#Console Downpour Issues/Bugs (SWITCH AUDIO BUGS)
1 messages · Page 3 of 1
Has safari been ok to use ?
hii can i ask somethint here abt console
on playstation and xbox but it will kill the sfx and audio
is xbox version buggy too right now
i own it on ps5/4 and switch but i heard xbox got that patch recently so it should be like the ps version
i have it on ps4 but im afraid to play it bc my data got corrupted on artificer and i dont want it to happen again
Crashes are a huge problem and those are gamebreaking you can't even do safari mode. Player 1 in arena mode is broken indefinitely and so much more. And random crashes and bugs in the normal playthrough.
it crashed like 3+ times before corrupting, all in different spots but in uhh idk if i can say the area bc spoilers i think its final area for artificer?
my ps4 could not handle that area
I'm sure the devs are trying to fix these issues but this shouldn't happen in the first place if these were small bugs id understand but this is unacceptable.
instead of making a new title videocult need to focus on fixing their current one on consoles
Right
real
should i hold off on playing until another patch comes?
i was gona get it on xbox instead but that might be equally bugged like ps4
Thats what I did because I fear my data will corrupt of something bad happens. You can if you want but its frankly unplayable and you won't have a good experience overall.
The ps4 got a patch but idk how much of the bugs were fixed
Or was it ps3
i did see a patch but my data got corrupted sometime after the patch it still crashed for me
at first i was like "ok this is an indie company so a few things here and there but it will get fixed soon" but now after a week of only knowing of one patch that didnt even fix much thats not even on switch yet, not much on twitter execpt promoting their new game, and on yt making fancams of RW, and no news about all the problems that plague it still, and i bet when the upload the fancam of gourmand most of the comments will be about if they're still trying to fix the game on consoles
I hope so because it'll get them to recognize and address these concerns.
They should already know
i hope it wont get abandoned for the next five years like how the glitch that prevented saving was
also it was ps4 and ps5 and wut was in the patch was: fixed music and sfx, so it would actually play on start up and u dont have to mess with the music slider, safari no crash no more but moving to a different room as a creature kills all audio and continues in all game modes til u close the game, also after a certain amount of time the sfx will stop playing every now and then like if u throw a rock at a wall u might here it and thats about it cuz i havent got to the dp scugs on ps5 since im redoing everything
i rly hope they fix crashes thats my main concern bc i assume maybe my ps4 couldnt handle it and thats what lead to the data corruption
i rly do wana play again i rly hope they fix some of this stuff soon 
surprisingly on switch i have been playing spearmaster and it only crashed once and it was a room in GW with like 3 squidcadas and 3 garabage worms
my game wasnt crashing at all (besides safari which i think is fixed now) until i reached a specific area
which i mentioned before idk if i can say it directly bc spoilers
You can spoiler tag
how do i do thay
its fixed on ps4/5 and xbox, switch has not got that patch yet since nintendo hasnt received the carrier pigeion with the letter telling them that they have the patch, cuz i doubt they know
||spoiler||
ah alr
my game kept crashing when i was in ||metropolis||
before then i dont think i had a single crash (ofc besides safari which is fixed on ps4)
I haven't had many crashes. Just a few when trying to start a new survivor run, but once I started, had no issues continuing. And a couple random crashes.
Would be cool if some of the performance issues were addressed though. SL seems to run better than it did, but frame rates in SB, OE, and a couple rooms in SS were terrible last I was in those areas
I've seen others have had performance issues with some other slugcat-specific areas, but haven't been in those areas just yet
Alright thats good then just gotta wait for switch which is the thing I use.
i had a REAL weird bug
i loaded up another save file where i had completed the scholar challenge before dp released and all my colored pearls were gone
so i checked the map
and somehow EVERY SINGLE PEARL had moved to a different shelter
maybe i moved them and just forgot???? idk
I can’t sleep in multiplayer
Did you pick up your partners corps
And bring it into the shelter
They were alive
This has happened multiple times
It usually works the first time though so maybe I’ll just have to restart every time I sleep
Probably
so i'm playing spearmaster on switch and once i went to ||waterfront facility|| and froze a bunch thankfully not at important times, also i found a funny exploit, i brought with me the two GW pearls so i can fill out the collection, i put them in the first ||waterfront facility|| shelter and hibernated, i then went to the next den and hibernated and once the cycle started both pearls were in the shelter, i think its caused by not filling out the map cuz i went through the pipes in the rooms and it didnt show some of the map, but when i went through the room without going through the pipes it showed the rest of the map , so im guessing it registered the two pearls being in a shelter but since the map got cut off it didnt know where so it put them with me
Anyone knows when the patch is
🤷
i'm having an issue where my game is consistently crashing (not sure how much would count as a spoiler so i'll just hide the whole thing)
||i'm playing as spearmaster in survivor's campaign via jolly co-op, i went to shoreline through shaded, went to the next room, then backtracked to the gate and went in the shelter on shoreline's side with just enough food to hibernate. in the next cycle there's always a stutter after leaving the shelter and any screen transition afterwards crashes the game. there was a similar issue in the shelter outside the chimney canopy/sky islands gate where the game would crash upon entering, but i could just not use that shelter. this issue though basically blocks all progress unless i reset or it's fixed||
yeah thats a thing
ive been playing expedition to kill time for the patch
that is weird
(also i got a corrupt save yesterday but there's nothing i can do about that, really hope all of these issues are fixed soon)
Has there been any news about an update release soon
Riv spoilers ||whenever I enter a room with a MLL in it the entire game freezes and the only thing I can do is pause and exit.|| (ps4)
cmon nintendo i just wanna play the funny little sandbox mode and spawn the funny little singularity bombs so i can crash my game on purpose
One day
For some reason my game crashes at the ending cutscene
has anybody found a way to fix the sandbox glitch
i might try expedition to pass the time becaus i really wanna play rain world i waited months for the dlc just for data corrupt 
why can my ps4 handle like 20+ sandbox lizards but cant handle (arti spoiler area) ||metropolis||
on one of the most recent tweets from the RW DP account has replies telling them to fix their game
im sure they know abt the issues then, hope they get fixed soon
also even if u refer to the wiki for the quest on expedition mode u still wont unlock anything
The area is laggy on switch switch too. I guess it's just because it's huge and filled with scavengers.
