COMMUNITY APPRECIATION PACKAGE LATEST NEWS:

We will deliver the Community Appreciation Package after the Inventory Restoration process has been completed.

Additionally, we would like to confirm that we are looking at doing something similar for anyone who was affected by the wipes and has had their items restored as part of our restoration process.

Further details on the deployment hereof will be shared in future.

Below is the original messaging surrounding the Community Appreciation Package, with an expanded eligibility window:

After working on Outriders for more than five years, we were as disappointed as you that the launch weekend did not go as planned. We ran into connectivity issues, which we have ...

INVENTORY RESTORATION DETAILS

Last week’s patch continues to indicate widespread success and we are very happy to now share some more details regarding our intended restoration process

What Will Be Restored:

  • Items granted will have the same attribute combinations but with God Roll values. This means that these items will be at least the same if not better quality than the originally lost items.
  • Items will be granted at the character’s highest available equip level taking World Tiers and Challenge Tiers into consideration

We are currently dealing with three groups of characters, which for the sake of clarity we’ll refer to as follows:

  • GROUP A – Unplayable characters with an invalid inventory
    • These characters lost gear and were no longer playable (“Couldn’t Connect to Server” error when ...

*Further Details on the Restoration Process:

While we understand that the following information can quickly become a bit confusing, we did want to share it here to better explain the complexity of this issue as well as any minor restoration quirks you may encounter.

  • Restoring inventories is unfortunately not a simple “restore from backup” process.
  • The process for running this restoration actually involves analysing every Outriders player profile in existence and scanning it for possible inventory corruption. Affected characters’ item histories are then cross-referenced against our analytics metrics, which in turn inform us which items were lost.
  • Group A
    • The rules we are using to identify most (but not all) inventory wipe cases are as follows:
      • Our database can conclusively tell us whether a player has an invalid inventory by checking whether they have an item in all equipment slots.
      • After th...

such as to speedily remove obvious NDA breaks

Why are you removing any content from this community subreddit? An NDA is to prevent a party from disclosing confidential information. Once that information is in the wild, your NDA has no bearing on whether or not it belongs on social media.

This subreddit specifically has a "no leaks" rule.

Furthermore, your argument doesn't apply if the the people breaking the NDA are specifically doing so here on Reddit, as they were doing previously.

Back in December I talked about the value of NDAs to us and the damage that leaks and broken NDAs can do to a project. By trying to make an argument for supporting leaked content, you are actually making an argument that in turn would make it ha...

I generally refrain from moderation on this subreddit - as I explained already in February

I even posted on Friday that I avoid removing any comments even when they are entirely unhelpful to the topic at hand.

Nevertheless, I did take a look at the mod-log for that particular thread.

This is the main sub, but a few people were put off because a few mods here work for Square Enix. I personally don't post in this one, outside of replies, because I don't like Subs where the Devs/Publisher have any control over what can be posted.

Not saying any of the mods are silencing anyone, there are valid complaint threads here that stay up etc. I've just seen some shit-shows in the past where the sub for a game was rainbows and sunshine only because the Devs (who were mods) deleted any criticism, so I avoid those when I can.

Edit: Strike through.

Thank you for the extensive information! Would you be able to share your Steam ID with me so we can check your logs?

I do think something funny is going on rn.

Literally overnight my difficulty level seems to have skyrocketed. I’m still on the same world tier and same level, but the difficulty seems to have changed massively.

How many characters do you play with and did you switch between them at all in recent days?

VIDEO example of me playing solo and no bug.

As you see, the red skulls all appear in the center of the crosshair each time I get a kill, and my ammo keeps popping up to 45. There is no ICD.

Thank you, this is great!

First attempt to tag.

Tl;Dr : The Ash Cleaner mod does the opposite of what it says.

Do you happen to have a video of this in action? The more info you can provide, the easier it'll be for us to try to reproduce this.

u/thearcan Just a heads up of this bug in co-op. Not sure if the team is aware.

Thanks for the tag - looking at your video it looks like an internal cooldown on the mod might be at play here - hence the effect triggering on your first kill, but not on kills immediately after that.

Can you confirm whether this might be the case?

Once I have that info, it'll be easier to pass on to the team.

It would be more consistent if you fight off everything in an area except one enemy and then compare how many attacks it takes that last one to kill you.

This would actually be very helpful to us. I've triple checked with the teams and nothing has been intentionally changed, buffed or nerfed in the last 7 days.

If someone is able to provide a current 1 to 1 comparison of this happening today along with their (Steam?) user ID, we'd be much better able to look into this.

As it is, nothing on our metrics is indicating that anything has changed, bearing in mind that this telemetry spans all players, whereas what is be reported here could be more anecdotal.

This would place this wipe before the patch was released.
