Same experience for me, I could see only one! Haha. And yes, lots of ghosts all around...
Hi guys, I also had the problem with the background music and the A button. I managed to solve it. What I did was delete the game from Nintendo. Turn off the console completely, remove the memory card, turn it back on and re-download it, so the game is saved on the Nintendo directly. After the download, I turned it off again completely and put the memory card back in. I hope this can help you too.
About the chapaa chase, this morning I was playing a party with another player who uses the PC, we were on call, and she also told me about the problem of not being able to catch anything and ghost players. This problem is not only on Nintendo. I know that all of this is very frustrating, but I think the following: the purpose of the game is to distract us, not to get stressed. So if you are not having a good experience, the best thing to do is take a break, do another activity, play other games... I truly know that we are all frustrated with these recurring problems. Another tip, check if the Nintendo's connection to the Internet is ok, for example, I have 2 types of connection on the Internet router, one faster and another with a greater range and slower, I always stay on the faster one. Cheers
All fixes people have found are only temporary, the issue keeps coming back because the problem is in the game itself. Only the devs can fix it for good, and they're taking their sweet time to do it despite the fact that it majorly impacts gameplay in a very negative way.
@lapis canopy I only went into Settings > Data Management > Move Data Between System/SD Card on Switch
I believe you, this may indeed be happening. I am reporting what I did and it has been stable here since Sunday, with the music and the A button working. I still feel upset knowing that this does not work for everyone and it may also become a problem for me again at any time.
Hello, I didn't try to do it that way, because I thought the problem would only be replicated again. But if it works too, even better, less time spent on it.
It worked
The moving 2 and from sd chip don't work for me nor have any of the other so call temp fix didnt slow down nor solve anything temp guess im that unlucky š oh well hopefully somekind of fix will come i still have the bit of my plot conner unworkable
Only S6 can fix the issue nothing you can try or nothing alternative or any workaround will work if so it's only temporary. A group of us have tried every which way and nothing works so we can only sit back patiently with our fingers crossed and hope S6 devs will fix it soon.
And all we can ask is that everyone does send a ticket in and if you do mention it as not your A button but as your "interactive" key thank you.
I rage-quit after not being able to catch a chapaa in the chase, A button is unreliable. Before the update, I only had to tap it once now I have to tap twice! I think latency might be an issue.
Anyone else keep getting this when the games starts to load?
I got that same error code a week or two ago. I deleted the game and re-downloaded it on switch and that error doesn't come up anymore.
Hi all, question: after sometime of picking loot does it brake for you too? meaning I can pick stuff up and then I can't, A button also has been problematic at travel stands and stores?
A button problem is something that lot of Switch users were bestowed with after last hotfix.
Gotcha, thanks!
Now my A button only doesn't work for the Chappa chase! I am starting to hate this game
Iāve submitted another ticket re. the A button issue and asked them to address it on their Discord because I donāt think theyāve even addressed it yet and itās very disheartening 
I've noticed that my interactive button(s) stops working if I accidentally open my tool menu and cancel it with "B". (X to pick up decor also stops working along with A to interact)
Can anyone else replicate that? If we know what to avoid, maybe we can at least prevent it.
some comments on a reddit post did confirm this
Reply to the ticket:
āI totally understand that this has been on going for a while now. I looked this up on our end and I see that the dev team is still working on a permanent fix for this bug. While there are no updates or announcements about this yet, I can assure you that the team is prioritizing this issue given the impact of this in the game.ā
Okay! I hadn't seen it mentioned here. Personally I find it a little less annoying now that I know it's not just random
Something happened to me a few times and I wonder if anyone can replicate:
- Cook a dish;
- Pick up dish (mine was starred, idk if it matters);
- Get weekly achievement task related to cooking;
- Can't sprint or jump anymore.
It's so weird, happened to me 2 or 3 times so far. Anyone else? Thankfully, going through a loading screen or restarting the game fixes it
(I should probably send a ticket,how do I do that?)
Oh yeah, I've also have had that happened to me many times. It happened yesterday when I open the menu by accident and then quickly closed it. It's quite annoying
Have any of yāall been in the plush trading channel. Itās genuinely stressful š
What's going on? My inventory isn't full and it happened earlier at the loot pile in Bahari.
Another issue š
Today for the first time ever since I played this game, I quit because the game left me freaking annoyed. I hate to play the game at the moment because of all the bugs on Switch:
- Loot canāt be picked up randomly
- āAā button doesnāt work properly
- Kicked out of servers many times
- Tools canāt be picked or keep frozen
- Talking to cpr does not work
- All controls on controller are delayed
Iām crying and hope S6 will fix this. This is my go-to game every single day, but for now Iām mindblow about how bad everything works ššš
(no updates available, Iām playing the most recent version)
maybe itās your ammo pouch that is full
Is there a spot in here to recommend twitch streamers that Iām overlooking?
SAME itās driving me nuts. I use special items to complete achievements and then it stops working.
Same...
I water the plants on my property and then nothing works anymore. I don't even need to leave my property because nothing works. Just annoying.

lol, I'm reading this discord because I tried to flirt with Einar and got stuck - I can't do anything at all, no chat for /unstuck, no map to go home, nothing. And he's not going to walk away to kill the chat for who knows how long. I don't want to have to quit the game and rejoin because that takes so long .. argh
Hey all! Just reposting this for those who need help with A button / interactive. Iāll keep reposting this like once a week til it gets fixed to hopefully make your playing experience less annoying š
For those having the A button issues hereās a list of things that might help/fix it:
-switching the button to a different button or purposely binding 2 of the same button
-moving save data from SD card to internal memory
-removing all paid skins, tool skins, glider skins, and pets
-waiting for the full animation of whatever youāre collecting to finish & to wait between button presses.
-checking corrupt data in Manage save data>palia, then redownloading the game.
-unbind emotes & saved costumes
-switch loading zones, moving from home to town.
-do not press b/exit tool wheel, costume wheel, or emote wheel. Wait for the wheel to load & interact accordingly.
And to add on for those having trouble with groves; hit the trees once before everyone starts taking them down and back off.
Collect your loot after everyone has left & is done. This doesnāt work 100% of the time but has helped me every so often.
Has anyone else been having a problem with the Placement Mode? Iāve been unable to leave the mode unless I leave my housing plot completely.
That's better than what I got. I just got something like "it's a known issue but we don't know when it'll be fixed." Not even that it was prioritized or anything.
Another is do not press "b" while in a wheel (tools or emotes) just don't do it. Not the only thing that causes it but it's a big one
Ty Iāll add that to the list
I actually just had the B button one happen to me while farming lol
I had it happen to me after I already knew about it bc I wasn't thinking when I went to cancel out of the tool wheel š like aw dang. Luckily I realized I pressed b immediately after doing it so after I checked, tried doing some things to see if I could get to work (unsuccessfully) I just restarted.
Do yāall know if thereās any way to optimize game quality on the switch? I love the game but it looks so badš
Sometimes textures donāt load in well but that might just be the switchās capabilities :/
No they chose to not have settings on quality for the switch
Yea sometimes it looks amazing and other times textures donāt load at all, I get itās optimization but itās so weird how it will āsometimesā do it. š
Itās impressive enough the game is able to work on the switch, but really wish there was an offline mode to save a bit of loading power and not spend it on other players or any online game modes.
Most games run with distance like Kirbyās Forgotten Land, where the further something is, the lower the fps & quality. But this game does both? Like u can have items look good & bad at the same time in a close proximity.
Iām assuming that itās just textures/models not loading and then not loading at all.
The blueberry bushes are the worst! I can be standing right up on them and they're just green blobs
sighhhh ok thank you, appreciate you taking the time to submit a ticket and sharing the info. Just⦠hope it gets fixed soon
Whereād you hear that? I remember then months ago saying that they were working on a way to be able to change the quality on switch, but thatās the last I had heard
And new glitch tonight, some characters are mute now. Jel, and, my favorite, Reth. And no music. Iām done for now gosh
Chose as in when it launched/rn since they asked anyway to change it now!
It would be cool if they did let us pick settings in the future
No problem
itās disappointing they wonāt just acknowledge it on the Discord, I donāt know why they wonāt. If this was an issue happening on PC then they definitely would!
I know more people play on PC but surely they have a lot of Switch players
@obtuse skiff my pouch wasn't which was stranger.
@modern crow This sounds like it's just that bug that showed up with the last release some people have a problem with being able to pick up loot. I haven't had the issue but I guess I've been lucky. Since I moved the game from the SD card to the main memory a lot of my problems went away
Like all the others that seem to be and need to be fixed.
Anyone had issues of palia having to close due to an error?? I have had this a couple times in the last few days
All these bugs are a big part of the reason why I donāt play Palia as much anymore. Itās just gotten ridiculous that I canāt enjoy the cozy vibes without crazy amounts of lag or loading issues.
Hello I have linked my account to the switch and supposedly got a frog outfit and a glider, I got the glider but not the outfit
Did u check the wardrobe 4 the outfit
I have already looked he tells me not in possession
Hmmmm maybe a reloading if not then check forms 4 similar things then ticket it iv herd of this b4 just cant recall the fixes of there was 1 i myself haven't had this issue so im not fully sure
i'll wait until tomorrow, if it's not there by then i'll write a ticket
Sounds good
Hi! I donāt know if things have changed, but there was a limited time deal on that. I had missed that cutoff point by like one day back in January. The frog outfit is now in the premium shop to purchase with real money tho if youād like to still get it. I finally got it cause Iāve been wanting it for months ahaha. Though you could open a ticket to see if that info is still correct!
i got an email from palia itself saying i should pick up the glider and the outfit
If anyone is interested in being switch friends my switch id is on my profile
Also have started a community in game if interested let me know.
Is there a way to find a friend on the switch? My daughter and I are switch friends, but we can never find each other in Palia, and there doesn't seem to be a search option
NM, of course it worked as soon as I asked
I never got that outfit and I started playing months ago. I was under the impression that that deal was over, I only got this glider
but then i don't understand why the email talks about gliders and outfits
Maybe they forgot to update the text to reflect the change of rewards (no outfit anymore)
hey guys. i play on switch but recently the āAā button just stops working? itās very frustrating because i canāt pick up my loot or anything and i lose like ten minutes restarting the software and logging into the game to get it to work again
is it just my device or is this happening to other people?
a lot of switch users are effected with the A button issues. thereās temporary fix for it but nothing permanent yet as we need to wait for devs to actually fix it.
Anyone keep getting āthe software has had to close due to an errorā messages pop up?
Going on three weeks and the āAā button on Switch stops working at random all the time now. I play a lot less these days because of this bug. Over 1500 hours in, Palia is my most-played game in 8 years but canāt deal with this basic and core function failing. Total game-breaker / heartbreaker.
It happens sometimes, but it seems to be happening more frequently. Try these suggestions. #š¦āissues-discussions message
thank you so much!!
same for me. itās so frustrating, especially when iāve run all the way to certain places and then canāt even do the tasks i want
I've noticed I've been having to double click it to get the A interaction to work, too, RIP
Also, home tours is killing me
so much lag
I just want to see the pretty plots
It happens to me all the time 
Happens to my daughter every time she goes in her kitchen and when I go over to be plot and when I go into her kitchen.
