Villains Bug? 

A few weeks ago I noticed this... I thought the problem would quickly resolve itself but it hasn't yet. So, I'm wondering if anyone knows if this is just a minor bug that will eventually be fixed, or if anyone else is having this problem, or even how to fix it... let me know. Thanks.


It says Sidekick, instead of Lackey.


It shows my difficulty as Heroic, instead of Villainous.

Small note*
I run the CovUpdater and not CohUpdater

RE: Villains Bug? 

Haven't seen that particular bug, however, if it's been brought to their attention, i'm sure it'll be resolved soon.

Now, it doesn't matter if you use the CoH/CoV updater, as it is only one game in essence.

The only thing I've noticed is how I no longer get the Black Market reference when selling/buying items.

RE: Villains Bug? 

We had that bug as well on the EU. It appeared after the Christmas Event began, probably due to Heroes and Villains sharing another new mini zone.

I've been away the last two weeks, but it looks like they fixed it on our side, reputation is once again displayed as 'Rugged', 'Villainous', etc, and the Lackey and Malefactor buttons are back

The devs will probably come around to fixing it soonish, but other than a little confusion about reputations, it doesn't have any effect on gameplay

RE: Villains Bug? 

Mine still does that. For me it started the day I11 hit. So I don't think it had anything to do with the winter event.

I don't mind too much. It's not game-breaking so I doubt it's to high up on their to-fix list.

Cheers.

RE: Villains Bug? 

Just to chime in here, this glitch is known. In addition, it can crop up if you switch 'sides' of the game; especially in one session of the Updater being active. In other words, if you have been playing Villains and the 'Malefactor' and 'Villain Rep' settings have been correct, if you then go to Heroes you will remain 'Malefactor' and 'Villain Rep' and vice versa.

At least that is what has been reported on the OB's.

RE: Villains Bug? 

Hmmm, that is interesting. I don't play Heroes... But, I think I will log into Heroes and switch back to Villains, just to see if it fixes anything.

Mine was like that constantly and I haven't played on heroes in a very long time.
