Console Downpour Issues/Bugs (SWITCH AUDIO BUGS)

[stark rock]

Is it still wiped after you closed and reopened the game?

[silent lantern]

I think so yeah

Do you want me to try it again?

[stark rock]

Could you send another video?

[stark rock]

Sure

Also I forgot to ask what platform are you on?

[silent lantern]

PS4

[stark rock]

Does PS4 have Cloudsaves?

[silent lantern]

Yes

[stark rock]

What is your most recent cloud save for rain world?

I don’t have a PS4 so I don’t really know how it works

[silent lantern]

There is a console storage and a cloud storage. The console storage is your save on the console and cloud storage is a space to put that stuff and download it when you want to

If you upload your console storage it will go to cloud storage

Idk if you understand that, im not good at english

[stark rock]

I think I get it?

Are there any save backups you can access?

I know that Switch has cloud-save Backups

[radiant coral]

there's also a way to back it up to a usb but thats only for ps4 games(idk what the cloud storage looks like or if it overwrites saves when you upload them)

[silent lantern]

That would be the cloud storage, which has progress from 3 days ago, but i cant get it anymore since there is an option which auto uploads console storage to cloud storage and so i cant do that anymore

[stark rock]

Would you be able to send a video of what the campaign menu looks like now?

[silent lantern]

Like someone who straight up just launched the game for the first time

[stark rock]

Dang

I mean if worst comes to worse there’s cheats in the MSC remix menu that lets you unlock all campaigns, safari regions, arena unlocks, etc etc

[silent lantern]

Dude 500 hours into getting all of it legit

[stark rock]

Yeah it still sucks tho

It happened to me when I’d gotten every vanilla arena unlock when the remix patch dropped on console

[silent lantern]

I went as far to get all the unlocks like arena and even broadcasts

[stark rock]

Wiped everything I had on slot 1

[stark rock]

Ooooof that suuucks

I haven’t gotten around to getting all the broadcasts but I made Moon read all the pearls I could access as Spearmaster

[radiant coral]

how many backup are you allowed to have on cloud storage?

[silent lantern]

I have tried closing the game and reopening, didnt work. Now trying to reinstall it again

[silent lantern]

I dont really understand this save stuff too well, i dont know…

Theres no one available to contact

I think there is nothing i can do

[radiant coral]

is there a hidden way to activate dev tools like how you unlock inv, i'm losing my mind trying to go through ||vents||?

[stark rock]

I don’t think so

At the very least nobody’s found one

It isn’t on the mod list at all so it’s safe to assume it prolly isn’t doable

[radiant coral]

i feel like if i were playing on my ps5 save instead of my switch, the amount of times i died in the past 2 hours of trying to get past ||vents|| it would 100% crash and corrupt my data

[neon loom]

Found this really weird visiual bug where Rivulet's ||pokeball|| slowly gets more and more jank

It resets when you restart the game but not when you exit the campaign and play it

[radiant coral]

when i think about, they probably didnt add it cuz consoles dont have a mouse, even though they could still have it by having R3 to be the mouse when active, other games have done it before like chicory, fnaf sl/ucn, and oneshot

[neon loom]

On switch you can actually drag around creatures in arena using touchscreen

[honest ether]

You can???

[iron frost]

omfg that is so great

[honest ether]

I knew that touch worked for menu inputs. I didn't know it was literally just the mouse input lol.

[neon loom]

I like using it to place stuff in sandbox

[honest ether]

Ah right

I never tried that

[radiant coral]

omfg you can! i wish i could do this on my ps5 as well tho

[honest ether]

The controller input kind of sucks in that

Well none of the menus are good with controller

[neon loom]

Yeah touchscreen makes sanbox a lot more bearable

[honest ether]

So it's whatever

Oh there's some kind of weird half working touchscreen mode?

A touch button appeared to let me remove objects without pressing B using the stick cursor

But it doesn't appear anymore

[rare sedge]

Woah

A shame it’s not doable while switch is connected to tv

But that’s cool to know

[radiant coral]

i'm just flinging things into the sky rn

[stark rock]

What the hell is R3

[radiant coral]

the right joystick

[honest ether]

The joystick button

It should never ever be called L3 and R3 in an ingame prompt though

[radiant coral]

i wonder if i plug in a mouse to my ps5 if i could drag creatures in arena on there

[honest ether]

I wouldn't expect it to support it. But there wouldn't be a reason for it not to.

[bronze torrent]

Hey so.. i’m softlocked in my new Survivor file on Switch. I was originally playing jolly coop and thought it was a bug with that but, I got stuck on solo play too. I made it through the karma gate between industrial complex and garbage waste, but the game crashes when I enter the garbage waste. I’m too low karma to go back now, but when I try to go forward it crashes. I hoped it would be fixed in patch but still stuck 😞
Been waiting so long to play with my partner and it was going so well until then.

[terse karma]

If needed, in remix you can turn off karma gate requirements to allow you togo back and then turn them back on if wanted

[strange mauve]

Does anyone else have their expedition quests not show up? not sure if it's just me

[terse karma]

Everyone does except PS players because theynhave a patch that fixes it (technically not sure ab xbox but whatever)
But that patch might be pushed back because it causes data corruption due to having some sort of fail while saving occasionally

[final crescent]

Is there anything to do to fix this

[chrome eagle]

Okay

My save file just got corrupted

For the 2nd time

[strange mauve]

Yeah I've heard

[radiant coral]

idk what happened but i somehow got riv to go side to side on this pole without any inputs from me dont know if its really a bug or not but i find it to be funny

[radiant coral]

also how has anyone died to a ||mother long legs|| and it crashed and corrupted their data, it freezes my game besides me pausing it

[final crescent]

i keep getting massive frame drops

it makes the game unplayable

[honest ether]

On what platform?

[rare sedge]

That happens often

[final crescent]

switch

mainly in the ||outer expanse||

[rare sedge]

Has anybody had this glitch happen before lol

[honest ether]

??

Shaded Citadel overhaul

[sand gorge]

Is this in safari?

[strange mauve]

It happens to lots of players inculding me, I assume its because the switch can't handle as much data at once

[terse karma]

spawns have officially gone insane I just had a bunch of Yellow Lizards spawn here in LTTM as Spearmaster

[radiant coral]

on switch i only seen one as spearmaster and it done nothing but on ps4 on the ps5 as rivulet it happens a lot i cant even get the unlock for it cuz it freezes

[rare sedge]

Yes

[lavish juniper]

Almost lost all my data

see this is why I haven't been playing until the next update

[honest ether]

That's fair. Expedition is really not good in current patch so I'm waiting for that to be resolved.

[faint zephyr]

I have no idea how this happened

[fresh cypress]

RAIN

[terse karma]

NO THAT HAPPENED TO ME TOO
except mine just said AIN

[olive river]

RAIN WORLD RAIN

[terse karma]

Im doing an experiment in terms of the passaging to any place, as Monk I passaged to ||Rubicon|| with co-op and being Saint. Surprisingly it didn’t crash just upon passaging. Ive been debating whether trying to ||ascend|| would be idiotic or interesting, or a mixture of both. Either way, obv, this monk save is dead as could be, LOL-

[radiant coral]

R A I N

[tiny imp]

RAIN

[honest ether]

Has there been any patches dropped for PS4 lately?

[radiant coral]

nope

[honest ether]

Hopefully they're just taking the time to make sure every major problem is fixed.

[radiant coral]

from all the data corruption post no one has sent a corrupted save so they can investigate it yet so idk hopefully

[rare sedge]

[radiant coral]

what in the actual hell happened?

[rare sedge]

I exited out of safari mode

There was also this

And that

[radiant coral]

i'm trying to remember a more buggy launch but the only ones to come to mind is fnaf sb and cyberpunk

[honest ether]

Riv otter has been trying.

[radiant coral]

cuz this is up there

[rare sedge]

It started when I went to pebbles and he was naked for some reason and then going into another screen did all of that

[radiant coral]

i have been trying to help by getting mine corrupted but mine is acting like is perfect

[opal flicker]

uh?

I can't do quests

because there are none

[faint zephyr]

Usually you’d unlock then by leveling up but there’s a bug that prevents it

[versed matrix]

hey mates

I have to ask

where the bugs with downpour on console fixed?

my game crashed when I tried to enter a downpour region

and because of that I'm still afraid of playing with any downpour related slugcats and simply lose all my data

[versed matrix]

oh fuck I guess not

[cunning stratus]

same

no crashes here but lots of frame drops

[oak fractal]

This and the couple others you've sent have sprite sheets appearing in the background

I recognise them from datamining stuff

Looks like it's using the from texture files

[versed matrix]

frame drops also happen a lot

[keen dagger]

Have all of the downpour day 1 gamebreaking bugs been fixed on switch, yet

Music issues, sfx issues, broken menus, map issues, crashes, crashes that corrupt everything, all of that nonsense

[radiant coral]

music yes, sfx dies after a bit, don't know what you mean by "broken menus" or "map issues", crashes sort of, crashes that corrupt you data wasn't a day one bug it's a more recent bug that came in the 1.9.11 patch

[terse karma]

Which isn’t on switch

[short parrot]

Still buggy, atleast safari mode doesn't crash for me anymore, and the music seems fixed

[honest ether]

Music and sound has been half fixed.

Waiting on Expedition gate crash to be fixed.

Idk if that was fixed in 1.9.11

But it affects Switch at current.

Wait nevermind I think it was Jolly Co-op causing the gate crash.

[stark rock]

Expedition’s fucky quests being blank bug got patched in 1.9.11

Which is nice

Unfortunately said patch still isn’t on switch even tho it’s been like 2 weeks

[honest ether]

3 weeks.

I did Monk's expedition and it gave points and marked as completed, am I locked out of the rewards that was supposed to unlock?