But it does happen to me time to time has well.
They keep saying empty the cache but we have yet found it to empty it on the switch. Not saying there's not one just we've not yet found it.
For the millionth time today š„²š„²š„²š„²
I feel yea happens to me often too
Good lord if a button crucial to gameplay is a known bug, the devs should just call it quits. This is getting out of hand
Maybe set the PC players aside for a minute and focus on the switch players. PC gang will survive
That's just a small part of the issue, cause it's not just picking up loot that stops working, it's all A button interractions
Is anyone having issues farming for palium because switch players canāt switch servers easily? I just ran the whole of bahari and only found a single ore deposit. This has happened several times & Iāve seen guides talk about a server being āmilked dryā?
I rarely find any palium and I've been mining like crazy lately. I know mining increases the chance of palium spawning, but it's never worked in my favor, unfortunately
Palium deposits vary by server. On one u find plenty on other almost nothing. It is good idea to keep an eye on chat. If u see palium calls coming from south Bahari, then that is a place to be. If north then come back to north. Using the ore detector helps. Also it is affected by players on server u r, there are players that find palium, mine and leave without shareing info. If u catch urself on this one, just hop to one of the boards and teleport from one location to other. Should change servers.
Hope all above helps
Thanks!
Welcome
This just happened to me for the first time šŖ
i sympathise with your pain
Yea found switching servers helped a lot, went from 3 ores whole map to 14 ores whole map.
Think Iām just getting unlucky? Use to get 25-30 ores per play session but now Iām lucky to even find 1 deposit and get maybe 1-3 ores from it š
Just keep at it. Hardest part is to keep up with other players findings
I keep failing flipping in cooking on Switch. I push ZR each time the blue dot covers the yellow dot, and I'm doing it for like 5 rounds or so, and then it's still failed š¦ How do you do it?
U press, when moving dot matches the one on circle, let go
If both match well enough u gonna flip the dish
Oh wow, I'll try, thanks!
Let me know u succeeded
Oh my goodness!!! I finally did it right!! Thank you!
And the A button failing and having to bail haha 
Yea itās a bit difficult when it lags on switch!
I wasn't affected, guess lucky me, but yeah. Feel for ya
I get it more often on groves & farming; so not the worst thing in the world requesting planks
I only had few days that I had to press A quickly twice to loot but other then that no problem.
I have no idea why I was spared
anyone else having problems with the game? I don't have chat, and can't visit any friends because of that. It used to be linked ages ago, got fixed, is now broken for me again..
When u press R chat should come up even if it's missing. It happened to me yesterday. And I could chat with people and the when I stop for a few, again disappeared.
Thank you, but yes when i press R the chat does come up but there is no actual communication possibilities. It just seems like it. I asked on discord to message, and i messaged and we tested all kinds of things but it won't work. Also I cannot visit friends as their names are grayed out.
Go to server. Greyed out friends are there for a while now. I think from last update. I go to a tab before it, find friends and can visit
oh that's wierd.. it also seems like it is an issue only for a few people. Another switch player had no problems. I will try going to server and seeing if that works, thanks
As long as they are on a plot and is open u will be able to visit.
Let me know does it work
it didn't work, until i really went up and down and played with the options.. so wierd.. but it was still grayed out
I would have to log in and check. The greyed out will stay but shoukdn't be in server
U should be able to find ur friends on a list among other players and visit
I checked in. Under friends I have no problem, under server, I have no problem.
ok thanks š it works but requires a bit of work around
The only section thst is greyed out for me is party members
hmm not for me.. it's gray even in friends
So evenbif ur friend would be in party eith ya u still have to go through friends
If they are online they shouldn't be greyed out. No idea why would happen
i see.. ok. Thanks! that really helped š now if chat would work haha
Against all odds, i have missing chat bar, I pressed R and it opens chat, and I can write.
And I can even chose where I wanna place my message on which channel
Does the chat open?
yes but there is no real chat.. it's just says Ćæou have joined a new server" or sth
Yep. Now press A
Type hello and press Y
Whatvu have on very bottom of ur chat window
Even thou if u typed hello and it shows on bottom line press Y again. It should show on chat
When u open chat and nobody writes it will tell ya only you have joined a new server
Possibly show who came online or offline from ur friends
If ur friend types and u can't see it it is possible u guys are on different server.
U can always try to whisper
Hope it helped and now works
I havenāt played in like a month bc of this š I think I might give it a go again today⦠I miss the game so much but it was starting to stress me out! Is it always crashing for you or are some days worse than others?
I missed out on the maji market bc everytime I entered kilama I would crash before I could make it to the entrance š
Also has anyone tried charging their switch (lite) with just a regular phone charging box? My dog chewed through my switch charger rip. I just know it must be a much lower wattage
Take ur time. Kilima is really killer. When u enter try not to move for a while and let assets load. That might help
Iāll try! I never had any issues before the maji market, but it was like an hour multiple days of trying before I gave up rip
But I have a myriad of issues in general, every update playing on switch has become almost unusable š but I think thereās been a patch or so since I last played so I definitely wanna check it out again
Since March the bugs for Switch keep growing. I found some walkarounds for most but some just are beyond.
My main beef is that i freeze almost everytime I cook so im constantly waisting ingredients and running low on focus and then when im about to chop the grove i crash almost every single time
I did all the fixes support recommended re the cooking but it just still doesnāt work
For cooking I had that waaay back. I wasn't able to cook same way like u. My solution was to cook at friends.
Rip everytime I cook with friends I crash
After a while for some reason it stopped
I really wonder if theyāre learning itās just not compatible with switch and donāt wanna admit it
Granted I have a lite so itās probably the crappiest device to play on
Do u have Palis on sd or internal memory?
Hmmm Iām not sure I will have to check
I believe internal but yeah Iāll check that
Which is better ?
Internal.
Kk thanks I will check that
Also, scroll this chat. People found some solutions to improve performance.
I only crash when I visit pc plots due to overwhelming decor that switch can't handle and very rarely around players with outfits that have particle effects
Please write in ticket
Iāve had this for the last month since the mani market ended and theyāve only just recently sent out a message saying theyāre aware of the a button issueā¦. This is literally after Iāve paid into the game and got a house plot mapā¦ā¦. I donāt know if this is just usually how long they take to fix a problem
Some they fix pretty quick, others carry on.
Thank you for the infoš
Sad one, it is. š
Canāt help but feel a little bit frustrated. I donāt even mind the weird quirks. I donāt mind the teleporting deer and muujin, the loading times and the server kicks. I just canāt deal with not being able to pick up my loot, farming stuff, relogging 4 times and still unable to pick up my loot after 5 minutes of playing
Hear ya!
Ty
I was spared with A button problem. To this day no idea how.
But I feel for u and all others who got it.
they still havent fixed it yet??? that's crazy
Nope
hoping for a fix soon, maybe at the end of the month?? i dunno, can only hope
with hot pot, if I press A button too fast after one game, I sometimes enter the new one with the result tab of last game still on. I then have to re-login because I can't close the result tab nor play any card å§
Omg yes! Happened to on 2 separate occasion while doing spampot! After that I started making sure to wait 2-3 seconds before joining back in
Only after updates....š
Updates meant to fix things no less. The irony 
Backwards compatibleš
Mine got a bit better after recent update actually. My main plot crashed toooo often for the last a few months. I ended up moving my kitchen to other plot so I could cook. After recent update, it still crashes, but not very ofter, at least not everytime.
That to be said, Iām honestly amazed by how much I can tolerate.
Devs don't give a š© about switch players unfortunately
Can anyone on switch help me, I am trying to help a new player with filling requests and they're having trouble with it
What are they having trouble with exactly?
If they can't fill them because they're all expired, they need to check their clock settings and make sure it's on the correct time
This is a shot in the dark. For people who are having trouble with the A button not working or other control problems, try updating the Joycon firmware. https://www.nintendo.com/en-gb/Support/Nintendo-Switch/Usage/Controllers/How-to-Update-the-Controller-Firmware-1294569.html
Yeah, they switched it to PC instead cause something was wrong with their clock settings or something
Yeah you can use a strong charger just not a weak one
I use a USB C laptop charger when I can't find my switch charger
This is for my normal switch not lite tho
They are aware of the A button
Oh A button is just slow
it works but slow sometimes if it doesnāt show up I click b once and then it does
Yes, but sometimes it just litterally stops working at all, no matter how many times you press it, and the only rhing that fixes it is restarting the game
Oh I wish it was just slow 
The A button thing is very annoying to me, especially when Iāve used resources (arrows, bug bombs, tool health, whatever) and successfully gained some loot but then canāt pick it up.
The worst example for me happened when all the Switch buttons, except for screenshot and home, went dead while I was playing Hot Pot with other gamers. That has happened to me twice, and both times, I thought it best to stay and let the timer run out my draws rather than disrupt the other gamersā play by exiting Palia. What was weird? As soon as the Hot Pot game ended, and it was Time To Eat, my Switch buttons became operable again.
On a positive note, Iāve found that, frequently, a nonfunctional A button will start working again if I move to a new map location (from plot to Kilima, from Bahari to plot, from Maji Market to anywhere, etc.)āwhich wonāt fix the lost resource/missing loot problemābut at least keeps me from having to close the game and restart it.
Yea the map switch has been lifesaver! Esp when u can open ur map and tele to home
Coming into the server and seeing peopleās crisp clean screenshots are so nice, ik the qualityās bad on the switch compared to PC but it feels like Iām playing with cataracts lol
I have a question for people experiencing the A button not working bug. Are you using Nintendo Joycons, the Nintendo Pro controller, 3rd-party Joycons, a 3rd-party Pro controller, or something else?
I have a Switch Lite, so my personal answer... is none of the above!! š
I have a Switch OLED MARIO Edition
I play with a Gulikit KingKong 2 Pro controller and haven't had the unresponsive A button.
Does anyone know what to do when I have a purple screen š©
What were you trying to do?
Try teleport home through opening map and press X
To open map press +, go to map
Does anyone know if you have a game on the switch and then download the game on the computer if you can login to your switch game? I want to (just for the fact that chat is so annoying on the switch) but I don't want to start a new game.
I think if both your steam and Nintendo account are linked to the Palia account you can. I don't have it on pc though so can't confirm 100%
Yes you can! I have played on both, just make sure you have a palia account
I've been playing on my switch for a month but it never had me log into anything that I can remember...
Did u skip the ācreate an accountā?
I think there are some hoops to jump through - you can get a QR code on the switch that you use to create an account. I've never done it, but have seen it discussed before
Try upgrading your account. #š²āconsole-zone message
Itās youāre switch Details isnāt it?
I managed to link my switch account to a new palia account months into playing
There's NO WAY that they talk about the "excessive load times" issue and not the one we're all experiencing on Switch.
They're doing it on purpose. 
