II CZ acting very buggy.

[jnTracks]

Don't know if this is common to all CZ as I've not done that much of it before now but today I was playing around in the new event and found a fellow to wing with. We played in a Low and it was fine. Then we try a medium and find that there isn't anyone else but the two of us on our side. That goes bad and we jump out to recover. Then try the medium again and this time the "pick a side" message never comes for either of us. we fly around for ages being totally ignored. Eventually we try lighting up one ship and the enemy side does turn red, but we get no credit for the kill and nobody else in the CZ targets us. So we hop out a try to re-instance. Try the medium again and the first problem repeats. There are 6 enemy spec ops there and nobody from our side so we slaughtered quick.

So what's up? Are the medium intensity bugged right now? What're we doing wrong?

I have instances empty of ships & just a load of debris in my home system, no way I can see to win. No way to lose either though so I've just gone scavenging in a T-7 instead

Been doing Medium CZ's for the CG for the past few days with no issues, other than glitching of some of the special events (spec ops message appearing but then instantly completing with no spec ops ships sometimes). My approach to the CG has been to go to the High intensity, clear it, then go to the medium intensity, clear it, rinse repeat.

I have had no issues like you describe except for when I go back to a CZ I had just cleared too quickly...then it's empty. That's pretty much par for the course for CZs.

My experience in the CG's CZs has been much the same as @Jaggid Edje, unfortunately at the last one the Spec Ops did turn up as a wing of FdL so I departed much chewed up. Likewise I have been moving from High to Medium and back as the supply of targets runs out or as happened once everybody became a target.

Not being all that brave I haven't risked the Low intensity CZs.

I could have said the same too on Friday. One war ended & another began, the new one has the empty instances. I guess intermittent bugs are the hardest to find.

Yes OP, it happens in Open unfortunately, so you are forced to switch to Solo. Happens in Medium and High Intensity CZs (not tried Low) and also in the AX CZs. It's a "feature" of CZs at the moment.

Game is really broken in a lot of areas. I hit several empty CZs yesterday. Today I dropped into several high threat USS sites and nothing was there. Was the threat boredom? Because if so, they achieved it. Then I couldn't get out of witch space. Had to quit to desktop. Then I lost another BP after jumping from the engineer base again.

Happens in low as well. You even get the 'welcome commander" message, but no ships.

Another thing we ran into was playing the CZ and ship after ship goes down but the bars never move. Eventually we were out of ammo so we left to cash out, without the win. Seemed like the victory was bugged, but who knows.
Sounds like the answer is yes, mostly. And kind of probably because of this CG that's happening all in this one system with two stations. I tried again a little while ago and getting the same thing over and over. Every instance was blank. Welcomed me, but no ships. Had to switch to solo, which is really a drag since having a single system event is actually really nice to see all these humans around and talking.
