Linix Blue 5 Posted February 2, 2019 (edited) So I decided to try my luck at the FOY, (Fountain of Youth) at M12 a good 30 minutes before the patch, give or take. I succeeded. Well my friend got online before I did, and noticed that our ramshackle sloop hasn't even moved from its original location before we went to get the buff....now, I have a extremely strong feeling I will not have the buff due to the rollback/patch...thanks a bunch again @Jatheish On a side note, do NOT restart steam, lost 4 gigs of progress with my download...which is totally new to me.

Skyroguen 90 Posted February 2, 2019 i think the issue isn't the rollback or the update. it's the lack of communication and or time to prepare for such an update with profound impact. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

What this person said. A good notice or something would of prevented me from putting the effort into going for the FOY till after the update. 1 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Percieval 1,067 Posted February 2, 2019 There was an announcement made a couple hours before the patch. You could've known. Do they need to be more open about it? Sure. But if it was up to me, I wouldn't go FoY hunting hours before a major patch where a lot could go wrong. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

There is your non EA response. Yeah this response was a lot better than the typical EA bs. It makes perfect sense. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

And I do understand things could go wrong. Just mildly irritating. Not enough to make me quit like the other 20k people who have, or so I have read. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

But what did you have to check up opon? If I would be playing solo I'd make sure all my things are in order before I sign off. 1 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