I've gave enair all his pepples but it doesn't show as complete in my accomplishment anyone else have this issue
Was about to say this
Switch users haven't been able to play the game in its most basic form for 3 weeks ;_;
many report bug on the pebble accomplishment. you can submit a ticket. they can fix it
sometimes it feels like, they don't see switch players as switch players, and only consider switch as an alternative for pc.
Thank you not sure how to submit a ticket.. and I agree
The thing is, even if it was for some reason a REALLY challenging bug to fix.. acknowledging issues on PC on the updates and not this feels like a massive blind spot? Like bruh this isn't a minor inconvenience, it's the entire games playability. Can't help but feel like most other online games patch these issues in a matter of hours.
Today is my day. :(((( I cant play anymore. Try in my plot something to build, Go to the chest ,cant open it. Nothink work. Restart the game. I play this restart game now 5 times in one hour. Not funny anymore. Since the last update playing with switch is a nightmare. I cant count howmany times i dident get loot from hunting, cant take the chappas in Maji or dident count by the ballon game. Cant start cooking when in a cooking Party, and so on and so on. I really hope when the next Update come, this game is playeble again for swith. I really really hope.
it makes me wonder if anyone is testing these updates on the switch before they roll out??? i know nothing about game development so idk how that would work exactly but yeah switch is the only platform i can play on, i feel really overlooked rn ://
I feel your pain, I just wish they'd acknowledge how bad this is and make switch users feel seen
Doesn't seem like it š same, I have no other optionsn
The thing I'm most baffled about isn't even about how long they're taking to fix it, but why acknowledging a bug for PC users and not the most problematic one for the Switch.
They also responded to support tickets saying that they're aware of it but why don't they even make an official status message on the discord about it?
Right, and the entire switch thread is blowing up about it... It's not exactly a secret how bad this is
#š¢āpalia-news message But they don't talk about the problem that all Switch players encounter.. the A button.. Obviously.. we are only a minority...
I was tryna find the most passive aggressive emoji to react to that update š
Lmao I chose the angry one 
I hope so too. I am also very frustrated, since I can not afford a pc or gaming laptop. the switch is best I can pull gaming wise.
I just hope s6 lives the spirit shown ingame and will fight for us, the small switch community, and solve the hickups within the next update. I rly hope so.
I have a question for people experiencing the A button not working bug. Are you using Nintendo Joycons, the Nintendo Pro controller, 3rd-party Joycons, a 3rd-party Pro controller, or something else?
Normal joycons
i checked with joycons, nintendo pro (wired and wireless) and 3rd party pro controller (wired and wireless). a button mailfunction occured regardless of the controller type
And Now the want to expand to xd & ps!!They Should fix these problems FIRST Then add more consoles.....SMH
Omg yeah otherwise switch will either get cancelled or the entire game will suffer with playability
I hope you can transfer your palia character to a new port. Because if palia becomes a console game Iām automatically switching
Is it the purple pebble that shows up as missing, but you know you gave it to Einar?
I (very recently) submitted a support ticket to address precisely this problem. Was told that the missing pebble thing is a known issue. Will need to be fixed in a future update. No clear terms for that update. So, we just have to suck it up and hope that the devs come through with a solution sooner rather than later.
Iām using Nintendo joycons
#š¢āpalia-news message oh.. maybe??
@untold fiber it's like 4 that don't show i gave him same with my mom we play together we even went back to make sure we found them all and we did so hopefully they figure it out. I have almost all the accomplishments but that and star fish
Fourāthatās a lot. So sorry. š Putting in a support ticket wouldnāt be a bad idea⦠you know, getting your issue on record and having your account connected to it. That way, your account should definitely be registered for the game fix when the update comes out (being positive here) š I worked with Niks and Mizu in player support. They offered what help they could.
Yea wouldn't hurt. I guess Ill google how to submit a ticket. Thank you so much for you help!!!
you can find support in + menu, at the bottom. a qr code will pop up.
Or, sign into the main Palia website, on which youāll see a tab for Support. On that page will be a text box for you to use to write about your issue. Then hit the āSubmitā tab under the filled-in text box.
For all we know this issue is not caused by the game console, since it occurs only while playing Palia.
(Also as you saw by the responses you got earlier it isn't even related to a specific Switch model or if you play docked or not).
In my opinion, the only thing we can do is hoping for the devs to fix it. 
However, if you find anything that might help please feel free to share it here.

Here's a link to the Player Support: http://support.palia.com/
Oh ok simple enough ill go do that now you've been a big help Thanks
I thought the exact same thing when I saw their post.
Itās glaringly obvious they donāt really care about their Switch players and itās so disappointing.
People have submitted tickets about this issue and specifically asked them to address it on their Discord to make their Switch players feel acknowledged, and theyāve literally replied saying they havenāt acknowledged it. They know what theyāre doing and I canāt excuse it anymore š
Especially those Switch players that have sunk money into the game and supported it in that way. Itās a real kick in the teeth 
Sorry for the rant. Itās just been a month since Iāve played the game because of this issue and I miss it. I really expected it to have been fixed by now š«
I think they saw us raging about it so they made another vague message that might be on this issue lol
Same, I don't like writing negative messages like this but it's really overwhelming and I feel bad wanting to play the game but not being able to.
Thanks everyone for the responses. Iām trying to figure out why itās not affecting everyone to see if thereās a common thread. The earlier troubleshooting steps were comprehensive.
I feel like depending on the age of your switch if itās first gen or switch lite etc is a factor in if the A button isnāt working. For instance I have first gen switch (bought on the launch day many moons ago) yet I have no issue with my a button, yet newer genās of the switch seem to be having issues
I know itās been said, but the A button issue has made the game unplayable. I donāt have the issue as bad as my wife but I donāt feel like I can play cause she literally canāt and itās all awful
I just feel the need to rant
I don't play on Switch so I haven't tried this but, someone who does posted some suggestions here you may want to try until it gets fixed #š¦āissues-discussions message
Thank you
Totally. A while back a free game I was playing on switch had issues arise where some players would lose all their progress upon logging in and/or be unable to claim rewards from daily quests. Do you know how fast they took care of that? 72 hours. 72 hours
All these A button troubles should've been pubicly aknowledged in the server and fixed by now, there's no excuse
Fixing the switch issues would be great sick and tired of my A button not working properly but still loving the game also I here there more better editing took on the PC I am not sure more added maybe a arch making tools and I would like to see a tool you could write a text message made of Wood stone much more better editing tools to create that special something??? Just saying our own furniture creations
Hey, is there like a suggestion form somewhere? Cause if there is I am gonna be telling them they should have a team focused solely on switch so our user experience is valued as much as that of the pc players instead of being relaguated as low priority like it's been for months now. We should all do it tbh, they need to wake up and realize and frigging biased they are towards helping pc players vs us
Yea I think itās !feedback
Well wrong on that nothing popped up š
Idk what the shortcut is, but hereās the link: https://palia.info/feedback
Palia Player Feedback.
I know I sent feed back on glitched loot. Switch players with the command buttons glitching out. If they might could have Auni drop it off in that mail box. He's always out looking for the bugs and we know he finds it. If more folks suggest the same they might work on implementing that losing the loot wouldn't hurt so bad.
Yea if the switch bug is long term, I feel like they should have loot auto collect or something as a temporary fix.
Both ideas are great.
The auto loot is a great idea especially for bugs, trees, and mining. That's a great way to be faster when magie wolf hunting.
even just a very small team would be good. maybe next maji market, someone in their meeting could suggest a shooting mini game is not that fair for switch players, since there is nearly no aim assist + already slower shooting speed. Then maybe a reward buff for playing with controller, or take it into consideration when pricing special items or set target accomplishments.
Ooh, auto loot would be nice
I mean I actually like the balloon game, but don't want to feel like I am being punished for playing on switch not pc.
I just fire at wil during that one since we have unlimited arrows, it's not too bad. If they come out with a precise shooting game though that would be a problem
Switch exclusive lobbies might help for maji market, that way itās more skill/rng?
Plus wonāt be as crowded to hopefully prevent a button from bricking during cheppa catching
Some fighting games do it to help prevent lag
As I said before, I don't think it's related to the game console.
I also have a first gen Switch and the A button issue.
And I have a Splatoon OLED and I got the A button issues from the hotfix meant to fix the A button issues
This patch coming on Thursday had better fix the A button issue.
I canāt even describe how disappointing itāll be if the patch notes donāt address it at all 
i like the auto loot idea and it'd be nice to have equal opportunities at maji market compared to pc users... some people literally don't show up while chasing chapaas lol
very true, i feel like they would implement it in the far future tbh, maybe like after elderwoods š even then there would be more projects they'd have on their to-do list, probably
They laid off half their employees. I doubt they have the resources and people to put together a team solely to focus on the switch
I'm not expecting them to do it right away, but they need to do it so they're fair to us. They keep ignoring our issues or delaying the fixes and yet the 2nd pc players are affected by something they drop evwrything to fix the issue in a matter of hours or days. And yet after nearly a month they still haven't fixed the A button issues we face, which is a major game hindering bug as it's our main interraction button
Honestly at this point it wouldn't just be disappointing but also down right disrespectful. They are yet to even acknowledge the A button issue on the server and yet they fixed the excessive loading times asap cause pc players were affected and now they're pumping out new content still without a word about the A button
hey guys my friend isnt able to pick up items on his end or loot
hes on the switch so im trying to figure out whats going on
This!! I just submitted another ticket šš
This is a known glitch for switch users, apparently itās been happening for a month now and still hasnāt been fixed. I just submitted another ticket for it. š¤Ø
Have them change zones (go from town to home; vice versa).
This is the best temp fix for it. On rare occasions itāll happen multiple times when u start the game.
@leaden shore oh and make sure that their game is on internal storage not SD, this causes the issue to happen way less often!
ahh okey thank you, ill relay that info next time we go on
I completely agree. If the patch comes out tomorrow without a fix for the A button or any acknowledgement in the patch notes Iāll submit another ticket asking them why they wonāt address it 
If they don't address it I'm rage quitting... Again š
Anyone else's preserve jars not working? Just says 0s all the time have tried removing it all and trying again. Rather frustrating
It's a bug that happens if you don't play for a while. Take the stuff out of the hopper at the top. Then click on the "X" to the bottom right to cancel the job. That should reset the preserve jar.
Ty!
You're welcome!
I haven't seen a single pc player complain about their main interraction button not working, that's a switch issue. My point was that as soon as an issue started affecting pc players (as opposed to only switch players), the devs were quick to acknowledge it in the server and fix the issue, and yet after a month we still have no word here about the A button issues on switch
I feel like no one on the dev team cares that the switch game is so bugged
Really hope they fix the A button issue soon, it kinda ruins it when you hunt or catches bug and then canāt pick up the item after all your hard work š
Yeah unfortunately it just happened to me and I play switch I can't pick up anything
For real. And it's such a shame cause it's a good game, and it used to run pretty well back in end of april when I started. Now it's a big laggy and glitchy mess 
Not sure if it makes a difference really but I noticed that when I go to Bahari Bay from Kilima, I donāt usually run into the problem with the A button. At least not as often as opposed to when I go to Bahari from my home plot.
But I have a problem that I can't solve.
