Biathlon - No Reward

elvindore

I raced, flew and arrived at the final.
All markers showed my passing through them and yet....
When I hit the flag, no award.
Went back to the gate for the floater registration, Flew them all again, nothing. Then the final flag disappeared and again - I was not ejected or disqualified...

The final notice was Dropped mission "Risa Biathlon" as the Artifact Scavenger Hunt started.

I've been having a lot of issues out of the Biathlon this year.

• Sometimes it doesn't register that I even went through the flag to transition to a floater.
• Sometimes when it does register me going through the flag, transition to the floater, successfully go through a few floater checkpoints, it says "activating a floater is grounds for disqualification" and then it disqualifies me.
• Sometimes when I'm still on my board and go through the flag, before I can even hit the button to transition to the floater it says "activating a floater is grounds for disqualification"
• I've noticed when going through the floater checkpoints, the recognition sound plays, the marker icon disappears and the new one appears on the mini-map, I fly through the check marker and then the previous one lights up and forces me to go through it again.
• Ever since last year when the Dev decided to add more trees to Risa, it makes it damn near impossible to see to fly through the rings, I have to resort to instincts. The trees that were taken out still have their old Collision Geometry, so I'm slamming into invisible barriers all the time. (Sloppy map design at it's best)

Should I continue? I have more examples of what's been happening.

Yeah, the changing of the trees wasn't needed IMO.

I had this happen to me today - first time I recall having the issue too.
I switched to my floater just fine, but the game didn't register me on the first hoop.
I went back to collect it and got through two more when I was disqualified for activating a floater.
Plain weird time to do it...
