CONSOLE PLAYERS - Do not buy Auric Cells to support BHVR
so when it finally does don’t buy a single Auric cell, grind for your cosmetics, but the Chapter sure but ignore the new store completely, if the store bombs over this farce (which it likely will as us console players can be petty af) they’ll make sure to never screw up like this again. If we let them shaft us, then reward them, they’ll just do it again. So don’t buy Auric Cells!

You're aware that the delay is due to microsoft/sony and not BHVR right ?
At this point it's just jealousy and it smells pretty bad.
Sorry for your loss, I guess ?20 -

They already stated once that the delay on the update isn’t on them but is on BHVR?
BHVR could be doing a hell of a lot more and be giving us a hell of a lot more information on the process if they even cared, but they’re not.
Christ, apologists like you are the worst. Gtfo my post when I know the truth of this matter as does every other console player who’s seen much larger patches get pushed through in less than a week.7 -

Its just not realistic!

Due to the very large size of the update. Both Sony and Microsoft required more time to release the update. This falls on those companies, since the code work for the consoles was done on time and submitted to the proper channels.
Here's a bit of knowledge you should know, consoles are crap, buy a PC and stop complaining.

In the last twitch dev stream, they explained that due to how much this update affects the game and how big it is the process is going to sadly take longer. They also explained how future updates won't take this long as they have ways to push them through. It's only due to how big this patch is and how much it affects the game that it's having to go through the long process. If you're so fecking read up on it, you'd know this.

That same-day verification is only open to businesses Sony and Microsoft have known and worked together for some time already, BHVR doesn't yet belong to that category.

So the fact they're even delaying the anniversary event and double bp for console is pure coincidence and not consideration, right ?

It's not on MS or Sony. This is the BS BHVR spouts every time they take their sweet time releasing something on consoles. No other company seems to have to jump through the BHVR hoops that are set up against them. None. Not one.What does BHVR gain from releasing the console versions later then PC? You seem to think they do this on purpose just to spite console users. That makes zero business sense. But when it comes down to it, PC users paid their money to the devs which allowed the console version to even be made. So if consoles have to wait more time, so be it.

I still have my $40 PSN Card to buy them as soon as the patch gets released. You do realise BHVR is waiting for the green light from Sony/Microsoft right? PSN has a calender for upcoming DLC's so i'm keeping an eye on that for the time being.

WHY are people ignoring the fact it isn’t Sony or Microsoft who are to blame? They offer same day verification, they offer updates on how your certification is going down to a tee?Where did you see same day verification? At the least I've heard a 5 day verification process, hot fixes are different as they are less code and normally have 1 focus.
"Console players can be petty af" - idk where you got this from but your post seems to want to continue this train of thought.
As soon as the update comes to console I'm gonna be like - https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=o0ZpesMYF6A
and I'll just spend 2x to cancel you out for being so "petty"

@outland Did I ever say they do it to spite the consoles? No, I did not. That's just you making crap up to make yourself feel better. Consoles are pushed to secondary status because they don't have the staff to work on PC patches at the same time as console patches. They do the PC patch first and then do the console patch. That's why this takes so much longer. They just refuse to admit to it, that's all.They have an entirely different crew of developers who work on PS and XBOX versions, no staff from the PC version is taken to work on the consoles. The only people who would work on all platforms at once would be the art and sound people since the work can be used across all platforms.
The company has been expanding to allow consoles to have their game. You my friend have no proof to your claims other then you think the BVHR loves to lie to console users. So no they don't make the pc version first and then move on to the consoles.
And before this very large patch they were on track to have the updates all coming out at the same time. Which means they actually held back the PC version until the Sony and XBOX store were ready to release the patch.
So you can see I'm not making crap up, I actually have quite a bit of knowledge, where as you on the other hand..... have your suspicions.

Certification is a multi-step process that includes different teams, marketing, product, programming.
2.0.0 is a big update with a new Store (money transactions) and a lot of new content, which means there will be a closer inspection of the update... this is one of the reasons it takes time.
Here are the patch notes on PC if you want more information on the amount of content that will be integrated in 2.0.0

So does that mean the patch has to go through for PCI Compliance and or it creates a tokenizer when something is purchased as to not store credit card information?

@outland And nothing to substantiate this "knowledge". Guess all you have are assumptions too.Either way, I've had my say on this thread and I'm done with it. You either believe BHVR and their console lies or you don't. It's that simple.
All my facts are from the Dev Streams, but if you think they do nothing but lie, I guess I have no facts either. Everything I've said above can be found in the streams, you can feel free to watch a few.

not buying anything with real money just shards these DEVS think were stupid lmao theres more to the story then they are saying and its 2018 it dont take this long, and another thing how long they been in business???? and they still dont know how the process works #########, at this point its comical

If you are unhappy with the time it takes for consoles, then its on you for buying one. Get a PC and enjoy quicker releases.
Ultimately this problem is because you bought a console instead of a computer.