[sand dock]

Found another bug unless it was said but playstation is in a bad state still like i get froze in ||depths rot||, lizards falling into floor and even crashes. Please fix it its just unacceptable to not fully bug check a game your gonna port

[drowsy owl]

I’ve been gone for a bit and saw there was a new patch for playstation, did this fix a lot or is there still big bugs.

Oh damn I found one already

All my region data for survivor was deleted

Except for SC and shoreline

Oh maybe it’s just for msg though il check

Ok it isnt, regional map doesn’t work

It shows nothing

[ruby pine]

Input lag ;-;

[languid anchor]

dunno, but there is an option to reset expedition progress, so that would probably fix it if you are?

[tiny imp]

It's a bug

Pretty sure switch doesn't have the update that fixes expeditions

Don't do any of the missions since they won't give anything once the update drops

You'll have to do them again if you did once the update comes

But for the quests, they'll be unlocked once you do one expedition after the update

[scenic lark]

I used a passage to go to shoreline as spearmaster and she is set in survivor timeline, and now i cant figure out how to leave shoreline or where to go if i end up leaving

[terse karma]

Spearmaster doesn’t have Shoreline. Spearmaster has ||Waterfront Facility.|| You have to attempt to get another passage, maybe leave to an unchanged region (shaded?) or restart the campaign

[scenic lark]

I got a passage, would going to ||the exterrior|| be a bad idea?

Yeah I'm just gonna have to delete 5 hours of gameplay, this version of the game needs some serious serious bug fixing

[terse karma]

The exterior is safe

For a list of future reference:
Spearmaster cannot passage to || Shoreline ||
Artificer cannot passage to || Shoreline ||
Rivulet cannot passage to || Five Pebbles ||

[radiant coral]

to add on to this, i think you cant passage to an area you havent been yet as that slugcat at least on the first playthrough, cuz it hasnt loaded it for that scug yet, like if you passage to exterior as rivulet before you go there or shaded citadel it might be survivor's version instead

[radiant coral]

cuz on the ps4/5 version it only showed what regions i been to as the scug(ex:rivulet like 7 cycles in can only passge to drainage systems, garbage waste,shoreline, and shaded citadel) thats how i'm basing the cant passage to an area u havent been to yet or it will be the wrong version

[terse karma]

Yeah ^^ so no ||garbage wastes|| or anything either for Spear or Arti because it’ll be wrong

[radiant coral]

well you can, just not before you hibernated/ been there at least once

[terse karma]

Yeah I meant to go WITH that sorry LOL

[opal flicker]

[switch] extremely low fps in challenge 56

[sand dock]

On switches jolly coop for survivor, the ||ascension|| ending seemed to move half as quickly for player 1. ||Swimming was slow, and the void worm pulled player 1 for seemingly way longer. The ending cutscene was also desynced from the music and crashed upon the musics completion, skipping the part where the tree shows up||

[tiny imp]

That's intended

Okay except the second half

[sand dock]

Are you sure? I’m a pretty experienced player and I’ve finished all 3 cats ||vanilla|| endings and none of them moved that slow. My player 1 was having a hard time getting past the ||void worms|| and I was having similar issues since the movement speed was way lower than when I finished survivor in single player

[near atlas]

do we know when switch patch will next be out

[radiant coral]

i just checked and it didnt update, also it might be a while before it does cuz of the data corruption that 1.9.11 brings with it so it might taken a week after 1.9.12 has been out on ps4/5 and xbox when they get it

[white phoenix]

nintendo is late on delivery

i wonder what the reason behind that politics, i mean when the devs are trusthworty why waste cycles and manpower for the checking validation

[faint zephyr]

Better than getting the patch first and risking data loss

[final crescent]

i just wish the random crashes didnt bring down my karma when i boot the game back up

[echo cosmos]

Going from SU_A37 to SU_B04 while holding a singularity bomb as gourmand causes the game to crash (apparently it happens in other rooms as well but not all)

[faint zephyr]

Know bug I believe, it’s not exclusive to outskirts either

[stark rock]

I kept having random crashes occurring in Subterranean while doing Hunter campaign as Rivulet

First one was in the pit room

Others were in the random rooms in upper subterranean

[radiant coral]

[stark rock]

A particular creature isn’t spawning even tho I have met the conditions to spawn it

Namely, the ||Hunter long legs||

Has anyone had this issue?

[radiant coral]

the steps are: 1. perma die somewhere; 2. go to where you perma died as hunter as gourmand. that should be it so if its not working then idk

[stark rock]

I did that

I think something related to either co-op or remix has made the ||Hunter long legs|| not spawn

I was doing co-op as Rivulet

I messed with the remix menu

[silent lantern]

Oh man i get so sad looking at these unlocks

[wintry rampart]

Does anyone else have trouble with ending their hunter playthrough on switch? It literally crashes everytime my character comes into contact with the void fluid it's insane. I can't even ascend
(posting this here also in case anyone else is also experiencing this and if there's a solution to fixing it, I have jolly co op turned off btw)

[drowsy owl]

rain sounds not working correctly. I cant really name it specifically but i dont think the right ones are playing at the right time. Like, I'm seeing the rain but it's only making a rumbling sound.

[gilded vessel]

Ok random thing but like on ps5 when I stay in shaded signaled for like id say like 30 to 20 minutes

The game crashed

[terse karma]

||HLL|| is still not spawning for me unfortunately:( i justt wanna see it

[stark rock]

Have you tried turning off Co-op and then PermaDying?

You can increase the amount of cycles Hunter starts with and if it gets you a positive number you can continue playing Hunter

It’s what the issue was for me

[terse karma]

Yes

I turned off co-op before starting a new hunter save

I decreased Hunter’s cycles to 5 and I speedran to Industrial and died there

I’m not sure if decreasing would’ve messed with it though

Then as Gourmand I speedran to industrial and went to the place I permadied, and there was no ||karma flower nor HLL||

so it’s not just ||HLL|| not spawning the ||karma flower|| doesn’t either (idk if that needs to b spoiled 😭 i know the item itself prob doesnt but idk if its stilla spoiler for permadeath)

[stark rock]

Maybe you need to restart your gourmand file?

I Perma died, disabled co-op, and restarted gourmand and that got my ||HLL|| to spawn

I had it spawn in the Garbage Wastes/Shoreline scav toll

[terse karma]

It was a fresh Gourmand file

Idk maybe the room is the problem? It’s the one thats right of the room after leaving Chimney gate room

or perhaps the way I died? I died to a pink liz

[stark rock]

Did you start it after dying in Hunter?

Or before?

[terse karma]

After

[stark rock]

Huh

[broken jay]

Have they fixed so you get back your savefile on the switch? Have been waiting since launch and downloaded my backup until they fixed it

[terse karma]

I think you should be set. Data corruption doesn’t happen on switch and if yiu’re talking about during the initial release everything getting erased idek if there’s a fix for that so might as well since you have em backed up anyway

[broken jay]

Yeah, Im talking about the initial release on switch for the DLC. When I started the game everything was reseted, including the collectibles :/

[terse karma]

I don’t think they can fix that if it already happened unfortunately

[honest ether]

If you restored a backup then you could try it. It has had a couple patches released.

[honest ether]

I see what y'all mean about the MLL freeze.

[honest ether]

The reason why the screen changes is because I did the inputs for entering that pipe. The underlying physics don't seem effected by the freeze.

In this one I navigated down to the pipe in the water while frozen.

[rare sedge]

My switch has an update ready

Nevermind it was just an update to the switch itself

[white phoenix]

pranked

[honest ether]

It's been a month with nothing.

[fresh cypress]

are there any issues with inv on switch?

just checking because i have an urge

[honest ether]

Works from my experience. Singularity bombs can cause a crash when moving between rooms so I've heard.

[fresh cypress]

hmmm

[lapis pewter]

I am literally going crazy.
WHERE is this damn update!?
I just want to play expedition mode and unlock the game's banger soundtrack...
Wow, this data getting corrupted really is a hard problem to fix it seems like.

[fresh cypress]

it be like that sometimes

[radiant coral]

[white phoenix]

let me do it for you

https://tenor.com/view/let-me-do-it-for-you-gif-27412761

[faint zephyr]

GIVE ME DOWNPOUR PATCH OR GIVE ME DEATH

[honest ether]

🔨

[onyx schooner]

playing as the survivor on switch in industrial complex, no lizards, centipedes or other enemies are spawning

the only things ive seen are batflies, karma flowers, and ONE hazer

and blue berries

gonna go to shaded citadel to see if anythings there

[lapis pewter]

I'll give you info about quasars, terraforming planets, and how to get rid of nuclear waste (and why it's a bad idea to shoot it into space)!

[radiant coral]

the rain timer doesnt show up if you play as saint in a jolly co op campaign

[stark rock]

I do wonder

Does it only happen if player 1 is Saint?

Or is it just if anyone at all is Saint?

[terse karma]

in my experience it’s only when Saint is the last alive if others arent playing Saint
Saint in general gets rid of the rain timer

[stark rock]

Is the color system on ps4 broken the same way it is on ps5?

