lmao, I'm sure it was a bit more complicated than that. They most likely had to modify the existing command to add a target player ID parameter
but yeah..
We had to create a new one, fwiw.

Sorry to hear about the unfortunate loss. Yesterday's rollback(s) is a case example why we try to avoid rollbacks as much as possible, the one yesterday did effect a large amount of players sadly. We are however working to avoid the impact of rollbacks though (as well as trying to avoid them in the first place). Can you provide a little context for me? Such as which server(s) so I can have a look and ensure the server was rolled back properly to begin with?
please make sure this same change doesn't roll out in the next ps4 update
usually ps4 gets every update at a delay, even when it is a known bad patch on pc.. ps4 still ends up getting it
once we literally got a patch that broke snow owls so they could give unlimited food on the same day that the same bug was fixed on pc
We released the version of the patch that didn't include the vault cleanup code on ps4 today, same time as xbox.
Didn't know about that. That's a really big improvement from before, nice.
Aye - came from applying the same approach - valor did the heavy lifting on that one. :)
Many thanks for responding.
The new command will definitely help out people that have lost accounts. Only other thing I can think of is way for players to reclaim their imprinted dinos again. Didn't happen to me this time, but know people have lost a lot of time investment recently. Feel for those that lost their imprinted Gigas and squids. That two week time investment is rough when you lose 50+ of those dinos in blink of an eye.
CS started restoring imprints a while back.
Thank you once again for showing us that you are listening. Ced on twitter and the WC devs on reddit have been very responsive since this incident, even if they previously only had bad news for us. As a community we do expect you to make mistakes, but owning up to them and coming up with new solutions to fix them is at the end of the day what really matters.
Thanks again WC for restoring our faith in you. The deletion and downtime it brings will sting, but knowing that ultimately if this should happen again, there is now a solution, makes it worth it.
Glad we were able to come up with a solution for this one!
Fair point.
The new team has tried to pay specific attention to how we can improve these situations - the changes to patching over the last year have come from this. It's why when we reversed the HOD ban, we committed ourselves internally to approaching meshing through a new way which you're starting to see the results of now. It's also why we've added the givetekengramsto admin command in today's patch.
The reality is that we're human, and we make mistakes like everyone else, but we're trying to learn from them and change our processes to help.
We included an admin command in today's patch to help cs help you with this. They're working out the logistics now, but if you lost a character from this rollback, they should be able to help you out.

These commands are for the player themselves and not for a targeted player just fyi so they don't ascend another player or give them engrams.
This will be fixed with the upcoming deployment (as well as other classic pvp servers affected)
u/wildcardpanda ^ still cannot transfer off the ragnarok map
This will be fixed with the upcoming deployment
i am on NA-Offlineraidprotection-Theisland-Crossark6 and my character data is still missing
If you uploaded between the patch and the rollback, it's likely that you lost your character. You'll need to file a ticket with support if that's the case.
Wait...so these players have to go through the imprint process again? f**king WC shining like this winter's dog shit in my back yard on this rainy Thursday.
That is exactly the opposite of what he said. We can restore imprints.
What commands can be used on Xbox to give imprints back as a recent update on our nitrado made a bunch of players lose characters. Nope, roll back didn't help.
what cluster are you on that's having issues? and what map(s)?
So I was told that they can restore engrams, however the power was being abused and they took that away from the GMs
That is not the case. We have never had an admin command to grant other players specific engrams. It is something I will look into. But having taken a stab at it before it isn't trivial.
Thanks for adding this!
NA-Offlineraidprotection-Theisland-Crossark6 dont forget about this server please.
NA-Offlineraidprotection-Theisland-Crossark6
Missed it in our first pass - fixing it up now.
it did when i joined my friend on his hosted, but im not sure about official as I just havent ever hopped on an official server on pc.
If it would help, i can have a look on now?
Worth checking - ya.
