Crystalline Entity Mission Bug

edited March 2015 in PC Gameplay Bug Reports
Yesterday I attempted to do the mission on advanced. Not even 1/3 of the way through it popped up a mission reward for a common mission while the entity was at like 89%. Then it spawned like 20 rifts with ships pouring out of them. After we destroyed all the ships and the entity there were no rewards, no shard no R&D box, no common rewards for killing ships. I also noticed that when I go to leave the map I get disconnected I am assuming that is part of the bug.

Later in the day I tried it again hoping it was just a glitch. This time no entity. Same result.

    I have had close to the same thing, except there was no reward, of any kind. This was with my kdf Romulan twice in since start if the event. My Klingon has 4 the most between my 5 toon. Each time for me NO reward was given.

    If you got 10 marks, it was the 'fail' reward. Apparently you failed the mandatory optional of a number of people surviving the entity's shockwave. It's curious though that you say the entity was at 89%. Should have been close to 66%.

    After such a fail, destroying the entity yields no other reward and doesn't count as a finished run for the crystal shard.
    TOIVA, Toi Vaxx, Toia Vix, Toveg, T'vritha, To Vrax: Bring in the Allegiance class.
    Toi'Va, Ti'vath, Toivia, Ty'Vris, Tia Vex, Toi'Virth: Add Tier 6 KDF Carrier and Raider.
    Tae'Va, T'Vaya, To'Var, Tevra, T'Vira, To'Vrak: Give us Asylums for Romulans.

    Don't make ARC mandatory! Keep it optional only!

    This happened to 2 of my characters and my KDF toon twice. It's really bugging me.

    The issue is it's failing the first optional before the entity even sends out the pulse. Something is causing it to count ships destroyed before the pulse.

    The problem after that is people getting pulled into an already failed pve. Why would anyone want to stick around for no reward.

    I'm seeing this as well.
    Murphy's laws:
    1- Murphy’s Law tells us that anything that can go wrong will go wrong.
    2- And anything that does go wrong will get progressively worse.
    3- And if you survive the first two laws it’s time to panic.

    I've experienced the bug mentioned here, though not during the recent days.

    I however encountered a new weird bug. As soon as we got the entity down to 33% we got the whole mission lost thingy and could choose our reduced rewards, and in the list on the side it told us we had lost more than 30% of the ships to that pulse, but the pulse wasn't even fired yet! So yeah, we did nothing wrong and got kicked by a bug that triggered the pulse kill condition without the pulse yet being fired.
