Anthem Dev Tracker

Hey - update on what happened here.

In our Friday changes, one of the edits we made had the side effect of increasing certain drop chances. This was not intended. Once we identified the problem we changed it back to how it was before. That was about 11 hours later.

Took a little time for that message to make it around internally and to make sure we understood what happened and how to avoid it going forward.

It’s never our intent to make changes without being transparent, so we wanted to come in here to respond and clarify.

Note: we did intentionally change the drop rates of rare items in certain chests, per the patch notes we posted

I'll look into it tomorrow.

No idea, hit to quote the great BenIrvo, 'balance is forever' :)

Yeah this is likely not an ingame setting. How about you hardware setup?

Headphones, speakers, windows settings, etc?

We're aware and investigating!

Not in the slightest.

Sorry I'm not sure, I'll check with QA though to make sure we have something tracking the issue. Can you DM me your system specs and what kind of mouse you have?

This is on our radar, we're looking into it!

it is not a cry for help. :)

This is my most favourite post on here. Thanks for sharing!

Nailed it. It's an engine issue (actually multiple). We have fixed two, one in early access and one in the day one patch. We have actually successfully trapped the worst one (yesterday!) and expect to have that one in one of the next patches. As well, frostbite gave us a preport of a fix for another instance with the reverb system.

So yeah, we know it sucks and are really unhappy with having to have shipped it - we just weren't able to repro this multi faceted bug quickly enough to fix all instances before ship. It will be addressed, if it's the last thing I do before I die :)

Sorry, and thanks for your patience.
