I’ll report this also, can you please double check you have plenty of free memory available on your device?

Sorry if this was the first thing you did! I have to ask because it’s my job :sweat_smile:

@IbstockMafia ok the team are on it! Honestly though I don’t think I will be around when this is fixed as this is an issue which involves an intercontinental team so it may be some crazy hour of the morning for me when I get more info.

It’s being looked into as the highest priority even if you don’t hear from me here though. Being in the UK yourself you will no doubt see the update is live before I do from Australia if it’s fixed at...

It should download automatically when you open the game, if not try what scott suggested here:

I can see it on the store but I’m also double checking with the team to see if they can see what’s going on.

Hey folks, just an update on this one.

Unfortunately this needs a client fix, which means we need to put the game through the whole submission process with the stores again and wait for approval before releasing the fix.

We have a meeting scheduled on Monday to talk about when is the earliest we can get a fix to you all as it can’t be this weekend - that is out of our hands due to needing to resubmit the game to get a fix live.

I’ll also be following up on how this passed QA :frowning:

We’re very sorry as we know this is pretty inconvenient.

My people, mark up is hard. We tested ALL sorts of combinations before pushing this live… we didn’t share a team code with a “1488” ID in it though because I wasn’t thinking of that.

I will see about getting this fixed, if it can’t be I’ll ask for ‘1488’ to be uncensored.

I am very happy that some people here have so little interaction with neo-nazis that they don’t realise that any time a gamer uses the numbers ‘1488’ in their game names they are always referring to nazis.

Let’s not defend it for the sake of other, more innocent things like discussions about Putin or American Presidents, or other historic dates and symbolism. There are some very straight forward references that are commonly used by neo-nazis, and almost never by anyone else in games, pop culture or the mass media and this is one of them.

If you didn’t already know that, I’m sorry you had to learn here :frowning:...

Just poking my head in to say, I would just have your discussion and share your ideas, then flag and ignore any posts that go against community guidelines - don’t respond to them.

Threatening flags and telling people to act normal tends to cause more problems than would naturally happen :sweat_smile:

Most people here are doing the right thing so no need to preface your posts each time :sweat_smile:

Could you try to get a screen recording of this? I’ll let the team know to see if anyone can repro it but that would be super helpful.

Can you see it yet? I just checked the Australian and US stores for Xbox and it appears the update is available. If you’re still having trouble let me know.

I’m looking into this.

@GEMSFan2 I looked into what you said about your account being suspended. The forum software picked you up as a spammer due to how quickly you sent the post and it blocked your account (not banned, your account was just marked as not trusted). I can fix that up for you if you like but as you’re posting ok on this new account now I can leave it? up to you. Screenshot to show what I mean:

I’m not going to go into it any further than this:

Hey, I know. This is feedback I have consistently passed on and plan to bring it up again at the earliest opportunity I have :v:

We take references to white supremicism, nazis and Hitler very seriously.
This is usually taken incredibly seriously by game studios in general.

Prior to working for IP2 I worked for a German game publisher and so I learnt a few things.
One of those things is that not only is neo-nazism and white supremecy disgusting (which we all already know obviously), but certain symbols, words and numbers and the way they are used can be literally ILLEGAL.

As a game that welcomes players from all backgrounds and as a company that does not tolerate racism we will not mess around with names that are clearly referring to nazis.

We are not apologetic to neo-nazis or any kind of racist, and we will not give them the benefit of the doubt. We have a hard stance on it. We are not apologetic about this stance.

We also offer our game to German speaking players who may be residing in Germany where, as I mentioned, some references are literally illegal in some contexts...

Hi folks,

Thanks for your patience this week waiting for a follow up from the team here.

We want to provide you with more details about the Dungeon RNG fix.

We actually thought the tool that was created to predict the doors was awesome and speaks volumes about how passionate and inventive our community creators are. It was disappointing to us that this fix was going to affect that tool. I believe it was @sls who worked hard on the tool itself with all the data the community provided - seriously kudos to sls and everyone else who contributed and I’m sorry this change has been so discouraging to so many who were involved in that project and used it.

It was necessary that we fix the broken RNG in the Dungeon though, because we told everyone the doors h...

Popping into this thread for a 5 second breather after 2 hours of hyper focus on CX stuffs.

My playlist today has been Seether, Jimmy Eat World, All Time Low, Stone Sour…

But here’s a song I had a minor obsession with awhile ago, found this artist on tiktok!

@SilverStream thanks for reporting this! I’ve moved this into its own bug report thread as it was different from the bug report you originally posted this in.

What does the error say?
Also which platform do you play on? (PC, iOS, Android, Xbox Playstation, Switch etc?)

Thanks folks, I know how unhappy everyone is with the game right now, I’ve asked for more detailed information so we can make another post about the Dungeon before the weekend so we can share what we can with everyone.

The forums got crazy on both sides of the discussion, I really don’t like sending warnings and bans, and especially don’t like deleting posts. I don’t want to be a cop but it got so out of hand I had to do more moderation than usual. Doing my best to keep everything as fair as possible regarding community guidelines.

All of us here on CX also appreciate how much patience everyone has had with our communication so far this week, despite being angry with the game itself, as Jeto was working by herself on Monday and Tuesday while myself and Gman were at an industry conference, then Wednesday was an office holiday (although a lot of us still had our work hats on as we were still at the conference and at our major Australian Game Developer Awards night) and n...