How come my game on Switch is only laggy and staggery but don't have A button issue. Why u guys have it and I don't.
I try for last few days to ponder about it and can't comprehend, why.
I rarely crash while playing. Had losing conne tion with server isuue which I don't any more. Rarely I freeze. What gives? No idea.
No clue. I havenāt played in months tbh and then decided to come back and play again and now my game is glitchy and the a button doesnāt work. Months ago, the game was way smoother for me at least on the switch. Now itās way more glitchy and buggy. š¤Øšš I keep submitting tickets to get these issues fixed š
And since they launch the game on steam the bugs for Switch keep adding up
I hope they realize thereās a lot of players that play on the switch, and fixing the glitches on there should be a priority as well. š« š¤
Same here
Just caught a disco deer šŖ© and I couldnāt pick it up ššššššš
Nooo id be so mad š
Yday I couldn't pick up flow wood and that hurt š
My fortnightly check in this channel to see if theyāve fixed the switch issues, before I bother loading up the game and being disappointed 
still broken I see
ur just like me fr
I had like at least one azure Chappa I couldn't pick up. Idec about this disco deer I couldn't get but I am rarely able to successfully hunt a chappa in the first place (even without it splitting, it's the switchs hunting teleporting glitch that's the issue)
#š¢āpalia-status message Do you think they will fix the A button bug or am I getting my hopes up too high?
Ima have to ask you guys if it worked cause ima still be at work when the update is done, hopefully all goes well though, fingers crossed š¤
If it's still not fixed I'll come complain to this chanel xD 
If I worked I would still bring my Switch to work with me just so I could update it & play it on break
I don't have a break today cause it's a short shift. But even if I had one, it's only 30 minutes and eating takes most of it 
You and me both lol, and immediately send a report to the devs
Really is hellish that bug
IāM SO RELIEVED
now just to hope that it actually works 
finally!! i was so afraid it was gonna show up in top known issues š
I'm so happy! I just started playing and nearly stopped for this exact reason
Same, that's why as soon as I saw patch notes were out I opened them and scrolled all the way to fixes and known issues
The funniest thing is that we won't even be able to enjoy it because when the servers reopen we'll all go fishing xDD 
i got a weird one: so, i'm chatting with an npc and i try to gift them. the menu is there but no pointer to select the gifts. its WORSE when i try to do that with Tau and i can't respond. with other npcs, i can respond to them but can't gift. the fix is to just reset the chat with them and try gifting there. but it doesn't work well with Tau and i have to reset the game and i miss out on that little session š¦
Yes Iāve had the same happen to me when speaking with and gifting npcās
Has anyone have this issue on Switch while playing Hotpot? I hate that it glitched out that iām unable to play and would have to close the game and come back. 
hello new switch user here
originally downloaded on my laptop, realized I had to use the keyboard to move around and said NOPE . so switch it is 
I use an Xbox controller whenever I play it on pc, but switch is more enjoyable when you want to stay in bed 
I use my switch controller :u
oh thatās smart, never came to mind. i will have my switch on my tv when i want to be in bed, then hook it up to my monitor when i actually want to get up 
Yup, all the time

Once you go big screen with the game, you canāt go back 
Ok first of all yay and I really hope it's fixed, but... I love how it's the last thing on the list šš
Ugh I knowā¦..
So..? Is the A button bug fixed? 
I'm unable to connect, beacon client failed to connect. Ugh.
So what's the verdict? A button behaving now?
best spot to mine for copper?
No news for the moment xD
i sent to another chat, but itās way too hectic and my message got overlooked
Downloading the patch will update once I've logged on whether I still have the A button issue or if it seems fixed
uh ok so. i downloaded the update, and have booted up the game three times nowāevery time i reach the "press any button" screen the game crashes?? gonna check for corrupt data but is anyone else having this?? was so excited and now it's not working š
edit: no corrupt data found :/
How we doing fellow switch gamers?? Did they fix the a button? Is the music and sound back????
anyone else wish they would change the ā - ā button function when opening your map? I keep clicking it out of habit to close the map (utilizing it as a b button) forgetting that it will open the premium store
Is there a chance that upcoming patches above 0.186 or later will have a faster time for downloading and installing processes of Palia on Switch (Currently: 1 hour and 30 min. have passed and my Download-Beam show me: 46% ⦠ā ā¦horribleā¦)?
Or can I personally to do sth. to fix this problem?
Add:
09.59 p.m. (MET, winter time) the downloading process for Palia-Patch 0.186 is now complete [switch OLED, latest version]:
ā¢Totally Downloading Duration (0.185ā”ļø0.186): 2h 15 min.āļø
ā¢Totally Installing Duration (0.185ā”ļø0.186): 7 min. 55 sec.
āāā
Ī£: 2h 22 min. 55 sec.ā¼ļø
Might be your internet, mine never takes that long to install an update
Anyone else disconnect to the server and just get "can't connect to beacon client" when they try to go back on?
Never have problems like this before I played Palia hereā¦
On Switch, iPad etc. Apps and software downloading & installing need only secondsā¦
Is there something else eating bandwidth?
Hot pot crashed on me... so ad
@proud quiver
Only my Discord-App on iPad is running, all other possible eating-bandwidth-Devices I have preventively switched off.
The problem is not new for me, e.g. same thing last patch 0.185ā¦
But I hoped for a solvingā¦
I hope they fixed it šš»šš»šš»
For some mysterious reason, I can't interact with the vaults, do you have the same issue? I can get into it but then I can't add anything at all.
@latent pike you talking about the Ruin Vault with the 4 Bundles for the Temples
I tried to add stuff but no go
Iām having the same problem.
Yeah, I don't know what's happening:(
I'm just gonna go sit in a Palia Twitch Streamer & collect the new drops
In the 4th and last node about patch 0.186 by "Top Bug Fixes" is written among other things that the wind-mute-object-Audio-issue & the A-Button-Switch-Issue is now fixedā¦
AH! I read the wind mute thing and wasnāt sure if that was related to the sound issues or not! And I saw the a button fix mentioned. Tysm!
Hello everyone Well I can not log in after installing the New update I tried various things turning off the switch after the full install oh what a surprise still ca not login it says I do not have access at this time,
Same here, I've tried few times
So at least it not just me Lisa was raring to get started again this evening, look like the switch players are going have to wait I think
I will try later
I do hope they fixed the A button as well
I asked on discussion help this what someone sent me. jina not appearing in the temple is a known bug that we believe we have a fix for, just working on getting it tested and working so we can get it to.
Just repeating what someone wrote
Not sure how long now
It was more of a "did they actually fix it or just said they did" kinda situation, ee know since this morning that patch note said it was fixed. But after that awful hotfix rhat made it 10x worse we're all cautious 
It's truly fixed then? I didn't dare get hopes up
For me A Button is not fixed
Nooo
But maybe its only me idk
Switch OLED, latest version:
Downloading and Installing have finished ~22.20 p.m. (MET, winter time) and now (22.22 and later) I also can not login: After the Loading Screen (Windmills) and on the next Screen with the Login-Button, before I can press "LOGIN" there, the following black box with white a written message appears āDie Software wurde beendet, da ein Fehler aufgetreten ist. (~The software is closed, because an error have occurred.)ā
Knowing my bad luck I very well might end up with a still malfunctionning A button. Still downloading the update though
And npc Dialouges have often "Missing string"
Are fishing nodes not working right for anyone else? No fishing sound or bobble
opposite for me, no vibrations for fishing
Fishing here works as it should but without vibrations
Jina was fine for me. Iāve done parts of the new quest line. Itās pretty fun. I need a good break. I made the mistake of trying to get the winter light decorations. Iām too early.
My fishing was okay. Except if I fish in the bubbles I donāt get any sounds.
Where is it btw, the winter lights? My whole map is still covered in pumpkins š
No vibrations for fishing. I keep loosing my fish bubble.
Hello! Does anyone know when Jina is in the ruins? I have to go see her there to continue the main quest but she's never there :/
#š¤āquest-help
But usually when you have a quest saying to go to a specific spot the npc is there when you go. So just walk in and she should be there
I thought there was a new quest and I lit turned out I had turned the quest off. Maybe check to make sure you have the quest on. š¤·āāļø
So is anyone else getting the beacon failing to connect to the server when trying to quick travel to home plot from map?
has anyone else experienced issues trying to dig up crops? š
yes someone mentioned it here #š±āgardening
whoops, my apologies t___t
thank you for directing me to a more relevant channel with kindness
Ok I canāt get into home plot at all
that's one way to have difficulty digging up crops
(/lh)
I'm gonna see if restarting the game helps for my own issue... maybe try the same? (lol I have literally no other advice)
I did restart still canāt get in
i DMd you
@weary berry yes, try again , I got in second time around
Anyone else crashing when they go in the Temple of Gales during Rooted in Place? It's happened to me 3 times already
I have lost the music again, this happening for anyone else?
Greetings, fellow switch playersāwanted to ask if anyone here experienced the ābeacon client failed to connectā message on the character screen (before getting in to the world), and if anyoneās found a fix?
Yes Iām having this issue. I have to close client entirely and restart it
Welp, Jina doesn't show up in the temple for me and I lost connection the server while talking to her in the library then my game froze for a minute and crashed. Great, this is great. But hey, at least my A button was working fine...yay? 
Just in: I GOT IN PRAISE ALL GODS EXISTENT AND NOT
Looks like you just need to be patient and keep trying to log in (donāt spam the log in button though, just hit it once every 30 sec or so).
Hopefully they fix the Jina quest soon 
Anyone else having problems with cooking? I've lost 3 meals b/c the prep station doesn't give me the recipe to chop the thing I need š„²
Apparently if you cook using certain ingredients like green onion and ginger, it bugs and thereās issues.
Yep. I'm seeing it with green onions. It just doesn't show up in the prep station and I can't finish the meal š
this just in
Theyāre fixing it by tomorrow (:
Yay!
So.. As for me.. I played for 3 hours and I didn't have the bug.. So I think the bug is really fixed 
Well...mostly. I played for like 15 or 20 minutes and while cooking I had to sometimes double or even triple click the A button
For me Jina appeared well at the temple.. That said, I know someone for whom it didn't appear there.. And she was playing on PC
It's a known issue
#š¢āpalia-status message
Oh.. yea me too, sometimes I have to double click, but at least it works, we can interact (:
Me too :/
I've already deleted, reinstalled, removed the memory card, put it back in, transferred the game to the memory card and then back to the switch, and for once it worked, but I couldn't play at that time. Now I went to play and no music... I'm trying to do this process again to see if it comes back...
lmk if it works š¤
- Deleted the game from the Nintendo and the saved files
- Turned off the Nintendo completely and removed the memory card.
