Black screens when I play coop

[tardy creek]

Playing on the XBSX me and my friend are trying to play the dlc together and each time we join each other the coop partner screen black screens and they can hear audio but can't do anything else whiles the host can see them in the game but it still says trying to connect player to your world

Thanks for letting us know. We have seen this a few times. I have passed it onto the team for investigation.

Hey all, finally giving this my focus. I'm a bit baffled by it as we tested this, obviously. I'm wondering if you can possibly provide any info. For example, where did you try to connect? as in, where in the world? It MIGHT work if you try to connect somewhere else. also this seems like a strange request, but if you find yourself with time to try again, could you perhaps try dying or using a "return to beacon" item, so that the area you're in is reset, and then try connecting?

Also one other question, where in the world are you located? I'm wondering if your save data is formatted in a different language and somehow the xbox is choking on a different text formatting or something like that.

I'll try all the things you have ask to try tomorrow and inform you if any of these things let them join without black screening

hello! all that you have recounted, I tried it a few days ago. If you invite a friend in other places, nothing changes, even if you create new characters, nothing changes either. If you swallow a friend, and then the host goes and dies, then everyone will now have this black screen, and no one will move now, although the sounds of the game are perfectly audible. I don't remember if I used an item that returns to the point of rebirth or not, but I think it didn't work, since you are playing online. I also tried to invite a friend who doesn't have an Xbox series x, but an xbox one, and everything was the same. a friend connects, he has a black screen, he hears the game and hears my sword blows, but he can't move, and at this time I get a message that the player is connecting to your world. (I have Xbox Seies X )

Hey hey! Thanks very much for the feedback!

Actually I was able to track this down and fix it today. I'm currently creating new builds and we'll push them out as soon as we're able. stay tuned.

This is great new thank you

Wait so is co op could be available by tomorrow or is it fixed and able to play today.

[astral zealot]

Submitting to xbox will take a bit of time. Also coatsink will want to run it through their own QA. So tomorrow, unfortunately, no. Maaaybbee end of week, but realistically, next week.

any update on the co op. will it be ready this monday?