Did they say something about the next patch? Its been a long time since the last one was released…
i have been actively checking videocults twitter and yt and the RW DP twitter every now and then today and sadly nothing
i have also been checking on ps and switch for updates as well
And it doesnt seem like the dev team is receiving all these reports…
Or are they?
videocult are not making patch for console version
its akupara their publisher
they tweeted about the first patch tho thats why im checking their twitter
ye for information
Theres nothing on Akupara
It would be helpful if there was a place to directly send bug reports to the bug team for them to investigate
ok how are people getting this achievement on ps4, u cant even do any of the quest on expedition mode
0.1% of players have found a way
on the ps5 no one has
ps4 players are just better
If only Expedition and every other mode wasn't crashing every 5-10 minutes, might be able to get some achievements (please fix, devs)
Still waiting for patch 😔
i guessing their focus this week is their new game, so hopefully next week and after their prime focus will be fixing RW on consoles
thats why fancam #5 wasnt uploaded yet
Lol
i saw them and my first thought was "what in the actual fuck"
spearmaster one is my fav rn
I just had an awesome idea. I can get pikmin 4 digital because it has a double gold points deal which i can use to get a discount on downpour
This is switch btw
Yeah the fancams are a bit silly lmao
I love it tho
Great marketing xD
aint dp still on sale(asking cuz i got it on sale)
i preordered it on switch and bought it day one on ps4/5
I’m scared to download tho because of the save data wiping
it didnt for me on both switch and ps4, but i am redoing everything on ps5 cuz the save doesnt transfer
Hm ok
I guess if i didnt want to risk anything i could buy it after turning off auto updates
from wut i here if u do it on a save u dont use it can only wipe that save, i didnt do that it was on my main saves, but u can try that
Not sure how common this bug is anyway
Oh yeah ig so
But I don’t mind waiting because I’d rather have it on my main anyways
since ur only on switch, safari is busted cant do anything without it crashing, and expedition for everyone rn can't get any of the quest done except for like the 0.1% that did them all somehow
Hello i found out that they’re still investigating stuff, it just takes a long time to release bug fixes on console
the silksong of bug fixes
i'm just comparing everything that's taking a while to silksong now i have a problem
I mean that waiting is gonna waste a lot of time
genuinely annoyed at the memes on silksong and you irritate me by even talking about it this way. help me i still have no idea how to use jolly co-op, only one controller ever controls a slug and i don't know how to fix it
And youre just gonna torture yourself
Youre talking about me? 😢
ok
how do i fix this
step one: wait
what
most of the bugs have been reported already
that was one of them
all you can do is wait 😭
I have no idea, what platform you play on?
it works. i know it does. i just don't know how to do it
console..?
Which one
xbox
i believe jolly coop is super buggy on console rn
Well im on ps, i use that stuff called share play to play jolly coop with some friends, and it works perfectly fine
i want to do local
I dont have a second ps5 controller here… ill go get a ps4 controller and ill test that for you
needa wait till its fixed
it does work. i did a ton of attempts and at some point it worked but i haven't been able to reproduce how i did it since
wasn't there someone connecting a second player and it worked
Tell me the steps of what you do to play jolly
I wanna set it up exactly like you do
go to story. go to survivor. go to jolly co-op. set the players to two. set the second player to survivor. go to new game. press add player 2 to the game (with the controller i was using to set the last few things). select profile (guest account). skip cutscene. only one controller controls one slug
What character is player 1
survivor.
go to survivor
You can customize what slugcat you play as in jolly coop menu. What i understand "go to survivor" is let it on the survivor new game screen.
tbf i didn't say to change the first player. i mentioned changing the second player
You use custom colors? What type of camera? What difficulty? Also do you change any of the settings in the down right corner
They're some icons
Nevermind. Yeah that is happening to me as well so its a bug, it will be patched for sure
I dont know how you got it to work but it doesnt matter
I can look!
like the top of the superstructure
I have them all saved in screenshots!
In the day it looks fine, but i don't fully remember dawn/night, but i think it just turned orange and then black (like normal).
it was all green tinted
weird
i can try to make another save file to get there again, it'll just take a while
this was a few days ago i just haven't really thought about it
Safari might work, i'm sure cycles keep ticking there too.
i changed lizards to vanilla that's it.
oh is there a way to get up there as safari?
without moving through pipes since. that's broken
they sometimes work as the overseer
Just moving your overseer.
It crashes when going through pipes while in an animal.
it's still crashed a few times as the overseer but i'll try tomorrow!!
since it's one am
what is moons city is ths a spoiler 
i wish i could play above what i have but im gona wait until stuff is fixed to replay
but perhaps i should do survivor since i have to to get the dlc scugs back ? idk if it would crash on survivor since downpour added new areas
moon had a city on her structure like pebbles does
Its a lore spoiler
Soilers
Have they fixed the bug where your progress wipes
Nope
I will say ( area spoiler ) ||Pipeyard|| is a laggy
What console? On switch, I didn't notice much lag in VS. SB and OE were pretty bad, though
ohh i think i knew abt moon stuff
but i do know that ||moons involved in rivulets campaign somehow|| so i wa afraid it was spoilers
i will cry tears of joy when data corruption and/or crashes are fixed 
Wut scugs causes this, is it just ||arti in metropolis|| or others as well?
