This is by far one of the weirdest I've seen. I just bought an XS2 from White_Noise. I clicked on it, and it said you have purchased an Electronic Pulse-Gun. Both are showing in my inventory, and it definitely charged me for both. I was going to just sell the Pulse-Gun back, but I figured I should let someone know. It couldn't have been a double click, because there's way too much landscape between the two weapons.

Well that's just plain weird.

Any chance you could try again and see if you can replicate it?

I can in about 30 minutes. Weapon in question is in a mission. I'm starting to think it was a one off. I've bought other weapons since then, no problems. But I will try with that particular one.

It was isolated. I tried several times to get it to repeat, but it didn't. The Heavy Metal War ghosts are having a go at me.

Glad to hear it was isolated but I'll keep an eye out for it happening again in the future, cheers.

I noticed the levels on my team members that engaged in skirmishes earlier had been recorded differently in the missions.

Sorry I've sucked at keeping in touch on the HMW forums for the past year or 10, but I just encountered a bug I've never seen before:

I generate missions that appear empty on the join screen, but appear full of characters for my 'Cons to fight against and alongside, most of whom appear to be inactive when I check their team display. Are these the ghosts I vaguely remember hearing about in the days of yore before I joined Seibertron?

Here's hoping the 6 I sent in don't get erased, or break our neck of the internet!

"Extras" still in missions as of 7:45 AM EST. Weirdest part is, some of these after-images are in missions too low-level for them to join:

Weird. Mine is showing history but it's of all the missions I'm a ghost in.

I suspect there was some kind of error where the Mission numbers were reset but the logs weren't deleted so we're getting this strange effect.

Probably once you start showing up as a ghost (or just joining missions) your histories will start to repopulate with the new logs(but that's just a guess)

Well I'm here and posting which is more than can be said about Burn >:oP or any of the other ghosts for that matter :P
Considering Hallows & Poof are showing up in missions right now maybe it's better that some people remain just ghosts :lol:
