My Rolleyes was there for a reason @ those that thought I really was thinking that Cannoneers was coming out then. Rolleyes

Also, obviously the glitch hasn't been fixed. I have MP Hound Earrings that have epic potential, and I still see 48% ACC and 6% LUK on them.

The fix just isn't retroactive, huh?

Two Rare Neos, cubing the 109 DEF one.

 105 DEF

 Before

Hey look, it's Epic now, and 12% LUK

 After

Retalion Wrote:I'm not sure where (I think it was on here), but someone had their 3L'd item go down to 2L, and then used Premium cubes to get it back to 3, just to have it happen again and have to premium cube it again. Should such a person not be compensated for the error on Nexon's part and all that extra money they spent on cubes?

It wasn't me who said something but I had it happen to me. It only cost me one premium cube but just an announcement about this 3 days, 7 days, an hour after it started happening would be a vast improvement over the 33 days it's taken them to acknowledge this problem.

I don't understand if they just dismissed all of the tickets up until they decided to look into this as kids not realizing what they were doing or if they just didn't see any of the tickets until now because they are so backlogged.

Either way a horribly long time for some news on what is presumably their main money maker.

Unfortunately there is zero incentive for them to do better next time.

As I learned today, after buying 3 Premium Cubes for my 3L->2L items, using another regular cube will still get the lost line back.

I don't get it. I really don't. What's the point of saying it's fixed when it isn't? Even if it is fixed, which it isn't, what's the point in not releasing legendary as soon as possible when people aren't going to cube as much until it is?

I really don't get it.

They might have released this a bit early wait until the sc this week to see if get fix by then. Also the missing line for the ponteial might be a legend ponteial that is not in the data yet reason it doesnt show up. This info was brought up a month back when this all started

Waltzing Wrote:If you are still experiencing this issue, it is important to submit screenshots through a ticket (you'll have to upload the screenshots to an image hosting service). That way, specific examples can be given to the developers.

Please try this format:
- There should be a screenshot that shows your stats without the item equipped.
- There should be another screenshot that shows your stats with the item equipped.
- Each screenshot should show the Equip tab of your item inventory open, your Equip inventory open, and your character stat menu open. The menus should be spaced so they can all be clearly seen.
- Hover your cursor over the affected item in each screenshot so its stats are displayed.
- Please also include a precise description of the problem.

Its safe to say waltzing>hime concerning certain aspects of the game. He even edit one of hime posts about the problem

Wow judging by what Waltzing said, it actually looks like Nexon is attempting to care/fix this problem. Color me suprised.

Issue with Potential lines, and Miracle Cube concerns - SaptaZapta - 2011-11-01

Wow, judging by what Waltzing said, it actually looks like Nexon hasn't a bleeping clue what's going on with their game. How on Earth can they declare it "fixed" and then suddenly ask for info such as he requested, which indicates they don't actually know what the problem was? Also, where is their own testing team? They can't use cubes? They can't use a debugger to see what the actual data is that's displaying as 12%? Jeezus censored Christ, the incompetence is limitless. Color me unsurprised.

Issue with Potential lines, and Miracle Cube concerns - Worthyness - 2011-11-01

Hey Guys! We fixed the issue! Except for the lines disappearing part and the part where your %s are actually +s and maybe the part where your &s aren't accurate either. Actually we didn't fix a fucking thing, we just want to sound competent and want you to know that we'll maybe have this fixed during the next patch. But as a temporary solution, you can recube your 1 line item and get your 2 lines back!

Issue with Potential lines, and Miracle Cube concerns - CrazyNomad - 2011-11-01

Nexon probably noticed people weren't buying cubes anymore, so they had this idea to put a notice up saying everything is fixed so people would start buying cubes again.

nexon trolling at its finest.

Issue with Potential lines, and Miracle Cube concerns - SaptaZapta - 2011-11-01

To tell the truth, I can't see how they could fix the +/% problem without a patch, either.
The client just plain doesn't know how to display a "+14 DEX" line on a Unique item. It's not in its string table.
Short of actually changing the potential of all items with undisplayable lines to something else, there is no way to fix it server-side. Their notice just makes no sense at all.

Hime edited by Waltzing Wrote:As a clarification we did not make any changes to the Potential system you know (and it isn't going to change and if it is we will tell you). The current issues you see are text issues but we understand there have been consequences of those issues (no, we did not add those issues intentionally). We did add newer and better potentials to the system when we added the Premium Miracle Cubes that were introduced in May. Thank you.
which sounds to me like an outright lie, unless the "glitched" lines have been happening since May and somehow it took us until September to notice.

As for "if it changes we will tell you" - they never told us what the possible potentials were, to start with. Our extractors did that. So why would they tell us if new possible lines were added?

So disgusting.

So +14 stat is supposed to be 'newer and better' than +6%? Either the people at Nexon-AM are lying fools, or they think we are.

No. You didn't. I've been cubing all throughout the summer and before this issue hit potential system was never touched.

I see what you did there. There wasn't a date in the quote, so I had no way of determining if that was posted before or after Nexon's announcement that they fixed this glitch. My responce was meant pretty sarcastically, but I was surprised to see that they actually asked for information rather than just saying "Oh we've realized there is an issue, allow us to take several weeks to fix it and then leave other aspects of the game more vunerable to glitches than when we started."

They should just revamp the potential system and add legendary pot already.

I've used about 15 since this and although the item remains rare everything has been 100% normal thus far.

Issue with Potential lines, and Miracle Cube concerns - White - 2011-11-01

Normal as in glitched or normal as in how it used to be?

Issue with Potential lines, and Miracle Cube concerns - Grey - 2011-11-01

I have never seen messed up potentials at rare, only on items that are epic and above.

Issue with Potential lines, and Miracle Cube concerns - XxSilencer - 2011-11-01

Normal as in how they used to be, 3% this and that and random +12 or w/e of stats.

I've only seen them on Unique, but that's cause I ONLY see smega'd items that are unique with glitched stats.

I'm surprised they didn't jump on this straight away, considering that it was reducing their profits.

Probably didn't reduce their profits by THAT much or they would of said something sooner. They probably did it to see how their sales would be affected. Nexon is learning about how much they can abuse us :'(