Just curious

[radiant coral]

its when saint has control of the camera and no other scugs were in the room when they got it

[terse karma]

That makes sense

[radiant coral]

so if like hunter is in the same room and takes the camera from saint it comes back, if saint takes it back with them in the room its still there, but if hunter is in a different room when saint takes it, it disappears, i think its caused by saint's is different then the rest cuz saint has snow so it would count down for the blizzard instead, if the slugcat still has their reputation tied to them why not saint's timer for snow for them

[terse karma]

Well saint doesn’t have a timer in general for the blizzard, the only time saint has a countdown is in ||Rubicon||, and for some reason it just transitions whenever saint has the camera or is the last scug or whatever
But the last sentence majorly confused me so im sorry if thats not what you were meaning? 😭 i do not know what you meant in those last words you put together

[radiant coral]

guess i missed remembered it then, also what i meant in the last sentence was like a slugcats reputation carries over with them(ex: if you play jolly co op on monk as artificer scavs will murk you on sight as apposed if you were gourmand even tho in monk's campaign you start with a high enough rep they wont do that) so if that can carry over maybe saint's timer might have

[chrome eagle]

Got my save file corrupted for the 3rd time lmfao

This time on an industrial complex expedition

Guess I'm not allowed to play then

[rare sedge]

[terse karma]

Okay that makes sense yeah 😭 sorry lol

[tiny imp]

I've had that happen too

It's the same with Farm Arrays and Outskirts

[onyx schooner]

Same w me! Although shaded citadel, subterranean and (SPOILER REGION) ||Outer Expanse|| had the normal predators/fauna

Drainage system had no fauna though

[echo cosmos]

Saving in the leg with jolly co-op causes the game to crash

[sand gorge]

When it happened to me, it was because my friend was dead in memory crypt.

[wintry rampart]

Okay when is the next update

I know I might come off as impatient and I understand the amount of work devs go through to release patches, which is understandable, but it's definitely been over a month since the last one. The lack of communication with the console release of downpour and the amount of glitches and save datas that have been wiped is increasingly frustrating. Waiting for these updates while trying to get through the game, not in the fear of getting attacked by creatures or eaten, but by outside means like your game crashing or your save getting corrupted really sucks. My hunter run is literally soft locked at the very end of the game because I can't get through the void fluid without crashing. I just wish they were actually more transparent with us with what's going on

Woah really big paragraph but man

[sand gorge]

Wait, didn't it end your run?

Mine crashed after the last frame of the cutscene and considered the run as over.

[wintry rampart]

I'm on switch and the moment I come intact with the void fluid to swim down it immediately crashes

Come in contact*

[sand gorge]

The only thing weird I had with the void fluid was the void worm that spawned on me right after the first screen.

[wintry rampart]

I can show footage if you want but it'll take a while since my switch is under my house right now and getting through The Depths also takes a decent amount of time but I'm definitely sure it crashes everytime I get to the void fluid

[lavish juniper]

Again how they managed to mess it up upon release is beyond me that I'm wondering if there are playtesters or any tests at all

[wintry rampart]

I can't assume anything about the behind the scenes because game development is hard, but transitioning updates and dlc onto consoles and having it subsequently break your game when you buy it sure is something. There definitely needed to be more time, or at least quality control from the start

[neat tree]

I can’t go out of gate rooms without my game crashing

[radiant coral]

u have jolly co op on, that caused it to crash by not using the gates

[wet turret]

can i like
actually play downpour now

im on switch

[honest ether]

Yeah for the most part

Don't keep Jolly Co-op on if you're not using it since it causes some crashes and other issues.

It isn't fully fixed but general gameplay in campaigns is fine.

[rare sedge]

Although expedition is still basically unplayable

[versed matrix]

hey

is the game good to go now?

[rare sedge]

Yes

[versed matrix]

thanks

[sand dock]

I have also the Ps5 version and it only shows the remix but not the rest

[honest ether]

Do you have the DLC downloaded?

[open sage]

Ok am having a bug when I use the karma gate at sky islands to chimney canopy it crashes I also have a vulture mask, pearl, and spear playing gourmand help

[sand dock]

Yes i have

[honest ether]

Did it ever mention it detected DLC when you launched the game?

[sand dock]

No

[honest ether]

The Downpour version says PS5 and the Rain World version says PS4. Maybe that has something to do with it?

[sand dock]

Oh no i have the 5 version

[honest ether]

And you're launching that one instead of the PS4 one?

[sand dock]

I tryed it with both Versions and both not working

[honest ether]

That's really weird. I would maybe try redownloading the DLC or base game

[sand dock]

I did it the 3th time

[honest ether]

I haven't heard of this type of scenario on console before

The game version is clearly up to date since you have the Remix menu, but it doesn't detect your Downpour download.

[sand dock]

Me2 that's why I'm confused and struggling with it qwq

[sand dock]

Yes

[stark rock]

You redownloaded the DLC? Or the base game?

[sand dock]

Both

[honest ether]

PS4/Xbox gotten a new patch lately?

[radiant coral]

nope

[honest ether]

[faint zephyr]

Console players waiting 4 billion years for a patch only to get their save file corrupted once more

[honest ether]

I'm not even affected by the save corruption. I just want the latest fixes.

If the next patch comes out and it's only the save corruption then I'll be mega disappointed.

[rare sedge]

Hopefully soon

I wanna play expedition already and get rewards

[radiant coral]

we'll probably get silksong before 1.19.12 patch gets released

[lapis pewter]

Bro, what about switch?
They're still behind everyone, and it's not because nintendo is slow at releasing them...
I NEED EXPEDITION MODE
Indeed, i don't even care anymore about the save file corruption.

Last update was before the big bang bruh.

We've been waiting for so long .

[white phoenix]

true, hope they give more info when patches coming

[lapis pewter]

I know updates take long for console, but come on.
THAT LONG!?

[rare sedge]

I don’t mind waiting but yea having information regarding the patches would be nice

[lapis pewter]

I also don't mind waiting unless it keeps us from playing the full game.
(i mean expedition)
And also when it's buggy af with save corrupting crashes.

[normal atlas]

havent started other slugcats for this reason :/

[final crescent]

so apparently expeditions are just broken on switch

[rare sedge]

Mhm

[pearl pebble]

Not sure if it's already been mentioned, but playing as a miros vulture in safari causes the game to crash after a while.

On switch btw

[honest ether]

I think it's when you leave the screen as a vulture

The next patch fixed that but Switch has stalled the update because of critical bugs

[pearl pebble]

Hopefully the update comes soon

Did it fix the music not playing too?

[honest ether]

Music plays automatically

Sound effects are still screwed

[pearl pebble]

oh

[wintry rampart]

They're doing a whole bunch of unnecessary amount of time keeping silent about console updates for some reason, I know this may seem irrational, but it genuinely makes me worried that they might not be working on patches anymore

[honest ether]

Rivotter of Akupara Games is still getting info on Console Downpour bugs and corrupted save files in these threads. They're still doing stuff.

If I had to guess why it would take so long to fix data corruption then it would be them trying to replicate it, and then testing a fix afterwards for if it's properly effective.

Once they're confident it's fixed then they'll probably immediately push the patch.

[lapis pewter]

But that has also been taking an awful amount of time.

I'm not saying coding is easy or something, it's in fact not easy at all, but at least tell us SOMETHING about what's all going on.
Like seriously, it's been longer than a month, and there's still unplayable content on switch because of bugs...

[rare sedge]

Information would be very nice

[honest ether]

The bug fixing process is usually pretty mundane. And it's something you kind of can't always put a precise completion date on. They might just refrain from speaking on it because of the risk of promising something they might not be accurate.

[lapis pewter]

That's completely true, but there is always something to tell.
Whether it's just "We're working on it" or not, something would be nice.

[wintry rampart]

I agree, just acknowledging that these issues exist and that they're working on it would be enough. Thats what I was referring to, however it seems like the devs are purposefully leaving us in the dark to ruminate on this? I'm not saying that they actually mean to do this, but inaction (or in this case, lack of communication) sure does speak volumes

[lapis pewter]

Silksong also does this.
But the difference between Silksong and a rain world patch is that the former is an anticipated game, while the latter is just an update.
Being silent about a whole game, or a DLC that's popular, or anticipated has it's downsides, but generates extreme amounts of hype when a release date is announced, and is also an insanely good marketing choice when it works out.
Just keeping quiet about a patch is a whole different story.
Not only is there no real reason to not say anything for more than a month, but it makes people lose their hope real damn fast, and eventually move on (as long as they did everything else they wanted to do in the game).

I don't want to hate on the devs or anything like that, but releasing a DLC in a state like this and not saying anything after that is not a great move.

[versed matrix]

getting your files corrupted isn't that annoying

the only sad thing are the unlocks

[normal atlas]

it wouldn't be if there were a) versioning on PS5 cloud saves or b) backup to USB.

right now you'd have to turn off auto-backup and do it manually, which is annoying when you have multiple consoles to play on (is this the right save? or the other one?)

[versed matrix]

I had no backups when it happened

[neon loom]

audio is so broken in arena

[wintry rampart]

That's cool and all, but I hope you're not saying this as a universal fact for all players that get their save corrupted and just as an opinion

[radiant coral]

yea i just stopped playing the ps5 version all together in fear of it and one of my friends is starting rw for the first time and i told them they need a usb to back up their save if they want to keep it

[near atlas]

Still no switch patch?

[honest ether]

Once PS4 gets a new patch then we'll have a set date on when Switch will be receiving it.

[lapis pewter]

So Xbox also hasn't been getting anything?
Because you say ps4.

[tiny imp]

Wonder if they'll fix the aspect ratio in the next patch

[normal atlas]

I haven't seen anything about corruption on the base campaigns -- they could probably play those?

[radiant coral]

it happens when the game crashes when it auto saves so it can happen to any of them

[radiant coral]

xbox is at the same patch at ps, switch is the only one behind

[versed matrix]

I'm also not playing it, I don't want to speedrun unlocking the new slugcats again honestly

[radiant coral]

i stopped after finishing survivor and getting to the sky islands gate as hunter and that was when data corruptions started happening and i've been trying to get it to happen on the ps4 version apart from that i basically made no progress on ps

[rich geode]

I havent downloaded downpour switch in fear of it erasing all my data 😔

[neon loom]

Btw there's no death gradient in precipice

And there is one where there shouldn't be in ||struts||

[honest ether]

I believe it was the Remix update that caused the initial data deletions. If you have NSO and a save backup then there's no harm in trying it.

