    North point siege still hanging at stage 5 after the 1.04 patch

    I'm not one to bash the programmers or Trion, but this was ridiculous. Today I jump into a siege at North Point and as soon as we killed all the volge the siege just hung once again at the end of stage 5, and not completing. I think the programmer(s) who told or moderators that the issue was fixed in the patch failed not only the player, but the people they left hanging out on the limb for saying that it was fixed. You can't have credibility if you announce what your are told, and the people who's job to fix it are not in fact fixing it, or missing something. If you can't fix that siege how about removing that particular siege from the game (if possible) until you can in fact find a programmer who can in fact find the conflicting code in that particular siege script, and fix that error properly.

    I logged in the day the patch went live and saw the same issue. The North Point siege just "hung" at stage 5. The progress bar was filled up but nothing was happening. I just left the siege and went on to another one.

    Hey Knightmage & neko_gunner, thanks for the heads up.
    I'll poke around again, I couldn't reproduce the issue here with the debug tools running. I put in a suspected fix for the patch, but end result for you guys is that it's still broken. Any hints to what else is happening when this stalls at stage 5?

    I see that neko_gunner mentioned his progress bar was filled, is everyone seeing this stall at stage 5 with a full progress bar?
    Anyone seeing this outside of North Point or on other stages?

    Feel free to pm me if you have any other info on the Volge Siege at North Point.

    Ya, me and another guy posted in the Xbox bugs section in the forums.
    same thing for me, full status bar. BUT I did notice that one if the turrets at point "A" was clutching, and others in my party also saw it.

    What do you mean by "clutching"? I'll keep an eye on the turrets next time and definitely post back if I see it.

    It's only happened once for me at stage 5 since the patch and once before. I've done north point maybe twice since the patch. The first time it stalled, the second time it completed okay. I haven't been back since and don't really plan to unless I'm searching for potential bugs which I may do at some point as I've only recently completed the pursuit for doing all the sieges.

    For each of the times I've encountered it we had just finished killing the last of the Volge for that stage, the progress bar moves to showing full with the timer still counting down. Other than that there doesn't seem to be any clue or outward indication that it is going to glitch prior to the hang that I have seen. While I have noticed one of the turrets doing a weird breakdancing graphics thing (blinking between one extent of traverse to the other), I paid it no mind as I have seen this behavior in other Sieges at all the siege points with no adverse effect to the siege completion. Other than that it's just a normal siege event.

    P.S. I made the point of asking others this last time of what they were seeing and all players in that siege reported the same as what I mentioned above regarding the status bar & timer, and not noticing anything strange prior to the hang.

    Confirmed. Tried it a bunch of times since it was "fixed". Might want to test your hotfixes before you deploy them in future.
