One Messed Up Invasion

[Captain Del]

I, along with a few POFers, was just at an invasion on the Barano. We got everything nice and organized, and soon, the UInvasion was under way. Everything ran smooth for the first few waves, aside from us all getting knocked out by the new Powder Keg Runner. But then we get to wave 5. We manage to kill of all of the crowd, and as usual, only 2 enemies are left. So, we kill them... but then 2 more spawned. So, we killed them..... And 2 more spawned. The small amounts of enemies would not stop. This went on for about 10 minutes or so, until we got this:



Appearently, we lost the invasion... But theres problems with this:

1. The enemies never got the the Bride.
2. Notice how the game still recognizes that the barricades near the town were still standing.

So, the enemies wouldn't stop, and we get a signal that we lost... Hmm, I don't know, I just keep seeming to get eccentric glitches involved with me. I'm guessing this has something to do with the addition of the new Powder Keg Runners. Has this happened to anybody else?

Im sure this has to do with the new enemy. On test we experienced a tortuga invasion that lasted 2 hours once. Didnt ever think it would be over.

Here is that new Powder Keg Runner that may have had something do do with the glitch:

I logged on and the invasion hasn't even started (desereau server) but the bar is destroyed with no barriers destroyed...people have told me its the same on all servers.

Hmm, this be one messed up day for invasions. Just headed to Cortos, and the barricades are still up! Appearently an invasion was supposed to come, but it never came, and the barricades remained. Here be a screen:



All the other barricades were up as well. Disney definately made a little oopsie on the carpet today with invasions.

Aye, it happened on all the servers from what I have seen. But the bright side seemed to be that everyone received rep from a win & not a loss. So, it was worth the effort IMHO...

[JM Ohara]

I'm standing here on Jamilies an nothing is happening but it has the invasion notice up, and the barricades.

[Tom Sharkwash]

What level are those new enemies?

[combatlizzy]

After our invasion, I tp'ed around server hopping. Many of the servers were in the same predicament, Hawke. I wasn't sure whether to stay & wait or not. I just think they were glitched. But, I am no expert, it's just what I deciphered from the happenings that I had seen. Maybe the servers need reset...idk

[Captain Whale]

Thanks for the heads up mates. I am curious if these were supposed to be introduced in the PDF invasions and got moved by mistake. Have they been seen on TEST?

Bummer the invasion was all messed up.

This just in!

Disney just sent us a little message saying that they know about the problem, and are working to resolve it. Here it be:



For those who can't read it, it says:

Jolly Roger's forces have retreated for now!
We are not sure what this devil is up to, but
we appreciate your patience as we try to
resolve this problem.

Glad to see they are taking steps to fix this all

I personally think the powder keg runners are the source of all this (or they come from the same source). They most likely are for either the Padres invasions or the second chapter (I think it's the first option). You can tell because they were not on test.
I'm glad Disney is taaking care of the glitched invasions.