My data wasn't erased

Plus also it's been a couple patches since the DP launch. They probably fixed that specific issue.

[drowsy owl]

my game keeps crashing

i dont know if its just artificer ||maybe king scav mask?||

[near atlas]

I can't disable player 2 on arena at all

[rich geode]

Okay, I’ll see if I can figure out the save backup thing then and try it

Thanks

[neon loom]

Try disabling co-op

[drowsy owl]

coop is disabled

[urban nymph]

Make sure that the game and dlc are installed in the same place

[sand dock]

?

[rose burrow]

Is the safari even planned to be fixed or is it one of those things we just need to deal with

I'm glad they fixed the music

[rare sedge]

Safari mode was already mostly fixed

It’s just audio issues and game crashing if you fly offscreen as a vulture now

[honest ether]

That was also fixed in latest patch, but Switch doesn't have it at the moment.

[wintry rampart]

Being a rain world console player has never been a worser time, especially switch players

[rare sedge]

Meh I’ve enjoyed it heavily

The bugs haven’t bothered me much

I’m really happy dp came out

[wintry rampart]

I'm happy for you but the same can't really be applicable to me (had my save data corrupted, and now my hunter playthrough is locked in a constant crash state when I'm literally at the end of the run) or a majority in this channel

[rare sedge]

The data wiping some people have had is certainly an issue

[wintry rampart]

Dp would've come out inevitably, it's just how they released it in this state is the most questionable part

[rare sedge]

True

[wintry rampart]

I really don't like the fact that game breaking glitches outside of me or the game's control is making me view the game differently now and how I play it, that really shouldn't be happening in the first place at all

[radiant coral]

naw i think ps and xbox players have it worse cuz of data corruption

[wintry rampart]

Well I just had my switch data corrupted as well

[radiant coral]

did it give u the prompt that it got corrupted and how did it happen like what led up to it?

[wintry rampart]

Artificer campaign, I was revisiting metropolis and then my game crashed and kicked me out, now I'm trying to get back in the game and every time it just crashes when the loading screen comes up

So at that point my save might as well be thrown

Like loading screen when you boot up the game and image of whichever slugcat fades in next to the title

[radiant coral]

if u have nso maybe u can back it up from a older save, that is if you disabled auto-upload for rw only, also never heard of this happening

[radiant coral]

i hope 1.9.12's "general bugfixes" fixed data corruption

[tiny imp]

Hope it does

The aspect ratio still isn't fixed though

Kinda annoying

[nimble oak]

Someone tell me if you can fly to different rooms as a vulture now

[radiant coral]

i dont really see a problem with the aspect ratio it looks find to me

[nimble oak]

Without the game crashing

[tiny imp]

It wasn't small before Downpour so I don't see a reason why they would make it smaller

[near atlas]

Switch patch is on the menu yeehaw

[radiant coral]

well so far its easier to go to a different room in safari

[radiant coral]

nope it still does

also i think the gourmand crashing is the singularity bomb crashing

[rare sedge]

Awesome new patch

Surely the data corruption has been fixed now I assume

[faint zephyr]

We’ve been blessed with an actual announcement for a patch

Still nothing for switch though

[rare sedge]

switch is always behind the others

but now that the other consoles have gotten a patch that means switch will be getting some too

[radiant coral]

that is if data corruption is gone still to early to know

[rare sedge]

surely it has

[rare sedge]

wait

what happens if switch updates to .11

will it have data corruption issues until it updates again

[radiant coral]

i'm sure they will just skip to .12 if data corruption is gone

[radiant coral]

||MLLs|| still freezes the game

[stark rock]

No patch on Switch currently

[lapis pewter]

🗿

Why

[rare sedge]

Switch is always behind the other consoles

Because Nintendo is slow at pushing out updates

[lapis pewter]

Welp...
That's another 2 weeks of waiting.

I should be used to this by now, but to no avail.

[honest ether]

10 days

[honest ether]

What's wrong with the aspect ratio?

I don't notice any black bars or stretching

[stark rock]

I’d suggest using the two weeks of waiting to get the metropolis pearls read by Moon as Survivor/Monk

Cause when the patch drops you won’t be able to passage to normally inaccessible regions

Otherwise the only way is by randomly spawning in metropolis in an expedition

[faint zephyr]

You can get into metropolis through fp in expedition i thought

[tiny imp]

The game filled in the whole screen for me before Downpour but now there's black bars for me

[honest ether]

What platform?

[light hedge]

Help

My game keeps freezing

I’m in TR

and the game freezes

Except I can pause and exit the game

And effects like the ||MSR warping|| keep going

But nothing is moving

It happens at random

I need help cause the game is unplayable

And this was my plan for the entire day 😢

Because I have no life Rainworld is life

And it happened again );

Please help

[tiny imp]

PS4

[faint zephyr]

I believe it's due to the mll creature based on previous reports

[neon loom]

You can unlock them using cheats in remix menu

[versed matrix]

yeah, but you lose all your campaing progress

and it isn't as fun

[final crescent]

so

we uh

we still havent gotten an update yet huh

[honest ether]

We have

It'll come to Switch in the coming days.

[light hedge]

Yippee

[final crescent]

nice

[woven comet]

Do vultures cause lag for anyone else? Whenever more than 1 vulture or a king vulture spawn it causes the game to lag a lot

[formal plinth]

It lags for me as well, and the game also lags whenever there's too many creatures on screen. The scavenger toll in Outskirts started lagging for me after the .12 update, as well other parts of different regions whenever there's a lot of creatures or vultures are present.

[rich geode]

I just downloaded downpour, and my save data is fine. However I would really like to keep it so should I avoid metropolis entirely? Or, does the data corruption glitch only wipe the selected save file, rather than all three

[radiant coral]

1. it corrupts the save it was on. 2. data corruption can happen at anytime as any slugcat when the game auto saves aka dying or hibernating.; data corruption might have been fixed with 1.9.12 update but its still to early to know so i recommend having if your on playstation to have ps plus for if its the ps5 version, usb or plus for the ps4 version, switch you dont have to worry rn since its on 1.9.10 and data corruption came in 1.9.11, and idk what xbox has for backing up ur saves

[rich geode]

Thank you!!

[radiant coral]

also if its switch you have, get nso and disable auto backup save data for rw only, even tho switch is unaffected its good to take precautions all u would have to do is to remember to back it up

[tiny imp]

I completely forgot you can change the screen boundaries on Playstation and it literally solved my issue I'm so dumb

[honest ether]

Was it at like 99% or something

[tiny imp]

I dunno

[stark rock]

Is there anyway where someone could ask Riv Otter if they could make an announcement in the rw news channel when an update is out on switch?

[chrome eagle]

Did the recent patch fix the crashing?

[light hedge]

Help my game literally has 1 FPS

Real time this is unplayable

Legit 1 FPS

[faint zephyr]

No clue why that’s happening, especially in farm arrays

My best recommendation is restart the game

[runic slate]

Not sure why but sometimes now my fps tanks randomly

This has only been happening since the recent patch for me

[honest ether]

It does this sometimes.

[woven comet]

Waterfront facility seems to be the biome with the most lag for me
Today I started an expedition there and a king vulture made the game lag so hard it caused the game to crash and freeze the ps4

[lapis pewter]

This is literally so sad, i literally LOVED this game.
Like, i found it one of the best games ever.
And i was always waiting excited for the day downpour would come to consoles.
But after it came out, this game just didn't feel the same anymore.
And no, it's not all because of all the new content.
And, i would be lying if i said downpour was pretty bad on console, because i actually really loved it and found it okay for what it was as a port.
Though, after finishing it, and waiting for news, it finally hit me.
I stopped playing it about 2 months ago.
Everything i hear about this game now almost feels nostalgic, reminiscent of what it was before and after (in a good and bad way).
I really want to get back into this game, but i'm afraid.
Afraid that data will get corrupted, afraid that my map will not save or get deleted randomly and wipe out hours of work, afraid that one bug might break the game entirely.
And that's the sad part about all this...
I wish the best of luck to the devs.

[versed matrix]

yeah, after the downpour update everything was now 100% more laggy

[chrome eagle]

Gourmand progress wiped for no reason 💀

This game is extremely broken I'm just gonna stop playing until they fix it lmao

[faint zephyr]

Not a bad plan

[formal plinth]

Are the developers aware of the save file wipes and the lags that appeared after the most recent update?

[radiant coral]

save file wipes?

[formal plinth]

I read that some people are still getting their save files deleted even after the most recent update.

[radiant coral]

like how is it happening, is it data corruption or something else?

[formal plinth]

Some say that their data got corrupted and others say that their save file for some characters progression completely gets erased.

And also I noticed that in safari mode when you are controlling a creature (especially cyan lizards and caramel lizards) they fall through the ground. Not sure if this is a new bug or is a known issue for everyone.

[radiant coral]

its not new i had that happen before .12 but yay glad to know that rw on ps is still not safe to play on

[tiny imp]

I still don't know how the game went from a mostly fixed game to a broken mess

[honest ether]

I have a terrible feeling that Rain World may cease patch development and support because of what Unity is doing atm.

It wouldn't make sense to accept any new terms and take that vague flat fee per install just for console players.

Unless Unity backpedals hard then we're gonna start hearing devs basically forcibly being made to abandon projects and stop using the game engine.

[radiant coral]

what's unity doing?

[honest ether]

20 cent flat fee per install of a game using their engine

Your game could be free and use Unity

You as the publisher pay 20 cents per install anyway

Not even per purchase

The way it's worded makes it sound hella exploitable

[radiant coral]

sort of sounds like us the players would also fall under that to me

[honest ether]

Have to see if Rain World people make a statement. I think Unity wants to try and apply it retroactively, but I can't see it being legally enforceable unless the engine is still being used to work on a game.

