Β

Gameplay

  • The Spread Democracy mission otherwise known as β€œraise the flag” can now be enjoyed on higher difficulties for maximum freedom spreading.

Fixes:

Patch 1.000.102

Spoiler

Today's patch is dealing with the spawn rate of heavily armored Terminid enemies as well as the possible play against them. It also contains some fixes to UI elements and crash fixes.

Β 

βš–οΈ Balancing Enemies:

  • The amount of heavily armored targets that spawn on higher difficulties, especially for Terminids, have been a big discussion point online and internally. The intent is for groups to have to bring some form of anti-tank capability but not to the degree previously needed.

Β 

To that end we have reduced the spawn rate of Chargers and Bile Titans on difficulties 7 and up. In addition we have reduced the risk of spawn spikes of Chargers and Bile Titans. Please note that we have changed the distribution of enemy types, not reduced difficulty. Expect other enemy types to appear in greater numbers instead.

Β 

  • We are humbled by the community's ability to find things like Chargers β€œleg meta” in our game, however spending your heavy anti tank weapons on legs instead of the obvious weak point seems counter to expectation.

Β 

We are not changing anything regarding the Charger’s legs, we are however lowering the health of the Charger’s head. It should now be at a point where a well placed shot from a Recoilless Rifle or EAT-17 instantly kills a charger. Together with the unfortunately undocumented change of last patch that increased the armor penetration ability of less well placed shots for EAT-17s and Recoilless Rifle shots, Chargers should now be easier to handle by well equipped groups.

Β 

Gameplay

  • "Electronic Countermeasures" operation modifier, which had a chance of giving you a random stratagem instead of the one you input, has been removed in order to be reworked, and will be reintroduced in a future iteration. We found that this modifier wasn’t communicated clearly enough and overall caused more frustration than excitement with the way it was currently implemented. This change was made in 1.000.100 but was unintentionally omitted from the patch notes.

Β 

Fixes

  • Fixed missing text on several HUD / UI elements.
  • Fixed several subtitle / VO mismatches in the news videos.
  • Fixed various crashes that occurred mid-gameplay and when deploying to missions.

Β 

🧠 Known Issues These are issues that were either introduced by this patch and are being worked on, or are from a previous version and have not yet been fixed.

  • Game crashes when attempting to use a stim while inside an Exosuit.
  • Pink artifacts may appear in the sky when setting off large explosions.
  • Automaton Dropship seemingly disappears and slides in after being shot down.
  • Shots from arc-based weapons may not count towards kills in post-mission stats.
  • Players cannot unfriend other players befriended via friend code.
  • Cross-platform friend invites might not show up in the friend requests tab, and cross-platform players may not be able to accept friend requests.
  • Players may be unable to select loadout or return to ship when joining a multiplayer game session via PS5 Activity Card.
  • The Exosuit can destroy itself with rockets if it fires while turning.
  • Text chat box display is obstructed by the cinematic letterboxing during extraction.

I really hope that they finally address to huge problem with the friend request system...

Me and my friends can't play together, because we can't add each other with friend codes. Talking about cross play here, but there were reports about same platform problems as well, where people couldn't add each other using friend codes.

The codes themselves work, because we can find each other and even send a request, but when we try to accept said request, it either freezes up and whole system reboot is necessary or it just goes in an infinite loop and stays on the annoyingΒ Please wait democraticallyΒ message and the whole social tab is unusable until a game restart...

And yeah...none of the suggested potential fixes worked for us, so no luck on that...Their reddit is full of reports about this, but nobody got aΒ  definitive answer and some of the reports date a month back, so almost since release...Only ever answer wherever we actually find anything was about Sending a support ticketΒ and hope they notice it...

I mean come on man...how can they fuck up a fundamental thing like this in a game that is meant to play with a squad and the system that let's you manage this isn't working as it should...

Yeah, I understand that they're a small team and many say to give them a break for this, but come on....seeing the reports, this has been a problem since almost the very beginning and the least they could do is to say that they're working on it or something...

Most of us bought the game to play with friends from different platforms, but like this where we can't even add each other to be able to team up is just wasted money...

Patch notes 1.000.102

Spoiler
Today's patch is dealing with the spawn rate of heavily armored Terminid enemies as well as the possible play against them. It also contains some fixes to UI elements and crash fixes.

Β 

βš–οΈ Balancing Enemies:

  • The amount of heavily armored targets that spawn on higher difficulties, especially for Terminids, have been a big discussion point online and internally. The intent is for groups to have to bring some form of anti-tank capability but not to the degree previously needed.

