    Sandworm zone glitch still not fixed?

    Forgive the new thread. I could have sworn I'd seen one a few days ago relating to the black screen glitch and would have posted in there, but I can't seem to find it.

    Anyway, I recall reading in this thread that nobody has the black screen glitch happen recently, some speculations were to it being fixed in the update we've just had. This hasn't happened to my shell in a while either, so overall there was a positive feeling. We'd been dicked over quite a few times on that glitch and have lost 2 Lambton Worm fights because of it i.e. 1 tank in, 1 tank out.

    This happens today:

    5 of us in 1 instance with a Serket, 7 in the other with another Serket. I've only seen this occur twice(?), and that was a long time ago on the advanced boards I think. This happened with a group at King Arthro and with another at Lambton.
    Luckily the group of 7 managed to kill their Serket with 2 plds, 2 blms, whm, 2 dds i think, and got a harness. Obviously by looking at the picture above, you can see we didn't stand a chance.

    Called a GM as soon as we'd realised what had happened. I was expecting the same old scripted response and that's what i got basically. Nice to know that they still don't give a shit about these glitches.

    Just annoyed that this has still not been fixed, and people will continue to be screwed over by SE's mistakes yet again.

    This has happened before, people have discussed it in another thread. You got Doomvoided, so nothing wrong there, whatever happens after that is not SE's problem. Try reinstalling the game to see if you still don't get swallowed in, other than that I don't know what else to suggest D:

    Iirc, some of us were getting different warping animations on the doomvoid. For example, Jem (pictured) said he had a D2 animation, whereas I got an animation that I'd never seen before. Was sort of a blue-ish circle rising upwards. And no, it didn't look like the sky pad animations or the ones in nyzul =/.

    Don't think reinstalling would do anything to be honest.

    Can't hurt to try a reinstall, I guess you can do it over night.

    Had a few linkshell members that have been locked out 3-4 times in the past, and others twice. The people locked out more frequently back then don't have this issue anymore. This hasn't happened recently for us though :\

    I feel kinda bad for GMs having to deal with grumpy players on a daily basis, but I do wish they'd grant GMs a little more power so that if this happens, they can at the very least shift some ppl over.
