When can we expect a fix for this and what sort of compensation can we expect?
I dont have a lot of time to play video games, so when I pay $90 and experience these types of interupptions, it does actually feel quite costly.
Big fan of the game, just want to be able use what I already paid for months before your game even launched. I'd hate to feel like that was a mistake.
So I paid $130 CDN or so months in advance just to be the lucky owner of what? I don't play often so I got to use the weapons I paid an extra $30 for like four times. I never do these preorders but I thought why not for once. What a mistake. It's bad enough that the game is so close to the last one in so many ways but this will be a problem. Fix it all you like, I want what I paid for and something for the inconvenience of not getting what I paid for.
I get this frustrates people; I found it mildly irksome when I realized my golden sniper rifle was gone, too.
But.
This is par for the course in modern gaming corporate culture, folks. Nothing at all controversial about it; bugs sneak through QA to be released, customers have to deal until they get around to fixing it. Want it to change? Stop spending money. As long as this business model remains profitable, it will remain unchanged.
I've been enjoying the game just fine without them.
And I haven't spent a cent on extras since I bought the game.
Turns out it's easy to make $ in this game.
No, I'm not going to be That Guy who says that and then doesn't tell you how to do it.
It's simple.
Go bow hunting. Take a couple perks along for the ride. Four skins per animal. Headshots tend to end it quickly without a chase. (Which is silly, since heart/lung shots ought to be far superior, but that's games for you)
Wandering weapon merchants will almost just about come to you to throw $ at you for skins.
Turn $ into bomber plains and rocket choppers and tricked out guns == play how you want with whatever type of toys you want.
The premium stuff that disappears to this bug? It's all cosmetic. I don't have a gold sniper rifle atm. But I have other .50 cal sniper rifles that work the same.
The idea this bug breaks the game and leaves players with just melee weapons is silly.
So let's all go shoot us some cultists and enjoy the Testy Festy!
Because if your game release doesn't feel like an old-fashioned beta test, you're not doing it "right."
Fix buggy weapon issues ASAP! This is madness. I’m put off that Ubisoft has released no comments in response to this thread beyond restart, reinstall, start over. Tried these already, turns out just to be an inconvenience that solves nothing. Will be flipping FC5 into the trash next week if Ubisoft does not reply to this issue and restore confidence that all of us affected by this problem can return to the game with all of our DLC and other paid items intact.
This really is an absolute joke! This isn't a normal bug with content already in the game, this is stuff we PAID for!!! How convenient that it's just the PAID DLC. I want a refund. If they don't give us a refund they better really compensate us with something in game. I know there are other guns and vehicles, that's not the point. The game isn't unplayable but I want to play with the **** I PAID for!! Fix this now.
I keep losing all the weapons I got with the DLC and awarded weapons. Also loose all the vehicles too.
When is a fix coming. I have to reload after each mission to regain the items.
Scratch that. even reloading sometimes does not give you your stuff back.. Seriously.. DLC is not in the game that was paid extra money for??
