Let me state first I have 1475 hours of game play logged on account and I have ran through multiply throughs. These issues are not being addressed below and I have opened support tickets and they are just bypassing some of these issues. I'm beginning to get frustrated with support.
Connect Rewards
Altair and Jackdraw rewards show as available to get even though items are already rewarded to player. I receive them every new game start, but they don't show as acquired on Connect Rewards. This is a simple database query to fix this issue that doesn't require a game update. I don't understand how this problem isn't fixed already. I have all Jackdraw items and the Altair outfit, so they should be flagged as acquired in Connect rewards.
Festival Rewards
On new game start player loses time limited reward they have gained. I no longer have access to Ostra rewards, and now that I'm having issues detailed below, if I start a new game I will loose Sigrbolt rewards. These items need to be part of owned items on Connect for sync period. Why even bother playing festivals if you are going to loose these wonderfully done tattoos and cosmetics if you decide to play a new game for a different experience.
Cadfarch Duplication
I have open ticket on this. This happened on recent playthrough to find out why I didn't receive Arc of Elan when Sigrbolt festival began and I turned in quest to Randvi. I picked up bow, but never showed in inventory, so I spent 20 to 30 hours running through a new game on easiest possible settings while Sigrbolt fedtival was still active to see if it happened again. It did not but discovered duplication error with Cadfarch when having Raven Loot and light fingers (or quick fingers, whatever ability to autoloot when you run by). So now that Sigrbolt festival is over, and I been rewarded the festival rewards twice now, I am going to loose these rewards on a new game.
Lost Beserker and Grendel Quests
When Sigrbolt festival ended, I lost the Beserker and Grendel quests. They were wiped from quest log, map markers disappeared. I cannot access these quests anymore, yet when running treasures of Britain mysteries, the East Anglia mystery had the key marker for Grendel's mother's door as well as the documents detailing his mother. This means a new game start if I want Bjorn (which who doesn't, this is a fabulous story and heart renching). Starting a new game means losing all festival rewards as well as mastery challenges.
Mastery Challenges
I have 100‰ these. It took a very long time because of defenders killing themselves by falling thereby preventing gold. Now I have to run through them all again to get these items, which 3 of them are some of the best items in the entire game. Why cannot these be item synced? Frustrating rawr!
Fabric
I see this is detailed, but I don't understand how this happened between title update 1.2 and 1.3. Was the fix reverted? I'm stuck with rations at 5, quiver fully upgraded, and 13 fabric in inventory. I completed Lincolnshire, Essexe, Suthsexe, Vineland, Jorvik story arcs and looted chests as available during main quests and not a single piece of fabric, as well as the chests that are available running treasures of Britain mysteries.
I have popped the game disc out. I have played everyday since I received the game. I like starting new games and try a different combat experience. I was playing on hardest difficulty and with title update 1.3, increasing level of enemies. I love challenges and experiencing all the wonderful combat mechanics in game which are multitude, but it now is disheartening to redo or loose these extremely hard to achieve items.
