[Unable to spawn EB patrol/ambushes in AE]

Additional information: If I create custom EBs, then they will work on both ambush and patrol. So it is only the standard EBs that do not work in this manner.

Reloaded Coh binaries..still can't spawn..sigh...

Ah so maybe on the white pieces I'll stick to the original color and see if that helps. Yeah, this EB spawn/patrol thing is driving me batty. Sparky helped to narrow it down.. hoping Devs can look into it.. I'm at a dead-end now.

[Unable to spawn EB patrol/ambushes in AE]

Been working with GM Sparky on diagnosing issue and we determined that for my ARCs (any, have tested across a few), the following situation arises regarding EBs:

1. If I explicitly select an EB as a Boss it spawns

2. If I try to include EBs as a group for either Patrols, or Ambushes, they do not spawn

   - Create a custom villain group

   - Select Standard character pane from Group Editor

   - Double-click to select characters.. (e.g. War, Scarcity 35-54 range)

   - Save

3. When I then specify this group as either a patrol or ambush, they won't show. If I augment group with non-EB characters (e.g. minion to boss) then those levels show not the EB (even tried adding AV into one of these groups but that didn't show either, just the minions, LTs, Bosses).

I know that Homecoming is different than Live. In Live, I was able to have EB-specific ambushes (custom group with those only those aforementioned Rikti EBs included) and that worked ok.

 

On a possibly related issue, when I use certain robot toons as enemy groups now (IDF, PPD), their shoulder pieces show up as white (thinking undefined). Same was true of Ravager Bosses.  But main issue is the lack of spawning of EBs in ambushes/patrols.

 

Thank you

 

[AE Bug: Standard toons costume errors]

Since the patch, if you use PPD enforcer or War Walker in your mission, the chest piece is now undefined..just shows up as a white piece with no detail.  Again, in both cases I edited the standard character to change their colors.

 

Thx!

[Using Elite Bosses in Ambush/Group]

Interesting.. will give that a try.. will also try AVs...even on hard, and using pre-defined characters (Rikti EBs), they still didn't show..maybe I can no longer use them

[Using Elite Bosses in Ambush/Group]

Before shutdown, I had a couple of missions where I could include elte bosses in an ambush group or patrol group. I don't seem to be able to do that anymore, was there a change to the game? Has anyone else been able to do so since we've been back?

[A Question from The Homecoming Team]

1. Finish Khalista Wharf.. it's a beautiful place

2. If possible (though might be improbable), upgrade graphics.. CoX content + enhanced graphics = Nirvana.. I would live in the city perpetually

3. Not having to restart

4. Enhancements to AE including making more of the main game's powersets available and more maps available. I know people have mixed feelings for AE, but the amount of creativity afforded to players is unrivaled

5. More content and continued evolution of the story lines

6. Ability to play even after death? Ok..just joking but we're passionate about this game, perhaps we can even play in the afterlife 😁