I'm having a decent bit of lag on the current PS5 version, notably as Hunter or just in certain regions
Still some audio issues too
Smth I noticed too is in settings it says v1.9.10 like the PS4 version but really it's on 1.04, although that seems pretty minor
Speaking of minor bugs, I've noticed that the little colored lights on pipes that show creatures traveling through them don't show up under water
@remote sentinel (PS4) Turning of jolly co-op fixed this for me.
jolly coop is really bugged on switch, it crashes the software due to an error in survivor
it might be the same for monk and hunter
Spear master is unplayable right now for me, stuttering and audio desynchronization whenever there are more than 5-10 entities on screen
Has anyone ever encountered a White vulture? Ive never seen it and i think thats a bug
no its just very rare
Damn
Dude i cant progress as Riv because of the freezing in The Rot, where is the goddamn patch 😭😭
switch?
- i didnt know and 2. switch is still a patch behind
also heres the white vulture thing
Have you seen it yet?
Only characters left for me to do are Rivulet and Saint : (
i havent yet cuz i stopped doing much on my main switch save and for my main ps5 save i have yet to redo everything, i'm just worried about the data corrruption, idk if its just an arti problem
Data corruption has never occurred to me…
it has happened to people on both switch and ps(dont know about xbox), i only seen them say its arti in ||metropolis|| none of the other scugs
Huh then i'm glad i stopped playing Artificer to continue the other campaigns because i am there and i saw almost everything…
I cant wait anymore
if its only in ||metropolis|| then maybe i could do the other ending first, idk if i have to get the echo there tho
theres still one other campaign tho
Yeah i know what it is, i got spoiled. Idk anything about the story though
And im trying really hard to not get spoilers of Riv and Saint
there is no story to the one i'm talking about its basically a meme campaign thats near impossible to do but can be done
Huh
How do you hide a word?
Like make it hidden so someone needs to reveal it
On my phone
Getting DP on switch for my bday tomorrow. Wish me luck 
|| than it on the other side not a lower case L
change ur save to a different one thats not ur main to hopefully prevent ur main from getting wiped
I have no main save thankfully. Was already wiped once but no biggie thankfully
Just hoping I can progress
when u do arti hold off on going to ||metropolis|| it can crash and cause data corruption, to my knowledge its only that
for some reason theres a graphical glitch with ||snow|| saint/riv spoilers
Oh yeah I think it’s just like that
For Switch at least
Cuz it’s not great at handling stuff
Or at least I assume
Are there any estimations for when the patch will release for switch? I’ve been very excited for downpour but seeing as there have been so many issues, I’ve decided to hold off for now.
i know someone who had it happen on spearmaster, not sure which area but on ps4
ive had the urge to play rivulet im so excited for it i hope patches release soon i wanna be water scug
still thinking abt getting on xbox bc i havent seen anyone say they got their data corrupted on it and im impatient... but money and also idk if it would be much different since its still console downpour
i really hope after today their main focus will be fixing their mess of a game on consoles, audio still dies after a certain amount of time, all audio dies when u do safari(switch still crashes), expedition is pointless rn, and u could have everything wiped if it crashes as arti and spearmaster, and some areas are very laggy
just found another person that had their data wiped but they didnt say which scug
if its this common of an issue i rlly hope they find a solution soon
oh i looked further into it it was artificer again
artificer seems possibly the most broken in terms of the scug campaigns grgrgrgrhrhrgrgrg
for the data thing mine got corrupted as arti
i'm playing arti on a different user on my switch and its working fine, why do i feel like this bug is as inconsistent as the bug that wiped peoples saves when they updated it
It happened on PC too
i think its everything on the one save like save 1
Yeah, there was something you had to do to have the save files convert to the right kind, before the patch that did it automatically
is this for when downpour is first downloaded w survivor data or data deletion after like during downpour scugs?

It's a remix thing
ohh
That's also the other thing, after remix, getting downpour is what led to saves being gone for others as well
It's so inconsistent what is happening
I also don't know if that was immediate or exclusive to the msc mod
yea it didnt happened to me on ps4 and switch
has anyone had any problems with rivulet or saint (besides the snow glitch)?
I never lost my save
Nope
I haven’t had any other bugs
have u had any bugs for downpour? what do u play on?
Switch
There’s been a lot of bugs but most I consider minor issues like the audio being weird
ohh yeah
Only big thing would be safari pipe crashes and heaps of stuff in expedition mode
And Pipeyard deleting your slugpups
oh i didnt even know abt that last one
I think you can fix it by passaging out of Pipeyard and they reappear but I was caring for a slugpup as Hunter so I can’t do passages
do u get lag spikes in ||waterfront facility||?
No
i have been getting them as both spearmaster and arti
I basically don’t lag anywhere
Even in places that used to lag me before dp like the room before pebbles chamber doesn’t lag me anymore
have u beat those campaigns?
the only room thats had a lag spike for me is ||a certain five pebbles room|| because of the amount of stuff on screen i think
irs not a big deal to me though
Oh yea I still lagged at a room between 2 DLLs because there’s like a billion neuron flies in it
something kinda weird to me is that when my game crashed it was always out of no where, like it didnt really lag or anything
it jus crashrd
same i was on switch playing spearmaster on my main save and it crashed twice in Gw for nothing
I always lag In rooms with the least amount of shit in it possible
/hj
thank god im both, i just checked on switch
is that a 2nd patch for ps4?
lets hope it wont wipe any data or corrupt it
"SFX fixed, safari crash fixes, general bug fixes"
This may be the patch
Expeditions shows the quests now
Expedition mode is no long pointless!!!! I can unlock Kayava now!!!
I don't have my perks though 
also from the regions menu i think they might have fixed the passage problem cuz im looking at shoreline and its shows to slugcats icons monk and survivor, so maybe passaging works properly now
switch still hasnt gotten the first patch yet tho
im aware
Late to the party
I did it first heheheha
when?
