    BUG: [Spy Jacket 1] and [Spy Jacket 2] have the same preview image​​


    Looking at the NPC, the Transformations are pretty impressive
    I love that they are long animated and don't feel rushed

    NOW YOU ARE THINKING WITH PORTALS

    I wish they were also unlocked as Emotes

    So....no pts just straight live? Ok..

    Any pic?
  • guyhumualguyhumual Posts: 2,412 Arc User
    So does the new hair fit under the new hat? I like this theme, it's a welcome change from power armor and tights but there's only a dozen or so hair styles that you can have with new hats

    I am surprised devs didn't put these in PTS first. Guess 1-day before release just doesn't seem like a sound idea anymore.

    Also, when is Tear down gonna be released?

    Squishy DPS builds that can solo QWZ w/videos.
    My super cool CC build and how to use it.
  • themightyzeniththemightyzenith Posts: 4,612 Arc User
    Yeah, the lack of time on PTS is a bad idea

    BUG: The portal transform isn't unlocking account-wide, either. The data transform also ends on the generic "hunched over" animation, which was an issue previous transforms had before they were fixed as well.

    BUG?: On Spy Jacket 1, the pattern lines (color 3) go over the lapel and the pockets (color 2), and it looks tacky.
    BUG?: Just about all the hair styles clip through the spy hat; this includes the hair styles released at launch that were assigned to hats because they wouldn't clip through.

    So close, yet so far. Not the Noir lockbox I was hoping for, but nice to see they used my idea for an umbrella costume/weapon skin.

    Still hoping that veteran costume pieces will be made available someday, since the only way to get them now is to buy lifetime for $300. :T

    Costume set looks great, and happy to see the perception debuff powers were not forgotten. Love to see it! ^^

    BUG: Another bug - the smartphone emote has you hold both the normal phone and the smartphone in the same hand, with the smartphone practically hovering out of your palm.

    Hmm, I cannot repro the phone issue. Can you go into further detail? (Like if the character is huge.small, male/female, if there are any other factors, etc).​​

    Character is female, doesn't matter what size.
    Here's a pic of the issue: https://i.gyazo.com/8ea8e0e6ea0311b4f4b956b8730e4c52.png

    Another Bug: Weapon dance/power weapon transforms don't seem to be unlocking account-wide, either.

    Yeah I am having the same issue here. Its not showing up on my characters. I test this with a character that just tick 40 for the event, got the perk, relog a few times, and got no panel choices in the transformation.

  • jaazaniah1jaazaniah1 Posts: 5,557 Arc User
    Huh, I didn't know this. Not mentioned on the tool tip for the transformation. Does unlocking 3 of any transformation unlock said transformation for the entire account? Is this documented anywhere, or just a surprise that we learn as we play?
