Hi, I've been playing the game (version 1.0-935) for almost 40 hours and there seems to be a recurring crash bug on XBox series S. During normal play, the screen will sometimes freeze during transitions or when I bring up the inventory screen. It freezes and kicks me back to my console menu; I lose all progress for that day.

It's not possible to replicate because of its random nature. It could happen twenty minutes in or three hours in. I really do love playing it, but the constant cut-outs after clearing my console cache and reinstalling the game have proved fruitless. I hope it's fixed, soon. I really want to play more, but it's too frustrating to deal with entire days lost to a bug.

Yeaah, for me every "two days" (in the game) my game Crash too... And always at night 😭😭

It can happen at any time for me. I take a deep breath when opening my menu at times, worried if this'll be the one that crashes my game and I need to start the day over. It's the trepidation that gets ya.

I've seen this to. It crashes when opening the inventory.

Now it's crashing more consistently when entering the museum. It's gotten to the point where I have to hoard my donations and wait for that big update. After 10 donations, you can work around that crash with the "I'm Stuck" option. Not ideal, but at least you don't lose inventory. After the Pickstarter Campaign expansion, you don't get that option. Insta-crash on entry. 😡

#

So: Inventory screen freeze and museum post-expansion entry are causing the most crashes.

Hi everyone. We apologize for the inconvenience and thank you for the report. Can you tell me what activities you were doing before opening inventory that causing the crash? 🙂

Absolutely. It seems that the most consistent crashes are opening your inventory and the museum. Again, the inventory bug is the hardest to reproduce due to its random nature. Just opening it normally can cause it. I give it a 50-50 chance, maybe?

The only 100% crash is the museum, post-expansion. Every entry kicks me back to my console menu. There's no way to salvage it with a 'I'm Stuck' option. Other crashes include resurfacing from diving or just walking around. Again, those are difficult to reproduce; they happen at random.

May I ask if you try to open the inventory or menu at the start of the game, does the crash still persist? 🙂

Not that I recall. Again, it happens at random. I could be several hours into gameplay or just starting to play. It happens when the inventory screen freezes as you pull it up by the D-Pad hotkeys or hitting the "Y" button. The game then cuts to black and kicks me back to console menu. Sometimes it makes me scared to use my inventory, especially if I have rare items in there. I may lose them and be forced to start my day over. That's happened at least ten times, all at different points in the game.

Update: I can confirm it happens towards the evening hours of the game; usually late into a day's progress but not always. It's often a coin-flip between working and crashing by then. It doesn't normally crash when I start the game, but not ruling it out.