You can't tell someone its their fault for buying a ps4 or xbox and not pc lol you just can't thats as bad as everyone else saying all this other stuff..I wont lie it sucks waiting, and then just hearing their working on it and then everyone else saying ask Sony ask MC when really if they do they dont tell them anything, because they don't work for BHVR lol..I mean Im sure that they could ask how its going..but its whatever..Now secondly I have a pc..and It needs updated..So unless people wanna play on cheap ass laptops (which the game wouldn't run very good on) then who are you to tell someone that they bought the wrong thing? I have a gaming computer..it costed me almost 2,000 dollars..Bought it years ago..But truth of the matter I'd still rather play the game on ps4..Just because you may or may not be a PC player doesn't mean that anyone ever bought the wrong thing..Yes it does it tiring hearing about people ######### and complain about the update..but thats all it is, is bitching..and you're feeding into lol..So either just read it and move on..or feed into and deal with the bitching more..at this point..you're the one who chose to be here LOL

In my earlier posts I explained why this update is taking so long for the consoles. But people would rather believe that is it a plot by BHVR to upset console players. And after a lengthy back and forth of people dismissing all the reasons for the delay. You just get tired of it, and are forced to take it back to the lowest common denominator.
Which in this case is, console users are unhappy that PC version is out and they are forced to wait. If you follow the logic backwards ultimately it comes to the point in someones timeline where they decided that a console is a better choice over the PC. So that is where the logic comes in for the argument that they made the incorrect choice. If it comes down to money (as in PC costs more then console) then you are forced to just accept that the console route is what you could afford and are forced to accept the timelines that come along with it.

No one is saying they’re plotting to annoy console players or purposely not giving us the update people are just saying they’re not being entirely honest with us which is bad if they came clean and said it failed or we only sent it in on the day the update came out for pc that be fine I would be happy and so would most people but all they’re saying is “it’s going through cert soz” which is annoying and not new info they can ask Sony/MC how it’s coming along but they aren’t.
Where is the proof they are not being honest? This is the point I have issue with.
2 -
That’s my plan. Like I said in the other console thread, I was going to buy a $50 or $100 card as buy the new chapter and then blow the rest on cosmetics just to support the dev because ever since I bought the game last year I’ve played almost nothing else. Over 1,000 hours in that time, I even double dipped and got the PC version too, even though I prefer Xbox.
But now I’ll just buy the DLC for the new perks and not spend a penny on cosmetics. Can’t support these types of shenanigans.
By the way, all this nonsense about size and adding stores and what not is irrelevant. We’ve had plenty of other games launch patches to know it’s not accurate. The Division has had multiple gargantuan patches plus added paid expansions and a microtransaction cosmetics store and it didn’t take “weeks” for certification. The longest duration I saw was 10 days, which is the max.
How have they not figured out how to time it better? Maybe send the console patch for certification earlier? Have they failed certification, or needed to restart for some reason? Who knows. “Certification is a multi step process” that’s great, so how many steps are there and what step are we on? lol

1) Why would Sony or MS admit its their fault?
2) BHVR have been told the reason for the delay, are they supposed to keep bugging them because forums "NEED TO KNOW!"
3) New certification is required because a new money system is being added to the game and when it comes to money things need to be setup correctly. And double checked.
4) BHVR have answered this question on many forum posts. You guys just don't like the answer so the must be dodging the TRUE answer.If BHVR jumped to action and did everything the forums wanted, nothing would ever get done there. They'd just be that annoying kid in the back seat asking "ARE WE THERE YET!?"

I'm super pissed about having to wait too, but there's a lot of new content coming. I really like the clown and I want to see more. To me, buying DLC is a little way to make sure the good stuff keeps coming. Pour money in the pot and good stuff comes out, yes?
I know the waiting sucks and PC players get stuff weeks before us, and PC players laughing at us about it only makes it worse, but there's nothing we can do about it. If it helps, just play another game until the patch drops. Tune out the forums and tune out the game for a bit.

I'm pretty sure console players paid for the game as well, so they don't have PC users to "thank" for granting them the privilege to have it. Also, there is no "wrong platform" as each has its own benefits. Large patches in any game have always required a longer certification process through consoles because of extra issues involved (not just hardware).

Furthermore, not everyone can buy a good pc at thousands of dollars just for play the patchs before the console.

I plan on buying $50 in auric cells day one. I am an xbox player and I knew this wasnt going to drop day one for us. This shouldnt be a surprise! We know certification is a process. They also said “coming weeks” on the day of release. They have been consistent with this. Its been 1 week. 1 is less than “weeks.” Jesus wept this is frustrating3

Got news for you, I owned the PC version at release, and I purchased a second copy for XBOX when it came available. So I play on both. But If I'm a PC elitist its because HANDS DOWN a PC is more useful then a console. Everything a console can do, a proper gaming PC does better and allows you to do so much more.
