Read moreThank You for the transparency on the issues.
Yes, I have this issue already and its been like this for sometime. Weeks if not months. However im not 100% sure its the same as you guys have now.
I play on PC and sometimes "I'd agree its rare maybe like 1 out of 10-15x" when starting the game, the game would Crash right after the whole PCF movie. Literally the movie ends and then boom instant crash.
Its like the game freeze on the fade to black screen and i get the pop up crash report window and after like 30 sec the game closes on its own to desktop. I then close out the crash report rather then sellecting to send the report because it takes way to long to send the report and then i try to relaunch the game. Usually it will work but sometimes it might take a couple times or at worst case i have to do a PC restart.
I have alot of hours in outriders. Over 700h. I play alot. So not sure if what i described above is the issue you guys are seeing but let...
Thank you for the info and details!
Acari helm - Acari chest with captain hunter - lower armor with ash increased range / exposing strike - gloves with burnt-out / bullet kindling - Acari boots with ashen boost…… using the standard T3 mods on Acari set….weapons if needed to know are funeral pyre and death shield with standard mods
Thank you!
I have a roughly 1in 5 chance the game launches properly, very rarely does the game properly crash. Instead it hangs up on sign in. Usually at "downloading latest server configuration" occasionally earlier in the sequence at "connecting to back end". This happens both before and after cache clears, router reboots don't seem to help or hurt one way or the other. Using an Xbox One (no x/s series or otherwise, terabyte model run). I assume this is part of the already known xbox sign in issues, but adding my bit just in case.
Thanks for the info - I'm very hopeful that precisely this patch will help you with your sign in issue, but we're continuing to spend time investigating it!
This has happened to me alot more often after the last update. I didn't think much of it as it reopened correctly the second time. Ryzen 3600x, Radeon 6800 non xt, 16GB ram, 3600mhz
Just to confirm - you're saying it always takes "2 starts" to get going? Since you mention that it happens a lot but it also launches after the second go?
This or something very similar has happened since launch for me. Steam, 980ti, 32GB, 3600X.

Interesting! Does it happen every patch? Or just fairly regularly? Every day?
Read morePersonal I have around 800 hrs invested and the first 400 hrs were played on the Xbox one x and the second 400 hrs were played on the series x. On the one x I experienced the most crashes. However since I switched to the series x I have not seen any crashes except twice and both were in zehidies upgrading menus when increasing gear attributes. Other then those two instances I have never experienced a crash since I switched to the series x.
A list of things I still have noticed since the game launched. Some of these may already be known and I have just missed the thread that has noted these issues.

