Bonus Marks NOT being given (video included)

Ran several Dyson FA's during the Bonus Marks Event today and noticed that the marks I was receiving in my inventory fell way short of what I was getting from the marks "crates" that I open at the end of the event.

It looks like the base marks are being added, but not the "bonus" marks.

I have included a video of the issue here: http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=Xd9BJ0gFgEk&feature=youtu.be

This was the first time I have run that particular FA (Breach) as well, however, I had noticed that the previous FA (Spire) had the same issue, only received half of the total marks I should have.

The video shows that I stared with 56 Dyson marks.

I opened the marks "crate", and selected the multiple choice Dyson marks, 83 total. This shows as being received on my totals as now the number is 139.

The "Bonus" marks screen then shows another 83 marks, only Dyson as the choice this time. I select these and hit "OK". They should be added as well to my total, and they are not, as you can clearly see by the video.

Again, this is not the only time this is happening, as I have lost bonus marks from previous FA's as well.

    I have noticed this aswell ingame, Damm annoying. Im sure im not the only one who would prefer no new content at the moment so that the bugs can be fixed ingame. As I have said on another post at this year winter event the game didn't unlock the Breen Plesh Brek Heavy Raider and only the Chel Grett Warship project. All these bugs reminds me of the Legacy of Romulus launch period.:(

    The bonus marks are always added to the end mark rewards or mark reward boxes. From the amount of dyson and nukara marks it looked to be correct. 80 nukara marks is only achievable during the mark event, same for 83 dyson marks.

    .....don't know if you were being accidentally obvious or not, it seems your just not aware of the intent of the post, this issue was part of the marks event, as I underlined here. The point of the post is the bonus marks from the event do not get added to inventory, as described in the post, as well as seen in the video.

    As I said bonus marks are never added to your inventory, they are awarded to your end reward whether it be marks, or boxes containing marks. The video clearly depicted that you did in fact get bonus marks, because if those missions are completed not during the event you would have received fewer marks each time.

    Spire mission rewards normally 30+marks (40+ during event).
    Breach normally rewards 60+marks (80+ possible during event).
    CEE normally awards 60 marks (80 during event).

    All three missions give a award box containing the regular and any possible event marks together, and not separately.

    If that's what they do, its just plain stupid. To have an event that advertises a double reward for completion of a mission, only to have 2 windows show that reward, and not specify that the 2nd window is only what then.. a verification? This is just stupid and confusing.

    If that is indeed what they did, it would have made much more sense to just have a verification window box list the rewards so players know what is going on, like this:

    Regular Reputation marks reward = ______
    Bonus Reputation marks reward = ______
    Total Reputation marks reward = ______

    Or listing the marks reward as you did above, then at least you would know what the intent was, instead of just mirroring 2 reward boxes with nothing but undefined totals.

    LOL yeah I never said they was smart. ;)

    As someone else has said you are getting the correct amount of marks, you just haven't been told how many bonus marks you get.

    I rarely ask for fleet marks, instead of a particular type, but on other FA's when I have asked for fleet marks I have got two windows come up. One with the base reward one with the bonus marks.
    I do not know if it occurs on the Dyson Events but I think a simular condition of should be applied so we know what are normal marks and what are bonus.