If I had to guess then Unity might backpedal but then change it to a purchase fee scaling of the purchase price.

In which case stuff might just be slightly more expensive on average.

Which I'm sure would be a pain in the ass anyway, but at least not a significant liability for anyone who makes games in Unity.

[radiant coral]

maybe cr1tical, pyro, mutahar, or omni make a video on it about how scummy this is and make this more well know and hopefully they will backpedal

[honest ether]

People already are.

[white phoenix]

i think rain world isn't made with unity

they use Futile and use unity just as a rendering engine
the new rule might not apply for them? maybe? (atleast for rain world)

[lapis pewter]

If expedition and crashes are fixed, i'll hop back on in the game.
I was really excited for it, and it's still not playable...

Is the PC version stable too?
It's definitely more than console, but are there also annoying bugs there?
I've seen some pretty bad ones (including data wiping) in there with steam tags.

[rare sedge]

there are but a lot of them are fixable i believe

although most issues are from people using mods

[lapis pewter]

I guess they really are that busy with the console ports then.
I haven't seen many bug fixes for PC yet.

[neon loom]

Is expedition fixed in the new patch

Doesn't really matter to me, I just started saint like a month after it released

So hopefully by the time I finish saint the new patch will have happened

[honest ether]

Expedition was fixed in 1.9.11, so when 1.9.12 is out on all platforms then it'll be fixed.

[radiant coral]

welp i finally got a video about the unity thing in my subfeed and the ceo of unity is a greedy scumbag, the same ceo that said battlefield should charge $1 every time a player needs to reload their gun, and the faq is very vague; idk if they will backpedal but i hope they do

[neon loom]

So many popular AAA games use unity that it's going to face a whole lot of lawsuits, it's pretty likely they will backpedal

like the ceo's point of view is

[lapis pewter]

The changes are happening on the 1st of January, so that's at least better than no time i guess?

But yeah, this change is awful.

[honest ether]

It's a 3 month heads up for people who have spent upwards of half a decade or more making their games.

[lapis pewter]

I hope Unity will remove this fee...
What's it with these companies these days!?

Btw, are the Xbox and PS versions more stable now?

[honest ether]

I heard they had lag issues

From latest patch

[mortal spoke]

The lag is a bit annoying depending where you are and how many mobs are around you

By the way, is someome having trouble with the custom colors for vanilla game? Im trying to change the survivor colors and i only have black, white and red as options

[rare sedge]

MLLs still make the game freeze for Xbox and ps I think

[radiant coral]

yep, that was one of the first things i tested when 1.9.12 came out

[tiny imp]

I wonder how that happens

I never had any issues but I do get crazy lag sometimes when they're in the same room as I

[wintry rampart]

I'm glad they're working more towards bug reports now, it took them awhile to say what they needed but I'm glad there's going to be some actual progress with all these console bugs

[sand dock]

i bought it on the launch day and still working fine 🗣️

[rare sedge]

That message is from 2 months ago by the way

[sand dock]

i know

[lapis pewter]

Does anybody know when switch will get an update?

Or think they know? (i don't mean this in a bad way)

[rare sedge]

we assume it will get updated once the data corruption issues on the other consoles are fixed

[rich geode]

Hey has the passage anywhere as any slugcat glitch gotten reported btw

[lapis pewter]

I thought it was fixed though with the new update?

[honest ether]

They said nothing on the patch notes, and recently put out a form you could fill out with information to do with the corruption.

[left thorn]

just installed the update. was multiplayer fixed? can't tell. it's been awhile since i tried

[lapis pewter]

Damn, i don't think the save corruption bug was fixed yet, which also means they might still not give the switch version an update until they've fixed it.

[tiny imp]

If you're on PS or Xbox, it should be gone
If you're on Switch, just wait a couple years

[keen dagger]

Switch is still not fixed?

[keen dome]

im using a laptop and it just keeps crashing randomly

[lapis pewter]

No, my guess is that they want to fix data corruption first.

[lapis pewter]

Have confidence! 😤

[radiant coral]

yea just wait 5 years for them to move everything on unreal engine or anything that isnt unity then 3 years for them to fix data corruption on ps and xbox then 2 more years for the update to go to switch

[lapis pewter]

Come on, have hope!

[honest ether]

Unreal Engine 5.3 Lumen Nanite Rain World port.

[lapis pewter]

I bet by January 2024, it has been fixed and ported to all consoles!

[radiant coral]

ray tracing 4k 120fps rainworld

[honest ether]

Almost no developers are going to convert their games. Stuff like Among Us can because it's relatively basic mechanics wise, and they already have all their assets.

We'll see by Tuesday if 1.9.12 was put up for verification for Switch, since it should be out by then.

[lapis pewter]

Yeah, changing it means building it back from the ground up, which might cause some features to differ.

[honest ether]

That's how Rain World itself was made earlier in development.

Doing that again but from a final product with DLC and everything is a different story however.

[lapis pewter]

Unity really is causing mayor inconsistencies...

[honest ether]

I doubt the Unity change will cause a profit deficit in Rain World's case. It's one of the more expensive indie games if I had to say.

Though it definitely breaks the incentive for putting it on sale.

[lapis pewter]

I really hope the regional slugcat map problem will be fixed by then.
It should be, right?
It's directly linked to passaging to wrong regions, and that was fixed.

[radiant coral]

the unity ceo is incredibly greedy so i wouldn't be surprised if he does something really shady to get more money out of everyone to where it would cause a profit deficit

[rare sedge]

i do wanna play expedition mode and get rewards

i just needa be patient for switch update

[lapis pewter]

Yeah, same.
People say that it might come out on Tuesday.

[sinful cobalt]

I was playing a hunter challenge thingy and for some reason white lizards randomly get bugged out and become glowy

[nimble oak]

Lantern lizard

[lapis pewter]

I don't want to be hopeless, but i don't think an update will arrive today...

[honest ether]

Yeah I've seen nothing.

[hazy solar]

Me neither

[sinful cobalt]

Im going to be happy when expedition gets fixed

[white phoenix]

[opal flicker]

yeah, white lizards do that sometimes

[languid anchor]

man
why switch so behind on patches
every week or two ill check back in here only to find out that switch is still on 1.9.10

[rare sedge]

i assume its because of the data corruption issues they dont want to update it

[short parrot]

Salamander and eel lizard still bugged in water, audio still kinda messed up along with music

[languid anchor]

i just want to play expedition

[short parrot]

That was fixed in the last update for me, sucks if it didn't get fixed for you

[stark rock]

It was fixed in 1.9.11

Switch is still on 1.9.10

[short parrot]

Mine was though so idk

[astral lake]

Since the last patch lizards just lag my game a ridiculous amount

So challenge 35 is almost impossible

As well as quite a few others

There is more lag with all creatures to an extent but lizards drop the game to such a low gram rate

Never had this issue on downpour release or without the dlc

Anyone else seeing this?

[desert lance]

same but i dont have dp

[astral lake]

alright after some attempts it’s not quite impossible, but each 2 minute attempt takes about 10 minute

[languid anchor]

im not gonna lie part of me questions if console was even playtested before release

[short parrot]

Judging by the bugs probably just wanted to push it out, then finish later.
Didn't bother trying the challenges as I can already tell they would be absolute lag fests.

on switch atleast

[rare sedge]

I’m on switch and never lagged in any of the challenges

Actually theres very little lag at all for me anywhere in the game

[lapis pewter]

Really?
The low gravity lizard challenge definitely lags hard, and regions like ||Outer Expanse|| also lag in most parts (in my opinion).

[honest ether]

OE gets to like 5fps depending on the circumstances

At least it did at launch.

Though I have no reason to believe it improved.

Gourmand had a lot of lag in general

Some areas just tanked performance

Sky Islands was also pretty bad

[rich geode]

Switch player. Lag was fine for me mostly, exception being ||metropolis|| which was veery low fps the first few cycles but calmed down later, now it runs fine

But even before downpour, hunter subterranean lagged the same way. So idk

[lapis pewter]

Indeed, in some other downpour regions too.
Everything's fine until you reach 1 room, and then it lags horribly.
What's even weirder is that the lag is literally just always in those rooms and sometimes just randomly elsewhere.

[vast flicker]

I've noticed the lag is heavily related to entities! Any large groups of creatures and the game struggles. This also makes it worse in larger rooms since there's more creatures at once. OE has many large rooms, sub with hunter-level spawns is also awful. The game usually goes back to normal in smaller rooms with not much going on!

[wintry rampart]

Falling off of rain world while waiting for the bug fixes is honestly one of the worst feelings because I still want to like the game but the outside circumstances around everything has made me not pick up the game in over a month

[languid anchor]

im convined they didnt actually playtest switch, there is literally no way they could have missed all the audio issues otherwise

like
complete lack of music and messed up sound effects

[honest ether]

All console platforms had those issues iirc.

It was just generally an unpolished release.

[ebon phoenix]

It’s been almost two months since last Nintendo switch patch…

[stark rock]

It is kinda unfortunate

I just hope that they haven’t forgotten about us switch players

Honestly at this point I’d risk save data corruption if it just meant I could progress in expedition

[blissful crater]

Switch user
I think I'm lucky enough to not have as much issue with lag as other people do. Even then I'm quite used to it when it comes to games I've played, my main gripe is the sudden crashing of the game.

Mostly on the hunter run, and in garbage wastes. I can't continue with my run at all, as Everytime I try to got through a pipe from the region gate it crashes, and I have to restart the campaign only for it to keep doing the same thing afterwards.

[honest ether]

Just some transparency, frankly. In the post saying an update was pushed to PS4/Xbox One just have a little,

*We will push a Switch patch at a later date after critical bugs have been resolved.

[woven comet]

Rivulet crashes whenever you leave the drainage to garbage wastes karma gate

[honest ether]

Did you hibernate in the gate den before attempting to then leave into Garbage Wastes?

