u/TotalyMoo I believe the issue is still present; see above for details ^
Thanks, I am noting everything in this thread and bringing it towards the devs for further investigation. Really appreciate the diligence and level of detail, by the way /u/Knaledge :)
First thing I did was to upgrade the drivers, but still the crashes persisted :(
Are you, or anyone in your group, using any Drone skill variants?
Yes, it persists. Just had a crash.
Are you, or anyone in your group, using the drone / assault drone?
Hey, I know you're likely not going to see this, but I was wondering if you guys knew about screens turning white inside buildings due to lighting. Not sure what causes it, but sometimes makes the game unplayable due to everything turning milky white. :(
Pretty hard not to see your comment when you reply :D
I haven't heard of this prior, could you grab a screenshot/clip and send to me in PM?
PS4 here. (Thank god you guys see this) Have the same issue since Monday - and even after todays update. :(
Some more details:
No sound when attaching yourself to a rope, only when going down on it.
Thunder even disappearing when you stand under a bus station roof.
No rain sound.
No SFX at all - you hear no wind and no atmo-noise.
Interesting: in some regions more south, the sound returns over time. But only for short periods.
Would it be possible for you to record this happening, and send my way in PM? I'm sorry for the hassle, but this could help us finding/replicating your issue.
Are you on PS4 or PS4 Pro?
Cheers, it turned up today when I restarted the game - so just a weird thing I guess...
Ah OK, great :) Thanks for coming back to me and letting me know.
I’m a software engineer as well. We had a guy who was demoing some test software a few years ago and he had an unhandled exception that crashed his program. My team lead told him to get the information and fix the bug and he said that it was “a one time thing.” We still laugh about it today. If it happened once, it will and can happen again.
It's amazing how turning something off and then back on again can solve most issues in tech. :D
Hey TotalyMoo, I have found a rather strange bug with the chem launcher forcing recoil to go DOWN after the skill is used rather than recoil upwards. How do I forward what i've found (with clips) to yourselves?
Please shoot me a PM of this happening and I will put it in the right hands. Thanks!
And yeah, that is a rather strange bug.
fullscreen
Please try giving borderless windowed mode a shot and see if this improves things.
I’ll have to take a look. When was that released?
Just a couple of hours back during today's maintenance. Should be a ~500MB download.
Hi /u/TotalyMoo - FWIW, this happened to me & a friend last night as well. I submitted an error report via PSN (w/ video attached both times).
I was in his party, he was underleveled to me, so his power level was up converted from like level 3 to level 14 (roughly).
He was using the drone w/ fixer attachment.
Both times, the game hard crashed to the PSN error reporting screen, and for about 30 seconds the whole PS4 was bricked at 0% status on the error reporting screen.
Then it went to the error report submission screen where i attached the video, etc.
After reporting it brought me back to the PS4 home screen and i had to relaunch the game.
Thanks for submitting those crash reports. Please try running without any drone, and get back to me if the issue persists.
Playing in Atmos on Xbox One X - the sound mix definitely sounds odd (seems center channel heavy; misplaced emitted sounds from rears).
Best example, in Atmos: Staring at an NPC in the moderate distance (picture the other side of an intersection), their gunshots and vocal cues are coming from the rear channels (emphasized top-left and top-right). I would expect those to come from, in that instance, front-left, front-right, center, and (depending on bullet trajectory) front-top-left/front-top-right.
Even without native Atmos support, there definitely seems to be a bit of an issue with the 5.1 mix (let alone 5.x.x/7.x.x)
Is this still the case after today's update?
Can you PM me your account name and platform, please?
IT was mainly Yesterday. I had one or two crashes on tuesday. I have been sending logs for every crash but i am excited to continue to test. Hopefully this also fixes the Frame issues i have been having.
Did you see the threads about drones? If not, please try playing in a group where no one uses the Drone, especially not the Assault Drone variant, and see if your game is more stable.
yes, I'll check it out when I logg back in later today.
Question is if other people running drones will still make you crash.
So far that seems to be the case, several people reported to me today they crash when anyone in the group uses Assault Drone specifically.
I haven't tried switching back to DX12 then down to DX11 again. It'll be about 11 hours before I'm home from work, unfortunately.
I'm not sure if it is universal to those experiencing stutters, but any input (changing direction, opening menu, etc) is non-responsive during the stutter.
Since input issues coincided, i toggled 'reduce input latency' to off, with no change noticed. This was in DX11 after having switched back from DX12.
Also, according to my system monitor, I wasn't pegged on RAM usage, so i don't suspect a memory leak. About 90%/100% CPU/GPU usage typically. Haven't seen any CPU spikes, but i didn't have a trend of that data either.
Please do let me know when you have the chance, thanks!
Yeah, i read about the assault drone skill as well, the DX11 guy were using it, so that would break some of the results i concluded!
That would definitely make sense with the rest of the reports I've seen today. Can you give playing with the same config but no one using the drone a shot, and get back to me?
I do, my friend too.
Can you check if the crashes disappear if you all stop using this skill? Thanks!
I first thought the problem would be due to scaling too since it started to happen when I was grouped up with my lower ranked mate, but after he logged out and I was doing the stronghold story missions with people my level, the problem still was there and crashes happened a lot.
/edit: why is this thread getting downvoted? People are experiencing pretty much gamebreaking issues, this should not get downvoted.
Does anyone in your group use the Assault Drone skill variant?
Mind pointing out what settlement? I cannot for the love of me find any projects that ask for weapons
That... is a good question! I'll dig a bit but not sure on top of my mind.
