Some answers from the live stream (cold fire gun, orange charge blades, nerfed drops)

[Arsenic_Touch]

I asked on the live stream, they gave an answer to a few of my questions.

Question: What is going on with the cold fire plasma assault rifle we saw during the E3 demo?

Answer: The reason it was left out of DLC 1 was because it looked cool but it didn't have any unique mechanics to it. However they said they will be adding it with the DLC 2 (which we do not know when that will be happening)

Question: What is going on with the volge LMG drops?
Answer: They claimed they're in game, just really rare. We still haven't seen any evidence of this.

Question: Why were volge emergency drops nerfed?
Answer: They weren't supposed to be and they have people going through trying to find out what's wrong, evidently some one got a legendary drop off a volge elite and that's not supposed to happen. So I have a feeling that the non existent volge lmgs will fall under this bug.

Question: What about those that purchased the orange charge blade for 500k scrip?
Answer: They are doing something to make it fair for players affected.
(Update: They're refunding the difference according to the sticky)

These are the only ones I paid attention to because I'm playing Elder Scrolls Online.

Some other things we learned.

Pumped shotgun glitch will be fixed.
The device to call down arkfalls is part of a quest line.

Double post?

I added a few other things to the other post but will add it here since this one will probably last a bit longer

They also said something about some form of payback to the people who purchased the orange sword at the high cost but didn't specify as to what

They also said they are looking into the weapon rolls and stuff that will be affected by the upcoming grenade change

Lol, didn't even realize it double posted. Sorry about that.

This is going to be exactly like the "orange world drops" that were insisted upon by a former community manager. If there's no proof from anyone, then it doesn't exist. In a week's time, one should have dropped somewhere by now. I'm calling this as incorrect information again, Volge LMGs beyond the quest-given green do not exist as drops.

I'm very disappointed I did not get to watch the stream, since I got my information from this tweet. Apparently they started an hour earlier than what was announced there. Depressing, as I was hoping to get at least one PvP-related question answered.

Hope they are quicker off the ball then they were for the fiasco Notturno is alluding to...

Sorry about that - I wrote the tweet and messed it up.

Highlighting is borked on Twitch but when it's up, we'll make the highlight and post here.

Also: if we have incorrect info, we'll correct it. Neither Trick nor I are going to lie to you because we don't want to say "yeah, you are right, we are wrong." That's silly.

If you'd like to watch a replay of the livestream in which Trick answers a ton of questions, you can do so here:

Skip to 1:15:00, which is when Trick gets on for the Defiance segment.

Look at you one-upping me. :P

I highly recommend this. Paraphrasing can be the pits - but transcribing takes forever!

Any info on Chat system???

Any info on Chat system???

I vaguely remember something about the chat but I was also having to text some family members because of a family emergency (wife's side) so I have to relisten to the entire stream to get all the info. I also heard something about reimbursing those that bought the sword at a higher price (but didn't hear what or exactly when) but I think they said something about during a reset