- Redownload the game directly to the Nintendo
- Opened the game and no music, I went to Kilima and went back to my plot
- Turned off the Nintendo completely, put the memory card back in
- Moved the game to the memory card, restarted the Nintendo in the power options
- Opened the game, no music
- Closed the game completely, in the manager software I looked for corrupted files (no corrupted data was found)
- āāMoved the game back to the Nintendo
- Opened the game, no music
- Closed the game completely and again did a search for corrupted data (no corrupted data was found)
12 Deleted the saved files on the Nintendo - Opened the game, finally with music!!!
but I still don't know if when I close the game the music will disappear again. I'll take the opportunity to play a little now
damn, you beautiful creature! i'll try these tomorrow to see if it works for me, thanks lol
Well, unfortunately as soon as I turned off the game completely and tried restarting it the music went away again.
hey, i canāt open the bundles anymore at the night sky temple, i just interact with them and my game freeze, i just can press B (iām a switch player), anyone who has any solution for this ?
only the background music is not actually playing, the other sounds are normal. I opened a new ticket to report this again. it is inexplicable how I can make the background music play and then it disappears again 
I really miss the music š¦
I had it sometimes before this update and it made me nostalgic because it adds so much magic and atmosphere to the game that I'm missing
I think because you explored every option here it shows that it's probably a server fault or something
My fishing noise is there unless I fish in the bubbles. Then itās gone. Itās weird.
Same. I also have troubles with the main quest which they were supposed to add and vaults.. I wonder when they will fix it
Where has all the foragable ginger and garlic gone š driving me crazy
I got that started after I figured out I had removed the quest because I got sick of seeing it on my screen.
Yes!!! I can't find garlic at all! I feel your pain
Two moons!!
Seems like every other update brings back an issue with continuous server disconnects. Game is essentially unplayable for me :/
Did anybody encounter a glitch on Subira after temple of gales?
how is the game running on switch rn? i haven't played since the maji market tbh and i remember there being a lot of bugs around that time. is that still the case or have they fixed things?
Lots of bugs unfortunately, as soon as they fix one another one pops up
is it crazy to say i'm not surprised
Is anyone else having issues getting into Bahari?
I have no music either since the .186 update. It's so eerey playing this game in silence!
oh the infamous random server disconnects return again
that's actually horrible ngl
i recently got a pc but i'm ngl the switch experience for playing palia since the beginning made me not want to even download it on here
i've been wasting my time on the sims recently instead š
Omg if I had the option I'd download it on pc in an instant
Looks and runs so much better
I never received an answer with much explanation about this when I opened a ticket last month. It was like let's investigate the problem... I tried to find a way to fix it on my own. But this time it's much more difficult and it won't last long.
I still can't add anything to the Ruin Vault in Night Sky Temple šš so I'll just have to save everything for the Ruin Vault in my iron chest
Has anyone found a solution for not being able to travel to your plot? (:
Has anyone found out why the music for switch is no longer working?
Me š„²
Anyone else having the issue that the game crashes on switch when trying to enter the wind temple? š« I canāt complete the quest since the game just wonāt let me
Anyone know a way to get to Bahari? I got to kilima from my plot but now Iām stuck.
Yes that happened to me several times yesterday
With the fast travel boards maybe?
Itās so annoying š guess I need to get to my computer for a simple quest⦠each patch it seems to get worse
You can get to it through Kilima or from your plot through the back gate
It isnāt connecting to the servers.
I got it to work eventually. I had to restart
I came here to check the state of the game after they said switch performance issues should be fixed but Iām not surprised to learn itās not.
Thereās no way, Iāve tried fast travel from Kilima, still wonāt work
Rereading the switch improvement part of the patch notes, do we think the supposed ghost mode optimization means more ghost people or less??? š With them I could see it going either way and them being excited š š»
Same with me š«
Im writing with the support š
Same
We dont need more/less ghosts, we need the bundles! 
Nintendo Switch Performance
The team is committed to making Palia the best possible experience for Palians playing on Nintendo Switch. Weāve made several impactful performance improvements across the past several weeks. We can now confirm with patch 0.186 hitting live that that these improvement milestones have landed well:
Memory Management Enhancements: Fixed memory leak issues and improvedresource allocation to prevent crashes during extended gameplay sessions.
Rendering Optimization: Optimized rendering processes for āghost formā playersthat contributes to a lower memory footprint in high-density areas, such as Maji Market.
Input Functionality Fix: Resolved an issue where the "A" button occasionally became unresponsive, ensuring smoother interactions.
Player Hitching: Fixed issues with player transitions from āghost formā to full visibility that reduces hitching for a smoother gameplay experience.
Crash Fixes: Resolved several triggerpoints for game crashes, such as issues with foliage and gamepad UI.
We know thereās still room to do more, and the team is hard at work to deliver additional performance improvements planned for patches 0.187 and 0.188.
I canāt connect to the Underground now 
Sometimes I think they make the port for Nintendo but they can't check before the updates if there are any errors. And fixing things for consoles after the update takes time and doesn't seem to be easy to do. So the errors accumulate with each new patch. In the previous patch I also had the background music missing, I played for a few days like that, until I deleted the game and reinstalled it directly on the Nintendo, and that made the music come back and become stable. This time it's not working.
I figured out the music glitch!!!! All you need to do is redownload the game!! :D
I already did it, but unfortunately it didn't work for me this time
I redownloaded through data management if that might help probably
I did a corruption check and then redownloaded when prompted afterwards
You reminded me of this last possibility that I didn't try! I'll try it now! Thank you
Of course!
Honestly I think they forget to check up on switch and/or canāt handle switch management anymore. Cuz they say they improved it and yet ppl are still complaining
yep, this patch in my case made things worse, which was flowing so well. In addition to the music, I've been kicked off the server, I've had difficulty leaving my plot for Kilima or Bahari, returning to my plot via the map is also giving an error, these things weren't happening before. I've already opened a ticket today. Let's wait for things to get back to normal and flow as well as before... until then, let's help each other by exchanging experiences. And when everything gets too annoying, it's best to take a break and come back later
Iām taking a break from the game rn until elder wood comes out
Great game but terrible service to switch users. They try to help but it somehow makes it worse
Iām so sad because this game is my addiction atm š I donāt want to wait until Elderwoods for switch play š
I guess i cant play š¢
The game will be even more broken when elderwoods comes out. Switch won't be able to handle it
Wellā¦a key glitch happened to me again
Same here im having that all the time today
I read your message on the music glitch since I had problems with it myself, I try it out and after some it worked, thank you very much
No problem! Gald I could help :D
for sure, if they don't fix the bugs they have now, when elderwoods comes out it's more than likely gonna be unplayable :(
Having issues with opening and adding to the night sky temple bundles ever since the patch! So frustrating!
š I canāt get pass the temple of gales because of the glitchš¤¦āāļø I finished it but the game closed itself and is asking me again to discuss with Subira. š©
I can add to it on my end but I canāt switch between the bundles š One was selected for me so Iām just focusing on that and I added a bug to it without issues. Just wish I could see the other ones. š¤Ø
Omg I was having the same problem with gales. The game would freeze when I tried to talk to Zeki, Elouisa and Caleri every once in a while and I would have to close out the game to fix it like 5 times š
I closed it many timesš± didnāt work. Never had problem with Gales before. Until this newest Subira quest. Actually after this recent update the other 2 temples would closed the game as well but managed to finished it successfully.
Uugh seems like my quick fix for the music issue has stopped working :/
Same, soooo annoying š©
Same, im losing my mind, I have things written down so I know what I need at least but I can't add anything to complete bundles
I been having that issue all day
Ditto!
Game crashes constantly now (never been this bad)... been trying to enter the temple of the gales 5 times without success. š«
I will write my impressions after playing for 2 hours straight, I stopped a few minutes ago.
I wasn't kicked from the server and I also had no difficulty going from my plot to Kilima and Bahari, I also returned to my plot without problems.
The fishing sounds came back and the control vibrated normally.
No intermittency with the A button.
I continue without the background music, sad...
I've already completed the the Night Sky temple, so I can't say if I would have difficulties with the bundles as I've read some people reporting.
I was able to finish the mission "The Strange Things Afoot" without breaking.
This is all strange and surprising at the same time.
I was thinking that maybe with the reported problems people took a break for now. Kilima was very quiet, yesterday there were a lot of people fishing together, today I didn't see anyone. Maybe this "emptying" may have stabilized the servers.
I took a photo so in the same boat 
Honestly this was my experience for the most part. I had no problem leaving my plot or going to it, no issues going to Bahari from Kilima or my plot, and the fishing didnāt bother me at all. I didnāt get sound for fishing but I just followed the visuals and the fish never left even if I didnāt respond right away to reel it in. Didnāt have background music but I listen to my own so tbh that doesnāt bother me too much. I finished the āStrange Things Afootā quest as well without problems. So idk my only small and VERY minor issues are the bundles thing and then I am having problems completing Tishās lvl 5 quest cause thereās a bug but I reported it. Other than that, I havenāt had too much many problems.
@livid folio feel you about the Night Sky Vault Bundles
Just loaded into the game for the first time in like a month and⦠I have no music 
Sounds like a common issue. But wow itās really eerie playing without background music 
Bruh the game isn't even opening for me
Well it does but then it crashes
"The software was closed because an error occurred" WHAT ERROR???????

it'd be so much better if it actually told us what/where the error is
I see the game is still a piece of āØgarbageāØ
it's a good game don'g get me wrong, i just feel like they need to be pushing out more fixes instead of adding more things
I really hate it when I canāt go forward in quests.
i realized that switch players are fighting for their lives, but in the reviews on steam for this game it's just ppl complaining ab there not being enough content
and i'm like ???? the games almost unplayable and u guys are complaining ab CONTENT
š more and more switch players are gonna take a break from the game. Or move to pc gaming
i took a break from it on switch, recently got a pc but the switch experience was so rough idk if its even worth it LMFAO
I havenāt been playing much. But this new quests update got me playing again but now Iām stuck and canāt go forward
that honestly sucks i'd lose my mind if that happened to me
Thinking of playing it in pc to see if I get through.
i've heard it runs a lot better on pc bc most of the things they fix are targetted towards pc players
they probably read my messages in here when i was talking ab it feeling like we're talking to a brick wall trying to get them to fix this game for switch š
There are more pc players and most of them are older crowd.
i'll do this thing where i leave the game for months and then come back to see if its fixed and it's always more broken than last time (on switch at least)
Switch player have to wait it out and hope next update will be betterš
switch players fighting for their lives (as always)
Iāll just wait for the next update, maybe theyāll accidentally fix some error in the softwareš
knowing the luck of it all they'll fix what was intially wrong and then a new error will pop up
that seems to be the running trend here tbh
Ah the cycle never endsš
there's always something going on with this game it's so interesting to me
like oh another game breaking bug whats new
I've been hotpotting and guess what? A button stopped working, lovely...
Normally the bug has been resolved, in any case I don't have it anymore
Hey Palians! Are you also having problems connecting to the server?
My mom's having issues connecting and she's constantly stuck on her plot since the update.
I saw that I was not the only one and that it was since the last update indeed
All we can do is file a ticket and hope they fix this issue ASAP
Can someone who didnāt complete the bundles yet confirm if this hot fix patched being able to click on sub bundles? Feel free to @ me.
not around the switch atm
The bundles aren't fixed, i sended the support a video with the problem š
Ok ty for letting me know and sending a ticket!š«¶š«āØ
I just checked it again š
Is the music still missing? 
