Fort of the damned clear commendation not counting ...

  • @mr-furley sagte in Fort of the damned clear commendation not counting ...:

    Still not working for me after this "hotfix" too. I just completed the fotd two more times tonight without getting credit for a total of seven clears and not a single one has counted.

    I want that jacket so bad but it feels like it just wont happen. I wish they would put the jacket up for sale with gold as a work around to this stupid bug. Its very demoralizing to spend all this time working hard at something you know is time limited and not getting the credit you know you deserve.

    The event and the cosmetics aren’t time limited no worries!

  • 7 FOTD cleared (boss and key down) and 0 work for the commendation ! please dear rare make an hotfix really quickly and give us a BIG gift for this mistake

    Every time there is a update it's geting worse than worse

  • @reapinglegion He needs to be on the island

  • @satanicnemesis Got any proof of it or did it just happend one time?

    Cuz all we do is to speculate....nobody knows for sure.

  • Guys, the fort is staying after the event so not a big deal. It's unfortunate but it's obviously a complicated fix or it would have been patched already. Have a little patience.

  • Still broken and no retroactive fix. This is literally lazy trash work on Rare's end with this, my god.

    The very least you could do is reward retroactively instead of assuming we're all idiots and pretending like the data and metrics on completions aren't there.

    Atleast with not retroactively awarding the athena comms you could hide behind "we want new targets for players to work towards and not just put in commendations plenty of people would already have unlocked right off".. here though... just terrible.

    I literally called this prior, and they managed to drop it, and handle it in a worse state than what was expected.

  • @reapinglegion I have 22 counted completions. I’ve tested it plenty to get it 100% every time. I think I can safely say I know for sure. alt text

    They mentioned it several times. Keep someone there who can stay alive the whole way through. Tuck somewhere.

    Although some people are still saying no dice to that working.

  • @tre-oni People who say it doesn't work are the ones hiding on the boat.

  • @satanicnemesis Alright, you need a life ;P - But cool, then you can confirm that it works 100%

  • @reapinglegion you are assuming that most of those are actually me doing the fort ;)

  • Just going to add my two cents: I just completed the fort from beginning to end and did not get the commendation. Would be a shame if you have to have a crew mate alive on the island the whole time...

    That's how it probably is right now according to some people here and @SatanicNemesis who has confirmed it with 100%.....
    Maybe wait 'til next month for the "hotfix" to come or somesthing hahaha

  • Completed 4 before the "hotfix" and three this morning. No completion commendation, but def getting the Skelly ones.

    What's worse now is I didn't get any xp or gold for the turn in. 3 ship alliance, each had a full fort loot. We all got the pop ups for turn in, bit no one got the actual gold or xp.

    That's a total of ~7 hrs now that I've played this update, they'd better retroactively credit this.

  • @rcadden They said they wont. Basically tough luck. I find it weird how thats not tracked although they tracked that I killed a shark with a keg 15 months ago some time and gave me the achievement as soon as i logged in. Weird right?

    It's a joke tbh. It's like they think we're stupid.

  • So the "hotfix" is out? - I thought it wasen't...but alright alright cool.

    Where did they say that? Haven't seen any updates on their social

  • @rcadden It is on page 3 of this very thread, come on dude.

    When this is true I think Rare is lying! Like with the Shrouded Spoils Athena Commendations! Nobody can tell they had no track bout cashed Athena Chests

    so lucky we've got the infallible insiders and partners programs!!! :)
    good job guys.

    Not much else I can say, but if you look for it, you'll find it. I literally called this beforehand and it managed to be even less functional than expected.

    We really haven't come far from day 1 with this kind of thing have we? Magically cant retroactively award players for the time spent, just to be told as you said "we'll communicate better, we're changing up testing to prevent this stuff, etc.. we promise..

    But hey while we've got you, tune into these dudes playing arena!"

  • Our crew knocked out the Fort 4 times last night and we got 'credit' for two completions (including the achievement). Whether this is deliberate or not, we believe we understand why. It appears that to "clear the Fort of the Damned of all enemies" you have to be sure you've killed all of the skeletons that Graymarrow summons before you finish him off. We were completing the event as a "solo" galleon the first time, fending off other ships. We were killing all of the skellys to make it easier to focus on Graymarrow, and he was alone when we beat him. We got credit in the game immediately, and the achievement popped.

    Later on, we had some people of various levels of dependability decide to ally with us, and we know that on at least two of those occasions, there were still skellys in play when Graymarrow went down. In all, we only got credit for 2/4 completions. It seems to us that the key is for your crew to clear all of the enemies, and not to let killing Graymarrow clear them for you.

    Not very clear in the game if that's the case, but that seems like what we experienced.

  • I don't know why anyone thought they could retroactively add to the count - the count wasn't working, so there is no way to figure out an accurate count.

    Hopefully they come up with another hot fix for this issue.

  • @z0rk This is not correct, please read through the conversation before giving false information, it will just lead to more time wasting for other crews.

  • @satanicnemesis I did read the conversation, and saw your opinion. I know for certain that we got the commendation after every single one of us dying at least once during the fight. Therefore, I proposed an alternative theory based on our experience.

  • @z0rk Your theory is incorrect, you got the credit because someone was tucking on your island or someone in your crew/alliance didn't die.

    These are currently the only 2 known methods to get the commendation credit.

    • Sail (with the whole crew) away to a different island after killing Greymarrow then come back before opening the door.
    • Have someone survive the fort the whole time and be on the island.

    Believe it or not, but its been thoroughly tested. Your theory is incorrect and a result of coincidental timing to one of the two methods above.

    With the commendation broken at the moment, we don't need people muddying the waters even more.

  • Same for me, one came in next day then day later it went to two. Then I hit 5 but nothing for awhile. Since reached 6 but have done it more like 20. Put a support ticket it and had nothing back yet. Been 3 days not like SOT to ignore you although a Twitter post said they are working on a hotfix.

  • I have done the fort twice, I was on a galleon and there was no alliance. We did the entire ritual to activate, cleared every enemy, twice. We opened the vault twice, no one got the commendation for clearing the FoTD of all enemies, but the other commendations for killing the different color skeletons, talking to Jim etc all worked.

    Please fix and retroactively restore the commendation for everyone, not all of use have the time to go back and do everything again. Some of my crewmates have done it 10+ times and not received any credit for this commendation, asking people to do that again isn’t right. Twice isn’t that bad but I know others have done it many more times and received no credit.

    I am considering holding off doing the FoTD until this is fixed because it takes so long, I already am PL10, have more gold/doubloons than I can spend, and to have it not count makes it literally pointless, when all I need is that Jacket and the commendations!

    Please fix this Rare I love the game and the new update but just want credit for what I and others have already done. :)

  • It's bugged again! It worked for the last two days.

  • Cleared the FOTD 4 times now last night I killed Greymarrow and opened the fort still no commendations popped 😢😢

  • Still doesn’t work, did 2 today and only 1 counted. That’s 3/18 now. And still silence from Rare...

  • @xund3f1n3dx pareil pour moi

  • @tangus-00 said in Fort of the damned clear commendation not counting ...:

    To me a larger issue revolves around the Insider process (ie: why wasn't this caught?) But that's a conversation for another subforum.

    Who says it wasn't identified in insiders? Identified and fixed are not the same thing.
