"No Cog" Glitch

Happend at Tala this weekend. USPS3
and this was after 2 restarts from whipes

My group had this occur on Saturday evening at Tala (USPS3). It was the first death in the inside zone.

BUMP
This is a serious issue.

saw it happen everytime in prime and now it's spreading to dawn at the tala fight.

yea this happened to me too at the tala fight... please let this be fixed before it becomes a major bug

This is one of the most annoying raid glitches that I know of right now. This needs to be fixed. I know Mepps just replied to a thread saying that it is not intended and would like more info on it. I am sorry but there really is no more info we can give for this. We get knocked out in Prime and there is no cog to pick us back up. Its not like a certain boss attack or boss or add causes it. It just happens during this raid. If we had more info, trust me on this we would tell you more details than what we know.

It's not just in prime happens anywhere just more noticeable in boss fights. Next time when i get on and see it i'll see if can put my time and what instance it happened.

This "no cog" glitch has been around since Prime came about and the DEVs haven't done anything about it and really have no incentive to do so since people are still going to play the game regardless.

So you can keep complaining and have it fall on deaf ears or you can truly have them hear you through you wallets and their pockets

Totally agree almost a year and it hasnt been fixed yet. Alot of simple things I've noticed lately that aim at soe is trying to milk as many replay badges out of people as they can

I've seen this happen recently on the PC side, both USPC and EUPC. I always thought it was PS3 only, but after two updates back, it now happens regularly in Prime and Tala. This is very frustrating, especially since oftentimes it is the healer that goes down and doesn't get a chance to come back up.

i have seen it most recently in open world areas(for instance little bohemia) where i would toggle pvp, beat down some heroes and not see the wheel. not that it really matters in my case, just throwing it out there

Would be nice to see this fixed.

I'd make sure we're directing our votes here...

Fix it mEOW

That's not a glitch. That's intended. They removed downing opposing faction in open world PvE due to the excessive amount of griefing that was happening with the Ops. It's a little late now, but they did fix it.

This is SO random.

We were fighting Tala a few nights ago, and several people had gone down during the fight - but they had cogs, so we got them up and continued.

Then when Tala had 10% health, she one-shotted someone and the poor guy had no cog.

Good luck finding this, devs ... I can't see any pattern here...

HUH? You can still hit the cog on people downed in Open World PvP but you're saying if people are flagged up and fight in PvE you can't? That makes no sense.

No, it makes perfect sense, considering they always do the easy quick fix way. Instead of making it for people flagged PvP only, they removed it completely. So if you want to down a person in the open world, PvP phase! lol

I must test this. This is the very first I've ever heard of it and since I hardly ever go to PvE phase I would never see this. Also how do you kill someone that isn't flagged for PvP? In PvE phase you have to manual toggle it but in PvP phase it's automatically toggled on.

That's the point. lol In PvE, opposing faction used to eff with the people running Ops. There was a notorious villain that all she ever did was hang around Tala and down players that get one shotted. Said she was Otisburg's reckoning and making us better players. When all she ever did was press E on a player and not go PvP phase when challenged. People were asking for this for a long time, they gave it, a little late, but they finally gave it. Also, the Devs are notorious for also not publicly announcing actual positive changes. So there are a lot of undocumented stuff. Like how your loadout goes grey when you are being controlled.