If so then disabling Jolly Co-op should fix the issue.

[woven comet]

OK I'll try it

[sand dock]

Saint goes away.

[crimson rain]

uhhh

there’s a huge problem with my game rn

is rivuelts story just normal like you just ascend into the void sea

because fp is normal

[tiny imp]

Huh

[crimson rain]

idk what’s going on with my game 😭

ignore the low quality

I’m in the normal story mode btw

[tiny imp]

Oh yeah that's not supposed to be happening

First time I've seen that reported here

Did you passage to Five Pebbles?

If so, then that's the issue as he has a unique region by that time

[crimson rain]

I did. i was annoyed at losing my karma 😭

do I have to like restart my whole entire save now

[sand dock]

If you haven’t sheltered yet

I just left 5P, went to wall, sheltered, went back in

And it was fine

If you did save

[crimson rain]

I reset my game

[sand dock]

It might be too late

[crimson rain]

[sand dock]

Dang

[crimson rain]

I’m so unlucky

[faint zephyr]

Next time passage to underhang or the wall near one of the two gates

[knotty hill]

ah so i wasnt going crazy thinking i was hearing things when playing on the switch version.
we love the audio randomizer 🤡

[woven comet]

I'm not sure if this counts as a bug but red centipedes and blue centipedes can't enter like 90% of the tunnel things in safari

[mortal spoke]

Im about to lose my shit, i was doing the spearmaster route and my game just corrupted :))))))

I sent the form to the devs but oh my god im SO not happy with this

I really liked the game and i didnt mind putting up with the massive drop of fps mas losing all the data for a second time like this surely made me lose the hype for it, esp being this far in the history

I wish there was at least some way to unlock all the slugcats at once with the ps4, i dont think i have the energy to replay 4 routes again to get where i was

[tiny imp]

There is

Lemme find it rq

Yeah it's in MSC and Cheats submenu

There you can unlock all the slugcats and campaign completion + food quest unlocks

[mortal spoke]

I was taking a look in the game before that, but i didnt see any option for it in the ps4, at least it wasnt obvious to me

[tiny imp]

You gotta press on MSC and there's a menu for it

[mortal spoke]

Lemme just find out how to delete the corrupted save first, or else the game wont let me touch anything

Ok, i found it

[mortal spoke]

Thank you so much, you are an angel :'/ i was losing it

I thought id be forced to replay all the stuff, though im still sad that i lost all the progress

[tiny imp]

Atleast there's a bandaid fix to it but honestly it's like wrapping up a rabid bite wound with a piece of writing paper

[mortal spoke]

That is true, i loved to see the characters ending images in the menu

I had plans to revisit some characters to see what i could do with the finished story, but i guess i will just replay artificer when i get in the mood for

Because damn

This isnt the first time it crashes, but the last one i was using survivor

[tiny imp]

If it doesn't reset your collections, I recommend doing that considering the circumstances

[mortal spoke]

I didnt get anything in the collection yet, i was first just doing the story to focus in the lore details

But now i unlocked everything out of spite to read, im just not gonna spoil myself on spearmaster and saints routes until i finish everything

[tiny imp]

Okie dokie

[languid anchor]

no switch update?

[faint zephyr]

Not yet

Love how this post is more popular than the pinned one

[languid anchor]

data corruption only occurs on the save slot that is being played on right? so if i was playing on slot 2 and my data corrupted it wouldnt affect slot 1 or 3?

[amber pecan]

I think so

[radiant coral]

is data corruption still happening?

[lapis pewter]

Yeah, otherwise they wouldn't be asking to fill out a form to pin down this problem.
It seems like this is a tricky thing to fix.

[amber pecan]

mainly because it's hard to tell where it's coming from

something not working right (e.g. lizards not biting or something) they'll have an idea of where to look (in the lizard code), but file corruption can't be pinned down easily

[radiant coral]

ain't it an issue with auto-saving, cuz majority of the time its when you die or hibernate and it fails the auto-save, so could they go into the code for saving the game (idk if it like that i know very little about coding)

[sand dock]

So does anyone else just find slugpups, and then even if you feed them, they disappear when you shelter?

[tiny imp]

Switch?

[radiant wigeon]

if you look at the map (with slug senses remix on) are they still in the shelter just out of bounds?
i've had this happen to me a few times and i've always either moved a few rooms over and let them clip back in or reset the cycle and it seems to work for me

[sand dock]

Yes

[sand dock]

They are simply gone, whenever I first find them I don’t even get to see their food pips, I don’t think it registers that I have found them, I also think it only happens to me when I’m doing hunter campaign

[tiny imp]

I know what you're talking about. Good news, the next patch will fix it. Bad news, don't know when that'll come. I'm assuming you're in Pipeyard when this happened as this happened to me twice

Your slugpups will be somewhere in the map when you spawn

Somewhere close

Hold on

If you're in Pipeyard and rested in S01, your pups should be in the rooms that are marked with some blue on it (A14, C02, A05, D01, B07)

These are mostly where I found them pre-patch on PS4

[sand dock]

Thank you

I will try and find him

[sand dock]

I GAVE UP AND WAS JUST GONNA KEEP GOING

I FOUND HIM ON THE WAY TO SUMP TUNNEL

THANK YOU

[tiny imp]

Oh I didn't know they'll go THAT far whoops but yeah good thing you found your child

[honest ether]

Oh interesting.

I didn't know the glitch was them basically wrong warping to the incorrect room.

I thought they got outright deleted because their little food bars disappeared along with them.

[sand gorge]

Same, R.I.P the slugpup I found on hunter, I guess.

[eternal edge]

HEY ERM i was doing expedition then i perma died and restarted the expedition, but then i went out and my saves had disappeared, luckily when i closed it and opened it again they were back but is there any known reason why that happens? cuz i would like to avoid that happeneing again it gave me a fright

[sand dock]

I don’t know what causes that to happen but it’s happened to me too before, mine happened when I left on the first cycle

[eternal edge]

i left in the first 30 secs after restarting cuz i was in farm arrays LMAO

[ebon phoenix]

I also had same thing, it just happens randomly when you interact with expedition menu

[eternal edge]

is it permanent ? or just a visual thing

like cuz i DO NOT wanna risk corrupting my data lol

[ebon phoenix]

Rejoining into story select menu fixes it

[eternal edge]

i see

[ebon phoenix]

Game prob just forgets to use safe file lol

[eternal edge]

so the data is safe right ?

damn

[ebon phoenix]

If it’s 1.9.10 then very likely yes

[terse karma]

It’s visual, I finished a experimental survivor file and then glitched experition, went imto the “new game” part, and it just loaded the save rather than restarting the game
Atleast that was the case for me when I tested it out on another file

[sand dock]

Playing through all the challenges on switch, Stygian depths crashes the game a lot

[neon loom]

so uh is data corruption really this hard to fix? I just want to play expedition

[stark rock]

I mean part of it may be that until recently they haven’t had the opportunity to look at people’s corrupted saves

So they couldn’t tell what was happening to said saves

[neon loom]

oh ok fair

[eternal edge]

when was the switch edition of rw last updated :0

[rare sedge]

Months ago

[eternal edge]

oh

man i wannna play expedition soo bad but i am so scared

[sand gorge]

Expedition does work, you just can't get the rewards.

[tiny imp]

Yeah

So you can do it and you'll get your rewards as soon as the new update drops

However, don't do the missions

You'll have to redo them when it drops

Wonder how that got passed playtesters

[ebon phoenix]

It seems like the game wasn’t playtested at all

[lapis pewter]

Yeah, tell me about it...
All the obvious glitched stuff on release should have normally been seen IF the game was playtested.

[short parrot]

still no patch for switch

[radiant coral]

nope

[solemn pecan]

Man, I really want to play exploration mode...

[radiant coral]

u still can u just wont get any rewards i'm alright with this cuz i rather have no expedition rewards than data corruption

[long knoll]

They need to fix the audio bug (again)

[sand dock]

Are the devs aware of (on switch. ) if you throw a spear at a jellyfish your game crashes

And the room withh Miros birds in subterranean , if you take a video , it can crash your entire system.

[faint zephyr]

Yes

[faint zephyr]

I couldn’t find any previous posts regarding miros birds on switch, so probably not

Go ahead and make a report

[sinful cobalt]

Pov jellyfish gets payback for being killed/j

[faint zephyr]

most powerful creature in the game

[tiny imp]

There's still performance issues on PS4. A few baby centipedes were in the same room as I and the frames dropped to 10 fps

[mortal spoke]

Is there a way to deal with the frame drop? I tried to start saint and it was just impossible to do so

[eternal edge]

help i dreamt that the switch patch was out and i was so convinced it was out today 😭

[wintry rampart]

it has officially been over 2 months since the devs have last patched the console release of rain world

this is, kind of really absurd no offense. I thought the release of the Google forms for reporting rain world save data corruption would help speed up the process but I guess it's still been pretty silent overall. I respect the devs and understand the amount of work that goes into console porting, but at this point I feel like most of these bugs in the console releases could've been easily preventable if they didn't release it so soon or just play tested more.

This is like the third time I came in here and criticized their way of handling the ungodly amount of bugs in the console release.

[honest ether]

I definitely didn't expect that in October we would still have a disfunctional Expedition Mode and corrupted sfx.

On Switch, at least.

Though the fate of PS4 still sucks.

[ebon phoenix]

The scav rep is also kinda buggy at times

Sometimes you instantly get chieftain for no reason and sometimes you can’t get it at all

[tiny imp]

There's still weird audio bugs and performance issues on PS4/PS5 which is honestly kinda embarrassing considering my poopy laptop can run the game better

[faint zephyr]

Their lack of communication is by far the worse offense

[neon loom]

spaghetti code

[keen dagger]

Never thought I'd still be coming in here months later still hoping for any sign of a significant patch on switch

We might get Silksong before RW becomes playable on Switch tbh

[opal flicker]

lol you wish

[wintry rampart]

Agreed.

