ember7401 Posted December 3, 2021 Share Posted December 3, 2021 Why do I have to redo POSI 1 and POSI 2 and the Vazh Arc for bosses again when I HAVE all the badges?? IF a badge is linked to a group or boss it should backtrack...Use the badge as a counter for new credit... Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
lemming Posted December 3, 2021 Share Posted December 3, 2021 Most new badges don't have counters already associated with them. Plus, it is feasible to miss a couple of the Vahz, so not a foregone conclusion. It's not for the Defeat X number badges that pop up, that my badger hasn't already far exceeded the count, but it does give an excuse to play it more.

Players can CHOOSE to meet the requirements for being awarded a badge. Good luck! 1 2 Pocket D Zone Tour Best Post Ever.... Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

If they are new or different targets, different story. "Homecoming is not perfect but it is still better than the alternative.. at least so far" - Unknown (Wise words Unknown!)

TheZag Posted December 3, 2021 Share Posted December 3, 2021 Sometimes everything cant be awarded retroactively. Adding a bunch of checks for old badges in addition to the actual targets to award new badges. Thats where all the spaghetti code the devs have to fight with comes from. Its like thanks for the new stuff but i dont want to do it, just give me the reward. 1 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Ruin Mage Posted December 4, 2021 Share Posted December 4, 2021 Retroactivity very very rarely ever works, and CoH has never been about retroactive badges, especially for defeats. 1 alright buddy, it's time to shit yourselfcasts earthquake, activates dispersion bubble Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

If someone was able to point to the answer that would be great. If folks thought a thing should work and it didn't, it would make sense to ask, wouldn't it? There are a number of fixes related to the latest changes that we'll see down the road..

But i do know that it takes more code to do more things and that means more chances for things to get broken. Reminds me of a problem with a actual medical radiation device. Somewhere in its program there was an extra 's'. The machine worked fine for quite awhile but 1 time it gave a major overdose of radiation. Turns out that single extra character caused it.