Sometime last week
I have the results of what happens if you go to a void worm on YouTube but I'll say it here
They'll still attach you as if you're doing a regular ascension ending and because there isn't the deep abyss below you'll die from being slammed into terrain too fast
ive done that as well, i also did it last week
Great minds think alike
Canon
im working on getting a passage with arti to see what happens to it in rubicons void sea, since the void worm doesnt help it
Oh true
Didn't know you can passage as Arti
Somehow Hunter is more imbalanced than the murder queen
The sound is fixed on PS4
Like 100% no doubt
Now all they gotta fix is that aspect ratio
i hope pipeyard pups being thanos snapped was fixed too
I saw it update on my ps5
lets go
So probably on PlayStation
expedition mode might be fixed!
Ye 😎
now i can find an excuse not to do challenge 70!
switch is unfortunately slow
my excuse is that switch doesnt have achievements so i do not care if i dont complete every challenge



Same
Holy moly new patch right now?
Whats Kayava?
The sound track
Specifically the one that plays in the eastern area with the shelter
Aspect ratio? Whats wrong with it? I dont see anything bad
It shrunk
I dont understand
nooooo spoil noooooooo
Lol found new bug: daddy long legs isnt hearing me at all
LETSGOOOO

Can anyone test this? See if dll is hearing you
i think i can maybe
but i only could in arena would it work there
also its like 2am but the patch has me so excited i might be able to actually play now

Im gonna send a video so you can see
alr
Its gonna be of riv ok?
alr!
i havent played riv yet but if its jus daddy long leg i dont mind
Its of a region
Pretty sure youre gonna know what it is
You really sure?
Like its not the region ending
Damn im making this difficult
ik something abt rivulet having ||lttm|| stuff so if its that i donr mind
No
hmmmm
Its fp
You know about it?
u can send idm 
nor really but its fine i think
as long as its not ending stuff i think
set up my ps4 but i just remembered itll have to update hopefully it wont take long


that video looked so insane to me bc i havent seen rivulet in game got damn the speed
Its not hearing me
ill test in arena
Brother long legs can’t hear
They rely entirely on touch
o
Why is it blue then
dude
In garbage wastes
Sorry for the spoil… it wasnt worth it…
But you spoiled!!!! Mega spoiled
?
😭
it fine 
should i apply cheats to have all slugcats or play survivor agaib
wait i turned the cheat off and i have gourmand, arti and hunter unlocked
but i havent beat survivor after data corruption
does the game somehow recognize that ive beaten it before or something im confused
i mean i guess ill take it since i dont have to play survivor again but this is so weird
Yeah idk whats going on
They still havent fixed the thing i was talking about in riv campaign : (
There still is freezing in the region
oh :-((
HUUH
I DIED AS GOURMAND AND IT CRASHED
i literally just got on and i already experienced a crash did they somehow make things worse
i guess it isnt safe to get back on 
im so upset i jus wanna play 
I've been playing as a elite scavenger but every time vultures get a bit too hungry and try eat me
Expedition works with the new patch for my PS4 players
If you've done the quests before it was fixed, just do a quick expedition and everything that you unlocked should be earned
This doesn't go for missions though sadly
Youll have to redo them
Crashes are hella frequent in this patch
nintendo plea s
y'all are making me almost glad I can't play anymore jesus christ
What was the ps patch for
i’m playing the PS4 version on PS5 and haven’t had a single issue aside from unlocks not appearing.
No like the first patch was a patch to stop safari from crashing when you change rooms
gotcha, safari’s the only mode i haven’t messed with at all
There was one today tho
please tell me how to do this

please Nintendo
please just give me the patch
I want to be able to actually make progress in Expedition
The patch on switch is expected to be released sometime after Silksong
So in a year then.....
No, in a year we get another teaser trailer with a nonspecific 2025 release window

im gonan cry tha was my biggest issue before GRAAAAAAHHHHHH
best song in the soundtrack imo
Even that’s being optimistic…
Wait really? Where did you hear this
I've been waiting patiently for the switch patch but I've gotten impatient enough to just buy the downpour dlc because I keep being spoiled about it
For anyone who doesnt wanna know anything about Saint, look away
There is no snowy terrain in the game. Look how different it looks like compared to someone else playing
Mine is the one where im at the top of the pole
It isnt only for this area
This happens in all other regions too
has anyone got their data corrupted after this patch yet?
what console r u on?
Ps5 but playing on ps4 version
I think its the same for every platform
ik ppl have had snow glitches but usually just the shape of the snow n stuff i havent seen thay before
Shape of the snow?
yaa wait i think i have an image
may have just taken this from the other chats abt bugs credit to @ / sage i think
jus very pixelated
Snow rectangles
yep !!
Well since the new patch on ps, its working fine
ohh nice
Its just the texture of the terrain now
is anyone else having frequent crashes on ps4 after new update 
had like one crash as survivor on ps5 so far
The crashes i was talking about yesterday are still happening
ahagsrhajrgjdjrhrgd
Just use passage and pick a place that’s normally unreachable for most scugs
They all show up in the region choosing thing
I'm gonna get DP for PS5 tomorrow but I think I'll wait to download it until everything is fixed. Hopefully soon 
Really don't wanna lose progress, I basically just 100%ed all three base campaigns in a few days
NOOO 😭
Does some one know anything about a weird cycle glitch ?
