I honestly love that there is a system to rank users based on their successes and experience. What I don’t like is that it’s an external addon that Blizzard does not own.
Why?
Because the Raider. IO is having a huge issues right now which reset some character’s data. Because of this, I literally can’t play the game. Nobody will invite me to groups because my data is blank.
Or flock to the forums and complain like every other reasonable person. Sheesh get with the times.
If anything this issue could probably be solved with re-sync’ing bnet account with rio and waiting until tomorrow for the in game addon to update. The website updates every few minutes though so if someone ACTUALLY looks it would probably be fixed almost instantly.
Incorrect. Raider.io is fine. Blizzard’s API is not. Any service that uses Blizzard’s API will not be able to pull data because of this issue on Blizzard’s side. Raider.io is also currently testing a workaround to the API issue that they plan to implement if Blizzard does not get it resolved soon.
Blizzard is aware of the problem and they are actively working on fixing it.
Basically, yeah. Pretty much every service is being impacted because of it… Raidbots, Wowaudit, the Jeeves bot, etc. Anything that tries to access the character profile API.
Yeah, other parts of the game are very much playable. But not the main piece I actually want to play.
Redirect them to armory… yeah… in the competitive landscape we’re in nobody will do that, especially when there’s 6 other dps in the queue with scores.
It’s a bnet issue – sure. Either way. A stupid addon number has inhibited me from playing the game. That’s lame.
add on’s provides no skill. I seen a blizz champ beat a 2200 rated team without using his UI. It was hilarious. It’s on youtube. I won’t link it because it’s against TOS.
How exactly does an addon or a third party site feature prevent you from logging in and playing the game? Now if you said it is preventing you from enjoying doing Mythic + the way you want to, then that would make more sense, but if you can psychically login to your characters and move around and do all the content without these, then you can’t come in and say that you can not play the game.
Every elitist above like +6 only accept DPS with the addon and a good score. The API just broke for my character, and now I don’t have a score, and nobody will invite me.
