[2019] Jet Packs are bugged

Original Post — Direct link

I’m reading through today’s patch notes and see no mention of it. It has been a full three months since the bug started. Can we please get a fix for jet packs?

Bug description: When you have a jet packed equipped, there is a random chance that pressing the jump button will activate the jet pack, instead of just jumping. This often ruins whatever jump you were attempting. Sometimes the jetpack goes off and locks you in a low hover, drains your AP, and slams you to the ground.

Hi there, we are aware of this issue and working on this for a future patch. Thanks for your patience!

To follow up on /u/LadyDevann’s earlier comment, the fix for the jet pack issue is part of a large list of bug fixes currently slated for release with our Wastelanders update. We know that fixing the jet pack bug is important to the community, and we are working to move the fix into our December patch instead so that it can go out sooner. We will let you know as soon as we have confirmed the timing on this one.

Let’s have a date. This kind of non-answer is bullshit. There’s either a date known internally for this fix or there’s not; tell us.

The studio account also commented in here, but this is planned for the Wastelanders update. But since we know this is such a requested fix from the community, we're trying to pull it out of that patch and into a December patch without breaking anything. We'll let you know more when we do.
