Thanks for the response. I'm at work right now but I will make a direct recording of it later and tag you on it. I haven't tried a fresh install but I can certainly give it a shot as well.

Hey there, following up on this. Did you have any luck with starting a new game or an uninstall/reinstall?

If not, next best thing is if you could record and send that on for us to have a listen; it might help us determine the sounds and timing to further inspect and solve the issue.

Can the devs please fix the metal clanging sound on Xbox! Every 10-30 seconds I get a sound effect that sounds like my ship crashing into a solid object. This bug has been around since before the last major update. This sound occurs everywhere in the game even in menus.

Hey there, I backtracked in our bug reports to find any similar issues and the one other instance this was reported was from you, 8 months ago, that we could not reproduce in any way on Xbox series X (or S). This is a very strange isolated report.

We want to help, though we need more details to figure out what's happening.

  1. Is the issue present if you start a new game?
  2. Have you tried uninstalling and reinstalling?
  3. Are there any details of your setup that might help us determine what could be causing the issue?

Thanks for any additional information you can provide, here's hoping we can get to the bottom of this.

I know it's not easy to find the cause and also deploy a fix in the process, but I was wondering if you have any updates on the issues. I don't mind playing without Lumen, but unfortunately I cannot play at all since I cannot see the cutscenes and I am really interested in the story.

Thanks in advance.

Hotfix just dropped to fix this!

Post

Hello pilots! Title really says it all; thanks for all your feedback and support.

Some highlights of what to expect:

  • Fixed items with missing item attributes
  • Fixed blank cutscenes from occurring
  • Added boss modifier description on rift portal before the boss
  • Some balance adjustments for convenience, like reducing the max teleport range for teleporting foes
  • Much more

We are aware of a couple other known issues that are still planned to get fixed; these are included at the bottom of the patch notes. A link to our website news will be available soon but for now, patch notes can be found at Steam:

Update 1.2.39726 - Post-Incursions Hotfix ...

does the gog version have this update? as of right now im installing the game again, and the newest version is older then what your new incursions update lists it as.

All lights are green for the update on GOG; this is the first time hearing about such an issue. I'm not as familiar with the GOG platform, but is there a way to verify the game files or ensure you're downloading the latest version?

I uploaded a video showing both issues and all the combination detailed above. Thinking it will help to reproduce.

How should I keep track of this issue? Is there a way to check the progress of the ticket or should we continue to discuss it here in this thread?

Thanks!

If you have the time, please record so we can get a better sense of what it looks like. This one is tricky!

There's not really a way to track this other than following this thread. Regardless, you've helped us have a greater understanding of what is happening here, so here's hoping we can find a way to stop the flickering!

I tried native and upscaling with both DLSS and UE5 TSR. If you want I can record and upload it somewhere to help look into it.

Thanks!

Hmmmm, this sounds like the root cause my go a bit deeper on the side of Game Pass via PC, because it should be operating the same as Steam. I'll open a ticket and see if we can find a solution. Thanks for the report.

Otherwise, we did find the black screen issue for Game Pass users. It's a bit of an outlier that only affects users with specific specs, but we will fix this!

Hi! Thanks for the update. The game is finally updated, however I have 2 main issues that I did not have before:

  1. When activating Lumen, the cockpit is flickering like crazy and I was only playing from the cockpit.

  2. All cutscenes are displaying only audio with black screen. Nothing worked. Tried tempering with resolution, full screen mode on and off, tweaking settings, nothing. I did not have this problem so far. Not even replaying the cutscenes from "Story so far" doesn't work.

Are you guys aware of these issues, are they related to Gamepass only? I would like to know your input on this since I am thinking to buy the game on Steam.

Specs: Ryzen 7 7800XD3, 32 GB RAM 6400, RTX 3070, HQUW Monitor 3440x1440 resolution.

Thanks!

Are you upscaling via DLSS? If not, are you upscaling using something else? It's possible that your specs might cause it to flicker. If you can figure out which upscaling is causing the flicker - or perhaps even if you're not upscaling at all - we can start looking into a solution for this.

This might also be a possible cause with the black screen as well.

If you can quickly test what happens when you change your upscaler to see if there are any differing results, that could help us help you. Thanks for the report, hoping to get this fixed with a little more information.

Unfortunately latency reduction via DLSS isn't compatible with WinGDK, and it's unlikely we'll be able to get that working anytime soon. Sorry!

Yes.. Please. They said maybe a day. I'm hoping by this weekend. I was so stoked for Monday.

I misread and thought the game pass free version was busted, so my dumb ass bought the game in the store thinking well maybe it's a different version.

Not yet, still hoping we'll have news sooner than later.
