Lack of on-screen notifications?

amanfr01 · July 2014

Hey everybody.

I haven't tried playing with this new 1.2.4 patch yet, but I was wondering if they fixed the bug where on-screen notifications wouldn't pop up occasionally. For example, gaining achievements or discovering a new location. Edit: To further explain: They would show up for a time, but then I'd have to reloadui to regain notifications. More examples would be completing/starting a new quest, or weapon/class skills leveling up.Maybe I'm the only one to whom this was happening, I'm not sure.

Any thoughts or knowledge?

They are saying its caused by addons.

amanfr01 · July 2014

Hmm. Strange. I have only one addon (skyshards) and it's up to date.

I wonder if this is related to the same issue that is causing XP not to being shown as updated.

I have not used 1 add on yet since pre-release, and I am not getting notifications. If people are saying that it is because of add-ons, they are either uninformed or lying, both of which should be unacceptable.

Also correct me if I am wrong, but we are not getting "new content". It was my understanding that the content being released, is content that was supposed to be incorporated when the game went live, but was riddle with bugs or not working correctly so it was shelved temporarily.

Combat queues (the red areas on the ground when a creature is getting ready to do a high damage move) have not been showing up for me since 1.2.4

No notifications still, extremely annoying. And this is not caused by add-ons.

Lol caused by add-ons? I don't use any add-ons, never have, and I have this issue as well.

I reported it, but it;s indeed a bug.
I use some add-ons but it has always worked... would be interesting that it now woudnt work. it does give the sound but no notification at all, meaning I have to check if I completed dungeon's etc extra... please fix it.

Exactly. This is probably the most frustrating part. There's also something rather satisfying to see things pop up like that, such as leveling up or completing a quest.

Please fix, indeed.

Hi everyone,

Just wanted to confirm that it's a Known issue. You will find it listed under "UI" in the Patch v1.2.3 Known Issues. We are still investigating. Keep an eye on the known issue list as we update this thread whenever we have more information to share, whether we found a fix or are currently testing it.

Thanks Eve.

This issue was fixed for me after yesterdays "hotfix". My notifications ran all night long when previously they would quit after 20-30 minutes.

Me too. But the friends that I was playing, no.

Seems to be fixed now...unlike the FPS issue.

Anyway, at least I have my notifications back:)

danno8 · July 2014

Just wanted to chime in and say it is fixed for me to since 1.2.4. Although the issue still has "investigating" status in the known issues thread.

Although this seems to have been fixed, it's worth mentioning that the LOREBOOK DISCOVERED notification still does not display upon finding one. Unless this is just what happens once you've already maxed the Mages' Guild Line, in which case nvm. :P
