Are there any plans to compesate us for the lack of iso rewards in these events.
The bug is still present in WoM.

    Was just going to post about this. It's a bad enough bug made particularly offensive that it's happening during the double ISO events.

    I hope so, missed 4-5 Iso rewards In WoM and have barely done any.

    How about the broken match making, showing the same nodes/people?

    99.9% sure the problems are directly linked as they always happen together

    Does your job entail receiving shoelaces for completing certain tasks? If so, then yes, your company should definitely get you the shoelaces you are owed.

    This response contains so much win. Upvote ahoy.

    Just want to make sure I understand. Everybody complains about getting 20 iso, than when they don't get the 20 iso they complain. I'm so confused. Seems like a vicious cycle of complaining.

    Frustrating that this bug has yet to be acknowledged.

    Ice said they were investigating it during the Black Vortex run. I guess rather than it being fixed for Class of 2015, it just didn't crop up there (because it's not a pre-existing event?).

    Don't think you do understand. Edit: Maybe it was the pic Punisher put up, which I'm assuming was put up as a joke about D3s compensation policy..../Edit

    PVP nodes are repeatedly awarding nothing. The nodes that would normally give you a cover are supposed to be giving double iso rewards instead, but are glitched, not giving you any reward.
    So in these PVPs that are suppossed to award double iso, at least half, are not rewarding anything. They don't even give you the measly 30 iso for taking the match.

    In effect two of the three "double" iso event are at best giving you normal iso, but less iso than normal is a real possibility as well.
    The Class of 2015 PVP functioned fine, most likely because it was not designed with cover rewards as an option. Removing the cover awards from the other two PVPs seems to have caused the no reward glitch (which also allows you to attack the same target 2,3, 4, or more times in a row).

    This is awesome though if you know the other person is shielded and they are worth a lot.

    I've never seen someone complain about not receiving 20 iso, but as far as I'm concerned no reward and 20 iso are the same thing.

    They posted something in the bugs section about it but nothing since I last checked. It is rather annoying. I would say about 60% of my matches running up to 1000 for the IW cover were bugged.

    Personally, I'd be perfectly happy with a flat ISO payout of 1,000 for each event, as the players DID lose rewards. There's simply no getting around that fact, it happened. It's nobody's fault (well, its somebody's fault, but **** happens icon_e_wink.gif), but during events where the payout is supposed to be doubled, it kinda sucks that I'm actually banking ISO on par with or maybe even less than a regular PvP event.

    What concerns me more is the poor guys that are getting hit 7 times in a row because of this glitch. I know I always skip over people the 2nd time they show up when it glitches, and I imagine a lot of others do as well, but certainly not everyone does. Someone seeing the same name 4 times, who robbed them of hundreds of event points, is gonna create some bad feelings, and that's no fun.

    I'm going to go out on a limb and guess that D3 is going to give us something for all the lost ISO, especially considering it was supposed to be doubled.

    I'll also go out on a limb and predict that a bunch of us will feel like our eventual compensation isn't enough.

    I have absolutely no idea what would actually be fair (how would they even measure it I wonder?), but if it includes ANY HP, I'll be calling that one a win. icon_e_wink.gificon_e_biggrin.gif

    Well if his shoelace broke at work and he tripped and hurt himself, he could be eligible for Workers Compensation (I'm in HR lol). So technically he would be entitled to something! iso8.pngiso8.pngtoken_event.pngtoken_event.pngspideycoin.pngspideycoin.png

    Clearly. PvP doesn't give 20 ISO awards after finishing a battle.
