[RESOLVED] June 25th Skin code not working (PS4)

Spamming it is definitely not working on ps4. Tried for a solid 30 minutes

#26

Expired Code Simulator 3000 is not the game I want play.

On PS4 code expired. Spamming the code gets nothing.

Edit: Fixed, worked first try.

#27

The issue is mainly that there are so many other issue floating around with this game right now and most of them are taking an immense amount of time with little word more than ā€œWe know itā€™s an issue, but youā€™ll just have to deal with itā€. I appreciate their effort, but telling us to ā€œ[continue] Spamming the buttonā€¦ā€ and such is just plain insulting.

Agreed. I just wanted to redeem the code quickly since I need to work on my bachelor thesisā€¦ I canā€™t spam the submit button for 12 hours.
Plus I canā€™t even just try in a week, since itā€™s gonna expire tomorrow, soā€¦
They either extend the expiration date until the Shift Bug is fixed or they just take a harder look at the issue on PS4.

Thatā€™s not the solution, no, just the work around. As I said above, weā€™re aware of the problem and we have a more permanent fix coming soon.

In the short term, weā€™re currently investigating to see if there is a particular issue with the PS4 code. Iā€™ll keep you guys posted.

And we would appreciate & accept that as a work around IF it actually worked.

Iā€™ve yet to see a single confirmed report of it working on the PS4 here, on Facebook or Twitter or on any fan sites.

There is clearly an issue of some description affecting the PS4 & some Xbox One users.

Thanks guys (and gals). :thumbsup:

Thanks for taking a look at the problem on the PS4.
Spamming usually worked for me, but this time it just wonā€™t, and since so many (maybe all. I didnā€™t see a single PS4 user say it worked) other PS4 players seem to have the same issue, it just feels like there is some PS4 specific bug :sweat:

Just took me 30+ tries on PC.

Interestingly, the error message bounced between being expired and redemption failed message.

#35

Hey guys,

Iā€™m being told the code should now be working on all platforms. Weā€™ll be extending the code through Monday to ensure everyone has a chance to redeem it.

I just got it to work on PS4 finally. Not sure what happened, but it went through. Was it something you did on your end @JoeKGBX or was I just lucky?

#37

Love you guys! :heart:

Why are they giving away codes if the system is broken? Everyone who plays this weekend should get the skins unlocked without the code then.

Thanks guys/gals/others!
Will try to redeem it right away. :smiley:

Well it worked on the 3rd try this time on PS4. Sounds like they need better QA testing. Where do I send my resume?

I appreciate the reply and the time youā€™re putting in to investigate the issue with PS4. That said the ā€œwork aroundā€ is more of a run around because it does not work. In all honesty if this was a code that had to be redeemed in the PlayStation store I would be more forgiving. This is a shift code, as far as I know SHIFT is Gearboxā€™s baby, as Iā€™ve only seen it in gearbox games. When Gearbox is unable to get their Shift codes to work in their games, it leaves me wondering what are they doing over there? On top of that you revealed it was known that there might be some issues redeeming the code. If it was known why do something that would expose it to the player base prior to fixing the issue?
