TF/Mish Arc Progress bar!

[Jacktar]

Hi, you know the ones, as seen in your contacts box that changes colour to blue as you work through the missions.

They really wind me up because they are always wrong.

They will show you at 100% complete when the task is not complete and the contact is still giving you missions.

How many times have you seen the plaintive ask in team chat “last one?” or “how many left to do?”.

Now even the two brand new missions we got in last patch are doing it wrong as well.

I was at a fully coloured bar three missions before end of arc!

And being new content with not a clue how much (time wise) was left to do.

Every TF and mish arc ingame has a fixed number of parts and I would love to see the display show eg 0/7 (whatever) instead of some inaccurate colour filled bar.

Old type download screens were the same, just a crawl along a line with no proper data, thank goodness we now get both the old progres colour and either a percentage downloaded or estimated time left (albeit that can be just as whacky)

 

So can we get a parts completed counter either in place of or as an addition to the colour crawl bar?

Thanks

Valid request, although that's not what the bars are intended to show. They show your level of familiarity with a contact. Originally, you had to do several missions with a contact before unlocking the "call" button (which now unlocks immediately on TFs). You also had to earn progress toward unlocking enhancements sold by the contact. Before stores sold all 26 enhancement types, you had to buy less common types from mission contacts of your origin.
