Hey folks,

This is a bug. We changed Seismic Smash and a couple of other abilities so they could destroy lobbed beehives, and unintentionally made them trigger propane tanks as well.

This should be fixed in update 12.00. It will no longer trigger propane tanks, but will still destroy beehives.

Hey everyone,

We've released maintenance patch v11.40.1 on PC, Mac, PS4 & Xbox. A download is required.

Thank you!

Yep! Directly related. There is an odd bug where severe instances of server lag can push players back to the tutorial. This doesn't impact game progress. You can leave the tutorial and it will place you back on the map / front end.

Hey everyone, just to give an update on where we're at:

We've released some server fixes that solves the more severe cases of de-syncing that's occurring. However, There are several cases that we're still investigating. Server metrics are showing improvements but we're still encountering some spikes and intense server load under some scenarios. The team is diving in and taking a look at what's causing the increased load and we hope to have an update for you all soon. Thank you!

So far the reports both internal and external aren't super widespread of inventory wipes. I've reached out to players reporting this and grabbing their account information for further investigation. Definitely seems related disconnects between client and server due to the current lag. However, the wipe isn't impacting every player.

We've released some server fixes that solves the more severe cases of de-syncing that's occurring. Inventory loss shouldn't occur since the fixes but we're still keeping our ear to the ground. By no means am I saying the lag is completely resolved completely.

When we made changes to the Gas Trap.. the effect duration perk wasn't functioning correctly (at all). With v11.40 the perk will not properly add duration to the poison cloud.

Hey everyone, Thank you for the reports on the severe server lag. We've added a few server fixes that should reduce the lag significantly.

We're looking into the other issues that have been reported since this updates release.