Β 

To that end we have reduced the spawn rate of Chargers and Bile Titans on difficulties 7 and up. In addition we have reduced the risk of spawn spikes of Chargers and Bile Titans. Please note that we have changed the distribution of enemy types, not reduced difficulty. Expect other enemy types to appear in greater numbers instead.

Β 

  • We are humbled by the community's ability to find things like Chargers β€œleg meta” in our game, however spending your heavy anti tank weapons on legs instead of the obvious weak point seems counter to expectation.

Β 

We are not changing anything regarding the Charger’s legs, we are however lowering the health of the Charger’s head. It should now be at a point where a well placed shot from a Recoilless Rifle or EAT-17 instantly kills a charger. Together with the unfortunately undocumented change of last patch that increased the armor penetration ability of less well placed shots for EAT-17s and Recoilless Rifle shots, Chargers should now be easier to handle by well equipped groups.

Β 

Gameplay

  • "Electronic Countermeasures" operation modifier, which had a chance of giving you a random stratagem instead of the one you input, has been removed in order to be reworked, and will be reintroduced in a future iteration. We found that this modifier wasn’t communicated clearly enough and overall caused more frustration than excitement with the way it was currently implemented. This change was made in 1.000.100 but was unintentionally omitted from the patch notes.

Β 

Fixes
  • Fixed missing text on several HUD / UI elements.
  • Fixed several subtitle / VO mismatches in the news videos.
  • Fixed various crashes that occurred mid-gameplay and when deploying to missions.

Β 

🧠 Known Issues These are issues that were either introduced by this patch and are being worked on, or are from a previous version and have not yet been fixed.
  • Game crashes when attempting to use a stim while inside an Exosuit.
  • Pink artifacts may appear in the sky when setting off large explosions.
  • Automaton Dropship seemingly disappears and slides in after being shot down.
  • Shots from arc-based weapons may not count towards kills in post-mission stats.
  • Players cannot unfriend other players befriended via friend code.
  • Cross-platform friend invites might not show up in the friend requests tab, and cross-platform players may not be able to accept friend requests.
  • Players may be unable to select loadout or return to ship when joining a multiplayer game session via PS5 Activity Card.
  • The Exosuit can destroy itself with rockets if it fires while turning.
  • Text chat box display is obstructed by the cinematic letterboxing during extraction.

since the latest patch, I had the game crash three times, never happened to me before. Bad luck or bad patch?

Also, sometimes my load-out resets as well as the tutorial messages. It's kinda annoying and also only happening since the last patch.

It never crashed for me. I also have the loadout reset and tutorial text after every restart. Very annoying tbh.

When I started the game I had no issues really, but after 101 I had about 4 crashes and several disconnects. This patch the crashes/disconnects stopped, but every time I start the game my loudout has been reset and tutorial messages appear in game again. Annoying

Enemy Patrols

Β 

  • Balancing adjustment to patrol spawning.
  • Patrol spawning has been increased when there are fewer than 4 players. The fewer the players the bigger the change. For 4 player missions there will be no change compared to before.The biggest noticeable change will be for solo players at higher difficulties.

Gameplay

  • Made minor level generation improvements to how we distribute locations throughout the mission map. This should improve variation in distance between objectives, and objectives will likely not spawn as far away from each other as often as before.
  • Added setting in the options menu gameplay section to disable automatic climbing and vaulting while sprinting.
  • The Spread Democracy mission otherwise known as β€œraise the flag” can now be enjoyed on higher difficulties for maximum freedom spreading.

Quote from design director, Niklas on increased patrols for solo players

Quote

Β 

We unintendedly had non-linear scaling of the patrol spawns so they didn't spawn as often as they should have when less than 4 players. The intention is that 1 player has 1/4th of the patrols compared to 4 players, but it used to be that they had 1/6th.

Β 

Scaling of patrol spawns was exponential before, and that felt good on 4 player lobbies but a bit too empty when playing with fewer players, especially when playing solo. So now we made the scaling of patrols to be linear, which means if you play solo you will get 25% of the patrols compared to a 4 player lobby instead of having about 17% of the patrols. There is still a cap of patrols that can spawn at the same time so during situations when we spawn a lot of patrols, such as extractions, even solo players won't notice the difference. The change is made to make the world feel less empty for 1 and 2 player lobbies, especially on high difficulty missions which was also slightly too easy for solo players compared to our intentions."

Β 

Hope this clarifies the change for everyone - we're not making the game arbitrarily harder!
