Old Event Auto-Completion

protoneousprotoneous Member Posts: 3,161 Arc User
In the PC Patch Notes for 10/24/19 it states:
Resolved an issue that prevented several projects from auto-completing in the old Event Reputation UI.
Those projects will now be auto-completed, granting you the rewards.

I was wondering how things are going for everybody for old event auto-completion?

The reason I ask is I still have some characters with only one of several FTFO projects completed and those ready to be claimed seem to be missing the icon for the 3 FTFO reward boxes giving a choice of an upgrade or spec point that I thought were there before.

There may very well be a reason for this I missed or perhaps an update on social media I haven't access to. Will the other projects complete after claiming the first? Are the 3 FTFO boxes still included in the reward? Any further information or comments much appreciated.

    I haven't. Quite frankly I'm afraid to :o Maybe I'll miss out on the spec points/upgrades. This is why I'm asking those that aren't afraid. To try and get some feedback on the expected or intended behavior or if there's any other info I missed.

    I did notice once if you had two or more only one completes.

    On one toon I had 2/4 auto-completed so it seems results may vary.

    With regards to the 3 FTFO reward boxes I'm going to have to keep in mind if that same project was completed on another toon it's once per account. Keeping track of who got what is something I'm not going to miss with the old system.

    I decided to press the button. Two buttons even! I was no longer afraid :# Completion of the 2/4 projects mentioned above didn't trigger the others. They remain uncompleted. It did get my rewards.

    Seems it's just an all projects didn't complete sort of thing for me.

    The lack of the 3x FTFO reward boxes for some projects is definitely due to that they are once per account. I've just claimed projects and have others yet to be auto-completed that still either reward or show them for items not previously claimed so all is working fine in this respect. Duplicate projects are always going to be a headache.

    Still have 17 entries over a couple of accounts for projects not completed.

    Thanks for this link. Seems I missed it in my search.

    If the thread shown above linked to the bug reports section can be confirmed as the correct thread to report old projects not auto-completed by a CM will request that this thread be closed and will post character name@handles and projects not auto-completed there.

    I still have a Mirror Invasion project unfinished on two of my characters that was supposed to have been auto-completed a while back, but never got completed. Already sent a pair of tickets to Cryptic, and was told to look at facebook. Even posted on facebook that the issue is ongoing to this day.

    I had one that didn't auto complete. Kept waiting for it to do so. I thought maybe they'd make another pass at fixing the 'auto complete'. Finally got sick of looking at the unfinished project and sent in a ticket... CS had it fixed in a few days.

    It's great that customer service fixed you up.

    Given that I'm at 17 16 uncompleted old projects (all FTFO) over a couple of accounts and that there seems to be other reports of the same, I'm hoping they do make another pass at the auto completion in a future patch. That would be a lot of tickets to throw at CS.

    And lots of tickets at CS is how they'll know it's still a problem.

    I'd like to think there's more ways for an issue to be identified than having CS flooded with trouble tickets.

    Given the number of people that are still posting in the link mentioned several posts above in this thread (despite it's age and vague title) as well as in other threads, I'm still hoping for another auto-completion pass in a future patch.

    It may very well be something as simple as only so many projects can be auto-completed at one time until the player cleans out the completed projects.

    It's also nice to know that there are a few people in the game's official forum that have the ability to flag an issue for further attention similar to CS.

    Getting back to the behavior - 100% of my own remaining uncompleted projects are either the Terran Guerrilla Combat Armor (x11) or the Console - Universal - Priors World Elite Defense Satellite (x5) over 11 characters.

    I wouldn't be so sure. If CS is capable of manually resolving the issue, they may decide that letting CS handle it is sufficient, unless the problem is widespread enough that individual manual resolution is impractical. A few players posting on the forums is not it.

    If mine hadn't all completed, I'd be asking CS to fix it.

    I logged into a Character that I hadn't logged into recently the other night and an Event auto completed. It unlocked the Lukari Ho'kum that I had unlocked for the Account a few years ago. Only a Ship Box, no other stuff.

    I guess I should check out a few of my other Characters.

    I reacted (after the October 24th maintenance) on the thread garaks31 linked to above. (Terran Guerrilla Combat Armor * 6 non completed, details in the link - page 2+ only is relevant - to not clutter things here)

    UPDATE: SOLVED (for me at least, and also for danpmk from other related topic) after the 31/19/2019 maintenance.

    Thank you very much for solving this! :)

    My 16/16 uncompleted old FTFO projects were auto-completed after the October 31 /19 patch.

    All projects provided the proper rewards due (including the 3x FTFO boxes - once per account ).

    Nicely done Cryptic and more than fair treatment for old projects ^^

    People may want to check characters they haven't logged onto for a while.

    Will check my pylons and see if the issues have been resolved.
