Looks good.

I know crash fixes are always being looked at, but I have to bring it up again, after about an hour, the game will start to become choppy and eventually will crash. Since the last few patches the stability has gotten better and it seems to take longer, but I cannot play 2+ hours straight without a crash, ever. This has been an issue since launch. The crash always seems to come during a boss fight on an expedition, but it can happen when going into a menu or going into an NPC's menu. I'd love to update this and say it's fixed in this patch, so if you've got any insight into this particular problem please let me know. I'm on Xbox One X.

Also, any word on the bug (particularly Trickster but I have had it happen on Devastator) where after using some skills, (possibly if you're interupted?) you can't do anything but walk around? No shooting or skill use until downed, or sometimes interupted.

Thanks

Sorry to hear about your crash issue - would you be able to confirm whether, when this happens, your Xbox feels like it might have overheated? Is it in a well ventilated area?

It may have something to do with scaling or a problem in that UE4 UMG tile. Maybe a variable not setting properly on initialization of the UMG?

I've done a bit of UI design in UE4 before and I've had issues where a variable doesn't set properly when you hover over one button to the other. I'm also on a laptop and I believe windows automatically scales those displays to 150%. I'll check if I'm running in borderless windowed or full screen when I get home.

Interesting theory - were you able to find out anything with regards to your resolution scaling?

I understand if the character is unrecoverable, I've just been getting increasingly frustrated with a lack of feedback from CS.

Thank you.

Thanks for the ticket number, I'll check in with the team and ask them to get in touch with you.

I mean, I'll be excited to break out my Borrowed Time build again once we see the Revive bug fixed (I co-op almost exclusively these days).

I wonder if the devs have any updates on their investigation? I know it's not in this build, but it'd be nice to know whether they've found a root cause yet or even can verify that they can replicate it consistently. It's rather frustrating as this was a launch day bug and only recently even got onto the known issues list.

We were able to replicate and address the cause of this issue - it's currently slated to be fixed in the next patch, pending confirmation that the fix has worked.

Thanks - lemme check in with the team to see what the status of this is!

The tooltip wasn't properly updated, but the new damage modifier is active, so the new buff is active.

180% SP with 3/3 Borealis Monarch set. Tech Shaman/Demolisher for all the Anomaly power boosts when using Blighted/Cryo Turret or Cold Snap.

Before the patch Cryo turrets were easily getting into the 20m range. Now it's hard to even tell they're doing something because sounds and animations are broken. Every now and again (about once per encounter) I could hear one or two shots beeing fired.

Sorry to hear you experienced this - Looking at the other comments in this thread, I can't see other players corroborating this experience. It may therefore be an issue caused by the local installation.

Have you already rebooted your console as /u/BrokenFire319 pointed ...

I'm on Xbox and the crashing I'd say it's almost always at the outriders camp...and when I'm playing with a buddy of mine iv noticed if we got disconnected from each other or if I got kicked it was almost always at or returning to the Camp....The last 8 hours or so it's been fine, no crashes but I think the outrider's camp might be a big cause of all this

I have seen it in the past that players did encounter more crashing if the update process somehow corrupted part of the installation. Doing a fresh reinstall has worked to resolve such issues, so that may be worth a shot if the crashes persist.

Hey there, thanks for bringing this up again.

I've raised this issue with the team a few times and each time the reports have led us to finding and resolving an issue related to what was being reporting. For example, we fixed a bug related to Gravity Leap and another bug related to Blood Donation because those were being inconsistent in combo with Moaning Winds.

I've raised it again with the team and for us to hopefully try to ignore all other variables and try and get a solid reproduction of this occurring on our staging and test and only in relation to host and client.

Side musing:

What happens, however, if it turns out that the bug is that clients are doing 2x damage? That it's output is indeed higher than it should be?

Given that Moaning Winds is already OP and overused, depending on how we resolve this issue, players might see us as "buffing" an already OP skill (if we fix to give more damage), or nerfing a "meta" skill (if we...

I'm guessing this only occurs while you're the client player?

Sorry to hear that - what platform is this on?

And importantly: Do you find this crashing occurring whenever you enter a "new" area, that you haven't visited since patch release? Or can it occur in an area that you have already spent a lot of time in since the patch released?

Don't know if this was pointed out elsewhere or if I'm the only one with this issue:

Every time I load into expeditions from the menu, I ALWAYS get matchmade with a player doing a story mission. I have to then leave the party and matchmake again for expeditions and I'll join one.

Playing on Steam.

My first ever Reddit post btw so don't roast me if I posted this in the wrong spot or some cringy shit.

Welcome to the sub, thank you for the post!

This sounds like quite an unusual case - I'd be interested to hear if anyone else is encountering this?

Good to see the update. The Crawler stutter issue makes the game too frustrating to play for me currently.

Understandable - Thankfully I believe that the crawlers issue is planned to be resolved in the next patch. The fix is currently being validated.

Ahh, that makes much more sense. sightly more confusing because the sections after already had titles already

Indeed, good question - that was me messing up on formatting. Fixed now!

u/thearcan, can you get someone to actually take a look at my account issue?

I had a pair of characters deleted by a crash back in June, and Customer Support is just waffling between, "We're investigating," and "We invite you to visit the official Outriders online gaming communities..."

Sorry to hear that - whats your ticket number please?

And my Item Management accolade is STILL bugged at 99%. Nearly 2 months trying to get this fixed. What is going on? And yes, I've verified games files, yes I've double checked for latest update, and yes I have tried a full reinstall.

Sorry to hear that - whats your support ticket number please?

How many other people are experiencing this?

We did indeed implement some changes to multiplayer but they are designed to reduce rubberbanding at pings above 350ms.

Would be good to hear how many other people are affected by this behaviour.

Apologies for the delay - it released late last night so you should have it by now.

We checked the backend and made an fix adjustment for this in case anyone is encountering a wrong cooldown. If you log out and login again the correct values should display and proc.
