We now tried over half an hour and found out that we (located in Germany) are NOT able to join GER Missions!!!

We could both jump quite without problems on an AT mission or an PL mission, where the host was from a different country then we are.

Platform: PS4pro and PS5
1st try: Invite via PS Network -> connection failed
2nd try: My buddy created a mission, i found it and try to join -> connection failed
3rd try: i invited my buddy and after that created a mission where he tried to join -> connection failed
4th tray: my buddy and I tried to join a DE mission -> connection failed (for both)
5th try: my buddy joined an AT mission and i joined directly with hin -> SUCCESS
6th try: we tried to join each other via PS network invite -> connection failed
7th try: we tried to join a DE mission again -> connection failed
8th try: we tried to join an AT mission again -> SUCCESS
9th try: we tried to...

I’ll pass it on! Are you by any chance on the same internet provider? That’s probably not relevant at all, but it adds more info to the puzzle.

Like others said he might have some form of arachnophobia which got triggered. While I am definitely on the “nuke them from orbit” team, the glyphids does absolutely nothing for me spiderwise. Those things in Grounded, tho’…

Edit: Have you tried talking to him about it? Might help him work it out and one day he’ll be in the frontlines caving in skulls with the best of them.

I don’t know if anyone will have a fix for me but I am on PS5 and when I start this game up I get screen tears for about 30 seconds or more and then eventually it goes fine.. and the same goes with rocket league. Everything else is perfectly normal and loads like normal but these two are strange.. anyone got an idea?

Both are Unreal Engine games, so that might be key to figuring out why, but most likely hardware issues, since it doesn't seem to be common.

All of you having issues connecting, you can join each other with the following -

Both have DRG running and disbanded groups

Through the playstation interface Person A creates a party with Person B.

Go back to the friends list on Playstation, Person A selects person Bs. They should be showing as playing Deep Rock Galaxy.

This will then launch you into the game with your friend.

Either that or randomly started working for us but we were having issues last night and this morning trying to play

To the devs, is it an issue with Conflicting party join groups? Where if the players are already in a playstation group then its fine?

Could be. It could also be people trying to join a client and not the person hosting, or something with the party affecting it. We're collecting all the data we can on it.

My setup is ps5 on my network and PS4 on my network I tried rebooting it and adding removing everything and I still couldn’t get a co-op game with my son. Now heres the interesting thing my router is dual band the PS4 is on 2.5ghz and my ps5 is on 5ghz when I changed my ps5 to 2.5ghz IT WORKED. after 2 days me and my son can finally ROCK AND STONE again I hope this helps anyone still with problems.

That's interesting! Thanks!

appreciate the info, i thought the same thing.

We had an issue with one if the packs in the DLC - sounds like this is the same, so it should be an easy fix.

Not sure how it works on PlayStation, but we do have the option to restore saves in the in-game options in the other versions. Try checking there.

PSA: Pooping for 45 mins isn’t good for your butt.

It’s like Sophus wheels in the flaming piano, the Troels (our audio guy & the guy that produces the hell out of the tracks) swoops in with an overtuned flamethrower while beatboxing.

If you’re interested in the journey from composition to finished produced track, he has a couple of videos on his youtube channel going through the process. I’d link it, but I’m on a train right now.

Glad you like it!

I’ve been running the dev stream twice a week pretty much since we added the Deep Dives, and it doesn’t get old. Sure, streaming is exhausting, but the game remains fun (granted, interacting with the community is part of it too). I don’t think it would have been possible without the theme or the procedurally generated caves, but it’s never boring. I’ve unlocked all the overclocks legit during the streams and occassional solo play, and I am still having fun. Doing the same without the banter, the RNG, the sometimes wonky stuff happening in eg. a story driven single player game would have rotted my brain.

Getting paid also helps

It’s like diluting the fun with Leaf Lovers Special. Disclaimer: we’ve done it on the dev stream

Oh yes, there totally is. It’s just consistently hitting a small group of people out of the total player base, so we’re trying to figure out what is different. I’ve seen some posts mentioning they’re in the same house (living together), but that’s just a small piece of the puzzle, and it might not be the full extent of it - and most likely isn’t the actual cause (since our inhouse testing is… in the same house).

Okay, very bad news! What we tested: Platform: PS4 and PS4 pro Started the game without chat active. I started an open server without password - friend couldn't connect De friended friend, restarted console, restarted game, created open game without password - my de friended buddy searched for my game - couldn't connect. Important: My friend couldn't connect to any game I can at least connect to other games

This is very, very strange .... We don't have any problems with other games.

Maybe someone can also test other possibilities, but it looks like it is not depending on settings in-game, because we nearly do not change anything (except controls) .

Good luck ... This seems to be a hard one and I hope you guys are at least trying to solve it

We’ve located a few things that might cause issues, like the system clocks not matching(?!?) and having a blocked list of more than 15 people(?!).

Is this you, killa_kong? If it is, you tried twice yesterday, once in the PlayStation channel and then in the Steam on - and again today. Either way, we just created a specific LFG channel for PlayStation, which is fairly active. There will be peak hours and most player will probably not come to Discord to find others (though it’s definitely picking up).

Have a little patience or maybe try joining some games on the server list.

I’ve passed it on. It’s weird, because in the mass of new players, this seems extremely rare, which makes me think it’s possibly a hardware issue. This is just my theory, but Deep Rock is more CPU/memory heavy than GPU heavy, which tends to stress games in new ways, which could be why people affected won’t experience it in other games.

But if you have issues with inviting friends, my friends and I noticed some similar issues with Tribes of Midgard.

Some friends couldn't join me if they were sent an individual invite, but COULD join if they went into an invite dropped into a party. Some, had the inverse issue.

Might not be relevant in this case, but may be something worth trying, since at least on PS4/PS5 there seems to be some slight difference between getting Game Invite (sent to an individual player), and 'posting' a session invite into a Party's Text Chat and having party members join that way.

That's super helpful. Any info like this might be an important piece of the puzzle!

Thank you for the quick response.

Any way we can help? We can provide you with info if you need from our end.

It will be really helpful if we can get a video of the flow used. It is working for some, so we really need something visual to help it track down for those where it doesn't work, as there are a lot of ways to invite friends.So video where we can see the path to failure - are you in a party/are you unable to play with PS4 people on a PS5/unable to play with PS5 people on a PS4/does it work when a PS4 invites, but not when a PS5 invites.

Question. What method would be best in giving feedback and pointing out bugs in the game for devs to look into.

We do have a jira set up for it, and instructions on how to access it on our Discord. Posting on reddit is a good 2nd alternative, but it needs traction to be visible.

My suggestion is, that it must be sth with being friends in PS AND maybe because friends are normally together in PS chat BEFORE they play! Option 1: inviting friends without PS chat (nobody is connected to PS chat) Option 2 : creating a game where friends join WITHOUT PS chat active Option 3 : de friend a buddy, create a game and send him the mission name, so that he can join via mission board.

I do think, that option 2 can work ... I can test it later - work is waiting 😅

That's interesting!