[wintry rampart]

its genuinely upsetting knowing that the switch update isn't behind because of Nintendo postponing the update but because of the developer's choice to just, not release it yet? again I'm sympathetic towards game development as a whole but with them putting the time aside to share news of rain world merch and live streaming on twitch its making me assume, just from I've seen now, that they've been slacking on the bug fixes instead.

[wintry rampart]

It's not something I want to assume but this is from what I've seen and these actions (or more so inaction towards fixing bugs) speak louder than anything I've seen so far

[runic slate]

Luckily vanilla rw has none of the bugs that dp has by turning them off on the remix menu so i can still enjoy the game until they fix the frame drop issues

Its literally the only issue i have had to deal with now after they fixed the sfx and music bugs at launch (i have no clue how tf i didn't get a single data corruption when i beated every slugcat )

[tiny imp]

Real

[wraith dirge]

i think the cause of that is because it uses the rep in that cat's campaign as the default rep in expedition but doesnt account for any rep changes done during the campaign so if you had 100 scav rep as gourm, gourm expeditions start with 100 scav rep

[rare sedge]

True

[lapis pewter]

Damn, is there really no guess to when the update will drop on switch?
I mean, yeah, after fixing data corruption, but when is that!?

It's sad because rain world was extremely stable and without too many glitches before DP, but it's also not fun to have no DP...

[opal flicker]

tomorrow🤑

trust me

[vast flicker]

I just had data corruption for the second time, hasn't happened in ages. It was more specific this time than just erasing everything, only expedition (which I was playing) was corrupted, all my campaigns were fine somehow! Luckily I kept backups on a USB too. Wish I could send the corrupt file to the devs to help out but I don't have a way to right now : (
I hope they can figure this out eventually

[frail dew]

I was playing jolly co-op on ps5 and after we got through a karma gate, the game froze and i had to restart my ps5 manually. I don't know if that was a ps5 issue or a rw one.

[radiant coral]

theres a google form u can fill out that might be able to help them

[vast flicker]

Oh yeah that form! I'll fill it out when I get a chance

[wintry rampart]

im genuinely so tempted to just go, "screw it" and just @ one of the game devs

because seriously WHAT IS EVEN GOING ON OVER THERE that warrants over 3 months of waiting for console bug fixes, I'm genuinely curious and they still haven't given us (straight to our faces, or even directly) any reason why it is taking THIS LONG

[wintry rampart]

Also I'm well aware that @ing one of the game devs can get me in trouble so I'm obviously not doing that, but if I'm self-aware enough to not do something obviously stupid--then I think the staff behind rain world should also be self-aware how increasingly bizarre it is to wait this long for big fixes right?

[radiant coral]

they did go 5 years without fixing the glitch that prevented saving at a certain point so maybe they aren't self aware of it

[oak fractal]

@lone willow done for you lol

there's no response on fixing the superstructure fuses as well

despite multiple threads on it

[wintry rampart]

but in those 5 years there were significantly less people that worked on rain world than now, from my perspective, there really should be no excuse for the amount of inaction and lack of transparency that has been happening lately

[wintry rampart]

I honestly salute you for @ing one of the devs, that's a lot of bravery, praying you don't get banned for this also tho. thanks for taking this, you're a real one 👍

[faint zephyr]

Riv otter isnt a developer, but a community manager which is probably the appropriate person to ping

[tiny imp]

Paying any type of money for a package that's riddled with bugs is insanity

I know it hards to update stuff on console, but radio silence ain't the best way to go

[plush cove]

I bought ps5 downpour on Saturday without knowing about the issues, I think I'm gonna ask for my money back.

[tiny imp]

You can't refund it because it Sony's policy

[white phoenix]

they still doing stuff

my guess is they prepare a multiplateform patch

[wanton arrow]

Rip to the slugpups I had when I decided to shelter in pipeyard

[vast flicker]

I'm guessing you've denned since then? It's actually possible to find them again afterwards the same cycle if you're lucky! But yeah pups and pipeyard do not mix. I'm a bit disappointed I'm currently unable to get the wanderer passage with pups around : (

[wintry rampart]

Can I ask where you got this from?

[white phoenix]

Steamdb

these are dev depots for testing builds before publication

[lapis pewter]

How do you know it's for console/all platforms?

[white phoenix]

i dont know, its a Intuition + the long awaited patch for switch

[lapis pewter]

[wintry rampart]

Isn't that for the steam version for rain world then? And isn't steam only for pc, this looks significantly worse for them too since they're more focused on fixing bugs on pc than console--which is even more insane

[plush cove]

I've kinda resigned myself to just owning the broken dlc, and will have to quietly look forward to maybe being able to play it one day. Titanfall 2 will have to do in the meantime.

[wintry rampart]

At this point ive assumed that the devs haven't been working on the bugs and instead been focusing on something else, doesn't help that they also released a completely new trailer for a new game they're working on their YouTube. this honestly leaves a bitter feeling in my mouth, now I just wish I could refund the dlc at this point. If they're not going to fix it then I don't want a broken product ruining the base game that I originally enjoyed before downpour came out

ugh

this really, honestly sucks

[faint zephyr]

I wonder, if downpour hadn’t released on console yet, would it be in a better state?

[oak fractal]

Well yes

There's stuff already fixed

The question is whether it would have been in a good enough state to be launched by now

[faint zephyr]

I meant would it be better right now if it weren't released to the public until now, compared to the state of the game now.

Comparing a theoretical release date to right now, not the theoretical release and actual release

[oak fractal]

That's what I meant as well

[faint zephyr]

When you said this I thought you weren’t

[oak fractal]

They've definitely fixed stuff that could have been anyway if they postponed the console launch

So objectively it would have been better

But it clearly is not in a good enough state currently

[wintry rampart]

I feel like the obvious answer would be yes, if it was actually given the proper time to actually be polished, perhaps there wouldn't be so many issues in the first place. However it's clear either waythat they rushed it out or somehow botched it along the way.

[wintry rampart]

and yet 3 months after the dlc's initial launch there are still a lot of bugs left that need fixing that the devs seem to not have touched

it's so baffling to me that somehow paid dlc breaks an already stable enough game with even more glitches

[tiny imp]

True

[lapis pewter]

I'm pretty sure videocult handles the PC version while akupara games handle the console versions.

[rough oxide]

To my knowledge, Videocult's involvement with this game ended in 2018, when they released the original Switch version/1.7 patch on console. (Monk/Hunter ending slides)

Not sure if the MSC team is still working on the PC version, but IIRC the console ports are worked on by a different team. (Akupara Games)

[wintry rampart]

I thought Akupara was just the publisher, if I could get some sort off source for this that would be pretty nice. And the game devs who worked on the console ports still need to fix the bugs anyways, and I'm pretty sure some of them are in this server right now

[honest ether]

It's pretty typical for these sorts of publisher deals. It just makes sense logistically. Well, on paper it does.

It can lead to scenarios like this though.

Where a port is released with a lower quality standard and with few communication.

If Videocult wanted to port it themselves then they'd need to get development hardware and software for each platform, and that doesn't come with familiarity and experience with porting processes for each environment.

[rough oxide]

It's not the first time either, Rain World hasn't had a good time with porting in general.
It took over a year for the 1.5 update (Monk, Hunter, new creatures) to make its way to PS4, even though the game originally had a simultaneous launch on PC/PS4.
In that case, the original porting team (Warp Digital Entertainment) folded out of the blue and a new one had to be hired.
See James Primate's second reply in this old Steam thread:
https://steamcommunity.com/app/312520/discussions/0/1618346571420919201/

[honest ether]

Oh that's you.

No wonder you'd remember this post.

[radiant coral]

dont forget it took 5 years for them to fix the glitch that prevented saving at a certain point, so i wouldnt be surprised if it takes years to weed out the remaining bugs

[wintry rampart]

this would make sense--if other indie games originally released on pc and ported to console just fine wasn't a thing, like I certainly understand the reasoning, but rain world shouldn't be an exception to lower quality control porting (not saying that you are advocating for this in your post, but I'm just pointing out that quality ports of indie games exist out there and far outweigh the poor quality ones).

[wintry rampart]

That is a huge yikes, I have no idea why this game has such a poor track record with updates or bug fixes (well I do after reading the link about one of the updates but still) but it still genuinely sucks having to wait so long for something I bought with my money to be fixed.

[wintry rampart]

No offense but I don't think a glitch that prevents saving in the small portion of the pretty large base game is comparable to an entire mode not working in the game because of poor development and a rushed release date. oh and also the data corruptions for many players invested in the game-

[radiant coral]

ik i'm just saying it seems to take along time for themto fix a bug like that so i wouldnt be surprised if it takes a really long time for it to be fix and possibly no news of it getting fixed

[tiny imp]

$15 dollars btw

Don't forget to buy the DLC for a downgrade in performance lmao

[white phoenix]

you can anticipate now

[sinful cobalt]

Spoiler for Saint but uh a weird thing that happens in expedition sometimes when it resets your data before it does it shows the saint exclusive area and I wonder why

[radiant coral]

the 2 frames per second universe

[lapis pewter]

Yeah i've had that too on switch.

[formal plinth]

I'm not sure if this is a known issue already, but every time I control a Vulture, King Vulture, and Miros Vulture in safari mode, the game crashes when I fly offscreen. Is it just me or did it happened to you guys as well?

[vast flicker]

Yes I've noticed that too. I don't know if it's been mentioned before

[tiny imp]

Its been mentioned ever since DP came out

For console

[fast marlin]

hello

it has been a while

im checking in again to see if the save data corruption issue on ps4 has been fixed

[honest ether]

Don't think so.

