Hello!
I'm one of the two CMs for Outriders. We've both been working nonstop since launch and this past weekend was the first day where we took our foot off the gas for a moment just to catch our breath. We were still monitoring everything to ensure the patch was deploying okay, but we didn't post at the time.
We then used Monday for a bigger review of the situation since the patch.
As you may have seen today, we've just posted our next dev update.
" we need a lot of details so that we can reproduce issues on our end. Reproduction in turn can lead to resolution. "
Press the outriders icon on your desktop, click start game. Play a couple of hours of coop with 2 friends. You dont need us to tell you anything, try the coop experience for a few hours and you will figure it out :)
We have hundreds of QA testers testing all aspects of the game. When they encounter issues, they report them.
The issue here is that even those hundreds of testers cannot compare to the huge volume of players and playtime in the wider population, where individual scenarios can impact our game in a way that our testers would never be able to replicate.
This is why I keep asking for details.
"Since we resolved the server issues of the launch week (...)" - no, you haven't. Not even close. Have you seen all the posts by PS5 players stuck in "Signed in!" limbo for example? That is the exact opposite of server issues being resolved! And your twitter just recommends to unplug the console every time! Seriously, that's the "fix" you're satisfied with?!
This is a local caching issue that appears specific to the PS5. The fact that a local fix can resolve this issue does indicate that it's console side rather than server side.
However, it is something we are looking in to, but it is unrelated to rubberbanding so I didn't mention it here.
I read this post as "We aren't seeing issues on our end" and clearly by all the posts... It cannot be just the players...
As stated in the post - it's not that we're denying that there are issues. But we need more info to go on in order to properly investigate.
Do i have to make space in my stash for this to work? It is almost full.
The items will be first placed onto the affected character. As long as there is space there you should be okay, but clearing a bit of space in your stash wont hurt, just in case.
I've had 3 characters encounter the "Group A" bug. Can I expect them all the have the same results? Will my stash be an issue here? I want to be prepared as much as possible to ensure no more issues. Thanks for the update, it's greatly appreciated! I know we're all anxious to get back to our locked characters.
All three character should be restored individually. Your stash shouldn't be an issue here, but if you're at all concerned, it may be worth creating a fourth character as a mule just in case.
Are all the mods we got prior to getting wiped safe as well? Or will we have to re earn them?
According to our checks, mods should have been unaffected by any wipes since they are not part of an inventory as such.
I’m sure this has been asked many times, but how high on the priority list are connection issues. I was playing with friends last night and was kicked from the squad a dozen times or more in roughly a three hour window. It was very frustrating.
Have just replied on this matter here.
Edit - THURSDAY: Just a note to say thank you to everyone who has replied here and/or DM'd me with details. I am continuing to gather reports to identify patterns that may be helpful to our team in investigating these issues.
I also want to reiterate that this reply is not us refuting that some players are experiencing problems with co-op. Rather, this reply is intended to explain the kind of information we need in order to better understand and resolve the issues you are facing.
OP below
Thanks for kicking this thread off, I'm really sorry that you're continuing to encounter these frustrations with the co-op connectivity.
As a bit of background for how we've typically dealt with connectivity issues to date:
Whenever I noticed a large number of reports around connectivity issues for the game I immediately checked in with the online team to see if we are encountering any connectivity problems. If they were not already aware (and they are a...
Read moreNothing to say about the shit connection and game crashes? You are doing it wrong. I have a 300/300Mb internet and I have ZERO success to play the matchmaking games.
How is possible that you don't see the problem here?
I will be momentarily responding in this thread here about this.
Edit - direct link.
One of my characters got wiped twice locked on the second time. Will I get all the legendarys back from both wipes?
Based on the way we're going about this (see the further details), you should be.
What about items lost in the stash?
Stash items should also be accounted for.
Well that was straight and to the point. Got this out of the way in a hurry after 4 days of silence and on to the next I suppose.
You can tell because there isn't a sign off message "Good luck there Outriders!" or "Stay safe on Enoch!"
They're over it. lmfao.
Writes 2000+ words to explain everything.
Is accused of being over it :(
removed just like my invetory... double dang
Removed?
WTF?
Edit: I originally got the notification and said [post deleted], hence my reaction, it was a bit ironic...
Why was it removed
Yeah what was that!
That was fast!?
