Host can enter a fissure mission without a relic even if he selected one

27 points · submitted May 2017 by u/Gendalph · Bug · archived

subj

So, if you're entering a fissure mission as a host and selected mission resets during countdown when some player joins (this is a bug in itself), your selected relic gets unequipped.

And you don't get to select one.

And you don't know it until the end of the mission, because host can't see his equipped relic anyway.

How's that? Did I get a triple?

Oh, and it is a fairly common occurrence.

Here I had a Neo V3 equipped prior to entering a mission: http://imgur.com/a/rmsMA

Yeah, this has been happening for a while now, for some reason.

it is 100% the most annoying bug while trying to ducat farm, let me tell ya.

I tried to search forums and the first report of something relevant was on April 6th.

Literally over a month ago.

I had to watch the others pick a rare part while i couldn't do anything. was sure i picked a relic before starting the mission. The funny thing is that the mission was not endless and i collected all 10 reactants.

+1, when you quit every third mission for thinking damn i don't have a relic equipped

This. I wish the game would just let me start the mission by myself and let people join in progress.

Go to options and set your desirable ping to something like 100ms, this will lower your chances at joining any existing lobby.

Then, when matchmaking can't put you in a lobby at the beginning - hit that "Start Game" button - voila!

There is a catch, however: this makes you highly susceptible to aforementioned bug :)

No offense but I'm not trading one short stick for another.

I've had this happen a few times. It seems to be related to when someone leaves the group while you are at the navigation screen trying to start a mission. One time It even affected a radshare group where 3 people managed to enter a relic mission without a relic equipped.

A-ha! This makes sense. It happened to me last night, and I lost out on Vaubaun Prime Blueprints. While I was frustrated, I'm glad to know what caused it.

Yup, has happened a few times to me over the past week or so.