It'd be the first platform to get any new updates

Looking out for 1.9.13 I believe.

[fast marlin]

alright thaank you!

[oak fractal]

There has to be a way to properly get in contact with them

[tiny imp]

Maybe if we can, the progress will go by .01%

[eternal edge]

question; on switch does expedition have a risk of data corruption or is that just the ps4 vers ? i know you don’t get your rewards cuz bugs but honestly i’m desperate to keep playing this game so i just wanna know if i can do expedition with no risk even if don’t get rewards

[tiny imp]

No risk

For Switch I'm sure

Once you get the update, doing one expedition mission should give you all the rewards you were supposed to unlock

But you'll have to redo the missions

[rough oxide]

To my knowledge the update that fixed Expedition rewards on other platforms also introduced this data corruption problem, which is probably why the Switch update got postponed

[sand dock]

rain world has a history of publishers not really allowing updates

willburd, one of the level designers for MSC, made several changes right after MSC released, and it took 3 months for those changes to get added

[white phoenix]

how is the game on xbox btw ? i was scared of save corruption

so i stopped playing and did back on pc ( i also had one achievement bug with echo visit after FP)

[radiant coral]

sure its the same as playstation

[opal flicker]

maaan i want the expedition to get fixed),:

[honest ether]

No Expedition for the slug.

[faint zephyr]

Maybe we should ping rivotter to see what the heck is going on

[tiny imp]

Publisher issue

Don't think that'll work or they'll say what I said

[oak fractal]

Rivotter is part of Akupara

[tiny imp]

O

Whar

[faint zephyr]

And supposedly the community manager as well

[sand dock]

isnt buddy the community manager

[wintry rampart]

wasn't the entire reason why videocult changed publishers was exactly because they didn't have control over when they released bugs and extremely delayed updates?

[wintry rampart]

if they're having these exact same troubles with another publisher then it seems more to be more of interpersonal problems rather than outside sources causing it

[white phoenix]

I don't think it's anything to do with the publisher, they wait until they've fixed everything before releasing a big patch, I think. I've already read devs saying that console manufacturers don't really like games that update too often, maybe that's why.

[tiny imp]

3 months sounds like enough for an update

[sand dock]

it is

definitely the publisher

they took several months to tell people msc was a fan made mod

[wintry rampart]

honestly I'm just going to @ riv here and see how it goes because the lack of communication about bugs (again, this more than the third time they've done this) is just seriously getting annoying at this point

[white phoenix]

they said so and even made an official announcement on the steam page

[wintry rampart]

Like I don't care if it takes them more time to fix the bugs because I've stopped playing rain world in over a month I just want some news about the current progress so far

[white phoenix]

from a marketing point of view, it's not a good idea to mention it, it can make people wary of buying a product they might consider "amateurish" and what's more, deep down people don't care, they want to know about the additions, what the dlc brings and whether the dlc is good or not.

[wintry rampart]

no offense but I mean make an announcement here. In the discord

[white phoenix]

Personally, I can understand why there's no mention of the fact that the dlc was made by fans everywhere.

[wintry rampart]

Not on the public steam page where everyone can see it but literally in a server where a majority of fans have already bought the game

[white phoenix]

they made one

https://steamcommunity.com/app/312520/eventcomments/6670425060416512542?snr=1_2108_9__2107

[wintry rampart]

Then again there's a thing called dev blogs on steams that almost always talk about progresses of current bugs and update seperate from the main page that I don't think the existence of would even hinder the marketability of a game? Your line of reasoning in my opinion, makes no sense.

[wintry rampart]

I think you're confused, I was talking about the devs handling of bugs in this thread--this link seems to lead to more of a random rain world related thread if anything

[white phoenix]

oh i was talking about that message

they took several months to tell people msc was a fan made mod

on the other hand, it would be nice to know the status of the next update, whether it's in the pipeline, how long before it arrives, etc.

I understand your impatience

[wintry rampart]

@lone willow can I ask how the current progress of bugs on console is going so far? I'm aware that one of rules is this server is to not @ important staff here, but the lack of communication about progress and long periods of silence has been frustrating as a rainworld fan who plays the console versions of this game. At this point, with so little news and updates given to the rainworld console verions i've assumed the worst outcome has happened which is something I don't want to think in the first place, any pieces of news and assurance would be nice. Thanks in advance if you end up responding

[wintry rampart]

my mistake, didn't see the message above before you quoted it

[wintry rampart]

honestly at this point it isn't even impatience anymore, there's only so much I can try to rationalize the devs going radio silent on just bugs during this three month (almost four now) time period before I've given up. I really don't want to assume the worst, but I don't want to be a pushover fan either

[lone willow]

We are working hard on the next patches for consoles. I don't have an exact timeline for the next patch as they have to pass submissions and stuff. Consoles are not as easy or as fast to apply patches as PC they have to pass submissions for consoles and each consoles has their own set of rules to pass.

[wintry rampart]

thank you for responding and informing us further about the current status with bugs, if it's not too far to ask (since I understand some questions can't be answered if managed by contracts or other miscellaneous reasons) then can I also ask how come the first two relative updates for consoles were sent consistently correspondent back-to-back while the current console bug fix is taking longer than the last two ones? I'd like to know further about the details of the timeline, but it's understandable if it's a disclosed thing with staff

[lone willow]

So I don't think I can give an exact single answer. I will say that our focus over the last months was tackling in the console save corruption and trying to nail down the cause of that. Which is why I asked for community members to talk about if they ran into the issue to talk to fill out the google form last month. We have been working with that and focusing on the data sent from the community and working on developing a patch.

[mortal spoke]

Ive filled the form when i lost my saves. Im not sure if this is the case for everyone, but for me the corruption happened when i died constantly in the same spot and made zero progress

Playing constantly for a few hours and dying in the same spot during it seemed to make the game realize i couldnt go to a negative karma

One as survivor in vanilla and another with spearmaster once i bought the dlc, both with similar situations

Idk if it helps

[zinc berry]

Are you working on a performance fix? In some locations (Shaded Citadel) the game is simply unplayable! I've been waiting for two months already to continue playing and writing an article about the game.

[tiny imp]

Not just Shaded, just having hunted on is enough to make the game freak out

[faint zephyr]

I honestly haven’t had many performance drops

What console are you guys on? I’m on switch

[amber pecan]

I'm on switch too

and while expo perks and burdens seem nice, I'd rather not have data corruption

[ebon phoenix]

I played on switch too, the most problematic regions in terms of lag are: outer expanse, subterranean, metropolis and waterfront complex. The most laggy from these for me is outer expanse lagging in like 80% of all rooms

[ebon phoenix]

The reason why you didn’t have performance issues might because you somehow avoided these laggy parts of the game.

[faint zephyr]

No, I’ve visited practically every room, but now that you mention it, OE was particularly laggy, but it wasn’t necessarily bad or unplayable

Except for the ||joke rifle in FP|| challenge. That is kind of painful to play, but it’s just a challenge so I’m not too bothered by it

[tiny imp]

It was more prevalent in the latest patch on PS4

And PS5

Also Subterranean is always laggy idk how

Even before Downpour it was like that

[oak fractal]

This might be due to people either playing on the OLED version or not

Or even an older version

[honest ether]

The OLED Switch? There is zero functional differences between the model variants.

[oak fractal]

Ah mb

The earlier versions still have a difference, no?

[honest ether]

None, basically.

Consoles are manufactured to run under set performance profiles.

So they don't have a performance difference unless specified otherwise.

[oak fractal]

No they definitely do, just searched it up

[honest ether]

Newer Switch consoles have a more efficient processor but it runs at the same clockspeed and just has better battery power.

[honest ether]

You may be looking at overclocking examples.

The updated processor has a higher range of clockspeeds, but none are used and software developers are only limited to the default options.

[oak fractal]

Hmm ok

[final crescent]

has the game been patched yet

[tiny imp]

Lmao

[amber pecan]

trust me, they'll be a lot of rejoicing in this chat when that happens

[neon loom]

I'm glad I'm playing on switch for once, it must suck not being able to play at all instead of only not being able to play expedition

[zinc berry]

PS4. Performance is very bad.

...endless wait for a patch

[white phoenix]

i didnt had any issues performance yet on series s (only did survivor), but the console is very good in term of performance (wonder if its at 120fps)

[amber pecan]

I think rain world runs at a max of 30 fps

could be wrong

[tiny imp]

I wasn't worried about data being deleted. I'm more worried about the 1 frame per second I experience when playing the game

Do not let there be more than 5 batflies on screen

[faint zephyr]

Batflies: the most powerful creature in rain world

[zinc berry]

Lantern mouses

[tiny imp]

For some reason, lantern mice are affected by Hunted so they'll keep going in and out of the room you're in

[white phoenix]

30 on switch and old gen possible yes

but i doubt ps5/xsx/xss run the game at 30

[honest ether]

Frankly it's kind of hard to tell due to the nature of the slow movement pace of most creatures, and the static camera positions.

[fresh cypress]

i think ive been encountering a bug

(arti soilers) ive been encountering this thing in expedition where when i get to ||the scav king room the mask isnt there||

resetting the cycle fixes it

but its still a bug, maybe

||unless a scav stole it lol||

[amber pecan]

could be that

[fresh cypress]

never know with those guys

[oak fractal]

That can't happen

[fresh cypress]

yeah i thought so

[ebon phoenix]

Is scav king mask even spawns as arti in expedition? I heard it only spawns there as slugcats that cant normally access that region

[neon loom]

is there a fix for the audio issues

[tiny imp]

Nope

[fresh cypress]

it does

[sinful cobalt]

Saint spoiler uh my game just glitched and killed me excuse me what

[fresh cypress]

you can send the videos to your phone