Thanks for the post! A few of the things you've mentioned are already on our tracked investigations thankfully.
Interesting note regarding moaning winds though - we have a fix in place in a future patch for a moaning winds issue but im not sure if it's the same one as you describe. Will be keen to hear more about whether the issue persists once we implement our fix.
Twice I have failed to join a multiplayer party and been kicked to lobby. The game then freezes and goes black screen. I have to close the game and re launch it as no amount of waiting resolves it. I'm on XBOX Series S.
I am a pyromancer main. I use Overheat, Heatwave and Ashblast. I never got into anyone's game so I highly doubt their character class will have affected the crash.
Edit: I also have tidal wave. Full Atari gear. Can share more of my mods if needed :D
I only use pyro and have always used Overheat and Heatwave and Ash blast when these crash have happened.
Hope this helps :)
I personally feel that you either wait till thursday or just wait until its smoothed out. I've had a real blast playing your game and got some friends to try it out who all feel the same. Thank you for making such an awesome game and being open with the community recently!
Thanks for the info! Interesting to hear that you encountered the crash when attempting to join an MP party (rather than leaving one). That's another angle to look into...
I think it was a mistake to even hint that a patch might come sooner than Thursday. Unforeseen issues always have the potential to arise and sure enough that’s what has happened. Now the devs have a PR problem that could have been avoided—although they’re doing a good job of trying to smooth it out. In future I think it’s better to stick to Thursdays, but if a patch comes sooner than that then it’s just a nice surprise. “Underpromise and over deliver” and all that. …
You make a fair point, but we have to straddle that line between keeping people informed and being called uncommunicative because we're not talking enough.
When we bring players closer to understanding the dev cycle, it exposes all the normal issues developers face throughout years of development. Most other games I've worked on have faced the exact same challenges and had delayed patches and launches, it's just that we're trying to be as transparent as we can be with Outriders.
People may think such issues and delays are specific to Outriders. They're not. We just happen to talk about them a lot more, so you know about them.
Underpromise and over deliver would indeed be ideal, but when you're constantly hounded by "dead game" comments despite all the work our teams are inputting, it's pretty difficult to not explain what's going on behind the scenes.
You guys have made a wise decision here imo. As a pyro running those skills lately (and im p sure I have tidal wave, that's the width increase mod right?), I have not experienced this bug, disconnecting us on returning to lobby.
Best of luck troubleshooting, and looking forward to the patch :3
Thanks!
Tidal Wave is the below mod:
Heatwave: The skill can be activated 1 more time before triggering the Cooldown.
So you may be relying on a different mod combination. Which is pretty valuable to know in itself given that you said you have a stable experience.
I'm ok with pushing the patch to Thursday, but could we have the patch notes please? Are you just dealing with crashing issues or will we also get something more specific like the Borealis set bonus fixed? Thanks
We including information of what would be in the next patch in our recent dev update here.
Once again sounds like PC. Can you please let us know on which platform you are seeing these issues.
PC particularly for the crash on launch issue, but we're not excluding other platforms from our investigation and it would be valuable to hear from anyone encountering these issues on any platform.
Yes this has happened to me frequently...I have been playing since the demo with 1k hours
Thanks for the info - which skills and mods do you use?
happens all the time when on my pyro, i run heat wave and overheat on top tree
Thanks for the info - which mods do you use for those skills?
I have encountered crashes (only a few times) when I click "Login". Always works the second time. I'm on a Series X.
Thanks for the info! Have you found that these crashes are more frequent after a patch release or are they fairly random?

I chatted about this here.
Have you encountered this issue before?
Issue description:
A rare issue that, after installing the patch, appeared to cause the game to crash on launch for a small number of testers. After a certain number of these launch crashes, the game launched without any issues and the crashes did not reappear.
Have you encountered this issue before?
If yes, please let us know if you've noticed a pattern as to when this issue occurs. Please also share your PC's CPU, GPU & RAM combinations.
Hi everyone,
As you know we were hoping to release our latest patch today. We have, however, made the difficult decision to push the patch back to Thursday. We’ve explained this decision below – please do take the time to read it as it contains important information.
tl;dr: We encountered a couple crash issues and need your help to determine the risk they may pose!
During our final tests of this latest patch, our team encountered two different crash scenarios, as described below:
Read more External link →Read moreAh, thank you very much! Interesting. This clip is from Story area.
Been a while since I played any Story areas as Techno, so I don't remember if I had that issue there, but I run Expeds almost daily and it definitely happens there all the time. I literally just finished a run and saw it happening. It honestly just seems normal after a while. Maybe it's Expeditions-exclusive bug?
It's easiest to recreate on Colosseum, the narrow walk right at the beginning. There are two packs of Alphas there. I Cold Snap the first pack, I start shooting and one I shoot immediately breaks out, as do closest ones to it due to splash, while others further away stay frozen.
Then there's another pack spawning just before the gate at the end and it's exactly the same: Cold Snap, shoot, one shot and closest to it break out, all the others stay frozen.
It can't be their resistance or immunity, because the ones that aren't being damaged stay frozen. It is definitely me shoot...
Excellent, that's all very helpful information! I've passed your scenario on to the team to test, ideally with and without the Earthborn AR to determine whether it plays a part.
If they're able to replicate this, we can log it as a bug which in turn may mean that we can resolve it in a future patch.
