    On the first day of the Winter Festival I spent (the purchases on zen are on record through PayPal) roughly $45 and put it all into the parcels. I'm curious to know what my compensation will be and if my information is needed to verify, email me through my arc accounts email.

    Thanks.

    Bad rng is bad rng. You are at least getting the items you weren't getting with your bad rng before. I got 10 epic companions, both gond mounts, a forgehammer, and a throne of the lion with 140 bought parcels. I'm excited to get my refunded parcels and do it again.

    Anyone know how the parcels will be given out

    I would accept the amount of the parcels bought with zen, if i bought 40 then i would like 40 of them back.
    Or 60 then i would like 60 of them back. I do not want refund in Zen .

    First of all we are ALL buying and opening them for a chance to get a highly valuable forghammer of gond... i mean items. Highly valuable items.

    If we did not get them, then it is RNG. Correct ?

    If the problem was in the third blue piece of equipment only, we where not receiving , and where supposed to.

    Then our RNG just sucks and we do not really have any right to ask to be compensated.

    If however the problem was in the system and when you where supposed to get a highly valuable item you did not get anything.

    Then i would like to get my parcels back.

    I hope i make sense. Since English is not my primary language.

    Easiest fix (probably) would be to resend any parcels bought with Zen so purchasers can reopen them in the fixed version.

    Update 12/21/16 5pm PT
    Due to the PC maintenance happening tomorrow, the fix will roll out to PC right after the 7-9am maintenance. Console is still set for midnight. During the fix roll out, all players will be kicked out momentarily. In-game messaging will notify players of the shutdown.
    As previously stated, as soon as the fix is implemented, we will begin crediting players for any opened starlight parcels.

    It is now almost 1 AM PST, has anyone experienced the parcel hot-fix on XBOX or PS4? If so, how did it work?

    Did you get ALL opened/unopened Starlight Parcels back on ALL characters?

    Did you get any Starlight Bags back as well (from gifts)?

    Did you get ALL opened Starlight Parcels back or was it a small compensation? (ex: I opened 150 starlight bags and they only gave me 5 back)

    Thanks for any info, I don't want to be a dumb-HAMSTER and open my unopened starlight parcels I got today unless I know for a fact I am getting ALL of them back, so any info would be A+!

    zkorinn, you should open them. You'll get credit for the ones you opened. We'll be sending out Starlight Parcels over the course of 12/22, but there are a LOT to send, so it'll take some time, probably most of the day. You should be getting one Starlight Parcel for each one you opened between 12/15 (when the festival started) and when your shard gets the fix applied (midnight an hour or so ago for Xbox and PS4, at the start of the maintenance tomorrow for Dragon and Drider).

    On ps4 i bought 40 parcels the 1st day, as of 3:20 am I have not received any back.

    The original message did say "tomorrow" would be when accounts are credited, so just in holding pattern I guess.

    Do the credited ones stack with the unopened ones? Or if I still have unopened ones they'll consume one more bag space?

    They should stack since they're exactly the same item.

    thank you!
    and not trying to derail this thread, but anything new about the Winter Festival companion and the Light of Simril active bonus appearing to not work properly issue?
    I do believe in killing the messenger...
    Want to know why?
    Because it sends a message!

    Thank you for the trusted information. Took me a second to figure out how you would know that, until I saw the Dev tag by your name. Thanks again!

    Hoe this fix really solve this problem... when my guildm8 told about this "bug" i just hold my wallet and still wait to the fix be deployed. THEN, after maintenance, I will spend any cash on zen. And only if the bug is really fixed btw.

    But if we dont open them, will they still be bugged?

    XboxOne has already had the fix applied (about 2 and a half hours ago from me making this posting). Go ahead and open the parcels on Xbox to get the updated rewards. Replacement parcels for ones you've opened before 2-ish hours ago on Xbox will be delivered over the 24 hours or so.

    I can't give you a specific time estimate. When I get into the office in the morning, I'll start sending out the replacements for Xbox and PS4. When those are done and after the Dragon maintenance, I'll send out the replacements for Dragon. Then later in the day, after the Drider maintenance, I'll send out the replacements for Drider.

    But now I must sleep so I don't make fatigue-induced mistakes in the morning.
    My advice for all shards is to open your parcels now. Either you'll get the updated rewards (Xbox and PS4) or you'll get a replacement later (PC).

    Looks like about 8 hours from now, should start receiving replacements from about 6pm GMT on wards (with amount to give out may not get them until tomorrow?)

    itis 4:21 am PST I have opened dozens of parcels since the bug occured. Haven't received anything. The last ticket about this I sent days ago when I realized something was wrong. Their support keeps replying "Its by design" Seems to me like these idiots have no idea what they are doing. GL I hope you get your items back.
  • blackjackwidowblackjackwidow Member, NW M9 Playtest Posts: 424 Arc User
    THIS is the way things should be handled. Thank you so much to the people who decided to fix it by replacing parcels (meaning double the gifts to exchange for everyone), to @nitocris83 for the timely updates and communication, and to @miasmat - sounds like you have the daunting task of finding the number opened and sending out the replacements. Thanks to all for your hard work on this issue.
  • x8sharrock3xx8sharrock3x Member Posts: 5 Arc User
    I have to open 105. Over the start of the event and still no replacement should I send email to support or will they know and just send them.

    It will only be parcels from zen market and not starlight bags from gift exchanges.
