I won't pretend to have the exact metrics that it could be adjusted towards, but you raise some valid points. We haven't rushed into a fix for this yet, but we are keeping an eye on it and may resolve it sooner than later.

This bug can be fixed by adjusting the the cooldown, which is a backend metric which we can fix. This would only be a temporary mitigation, rather than a true fix (which would require a patch).

Most other bugs, such as the Trickster Revive being broken when using Borrowed Time, are not things that can be "fixed" by adjusting some numbers somewhere. That kind of stuff requires an edit of the code of logic of the aspect of gameplay.

Furthermore, this scrapnel issue is strong enough to potentially replace the moaning winds combo for all classes, and moaning winds is a problem we've been grappling with for months. I would call a new combo using a broken mechanic an S tier issue that should be looked at with haste.

I've checked this with the team today.

The value this mod provided was apparently always set to 2 in code-calculations, but it was displaying incorrectly as 1.5 in the tooltip. The latest patch fixed the tooltip description to correctly display the actual damage multiplier.

In terms of why it might not have been included in the overt patch notes - it might be considered a "minor" bug as it did not change any values or make players stronger or weaker, so would have been under the "minor bugs" umbrella.

We could potentially fix this via a backend config change (maintenance required).

If we go that route though, we won't do it before next week.

So you have at least a few days to have fun with it, if that's your jam.

Whelp, thanks for the report! I've asked the team to check this.

Thanks for the report - This is something we're aware of. It was not introduced into the game with this patch, but as it very rare, it may only have been noticed now.

The conditions for triggering this state are you dieng at the same exact moment as a team-mate self-revives.

Thanks for the info, that's helpful!

The drive of my question is because we are aware that certain mods DO NOT trigger if the affected enemy is NOT killed by gunfire. For example, if the enemy is killed by a skill or a DOT status effect such as Bleed, the "on kill" mod may not trigger.

Bearing in mind that sometimes DOT damage can occur or overlap with the final gunshot to kill an enemy (i.e. the enemy is killed by DOT rather than gunfire), do you think the above explanation would account for what you're experiencing?

Can you confirm whether Toxic lead doesnt trigger at all, or whether it only triggers if the enemy in question is killed with a gunshot (not with a DOT status effect or skill).

Reforged has not yet been changed.

Thanks for the tag /u/vapoorer - The CPU spike comes from the fact that the game is doing a lot of background game-loading while the opening video is playing. It's one of the reasons why making the intro-video skippable isn't a super quick flick of a dev switch.

It was partly solved in a previous patch and we have a server-side code to fix most accounts that are affected by it. There are still some accounts that are suffering from this though and we're planning to fix those via a future update.

Outriders has been updated!

We are happy to confirm the release of the latest Outriders patch today. You can find further Patch notes below.

• Please note that, as part of this patch release, we are updating some backend multiplayer infrastructure.

An exhausted one for sure.

Indeed - looks like I didn't correct the Steam notes when I updated the reddit notes when this was pointed out.

Steam has now been corrected /u/DBNSZerhyn

the balancing and set buffs you are mentioning?

All the balancing and set buffs we are mentioning is part of that future. "Buffs" are only one aspect of it though. The other changes will likely require a broadcast rather than a regular Thursday Dev News.

Grim inventor is missing some text by looks of it.

Added that now! Honestly have no idea how it got lost.

I understand your frustration of course, I'd like nothing more than finally put out that post saying "Outriders has been updated!"

Great to hear you're excited about the changes!

Helmets have one of the highest drop rate of the gear slots, but they're a bigger pool so the chance for specific helmets are lower. Still, we're aware that that's a problem and have some ideas for what to do.

Hey everyone, something I've recently been trying to do more regularly is checking in with the community on Twitch alongside our Dev News updates.

As Capo167 and Bozzified are currently streaming right now, I'll try to join their streams for a little while over the next few hours. If you'd like to chat about anything Dev News related, do drop by!

Actually, do drop by anyway, because they're both veterans of the game, know their stuff and are great people to chat to!

General News:

• Our latest patch is currently in the final stages of the first party submission process - We know that this has been a long process, but we are confident that we are nearing the proper release of this patch and are hoping to get it out in the very near future.

Fortress & wider Balancing, incl....

The buffs would release alongside the Fortress change. AP builds will get special attention with those buffs.