Legit saved up for a pc during Black Friday because of how messy the switch version is
Never going back š
Yeah. Lots of issues connecting from main menu, and then mid-game when trying to travel to my plot or other places via the stable boards or by actually running there. It's pretty much unplayable...and I uninstalled, deleted saved data, and reinstalled on my machine again. š¤·āāļø Going back to Elder Scrolls Online again.
Really annoying.. it's becoming unplayable.. let's hope they fix this quickly...
Daaamn... Even my messages are not being sent anymore
I'm encountering the same issue... Iāve tried everything I transferred the data between the Switch system and the mini SD card (and vice versa), I uninstalled and reinstalled the game, nothing works... Iām desperate, without the music the game just doesnāt feel the same š¦
It didn't work for me as well.. š¦
Is anyone else experiencing a bug with the prep station not recognizing a recipe was started?
@minor flare like you don't have the ingredient for said recipe
I start a recipe on the stove and when I go to chop, the prep station doesnāt give me the chop menu where you select what you want to chop first. Instead it just says āno recipes found.ā Even though the things I need to chop are showing above the prep station. I hope that makes sense š
how long is the patch
what happened to bundles? i can no longer click to submit
It's a bug I think. Have the same issue
I'm mad too. Finally have stuff to drop and can't
same! spent 2+ hours yesterday fishing š«Ø
Anyoneās game crashing when trying to place the gardener statue at temple of the gales?
Yep, every time I try to enter the temple of the Gales the game crashes. Iām taking it as a sign to go fishing instead lol
Does anyone know, if they will fix switch issues before the next patch? š
Got good news for the night sky temple bundle problem, they development team is working on it š„°š„³
@young prism I submitted a ticket about it last night
I got a different reply back from them
Thats the second reply the other was the normal it support reply š
Here's what they said to me after I submitted a ticket
Uff, okay, i sended them also a video of the screen, i hope that they are at the problem and try to fix them š
This one was the first reply after that i maked a video š
Does the recipe use bok choy? I ran into this issue cause I forgot the patch notes said that no recipes that use bok choy work right now and I tried to make the kimchi fried rice. It auto selected the bok choy kimchi and then it wouldn't let me complete the recipe, even though I had everything when I started it... And it even used the bok choy kimchi from my storage š¤¦āāļø Every other recipe I have tried has worked.
Hmmm interesting! Sadly no, it was steamed fish. But thatās good to know!
tried making steamed fish (for subiraās weekly want) and had the same issue!
Welp, I was trapped in Kilima last night and I see that nothing has changed today! Guess I'm done with this game now. The only way it could be more broken is if it wouldn't open at all
yupā¦
that happened to me so many times š
it wouldnāt let me go anywhere instead just said āfailed to connect to serverā š
I keep getting an error about not finding the beacon.
Iām getting that error rn
Any time I have an annoying problem or glitch I go on Palia.com and report it. By next day problems are usually fixed.
There's a big sign on the bug report page that says they're aware of the problem.
on another note, itās not letting me submit stuff for the vault in the night sky temple
iāll interact with the vault but it wonāt let me select any of the bundles
anyone else having this issue?
When I could get on earlier I was lol
good to know
Good to know!! Maybe if we both report it something will happen š¤š»
Gah I thought it was just me! Ive been trying to do this part of the story since last night and finally gave up after throwing a full body tantrum because its the first update I've actually been excited for in a while, I guess I'm just gonna go play some Harvest Moon or Cattails š¤·
Okay so I think I might have done an uh oh so I had two quests active. Trouble waters with subria and business and leisure with hordari and both are in the temple of waves and now I can't use my glider in the temple. Is anyone else having trouble using their glider in the temple or is it just me?
I think maybe you should try to do Hodari's mission first, he asks for mushrooms, you can get them outside and come back. I think that way you can use the glider
hi
Hola š
Okay I'll try that thank you
Yep game crashes every time I try to enter the temple of gales to place the gardeners hub, should I send a ticket x
Yeah I think we all have to be on it with reporting issues if we want them fixed
I'm gonna submit a ticket regarding the lack of music...
Was doing the new quest last night got to the Temple of Flames and lost connection and now I'm unable to connect. I see others are having the same issues, anyone find a work around or should I submit a ticket?
Hello, guys. Do you listen to the music on Palia? Since the new patch, i canāt :(
Hey! Can anyone help me with connecting an account I made on my switch to pc?
Should be a mater of signing in 2 ur already made account
holaaa
Trying to get in to temple
of gales and it crashes the game. I saw someone else had this problem. Did anyone get it fixed or have a workaround?
Iām having the same problem and I just submitted a ticket. I think we need to flood them with tickets if we want it fixed.
@sleek notch how are ya?
fineee š and u??
Pretty good @sleek notch
thatās awesomeš¤š¼š¤š¼
I closed my game out and kept trying and it finally loaded and let me finish the quest škeep trying š«¶
Had no problems with this just done it
Hit or miss! I had to comeback to gales multiple times to check on the bug I got.
Anyone having server problems to access the underground??
I had that a few days ago wouldnāt let me enter no matter what. I think you just have to log off and back on again having so many issues past few days
š„¹š„¹š„¹i already did that but it wouldn't let me enter
Hey is anyone else having issues with fishing?
ATM I am the only one having problem with Subira quest at the temple of gales. They are working on a fix since there isnāt any workaround it. Putting this out here just incase anyone else get the same problemš©š
do you guys have music?
I do but I've seen some people complain about the background music
anybody knows how to fix the music?
What issues u have?
There were people who fixed it further up this chat but I don't remember.
There is no vibration when get bites or hook a fish. I checked the settings and reset my switch but still none. DO get the vibration for hitting rocks and bugs and all the rest.
This is on since two updates ago. I thought on the beginning that something going on with my joystic, but it wasn't. Each time I log in one thing gets fix other is bugged.
It's quite amusing overall, never know what bug we will catch š¦
Absolutely. I just stopped caring about little things. If I did I would be bold by now.š
Soo true.
As long as game is playable....I mean.....playable....I just go on. Which lately became rarity. š
Never had so many serious issues as past 2 month.
Sorry not to be able to solve ur issue. Some things are beyond me.š
No worries, thanks for asking. =)
No problem.
Welp...Tried to redo the temple of gales quest just one more time, yet I cant even stay in the server for 30 seconds without the server going out on me
Honestly same Iāve just logged off now too annoyed to keep trying
Surprisingly I tried one more time after the server connection got lost and finally finished it, now if the game crashes thats a whole other story.... So far i dont think ive seen anyone have any problems after the Temple of Gales part of the quest so im not to sure how this'll turn out
I haven't had music since the previous update š
Yknow what? Neither have I, just checked if i had music turned on cause im notorious for turning it off, but its all the way up for me š¤·
Wow you are lucky!!! I finished mine but it reverted back to last part of the temple of gales quest with Subira. And Iām stuck thereš¤¦āāļø
I think today is exceptional I've been logged off at least 10 times...the server keeps going off m tired of trying i only want to play šš
Yes! I canāt open it or if I do open my glider it wonāt stay open and I keep
plummeting into the water š„²
Hi, After the newest update I notice that I could not excess The wall inside the Night Sky Temple. šµ
People with the problem of the server disconnecting repeatedly, have you tried deleting the game and reinstalling it on Nintendo?
Yesādid not fix.
I use Pc and Hubs uses Switch. The disconnect is happening on both. My PC cant leave the lot atm. So i have been fishing on my plot for fish Plushes, caught 14 so far. and a ton of boots. PC peeps have been getting booted on and off since update also. Disconnects from servers , Crazy update.
Like any other before. Sometimes is good to just take a break. I'm and without anger. Things go wrong? Too bad. They fix, we play again. š
I am not angry, I was just saying it wasn't just switch this time. S6 just has things to work out. I find other things to do. So not sure of your meaning... a little bit under cut with a smiley doesn't work
Sorry, didn't accuse u of being angry, Ivwas talking about myself how I approach the things.
Has anyone found a workaround for the temple of gales crashing?
Honestly I did the whole quests in bits by doing other stuff in between and just logging out and I had 0 crashes for the whole quest
I didnāt have any problems until the rooted in place quest. Now I canāt get in for the life of me lol
I am also having this problem, joined here to see if anyone had a fix
is there any difference if you play handheld or not?
I have a switch lite
Hat noch jemand das Problem das er die galdur Statue nicht im Tempel der Winde abgeben kann? Bei mir wird die Software immer beendet š
I didn't have any problems until the update
I simply refuse to touch any farther the new quests due to inconsistancies. They won't go away so can wait till all is fixed
@languid hill you can do other stuff like leveling up the NPCs or the Skills
Have nothing to do other then help others...š
That's good too @languid hill
I play long enough to say I had only weekly to do till last update. So...instead frustrating myself or struggle I can wait.
I'm doing the waiting game also but in the meantime I'm just leveling up stuff up & getting money in game
Absolutely. Best time to tske care of basics as much as u don't crush every 5 min or get stuck unable to enter areas
I just get the problems like some of the other players like losing connection with servers or controllers stop working for unknown reasons
Yeah, Switch part of Palia suffered for a while. Hopefully the team will start picking up to fix it.
The vaults are still not functional, can't add anything, ehhh..
Damn it still got stuff to collect for them
Ja, das ist üblich.
Deutsch spreche ich übrigens nicht. Ich kann nur ein bisschen lesen. Google translate š
I finished the story quest and nothing helped š
@latent pike I'm sorry to hear that, what's the quest you on that got you walking in circles
I meant that I finished the new one, the end of prologue, and I hoped that the vaults would open, or something, but since the update I can't add anything š¦
@latent pike it's a bug, even I can't add anything to the Night Sky Vault Bundles
So has anyone been able to get a keyboard to work on the switch for typing if so what brand
I tried to reply to this over in the other channel. I used both a wireless and wired keyboard. They both worked but were at times finicky. Sometimes the buttons didn't work, sometimes it seemed to interrupt my gameplay so I stopped using them. You could use the keys to move in game. I didn't try a keyboard that attaches to the controller. Brand probably doesn't matter much if you are looking to get one. My wired keyboard is probably 10 yrs old and worked the same as the cheap Bluetooth one I got on Amazon.
There something I didn't know I thought you couldn't use a Blurtooth keyboard on the Switch that goes to show what I know then. So I wouldn't be able use use a USB keyboard if this is possible my TV is located at the other End of the Room you see I use a Wireless Controller but sometimes the pads, so if a wireless Keyboard is possible could I get one that fits into the Controller perhaps I be looking around now to see if is all possible I know it can be done on PS4. Thanks for The information all comes in useful. Happy designing or hunting ect.
AMAZON Would this work?
OSTENT Remote Controller Keyboard For Nintendo Switch Wireless Joy-Con Game 2.4GHz
Yes - if your switch is docked. You plug the little Bluetooth receiver into a usb port on the side of your dock. Keyboard should work immediately. I have a cheap one from Walmart but any of them that have a usb Bluetooth receiver should work.
Hey..! Switch Zone ! When I try to play it tells me to download the latest update and when I try to download the latest update it tells me I already have.. Do you also have this problem? And you know how to solve it?