I have only right now encountered it with rivulet and am in five pebbles
When the cycle ends and it starts to go to rain time or maybe even before a little before it just freezes
This is Nintendo switch version by the way
There's still weird audio issues but they aren't ass crazy as last patch
im gona wait a bit to play again , or maybe until after a patch fixes crashes
plus it might be a bit too early to determine if data corruptions are happening bc it takes a whil to get to ||metropolis||
and the patch came out last night
i've been playing arti on ps5 for the ps4 version and its been fine so far
ok so i have both switch and ps4/5 versions so, when i was playing artificer it would randomly lag in ||waterfront facility|| on switch, but on ps4/5 it no longer does this, i will sacrifice my ps4 save to see about ||metropolis|| causes data corruption still, i'm not sacrificing my ps5 save cuz i dont want to re get every pearl as survivor again
another thing, can salamanders be orange, i have always seen them as white or dark pink
Idk
Its been lagging a lot in FP too
The fps drops a lot
Idk if its because im playing jolly coop or because of something else
jolly co op might still be bugged
Honestly never seen orange salamanders
well i have now i'm going to see if the wiki says anything
well found nothing except a white with orange gills but the one i saw looked more like the ones on the top
this is their color range
so i don't think they can
red though
then they must be rare as hell then
there is a little bit of orange in the color range so it might just be very rare then
has there been anyone reporting that the data corruption is still happening on ps4/5 after the patch?
If you have PS+ then you should be immune to this
if its the ps4 version you can copy the save data to a usb, which is wut i'm going to do before i go to ||metropolis||, so i can test if it still happens and i dont have to sacrifice my save
ive had one that was really orange before i rhink but only once i tamed it in arena mode
oh i actually found an image
yaa i cant afford it rn i wish it wasnt locked behind that
i may have to get it
if its the ps4 version u can copy it to a usb
oh fr?
yea i'm going to do that tuesday before i test if it still happens cuz i'm really close to finishing arti's campaign
instead of paying $60 u can pay like $10 if u dont have a usb yet
if i did get ps plus do u think its possible it has my old data before corruption
i think u have to upload it first (idrk i only had a ps5 for like 2-3 months and havent yet paid for plus yet)
ohh alr
but yea so in 2 days cuz i'll have access to a usb then, i'll test to see if it will still corrupt the data when you go to ||metropolis||
alr sounds good!
i was going to just sacrifice it today but i looked into the save data then i decided to just wait 2 days so it can be protected
also yea thats wut the one i saw in ||waterfront facility|| looked like
This update glitchy as hell
Music still ends before they're finished which is one of the bugs of all time
just updated to the newest patch on switch, and the issues dont seem fixed?
safari still crashes when going to a different room while controlling a creature, and the menu music still doesn’t kick in till going through the options menu
Yeah, i have the same problem.
Safari isn't fixed and music also isn't.
the only thing that did get fixed is the player select in arena problem.
guess safari will stay unplayable until the next patch lmao
I haven't really tested it yet, but sound effects do sound better?
ill try uninstalling and reinstalling
I'm testing with saint's cool "thing"
but it’s probably me just coping
It was normally sounding off a lot, but it seems to do fine now.
And the snow also seems fixed, YESSS!!!
rip minecraft snow😔
Lag in subterranean is also fixed (i think)
Okay, maybe the update didn't fix some of the more well-known problems, but i think it's a pretty solid one!
For me on PS5 in the new 1.0005 patch, the audio seems mostly fixed
I will not miss being jumpscared by glitchy, overly loud leapzard noises
I just got the switch patch but the music still isn’t working and my game still keeps crashing
im pretty sure ps4 got the patch and safari was fixed?
so im assuming this is a switch exclusive issue?
Probably yeah 
guess we’ll have to wait for the patch notes to find out
Is there a way you can view patch notes on switch?
no
we’ll have to wait for videocult or akupara to upload them on their site or twitter
i think they also upload them here on discord if im not mistaken
Ah okay
Switch patch fixes several graphical bugs. Music still doesn't work properly
Snow is fixed. Broken alpha effects on electricity spark is fixed.
Safari still crashes.
You can enable Player 1 in Arena Mode again.
What do you mean by the 2nd thing?
Basically the spark effect had a big black box surrounding it
Oh right
The transparency didn't work properly
My switch still can’t turn on played 1
why cant the funny silly lil safari mode not crash

You're on 1.9.09?
ye
The update reduces the game's file size by 900mb. You'll need to delete and redownload for it to remove the data properly though
Snow isn’t fixed for me either
I'd say redownload the game
Oh ok my game is updating now
Lmao.
Idk why it started that while I already started the game a few minutes ago
If you press + on the game on the menu it'll show the version number
My switch doesn’t seem to work like that
I have to look at the options menu to see version
They changed the version number to be the same as the ingame version number.
Which is good
They sent the patch for verification like 3 days after the update came to Switch
It just took until now for Nintendo to push it

They're probably already a bit into making the next patch
Hopefully
I'd say expect one around this time next month that'll fix most of the lingering issues.
Sound effects are still corrupted and weird.
I'm guessing it's a heavier issue to fix the sound related stuff.
Something probably went pretty wrong.
It seems in fixing the other graphical effects, they may have messed up the flashbang effect. I recall it looking correctly before latest patch.
I install the update, I enter safari, it gives me an error
One week waiting to play a mode, now to wait another week surely
I’ve heard multiple times from here that something about ||Artifier’s|| run crashes/ wipes save data?
Is that a high likelihood? Because im going up to ||5P|| rn
Are you sure it's fixed?
I thought it was still there.
Yeah I checked an area I knew had the issue and it seemed fixed
Perhaps some spark effects still have it
I checked Challenge 70
I just completed an expedition as monk, and when I exited the expedition menu I couldn’t access expedition or regions until I went to story then back
Pipe juking lizards makes the game very laggy
does the switch patch prevent saves from being overridden?
I don’t know about that for switch. I’ve been playing as artificer on switch and it’s been fine so far, just a few crashes in the late game area
I have dp on switch now 🙌
Havent downloaded though
I’ll play when its patched but in the meantime i have pikmin
i thought that box was intentional
Switch update is out !
Well that’s annoying that both the safari mode and music isn’t fixed
I haven’t gone into the game yet just reading
Massive saint heart secret spoilers (glitch?):
||I went to the the final area in saint and tried to find the heart, but the pipe leading to it doesn't have it's weird blocky "8" kind of mark, and i can't crawl in it.
