Blackwater glitch worries me

Exactly. What's the point. There is nothing out now that is MUST have. You grind enough, you will get want you want or need. 

And I think that's part of the problem with the current online model, the game doesn't know what it want's to be.  It's not a traditional RPG because character progression isn't tied to stats or gear--the biggest tie is the ability cards, which you can buy and are level banded.

It's not a "looter-shooter" because there's no emphasis on loot--no collectibles that are found or earned--everything can be purchased once a certain level  has been reached, so there's no incentive to re-run certain content over and over again to gain anything other than XP.

The openness of the current iteration just amplifies how truly empty the experience is after awhile.  Most of the stranger missions are variations of standard tropes for the game and series, so there's not much other than small wrinkles and reskins to alter what we've already done (multiple times).  I keep wanting to get further into the game, but they're coasting on the "beta" tag, imo.  R* needs to set a firm date for launch and start providing more information to the players.  These sporadic updates which fail to address basic, persistent issues are slowly whittling down the player base.

So is this still going on? I am afraid to ask. I haven't been on since over the weekend and I spotted people doing it on a server and just left and went to another one.

I tried to do it Tuesday night after watching outlawclickbait videos on utube. I went into the tailor, came out, and found a dude took my cougar and skinned it while I was inside. His posse member then shoots me in the head.

I guess it was a sign from the R* gods.

Hearing from multiple people that the money they earned from this glitch is now gone, but items they purchased remained. Only money earned on duped cougars was as taken, other money remained.

Well I am glad this was sorted. They probably would have had too hard of a time taking back the items so that is understandable.
