Will this end up changing for Playstation 4 and Xbox One or will this just not be a thing?

It unfortunately isn't possible from a hardware point of view. The intro video masks a loading screen that cannot be circumvented with the PS4 and Xbox One hardware.

Yeah, we have talked about this before in one of the patch notes threads iirc. but this was my original post about it. Its literally the only thing left that wont unlock for me that if it did would unlock all my level30 rewards and the thrown.

Yes i contacted support and they where of no help. They never offered to help/fix it. :/ Just got the "will pass it along to the team message" Also asked for an update a week or so after that and again was told they passed it along. So i assumed it would get fixed on a patch but it never did.

Can you remind of your ticket number with support?

Can you answer if some armor sets will be re-introduced to normal vendor inventories? Lat I played, certain armor sets were locked to a specific level range in the campaign (character, not WT). Talking about the 'Mu-Metal' set in particular.

If as an experienced player you're looking to acquire the full transmog library you will need to create some fresh characters in order to obtain the low level variants of gear designs. As your library spans across characters though, all characters will benefit from anything found.

u/thearcan - Any chance we can get the soundtrack on a streaming service like Spotify?

It's on our todo list - getting setup with a music distribution account is slowing us down, but we're hoping to!

u/thearcan You did an amazing Job on this write up!

Also im seriously so excited to play this update tomorrow. You guys are indeed listening and this update has blown my expectation away. This update brings like 95% of what the community wanted and then some. Thank you for the free update and i cant wait for the paid stuff. Worldslayer looks super juicy.

I just have 1 question that i dint see. Did you guys fix the 99% accolade bug? So that i can finally get my thrown and level 30 rewards unlocked?🤞 been stuck on 99% for months and i just want my chair. :)

Anywho, going to play the crap out of outriders again. LOL

u/thearcan You did an amazing Job on this write up!

Thank you! I can tell you that needing to prep 13 sub-threads across multiple tabs and then hitting reddits 1000 character limit definitely led to some sweaty palm moments...

It's possible... there were a few different reasons for it happening in the first place and I know we fixed some of those, but perhaps not all. The change-list for New Horizon is pretty overwhelming so it's possible I might have missed it somewhere. Apologies if we've been through this before, but have you prev...

There are new transmog designs, but not new weapons and mods specifically.

That kind of new content is something that would be introduced in an expansion like Worldslayer.

I don't understand why patch notes from the past are mentioned. Are these new changes in today's patch or just 'all changes' from inception of the game?

Previous (relevant) patch changes are mentioned since a lot of players bounced out of the game after launch and may want to know whats changed since then.

There is also an mis-informed notion with certain players who believe that "all we do is nerf". If you review all the changes we've done since launch (listed here), those players will actually see that we have focused on buffs buffs buffs.

Please relax this requirement a bit. I.e. all shotguns types to all shotguns. In particular, I want to use the look of Icarus, which is one of the best-looking gun models I have ever seen in a shooter, on a sniper rifle that is actually worthwhile (which automatic snipers are not).

I havent talked to the team about this directly yet, but I believe that could play havoc with animations and sound queues if you were to combine a slow firing weapon design with a rapidly firing one (for example).

Transmog dedicated subthread here.

From now on, any gear item you find in Outriders will be automatically added to your Transmog Library.

All items that are currently in your stash and inventory have been added to your Transmog library.

I thought so to when we were doing the script edits, but like you, I was wrong. Apparently Nilch is that hot new way of saying it.

Expedition Timers have been removed

  • What has been done?
    • Expeditions are no longer time restricted and the timer has become optional.
    • In this new system, finishing an expedition, regardless of how long it takes, will earn you the Expedition Reward.
  • Why has this been done?
    • Previously, rewards for Expeditions were granted based on how quickly you could complete an Expedition. For most players, this meant forcing themselves into a specific DPS meta that stifled build diversity. We want players to play Outriders the way they’d prefer to, without needing to be worried that their playstyle would be punished by a timer.
  • Give me the details!
    • As with the original Expeditions, completing an Expedition will grant item drops based on the Challenge Tier you complete it at. However, the previous Gold, Silver and Bronze re...
