Bug: Could Not Use Basic Attack

Can you not unlock a hero? Did all your progress get reset to level 1? Are the elites impossible to defeat on a specific level?

Bug: Could Not Use Basic Attack

Postby MikeP999 » Fri Aug 26, 2011 3:23 am

Hi,

I noticed a problem. I had just about finished the boss area of level and needed to switch to one of my 2 remaining squad members. Wraith or Oreon couldn't perform basic attacks. Their skills were also unavailable. All I could with either of them was run around and eventually die....

Meditron [my 3rd squad member] functioned fine up until his demise.

This is the first time seeing this bug and thought I should report it.


On a side note: the parts store is only listing 'Hand' parts. Glitch?

Such a bug...sounds apart from what we've heard of recently.

If you can provide as much rich detail as you can, that'd be great. Odds are just one simple factor caused this problem so if we can find it, we may be able to replicate it :3.

On a side note: Yes, it seems to be bugged. We've had no word from the Devs as of yet but I'm sure they're aware. Just have to be patient. There's a couple of threads on the matter floating around the boards already so, poke them for any news.

I wish I could help. It only happened that one time. All I can surmise was that my 2 remaining squad members were already dead and perhaps it was just their phantom ghosts that were allowed to run around...until killed again. Doubtful, but I'm just glad it hasn't happened again. Having said that, I have not used Meditron / Wraith / Oreon together since. I now run with Viper / Wraith / Tork, and have not experienced that problem.

I also have a rare graphic glitch where a lieutenant or big boss goes all blurry / fuzzy, even after I kill him. I haven't tried the latest ATI graphic drivers, but perhaps that's worth a shot, or maybe disable a crossfire card. It's a minor annoyance but not a game breaker.

EXTREMELY fuzzy?

It's a condition applied if you DoT Darkspore with a certain affix...I can't remember the details though.

The 'fuzzy' effect is the "Shifted" elite/boss affix. Granting reduced damage from Area of Effect abilities. Some quantum enemies automatically have this effect without the elite affix.

If you are certain that this is not what it is, then perhaps trying the latest drivers would be a good idea.