Yet 15 hours ago I could still play.. I don't understand...
This is new.
That's what I understood xD
maybe try to redownload the game?
just throwing that in idk if it will do anything bad
It's an idea.. But if I uninstall it I'm not sure I can reinstall it, I've progressed a lot in the game so it takes up a lot of space on my switch, and I don't have to SD card Ć.Ć
Ur progress is also attached to ur account within game. U will restart from last autosave.
I wouldn't advice putting Palia on SD but u can try
Lot of people who had game on SD experienced additional issues.
I forgot.. š„² but it's true, you're right
Precisely.. I don't have any xD
Hey, Just a quick question, can anyone else Not start the Game on Switch?
Takes a while. How far it takes u?
I can start the and thats all when i want to load in... Or Not even that Just when i wait a min the Switch stops the Game
Yes
But i have no clue what happend it was Just from one day to the other...
Okay, but i wish the Switch would Tell me whats wrong š
I had few people redownloading the game.
Most of them said it helped but I can't confirm it 100%
Ok, i will try
U won't lose any progress and stay away from SD cards
I know, i Play on both, PC and Switch. On Switch mostly when i dont want to Turn on PC, Like now š
I would strongly recommend pc at this point.š
I know that PC ist way better. But i dont want to Turn it on for less than an hour... To Talk to the NPCs and harvesting its enough
anyone else have no music?
Just keep it asleep. Less painful for PC then starting.
Many didn't. I know some find way to get it back. Is ur game on SD or internal?
And this way shoukdn't matter how long is running.
Some had on SD and when they moved it music came back. U can try scrolling this chat to find the others solutions.
internal I think
I can't help more as is, sorry, and I have mine on internal and never had the problem
does anyone know if the lagging in bahari bay is going to get fixed? i canāt aim without it lagging and most of the shots arenāt registering and the animals lag
That doesn't work anymore
Well, nobody really said it so I just try by whatever I read. That sucks anyway.
Just here to say I hope they fix the game so I can play again. I just get too frustrated on switch and gave up.
Anyone having issues accessing the Bundles in the Temple of the Stars?
I can access the main window of each, but it doesn't highlight the sections to select any to open and donate to.
Yeah, same. I hoped the devs would fix it after the recent maintenance, but no, still not working at all
anyone loadin screen music back or
Same for me. Been the same all week. I contacted support - they said itās a known issue and theyāre working on it
My issue with the gales has been resolved since the maintenance
I literally just asked about this in the quest thread
Someone recommended just putting the items into your lockbox for now
Today they were doing quick server maint to address connectivity issues, other issues hopefully will be addressed soon.
Absolutely.
Do anybody of you play on both PC and switch? I love the graphics on PC š
But love the convenience of my switch
I play only on Switch
Itās the way I totally forgot about lockbox! I definitely used a fish or two ;-;
When u cook u can pick which fish to use too
Unless the recipe specifies
Yeah for kitchen appliances I believe but not for camp fire
But itās okay nothing more fishing canāt fix!
For both. U just highlight the fish ingredient and command pops up which fish u chose to use
If yall are open to add a party member please add me! I play mostly solo but would love to play in group šš
Interesting! Iāll try it tonight thanks :))
Welcome
How do you play from both PC and Switch? Do you have the same account? I thought you login via Steam or via Nintendo accounts, no? I tried to log in from my friend's PC, and I can't even unlogin while in the game.
If you link your Steam and Nintendo accounts to your Palia account on their website, you can bounce back and forth between the two.
@latent pike I connected my account from switch to Palia and login with email credentials but you can do steam too!
Not the maintenance while I'm doing the last puzzle of temple of gales (thank god i followed yt tutorials i thought this game was chill) a real nightmare 0/10 fun š¤£š¤£
I saw this message and immediately ran to turn my switch on, and my music is BACK šš I am a happy camper, lol
i checked earlier it wasnt there so that means ITS FIXED
Finger crossed it stays there for me! I missed the bg music so much š
Me still over here like: you guys get music?? š¤£
Speaking ofāyou guys able to put stuff in the bundles yet?
No still waiting for it to be fixed
i still dont have music š©
Me neither.
me neither
and still canāt access the temple of gales for the quest
and no bundles š
Same 
@mortal halo that's more than I've gotten
Anyone else not being able to find chapaas where there is normally loads? I need one for a quest but can't find any at all
@pine swallow I find them than I kill them without them knowing it, all the feel is my arrows š¤£
I don't have that problem but my progress in the new questline is effectively impossible because of the connectivity issues; I finished Troubled Waters, went on my merry way way to Bahari to do Into the Fire, couldn't go through so restarted the game, my quest progressed reverted back to mid Troubled Waters and now Subira is nowhere to be seen so I can't do anything. I've restarted 3 tines since and she still doesn't appear in the room
Either there's a problem with that server or they've all been hunted and haven't respawned. Switch maps, then go back. That should load you into a new server.
Keep hoping servers
I just returned to Palia after about two months of not playing. Seems like my game isnāt playing any of the background music⦠is this a known bug?? Or was there some kind of change to the game music I wasnāt aware of?
Lot of people have same issue with plenty of new ones after last update.
^^
I can't open the game at all on switch since the last update, be happy that you just have no music

Apparently they fixed connectivity issue yesterday
No they didn't, they did maintenance again today for that, and it's still not fixed
Oh I see what's happenning....every quarter way to successš
Yeah lol š
All we can do is hope and wait. There's gonna be the day all will work again. š
I'm hoping they'll takle getting the background music back soon too, I miss it a lot. Before the hotfix I did the transfer data to internal storage and got the music back but since the hotfix I lost the music again and I tried transferring back and forth but still no music 
I think u just transferred music away. š
Love how the a button still doesn't work š
It does, but you sometimes still have to press 2 or 3 times. At least it doesn't become totally unusable like it used to
Nah I did do that and it still wouldn't work
Send a ticket, cause the problem was fixed so it shouldn't fully stop working
It's only when talking to villagers too
!support
Here's a link to the Player Support: http://support.palia.com/
Definetely send a detailed ticket about it
Same š for a brief moment I got to experience the music again and it made me realise how much I miss it
Wait the a button needing to be pressed multiple times is a known bug? I thought my joy con was just being stupid.... š Kinda glad it's not me.
Anyone else crashing when using the map sometimes?
^ yeah I think so. I only crashed once while playing yesterday and it was while using the map
Yeah, the only time I crash on the switch is sometimes when I use the map.
I wouldn't expect the connectivity issues to be fixed anytime soon since it's Thanksgiving in the US this week
Hi all! Is anyone else unable to visit other player's plots?
I got a keyboard that works and it has made games play so much better
Is anyone getting kicked out of the came due to software error whenever they entered the Temple of Gales?
Yes I cannot finish the quest because at the temple of gales it says "encountered and error and kicks me off the game.
Same. My game just crashes when I try and enter the Gales for the last part of the quest š¢
Mine kept doing that too and I hooked my switch up to Ethernet cord instead of wifi and it didn't crash. š¤·š»āāļø
Finally finished the quest.
I have a palia account and it's linked to my steam on my pc. Can I play on my switch and still have everything or is it not cross progression?
As long as you have your Palia account, you should be able to sign into any platform c:
So many crashes today ughhh š„²
Came on here to see if anyone else was having this issue bc same
Oh my god. A button seems to be working. Sometimes takes multiple presses and some waiting. But far better than unplayable
Evry time i try to go to the Gales i get kicked out of the game. 3erd day in a row. It's frustrating. I cant finish my quest. Ing Ginger Snapp-per. Thank you
Haven't played since the other day, is the night sky temple working right?
I've tried playing on PC today, and even though some features like building blocks are still kind of the same (not even at times, etc), omg, such a big difference, I can actually see all the details of the furniture, my character's hair is moving, so much easier to build things, to hunt, bugs catching, they stay in your area of sight! I'm going to check the Night Sky temple vaults next, what if there are working as well!
Well yeah, the vaults work from PC.
Anyone else unable to give Najuma any gifts? I can select the menu, but it doesn't show anything being highlighted when I move my controls around, and pressing A doesn't seem to do anything either.
Yes.... just exit out of the convo & talk to her again. I have been getting that with some NPC's also
Getting a PC for xmas and I can't WAIT
I tried doing that, but it still didn't want to work... Ah well. Maybe today will be different š¤
š«°
So Is the Music not working for any of yāall as well?
It never worked for me I think. I didn't know that Palia got such beautiful music š
I played from PC and realised that it's really nice, but it can be glitchy, so I'm using YouTube. They have a video there with all the music from Palia š
Yeah, it's been gone since last update or the one before, can't recall exactly. At some point we were able to get it back by transferring the game data to internal storage but since the hotfix we recently got the music is gone again and that trick doesn't work
Darn. I hope they fix it. Miss the cartel basement tunes š¤£
I was today years old when I learned thereās supposed to be music
Hey Switch Users! Um, so Tamalaās cauldron is bugged?? Is there any way yāall have fixed this or is it just doomed until patch..
Doomed
Doomed x2
hello !! switch users i want to ask something about typing ingame, i connected my keyboard to the dock and use it for the chats. When I want to type in the chat, it will lag just a little. I'll be typing it halfway before the nintendo keyboard pops up, then ill have to type it all again. is this normal for others? how can i prevent the nintendo keyboard to pop up? so that it will jus show the words im typing in the bottom left chat corner?
anyone else having trouble getting into temples? it keeps crashing š£
Yeah ever since the new patch the temples have been buggy.. they tried fixing it with the hotfix but i guess they havent found the bug š¤·āāļø i grittet my teeth ang got trough the quest line with alot of restarts and now i dont go near them yet
thanks!! fingers crossed theyāll be able to fix it soon
Thank you for saying something! I thought it was just my switch having an issue š
Oh while Iām here, does anyone else have an issue when talking to NPCs where the options to reply or open shop or even exit the convo just disappear? Like the button choices go away and then Iām just stuck staring at the screen and have to exit the game and reopen.
That is also a known issue, it came shortly after the a button issue. I often find myself having to restart the game. I have added tickets of it to palia support but feel free to do so u too. The more ppl complaining the faster they might fix it š
Has anyone had the entire game freeze from a villager visiting their plot š
Yea, I've had to restart the game a few times
I'm doing the "show your generosity" quest right now.. every time I give someone a gift I'm having to reboot.. probably the most annoying bug I've dealt with tbh
@tall glade same
Does anyone know when update 187 is coming
Not sure if it'll be later on this month or next year
Just opened the map and it froze the game and booted me
Odd question. How come your name in palia is different than what the characters call you? Is there a way to change it to have it set to the same name?
What npcs call you is the nickname you choose when creating account
I would like to change that, but I dont think that will happen.
Try settings, if not submit a ticket pretty sure theyāll sort it out if you ask
going to my settings was the first thing i have done. havent tried the ticket yet. is, pc/switch able to connect to same account at all?
Yup, just log onto same account
I tried that the other day when i tried to log on for pc, but there was no option to login using nintendo. so, it was trying to have me make a account.
