Paint names messed up in store for Cobra Mk IV
- Thread starter Gibbon
- Start date
To add to the above, if i click on the green one it says, Stygian Blue. If i click on the gold one it says Stygian Brass. If i click on the Brass looking one it says Stygian Green. If i click on the red one it says Stygian Purple. If i click on the blue one it says Stygian Red. If i click on the purple one it says Stygian Tungsten. Properly fubared
Have either of you bought one and if so, what do you end up with; the one that you can see or the one that the name relates to? I want the red one for my Mk4 but I don't want to have to buy the purple one because it's the one that currently shows as red only to end up with a purple paint if they fix it at some point in the future.
I can just imagine how that conversation would go with support. 'Yeah I wanted the red paint' 'OK so which one did you buy?' 'The one that said purple'. Etc.
Also have either of you ticketed it?

We should be grateful they are producing paint for the Cobra IV again .... very nice to see 
FD can see where the money is
FD can see where the money is I had to look up what stygian meant: extremely dark, gloomy, or forbidding the stygian blackness of the cave.
Is this a doom paint for the Cobra IV?

Reading the other thread, it seems this isn't only a problem for the Cobra IV
No worries. If it's also an issue with some other ships, perhaps they'll get onto it fast and sort it out.
Have you changed you HUD colors?
They look to be labelled correctly in the store. Bit pricey though - I much prefer the Predator pack anyway, glad I bought when they came in a pack.
I just checked and although they show the wrong label when you just mouse over them, if you actually click one as if going to buy it, the colour and name in the pop-up match. I would assume that you'll get the correct paint.
Sometimes I wonder if with the bugs in the game, the bugs in the store, there are malicious people looking to sabotage Frontier ?
Because I have difficulty assimilating these situations to incompetence. Because it seems unrealistic to be wrong in colors.

No, all standard.
It does make you wonder for sure. I actually think the core problem lies with the programming mentality within FD. They trust their programmers to write the code and then release it and hope it works. Yet again, without any form of testing, here we are again with the store messing up, not for the first time i hasten to add. I mean how simple would it be to actually test the code works? Maybe they should do an internal beta as it's obvious they don't, otherwise this store issue would have been spotted.
It's also clear the programming dramas are not unique to ED, JWE suffers from the same issues, their latest patch is a car crash apparently if you read their forums.
I am really surprised by these bugs, mainly concerning the store which is something very sensitive.
I have never seen an online sales site with bugs, I must say.
Don't worry. You can earn up to 400 tears per week just by playing the game.
This situation must dissuade people from buying. For my part, my anxieties go directly when it is necessary to pay online.
The Cobra Mark 4 is a ship of poison powered by tears. People hate it for being exclusive, people hate it for being slow, people hate it full stop.
And you know what? When you log off the CM4 just sits back and laughs at us all. It is like this from American Dad:
It brings out the worst in us all.