Do i have to do something, or is this a glitch?||
Okay so for some reason I don’t have any sort of wind noises or like ambient background noises anymore?
I was playing as artificer and usually in her late game region you can hear the wind in the background but I literally can’t hear anything it’s just completely quiet
It wasn’t like that last update I think they’ve removed it by accident somehow
That was a problem already before too (i mean before the update).
To get music and sound effects back or at least most of them , go to expedition then jukebox and play a song
Gets music to play again and most sound affects
Okay I’ll try that
I did it even after the update and it works
I only say most sound effects cuz I heard other people say most lmao
I haven’t noticed much difference but Arti’s explosion jumps still cut out with it
It didn’t really do anything
Yeah I don’t know what’s happened because all the wind and background sounds were fine before the update but there’s just none for me now
IKR I have no clue
I’m reinstalling it
It’s just sad because I can’t really play it without the background noises, it’s just way too distracting because it’s like completely silent, no wind or rustling or anything
Cant believe how bad this has been, its still not fixed on switch! I could almost lol at the whole situation... there to busy announcing new games instead of fixing the ones they've already got... jeez🤦
Ok I’m trying it again now 
Yeah it’s still not working

I might just have to beg my older brother to let me play it on his pc 
It’s alright, I just hope another patch can maybe fix it 
It’s like my sound effects is stuck on volume 0 but I can still hear spears and general sounds just not any background noise like wind
Is the switch patch out yet...
i just got an update for switch version
what it do?
i know that it didnt fix my music 
sundown did not greet me when i opened up the game
expedition is still messed up...
safari still crashes the game when entering a pipe as a creature...
Lmao. Why release a patch that doesn't fix any of the immediately noticable issues with the game
im trying to check is sound effects are fixed
From what I've read, there are still issues with sfx
fun
I'm not going to bother testing until things that have already been frequently complained about get fixed
yep, not fixed
just had a case of the ol' conflux cyans
at the very least, they seem to be improved?
Is safari, expedition, or arena fixed? Im still waiting for mine to finish downloading
Yeah unless you got rid of player 1 ig you couldnt test it lol
The Arena thing is fixed
I accidentally broke it pre patch and it let me enable it properly
omgg thats so nice to hear im happy about that at least i no longer have to swirch profiles to play
From what I heard it only ( for Switch ) fixed the issue about not being able to select player one in a certain mode ( I can’t remember it )
All the other consoles the patch fixed more than one thing
Oh let's go I think this is a new patch
Ignore the bad quality I was kind of excited when I took the picture
YOOO FINALLY
i want to murder god
Never mind it didn't even fix half of the issues
Hey I can finally play sandbox at least
im gona test something
on ps4 my gourmand crashed almost immediately im gona die in the same room i died in and see if it crashes
if it does i will die in a different way
if it crashes then, i give up and wait until the next patch 
ok so wtf did this switch patch do because it didn't fix audio nor safari mode crashes 
pain
never mind i can play arena this patch is great
The audio works fine for me
Safari still doesn't work on switch
Well, I'll have to wait another week
lets go they also fixed the flashbang texture best patch ever
who even needs expedition and safari mode anyway 
(joke)
yeah unless you had/have sava data backed up with psplus it gone
did it happen with artificer?
ohh
yeah safari still dies
sorry that happened to u
i think when i see data corruptions its always artificer and/or spearmaster
but hey, it doesnt crash immediately anymore! now the crash happens when the room transition is supposed to happen, not the second you enter a pipe
also i didnt test this i tried to upload my old save data bc it had it from the day it corrupted , i got psplus hoping it would be it but i just had a 3 cycle gourmand and played on that
but hey atleast i can back up my current saves now
I’m upset. I just wanted to play Safari mode… :<
me too i just wanted safari :(
me too

Same I just want Safari
When?
_ _
Ah. Expect it in a little over a week.
For Switch
I look forward to, uh, replaying the game in the future and receiving a better experience.

This room in the Rivulet capaign in TR (I think that's what ||5P is now called||) freezes the game in a weird way. You still have sounds but you are frozen in place. You can still throw stuff. But they don't go anywhere, Rivulets gill stuff disappears and you can still quit to menu.
It happens everytime I have been there. This is the 3rd crash in a row. I tried closing the game and getting back and as well as just quitting to menu and trying again.
If you trying to get something, don't worry, you can still progress. It's not in that area. Explore the rest of pebbles and you’ll find it
And yeah its a bug
It happened to me as well
It's just my first time here and I just try to reach the man the legend.
but good to know that I will have to come back here...
Wdym
Well you said something about "if you are trying to find something" and "it's not in that area"
I haven't made it to 5P yet
Discard this
Its just when i was there i thought that i needed to pass that room to continue the story
But no, it was in another place
I want to see 5P since moon was worried about him. So that's what I am doing. Decided to not go through the wall.
Yeah i did the same thing
Well go there
But i'm sure 5p is in a place where these freezes do not happen
Nah the wall is EZ
So much easier than underhang and the rest
Genuinely I would rather do the wall 20 times over than go to the underhang once
Those orange lizards fucking suck
yes, but I only ever did 5p as gourmand and wanted to check it out with better mobility and now that it changed. but anyway, we should probably stop talking about it here, since this is a bug report channel
My save data corrupted on ps5 after it crashed while I died
I was playing as spearmaster. I was in the precipice when I got killed. As I died, the game crashed, and when I loaded rain world the console said that the save data was corrupted.