You just link the account, I play on both Nintendo and steam and use the same account
ohhh, i need to have palia downloaded? i havent tried steam yet. i use epic game store since it has palia.
Yeah I think if you have Palia in your library you can just link the account you use on switch
okay, will try that. thanks for your help.
No worries, hope you sort it š«¶š¼
same here.
Well message again if you need help
sounds good.
I just tap R to open chat and start typing immediately, without pressing A, and the Nintendo keyboard doesn't pop up.
Hey everyone, not sure if this issue has been brought up million times already. But whenever I try to login to Palia it says there are issues with Palia account services and then I get an error message saying "The software was closed because an error occured.". Has anyone been able to fix this or has it resolved from anyone experiencing this?
have you tried deleting the game and redownloading it
I have the same problem š©
I knew that the trophy heads and bug shadow boxes were glitched, but the Bahari boards are so glitched you can't even place them? I hadn't seen anyone mention that š
Does anybody want to hunt with me
!support What do you mean by Bahari boards? I'm not familiar with that item. You can fill out a ticket with support to notify S6.
Here's a link to the Player Support: http://support.palia.com/
It's the skateboard
Ah, gotcha. I think others are having a problem with them too. Sorry.
palia wiki shows the item as a floor decor. it has been like that for at least a year.
I placed them a couple months ago with no problem somehow! Then I unfortunately decided to move one
Omg does anyone else have snow on their map rn? Am I going crazy or has this always been there
I wish I could have snow on my plot as well š
you can purchase snow items from the register in front of the general store.
1000 coins for one snow pile!! š« š«£š
I'm going to be poor again š
Mfw when 25k for a pretty painting I had my eye on in the underground š (I don't even have 25k in the bank)
^
Anyone still unable to submit things to the bundles in the Night Sky Temple?
yes, make sure you upvote the post on palia support website.
I keep forgetting to send a report about that and the no sound/vibrations when fishing in bubble spot
I wanted to cover the whole plot with snow.... šš¢
š®āšØ Man the freezing is brutal on Switch at the moment (no pun intended āļø)
Hey all my friend is on the switch but hasnt have the winter wonderlights quest given, so you need to complete the game for it to trigger?
Talk to zeki I think
Youāll get something from zeki in the mailbox that starts it
Hi! Has anybody tried to access the night sky vaults on PCs? Or is it universal that the vaults canāt be accessed?
Omg me too
They work from PC just fine, I've tried
Yeah I have. It didn't fix it
Is your software up to date?
I'll check
Yeah it's up to date.
I've sent a report to player support
Uninstall and the install it again, not sure if itāll work but wonāt hurt to try
Other than that idk, sorry :((
That's ok. I'll try that
Any luck?
Still redownloading. I'll let you know
Unfortunately no. It didn't fix it. Still same issue. I hope player support can address it
Oh no, yeah hopefully šš¼
@lone lodge thanks anyway
No worries, hope you get it sorted
Anyone else have problems connecting to server then itāll connect and disconnect??
Omg the winter lights festival is so much fun, making me even more obsessed with this game lol
Two Switch specific questions from this newbie:
-
Is there any way to make it so that the tool use is a toggle instead of a hold? For example, the bug catching belt or bow? (Accessibility issue for me š)
-
Are motion controls supported?
Not too sure but you can play around with your settings and see what works best for you. Or try putting it on YouTube and see if anyoneās got videos to help
Hii! Haven't played palia on switch for a while now. Is the "trying to reconnect to the chat" a universal experience and a bug for switch? I also play on pc so yeah
Itās been happing for awhile for me itās fixed now I guess keep trying different servers and re logging
Ah yeah actually I just left my plot and now it's not happening anymoreš¤©
How do yāall aim on the switch? Hunting is painful to me
Then I just suck I guess š
We can party next time!! Im not the best but I love it and make all of my money from it
Pretty sure the answer is no but anyone know how to re-start the game? I usually start a game and play for a few hours before I decide how I actually want to play the game⦠but it seems like I canāt restart at all⦠even deleting local save wonāt delete the server saves
Have you tried making a new account?
On switch?
Just make it online and log in on switch. Might be easier
Iāll have to try thatā¦.
The ones that get down from one hit I can somehow manage these, but the ones where you have to hit multiple times, ah hell nah
You'd have to make a new Switch account as well, because your Palia account is linked and only support can unlink it.
Think itās the only way. Not too sure tho
Thanks Iāll ask support to unlink it
This was me when I first started playing haha. I can hunt everything myself now besides magic mujin
Oh yeah Iām not even trying the magic ones
Proud horn is fun. One of my fave hunts and I got a lot of plushies from it too
When u get to Bahari keep shooting every sernuk u see and let them run around. If u meet again the same one u will kill it eventually, if not, pay attention to ur compass. When the loot bag pops up on it, go and collect the sernuk u didn't kill but someone else did. š
I believe it is left stick that aims. Or might be right one. One of them. And on a beginning take ur time. More u kill better u gonna get. Also u can try slowdown arrows. More shots but sernuk is really slow so it's easier to aim
Disco deer is easy if u have dispel arrows. Hit it and try to follow. Let it calm down and hit again. If someone else kills it again: loot bag on compass is ur friend. U have about 3 irl minutes to collect it
You have to open a support ticket in "submit a request", choose "account management" and in account issue choose "account deletion". Support will contact you via email, you must follow the steps that will be informed. After your account is deactivated you can create a new one.
On the switch my game has NO sound or music š¦ this happened before and then I downloaded it right to my console as suggested and it fixed it, but with the last update, back to no musicā¦.any ideas?
I'm okay as long as the animals hold still, lol. I mostly go after sernuk and one-shot chapaas.
This is happening to me, too. Reinstalled it after last update, still no music. I submitted a ticket but never got a response beyond the auto reply and now the ticket is āsolvedā on the website. Itās weird playing without the music š
Iāve got no music too, and any time I try and play hot pot I get stuck and canāt interact with anything. Even the unstuck doesnāt get me unstuck š
Wonāt let me login, anyone else got the same problem?
S6 is trying to tell u that u play too much....š š¤£
Honestly, only game I play š¤¦š»āāļø
Then they want u to have a break...š¤, but more serious, yeah. Logging in can be a challenge sometimes. There are times that I got stuck on opening screen but when I gave it tad longer it would load up
I think it was connectivity issues, WiFi acts up when the weather is bad.
Thank you for replying tho :))
As usual: welcome. And no joking: we Switch players have lot of issues to deal with.
Can someone tell me why isn't the palium bar getting detected by the quest? I already had it in the inventory box at home and the glass too so i don't have an idea why isn't detected
That looks like a silver bar to me, pal bar is more purple
Haha no no it was pal but i took the picture with my phone and the colors seemed off but it was palium
I think it was a bug i had to make one from scratch and it got detected
Thank u though
honestly same so i adjust the aiming sensitivity to make life easier lol
Ugh is anyoneās game glitching when ncps come over and getting stuck
Are the vault bundles bugged? I cannot interact with the bundles
yeah they are bugged
Yep. What I do is equip watering can, water crops and then talk. Also tried to just equip watering can, run around for short while and then talk to NPC. That cured the stuck
Oooo thank you, was romancing hondori and I couldnāt stop giggling š¤
Feel bad for Hotdaddy to go through it. šš¤š š¤£
Any switch peeps want me to vote for their house
Me please! With this one
My house is very much a wip but some rooms are pretty much done
Me too please. Jwhit mama is my name I will vote for both of you!
Oh really? Ima try that next time cause that getting stuck problem is so annoying
Works for me every time. If I talk to them right up then gets stuck and I would have to restart
Good night Switch Palians!
have they changed the controls? why is it rumbling everytime i jump..
game crashed and i cant get back in 
omfg i was all the way at the temple of gales and it took me to bahari stables...
omfg it crashes every time i get to temple of gales
Anyone know if the bug with the Night Sky Temple is fixed yet?
Probably not
don't think so š¦
i wonder how long it'll be before switch users can hear music and do important quests again lol
@faint kernel @tall glade thanks for the answer, that's a shame š
hi does anyone know why my game keeps crashing and saying error whenever i enter the temple of the gales
Here's a link to the Player Support: http://support.palia.com/
you're welcome it's a shame
No news on any fixes or how this will be resolved?
sing 6 have acknowledged the issues but not given any more info
Anyone else have this issue on switch where if they try to do multiple chat categories in one convo you lose ability to select? I completed a quest, did the regular friend chat and usually whenever I try to do the flirt in the same convo, I lose ability to select flirt options, or continue chat.
Yezz. I just back out and then chat again or exit game then go bck. Switch is not the best when it comes to palia. Was gd with the newest update but then like all Palia updates comes more issues with existing ones.
Good to know itās not just me. Thx!
Just press B and then flirt
Or select asking for weekly then return.
Works for me
Has tamalas cauldron been fixed ive been stuck on a quest for weeks now but I need tamalas cauldron to finish as it links with two other quests I've messaged them about 2 or 3 times about it now
No, but itās now a Known Issue. Please upvote it at the Support page so S6 knows how many players are affected. https://support.palia.com/hc/en-us/community/posts/32518213388052-Unable-to-interact-with-Tamala-s-Cauldron
I'm having a problem with backing out of the map or talking for quests. Backing out with the B button and I can still use it to jump
So it's not my switch. Is there a way to fix this?
Sorry I meant to add for palia on the switch
Try this first. If that doesnāt work, shut your Switch down by holding down the power button. #š²āconsole-zone message
How to I fix how blurry the game is in handheld mode? There are no display settings to adjust
My eyes are staring to hurt š
Iāve been having the same issue
It was an issue in the past so they probably just did a bandage fix like so many others and now itās back like the rest of. I have switch and it is a struggle and they should have never released to switch so soon. I have played since the release a year ago in a few days and almost every single issue has come back and with every update new one arises. It would be nice to at least permanently fix issues and bugs that are almost a year old and not do a bandaid fix. Also I warn switch users not to buy anything from the shop until they fix tool skin, pet, and outfit bugs permanently because those bugs come back and affect my game. I donāt use items I purchased and it helps. Ever since they added the collection with tool skins, favorite outfits, pets, tool skin and new emotes and the Maji market was affected itās not been good. I love the game and Im hoping like every switch users the Elderwoods is the make it or break it for me. I really hope they can get it right and I donāt hold them accountable for switch issues but they new what they signed up for and still selling lemons to switch users.
Does anyone else have an issue of not being able to click a dialogue option and having to force close the game? Itās annoying bc it takes palia 10 years to load in
Yes I've had this happen and I've had it freeze on me so I had to close out entirely and start it up again
They more than likely won't have it fixed until the next update/patch. The cauldron is tied in with the bundles, as it works in similarity to them.
Villagers affected by this issue:
Reth
Zeki
Tish
And a hidden quest for Tamala
So I wouldn't get your hopes up of them fixing the issue until closer to the end of this month. That seems to be when S6 does there updates. Hopefully before the holidays but may be in early next year when Elderwood comes out (hope not).
It just happened to me again 
Unfortunately it's going to happen from time and time again š„²
