Well I'm slow......
Was wondering how I'd know if I did enough to get the popcorn machine.
Today I stumbled across the challenge.
It showed I did it!!!
I was soo happy, I went to the wayard & got a couple of low weapons.
I'm maxing em out now.
Tomorrow I will try to spot newbie's at 76.
Give them a welcome aboard maity package.

I have seen at least 3 today in players camps. They are able to be built, but as Mooman says, it seems it depends on when you unlocked it.

Yes it does need power and it is connected on the top.

Well I'm not sure when I completed it.

But It's not in my resources or appliances.
You know if I don't start including rice cakes and popcorn in my diet.
My overweight problem will come back!
It won't be MY fault!

Yea I unlocked it on the first day you could unlock it so guess we're playing the waiting game. And... what kind of hotfix is this that only allows it for people that unlock it afterwards? I mean... really? I'm just thinking they don't have any testers at Bethesda at all.

I think the bug may be elsewhere. In the first week, it was necessary for someone to eat 5 candies from us. In the second, only 1 a day. What if this is a mistake and you still have to eat 5 candies a day? The game completes the quest for one candy eaten, but since five are still needed, some script inside the game sees that the quest is not complete.

If that's the case honestly someone needs to be fired.

I think it's more of a scripting issue with how quest rewards work. The reward can only be awarded when the event is completed.

I'm not sure if there is any historical evidence of BGS Austin retroactively awarding missing quest items/rewards based on challenge status. I know with some of the find location X atom rewards they had to manually award that based on support requests.

I think maybe the Mountain Scout Uniform was retroactively awarded based on login dates but that was more of a batch addition that didn't have a challenge. I'm really curious how long the fix will take though and if it is another Mountain Scout Balaclava situation.

Popcorn machine isn't currently working, They said in a news release on their discord they are looking into a fix. so maybe Tuesday or next Tuesday (Guessing).

#1, that's not the issue. The trigger activated the complete flag on the event table so that entry is complete. it could be 100 possible things, leave it to the programmers and not the popcorn gallery (see what I did there? lol).

#2, saying someone should be fired over a programming error is heartless. It's a team effort, something went wrong, fix it, move on. They have mortgages and families, don't be jerks. You've all made mistakes at your jobs I bet. If not, then congratulations on being a brain surgeon.

Who said the management at work were angels. Make a mistake then they go "oi trying to make money here".

Throwing the heartless arguement at customers is futile.

At school we used to be taught "Do it right, do it once." and I really hope that same philosophy is learnt.

At this stage the backlog of workload due to faulty first iterations of everything in this game must be huge.

BGS need to slow down, get some experienced creation engine programmers on board or they will have to throw in the towel due to mounting pressures.

Brain surgeons don't make mistakes?

At any rate the original comment I made was on a specific mistake. A noob mistake. And only if that is the case. Can't accept mistakes like this period. People seem to be ok with devs just messing about. I've been a programmer myself so I know all to well that stuff you put out isn't going to be flawless all the time. But that's a world apart from accepting every single mistake. Of course people don't need to be fired, it was a joke. But honestly a doofus mistake merits a serious discussion.

I guess if it comes from Bethesda it's ok, because everything they put out is going to have bugs in it. We're used to it? Let's get rid of quality all together. It just works. Right?