And all my progress was wiped
And I had to backup my data from the cloud
Switch finally got the patch
Safari still crashes
But the audio issues (as in Creatures Playing The Wrong Sound) seem mostly fixed
I haven’t had any cyan lizards make Memory Construct noises
Safari is still borked and the music won’t work without fiddling with the options slider
But it’s definitely better now than before
Haven’t tested expedition yet tho
all my background audio has disappeared with the new switch patch 
real the only way i can enjoy underhang is w arti
yeah unfortunately that seems to have become pretty common
it happens with artificer and spearmaster it seems, its good u had backup data though!
why do people hate underhang grappling worms are so fun
Underhang is pretty as well
The neon green sparks with the yellow lizards glow are so nice
I hate Nintendo, a simple update takes 1 week to verify
Nintendo is ,,, 
They’re awesome at making games but oh my god are they not great at everything else
Their merch is ok tho
The Nintendo one having slighty more glitches is atleast excusable since of course a handheld console isn’t going to be as good as one that’s 4 times the size
True true
That’s why I don’t really bother with most performance stuff like slight lag
If someone who knows more than me wants to @ me please do, I do like knowing when I'm wrong, and I'm drunk, but a 2d game like this shouldn't have as much lag as it does in certain areas, when plenty of other much more demanding games run perfectly fine on switch

also the data corruption bug needs to be brought to their attention, cuz this is the worst bug thats in this game, cuz having to redo everything cuz it crashed and it wiped everything needs to be fixed asap
Has anyone brought up the fact that switch likes crashing when there’s a shelter failure and therefore the areas are slightly flooded? It’s been doing that for me in my riv run because second cycle I immediately got a shelter failure.
I can’t wait for this a month later
6* months later
1 year* later
I just want to play as a noodle fly
you can you just cant go through any pipes
i bullied a DLL with a noodlefly that was in the same room earlier today
Does it crash immediately after you exit?
If I don’t wait a bit in the shelter so that the water drains on the outside of the shelter. Sometimes it will, yea
Other times I move through the pipe, and swim out some while it’s still flooded and it crashes
they were fine for my switch
woah where did you get these screenshots?
On ps4, really strange issue where the game refuses to create save data
This one thing doesn’t seem to have any root cause like a lack of storage space but it cascades into making the game essentially unplayable as the tutorial will infinitely loop and the remix menu softlocks the game
Can you tell me how this happens so I can avoid it next time it happens?
(IF it happens)
I got an update on Switch yesterday but I’m not sure what it did
Fixed snow and some other stuff and fixed player 1 in arena mode
Ah
Well hopefully they fix the audio and safari mode, cause personally the only crashing problem I have is sometimes when I passage
I played a bit of Safari this patch
Whoever added the "safari crash fixes" into the notes is lying
yeah no it's not fixed
Switch hasn't received the updates with those notes yet.
Wait a week.
Where do you see those patch notes?
Is it a built in PS4 thing
Big insane issue
This now happened to me twice
The game crashes after I hibernate and try to continue- at a random time for no real reason
And it corrupts the data
This got rid of my gourmand run that i was insanely close to completing
And now- it happened again and it reset my artificer save as well
I killed a whole lot of creatures that cycle so maybe it’s because of the points?
I’m unsure..but this is so unmotivating and painful
PLUS I’m using the third save slot
So maybe that’s the problem?
I literally cannot play the game
And I apologize for talking all messy
I've heard about save issues with Artificer. Weird.
I think it's because the creatures are simulated even outside of the screen, so in big regions with a lot of spawns there could be like too much interaction, especially if you double the spawns.
Okay, two ongoing bugs I've found, one for riv, one for spearmaster (ps4):
Riv - ||I don't know room codes, but the big room near the entrance to five pebs with the two dlls in the survivor Campaign is bugged. Enter that room and the game crashes. Thankfully there are other routes.||
SM - ||Spearing a small jellyfish crashes the game. Also super laggy near the entrance to waterfront facility||
if it helps, the co-op screen lets you recolour your slug just fine! the setting from co-op stays for single player
thanks!
did it happen while playing gourmand or artificer? and was it on ps4?
fr this issue is wayyy to common for what it is its such a big issue its happening to quite a lot of people (also its fine!
)
the only way to safely play the game is to have backup saved data i had to do that 
It happened on gourmand than I went to artificer and it happened again
ridiculous
that sucks im sorry :((
Hhhhh
this is actually the first time ive heard abt it on gourmand they need to fix ths so bad
Yess on console that’s easy to do but it’s so random at this right I have to backup save everytime I go into a shelter-
yeah its so annoying grgrgrgrgrg
ikr RAGH
RAAAAGHHH
I am a terrorist

i hatw how i had to buy ps plus to backup my save why is it locked behind that grhrhrgrhrhrgrhr
i might get on and experiment on safari bc the last time i played i think i got through a few pipes without crashes
Yeah same
But I think it still crashes
Like the sounds get messy after u use the first pipe
Man with the next dlc they better let us grow up as lizards and ascend or smth
that sounds awesome actually 
Okay to other chat we should go
yeag probablt
Wkdsknxw
they get rid of a bug that prevents saving at a certain point, now theres a bug that will just wipe ur save completely that now seems a little random
Yeah very painful
Mental Destruction
Is it a problem for devices other than console or is it just console?
i want to continue my ps5 save but i dont have plus to back it up, i can only back up the ps4 version via a usb
If that’s a thing for other platforms than it’s even worse for them
Because I don’t think..you can really make backup saves
GUHH..
and i'm trying to fill out the collection menu which getting all those pearls is a pain in the ass and i would like to not have to repeat that again
from what ive seen its usually ps4/5
idk if it happens on switcj and xbox but it might
i can see if it happens on switch via a different user but i would think this is just a console issue as a whole i dont think pc ever had this issue beside the monk red screen of death but thats fixed
ohhh
small glitch, but loading ||firebug eggs|| (saint item spoilers) into the joke rifle occasionally causes a crash, likely because slugcat tries to eat it and load it into the gun at the same time
Is expedition mode fixed?
I see the milestones tab and the quests tab?
