with the community on the servers the change was proposed for ?
Let's think about this 8pm for Eastern Seaboard United States and 8am Asia Pacific time zone yeah people will be online to your change of 1am and 1pm ?? Was this process thought through at all ??
No dailies again
Your compensation is a joke to be nice about it 7 boxes for how many Wisdom Books and Gem Refiners lost ??
By the Way what is happened to CM Jesse ? Don't see him or your development Team even trying to smooth the situation

 

Read the patch notes.

The DSO team made the decision and the change was likely to make it simpler for the DSO team since they live and work in CET.

Last I checked, the DSO team does not need to consult the community on every little change they want to make. In fact, the times they request feedback in advance are more the exception than the rule. In this particular case, the impact was likely assumed to be minimal to non-existent, so the idea of consulting the community on something that should have been transparent and nearly insignificant is ludicrous.

What difference does it make? You still have twenty-four hours to complete your dailies. If your normal playing window is between 7-10PM EST (before DST kicked in), then the difference is nonexistant. You play for the same duration, complete the same dailies, and get the same rewards. It doesn't matter if the three hour window you were playing during was right after the daily reset or right before the daily reset. And, if you think about it, it would make sense. What is one of the highest latency periods of the day? Right after dailies came in. By moving this to the middle of the night, this may actually alleviate some of this problem. I'm not saying this is the reason, or even part of the reason, but you were the one who said "Was this process thought through at all??" I ask you the same question. Instead of getting upset about this part (which really isn't an issue), have you given any thought to the reasons the team had for the change?

"Your compensation" I know you are just quoting my post before going off on a rant that I hope is supposed to be directed at the DSO team, but do you really think that this is my idea of compensation... or anyone on the English team's idea of equitable compensation? Never forget, we are players, just like you. We volunteer to moderate the forums, but that doesn't mean we don't have opinions of our own. Some of us even play on Agathon and Tegan are are equally affected and frustrated by this problem. Regarding the CM and the developers, what they are doing is their business. While you may not see them, who do you think was the driving force of delivering the compensation? You may not like the form compensation took, but you can thank the people you don't see for even having compensation.

The English team is simply the pipeline for delivering the news, so don't shoot the messengers. As has already been stated in the other thread related to this, the team is keenly aware of the problem and will have to figure out their next step. In the meantime, a rant like that, while cathartic, is not productive.


EDIT: Daily Rewards, Daily Deals, and Daily Quests are all here. I guess you got all worked up about them still being bugged for nothing. Sure, we may not like the compensation, but that is unlikely to change.

 

At 0100, on the Agathon server, my daily deal choices re-set and were functioning properly. The daily deal timer started with less than 24 hrs. on the counter so I'll wait to see if it re-sets later in the day as per timer countdown. My daily challenges re-set as well (with 24 hrs. on the timer countdown).

 

So, what time is Tegan server people supposed to get their Daily Rewards, Daily Deals, and Daily Quests reset? I logged in at 9pm and it didn't happen, logged in a 10pm it didn't happen, logged in after 12:00am it didn't happen. Are we waiting for 1am to roll around too or what?

EDIT: So, yeah 1 am PST I get the reset for daily rewards, daily quests and daily deals (even though the timer shows 15 hours and some change until it resets). Is 1am PST the new standard reset time on Tegan server?

 

Once again the daily deal timer has reset to 23.59.59 and counting down with no reset of the choices. Can you tell me if the daily deal choices are going to reset at 0100 going forward and if so, what is the problem with the timer not syncing properly.

 

Yup. On all three toons. Same daily deals as yesterday/earlier. This is on Agathon

Clock reset to 20+ hours without the actual deals resetting.

 

Judging from yesterday, the clock is wrong, but the reset is real. Just wait another three hours and all the daily stuff will reset.

 

While I kind of get what you are saying, if I log on at 7 pm ET, I have one hour before the daily quests reset at 8 pm ET (daylight saving time now). If I can complete the daily quests in that time frame, and I can play during that time, great. Otherwise, I need to look at a different login and play time. The time does make a difference. And it isn't always a 24 hour time for the player.

 

I had high hopes that the issue regarding the Dailies had been fixed for me as well because I had new ones tonight when I logged in at 8:30 PM EST. I completed the ones I wanted to and happened to still be playing at the time of the reset, around 1 AM EST, as you can see by the attached image however, the ones for today DID NOT reset.

P.S. One of my guild mates was on at the same time as me and is also EST and their dailies DID reset at 1 AM, hence why I am stating it seems to not be fixed for me.

 

You were playing at the time... did you happen to be changing maps around 0100?

 

after the event came to the live servers almost everytime i head back to the town, i get brown screen most of the time. This is really frustrating. Why this has to happen all the time when a new events comes ?

 

Just go to a deserted urban area, i had slow teleports, when i changed town all good, kings is the worst town to be at major events.

 

No, I was sitting in town at the time, I thought that might have been the cause of them not dropping so I changed maps, still no luck I then changed maps two more times and even logged completely out and back in, hence when I took the screen shot showing that they had still not reset.

 

Yeah the clock is all sorts of messed up. You can watch it count down to zero and then see it go straight to 24 hours. It is resetting at some point overnight (although I have not stayed logged in to know exactly when) so it at least works.