(i haven't tested before, so they might have always been there)
everything but switch yes
Also, for those who are angry about switch being a couple of updates behind, and not being as good as an experience as Xbox or PS, i have something to say:
You are literally playing rain world comfortably on such a tiny computer, it's insane.
I am honestly really happy that downpour even plays rather well on switch compared to the other devices.
So just think about that if you're feeling down because of this topic.
Oh, i play on switch, so i guess i'll wait before playing expedition mode.
switch is just two updates behind( i play on switch and ps4/5 so i can compare the two to see wut is missing from switch
I'm really happy they fixed snow, it looks amazing now.
Before it was just weird blocky long stripes.
now they need to fix the data corruption
And safari, expedition, MLL crashing and audio.
But i think that's it though!
You can't really fix lag.
expeditions is fixed on ps4/5 and safari is fixed so well, it did kill the audio when u play it but i think its fixed now, thats wut the two updates the switch doesnt have yet
also the affected slugcats are (based on reports): Spearmaster in ||Precipice|| when you die; Gourmand(dont know where or how but heard it happened with him as well); and Artificer(the most common) when you go to ||Metropolis||, it can crash at any moment and wipe ur data
It could be optimized, like they optimized the maps with Remix's update.
*The region sub-menu.
u cant even earn the rewards, so if u refer to the wiki u cant get the rewards
They need to fix this, i was excited to do expedition, but it's broken.
Should i wait before playing it, or will it not interfere doing them already?
even if u do them, once the patch comes to switch u still dont earn the rewards, and they did fix it its just not on switch yet
You can. Depends on the circumstances in each game.
Yeah, I remember that before Remix the game lagged when a leviathan snapped it's jaw and explosion being much more laggy (on switch).
Some areas seem just inherently less performant in DP for seemingly no reason.
Given time the causes could be narrowed down and resolved, but it's not like there's much incentive after it's already been released, since it's already technically playable enough.
execpt when it crashes and wipes ur data
and safari is absolutely broken please.... i just want... want to be noodlefly...
its fixed, nintendo is just slow with updating it, its like two updates behind
i'm just waiting for the patch where it doesnt corrupt ur data if it crashes
Be careful playing artificer on switch guys cuz apparently there's a huge data corruption glitch
Is it worth it to get Downpour now on Switch or is it better to just wait for the remaining patches?
wait
Well it is on sale still, isn't it?
Save yourself some money. They should fix shit eventually
all thats fixed right now is that you can reconnect p1 in arena and i guess lightning visual effects are patched
all the other mountain of issues is still there
Switch: In spearmaster (haven't tried others), spearing jellyfish crashes the game. Probably already reported but I'm unsure.
this happens for gourmand and spearmaster to and happens also on ps4/5 and probably xbox as well
Same here, atleast the arena player 1 bug was fixed for me and game seems to run a bit smoother. Still have those issues with audio and safari
i played through all 3 and nothing happened
but it does happen i'm currently seeing if it will happen to me on switch as arti
so far of playing artificer in ||metropolis|| i have died so many times trying to get to the ||king scav|| cuz they sent the firing squad and i'm just going in between rooms killing them hoping i dont die and it will let up so i can move, i'm surprised it hasnt crashed yet
these two rooms is hell on earth i have spent the last 8mins nonstop going back and forth between rooms grabbing their spears from them and killing them
Update history
Go to a different save then go back to your main one
The entire save file was corrupted like in the- PlayStation storage
And..strangely
Both times it crashed and got corrupted I realized
It happened at one specific shelter
Jesus Christ
Or uhh..
Wait I’m so confused give me a second-
My bad!! I meant shoreline
I crashed in both gourmand and artificer there in that shelter
And the save file got deleted- but for another guy he was in ||metropolis|| and the game also did the same thing
Jellyfish aren’t supposed to be able to be speared in the first place- spears like bounce off of them
if they were pierced than yeah..
Well I think..i’m not sure if spearmaster’s spears can pierce them
They can be pierced now if you have vulnerable jellyfish on in remix
Ouhh
I’ve been getting that one too
I find it really funny
It’s both pierceable and unpierceable so the game explodes
All because of a wee jellyfish
i'm surprised it didnt crash with the amount of kills i got spent like the whole cycle time and went into night and no crashing at all
Arti rarely crashes for me, i must just get lucky
I had another crash exiting Moon above her in spearmaster. Just going up, not even throwing spears
Had no crashes in gourmand or rivulet at least
Ive crashed in moons chamber several times as well
just wondering has anyone every started from the bottom of this room and tried to get to the top
like to try to go to the top right exit from the bottom
Yes I believe I have
yea its really hard took me 3 spears and dodging scavs to get there
also has anyone seen an ||elite scav|| with a ||singularity bomb|| i havent seen one yet cuz i want to use one on the ||king scav||
I tried a lot and gave up
The right wall is spear proof apparently
Campaign wise I have never seen one
Singularity bombs only appear on arena from what i can remember, but you can craft them in story mode as gourmand
Elite scavs can rarely spawn with singularity bombs
It is not possible I think
Did anyone else have an error message when entering a big shelter with gourmand in ||outer expanse||
The lag in Subterranean as Hunter makes it nigh unplayable
I persevered somehow tho 
Oh yeah Hunter has lag problems in Subterranean
It was like that pre Downpour to be fair
At least on Switch
i just wanna murder everything as vulture in safari 
So Im playing on switch and Rainworld received an update there so I thought It fixed all the downpour issues but it didn’t. Does anybody know what that update did?
Fixed player 1 issue in arena mode and fixed snow and other stuff
Other consoles have had most of the fixes already but switch takes a long time for the patches to come through
Unfortunately
Ok thank you
I had massive lag in Subterranean on Survivor, so it isn't just a hunter thing
Subterranean is just built like that lol /hj
This game can seem unfairly punishing to new players as is, having to deal with 5fps on top of that is just.. ugh
Yo, my hunter ending crashed.
