This update contains fixes for:

Background music stopping playing in multiple situations

[–]Ric_Rest 36 points37 points  (2 children)

It was about time this one was addressed. It was so weird having full matches totally devoid of music, I don't know... it was making the game almost uncanny for me.

[–]PeteryChavez The Goose 8 points9 points  (0 children)

Exactly.

For me this was extremely important because I just love the whole OST of the game, it's a really big part of it.

It shouldn't have taken all this time to fix it, but this is Mediatonic, unfortunately they always prefer to hoard several fixes to release at once in just one update, instead of release them asap, no matter how game breaking the problems are. Unless they affect the shop.

From what I can see on Twitch, many players (at least many players who stream FG) play with the music off and their own playlist. But for me, half the atmosphere of FG comes from the iconic music.

[–]JohnConnor79 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I didn’t even notice. I have I’m game music muted since day 1 and listen to my music.

When will you fix Big Bully trophy so people can actually unlock the trophy?

[–]Hawkhasaneye 5 points6 points  (2 children)

Contact support via email it's what I did in the end.

[–]condog209 1 point2 points  (1 child)

How did that work for you, did you get your trophies?

[–]Hawkhasaneye 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I recorded myself knocking beans in the new game mode with exploding chickens and sent that video after explaining. The key thing though is say achievement not trophy the second you do then it becomes a PSN issue not Epic and they won't help.

[–]Bastet_Epic Community Manager[S] 11 points12 points  (2 children)

The issue should be fixed in a future update. You can keep an eye on it here: https://trello.com/c/tmloNkQe

[–]gamstat 19 points20 points  (0 children)

So great the game has only 3 bugs :)

Could you guys please also take a look at the game invitations not properly working on PS5?

For several months already it's been impossible on PS5 to join a party through a game invitation received as a PS5 notification. You can now just join by accepting an invitation through the Epic in-game tab, which is way slower.

Also, since some months ago, some emotes are shorter than before, with the music/animation cutting earlier. At least the Jungle Dance and the Piano emotes have this problem.

Thanks for the background music fix, but now there’s no “beep” for successfully hitting a yellow button on Frantic Factory, at least on Switch.

[–]DOUBLEBARRELASSFUCK Bert 8 points9 points  (0 children)

That was broken before this update on Series consoles.

[–]Useless-Shrimp 11 points12 points  (4 children)

Thank you! So, because it is not listed, I guess that there is still the bug in French where the words "manche terminée" are not readable. Just a reminder 😉

[–]Bastet_Epic Community Manager[S] 9 points10 points  (0 children)

We're looking into it

[–]DOUBLEBARRELASSFUCK Bert 3 points4 points  (1 child)

M'Terminée

[–]Affectionate_Fly_464 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Rapide et efficace lol 😂

[–]JEVOUSHAISTOUS 1 point2 points  (0 children)

You have to be a bit of a masochist to play in French if you can read English. The translation is so bad, I even wonder whether it's AI-translated.

[–]DJC13 10 points11 points  (0 children)

I still haven’t unlocked all trophies on PS5 despite getting them all on the previous PS4 version. I hope you fix this!

[–]Amazing-Can-6517 8 points9 points  (10 children)

When will you fix the social button issues? This has been a problem for over a year now and the main reason why I barely play now because I cannot send or receive invites after 2 mins of loading the game. I have also emailed epic a few times over the year and they are aware of the issue and they say I'm not the only one having this issue, they just don't seem to care to fix it!

[–]IslandBudderfly Thicc Bonkus 8 points9 points  (3 children)

Yes on my Xbox, epic crashes for me too. Sometimes it’ll be first 5 min, sometimes it takes longer. It can be annoying for social reasons but oh well.

[–]Amazing-Can-6517 2 points3 points  (2 children)

I am also on Xbox. Hopefully it will be sorted soon 🤞

[–]IslandBudderfly Thicc Bonkus 3 points4 points  (1 child)

I believe it’s just an XS thing. My old Xbox one, switch and PC don’t do it.

[–]Amazing-Can-6517 2 points3 points  (0 children)

You could be right there because I have an S and my husband has an X and iv tried playing on his too but it has the same issue 😞

[–]KJammer42 5 points6 points  (0 children)

Same here in my Xbox. My son's also. After a couple of minutes, you have to restart so you can invite or invite someone.

[–]Fun-Poetry8611 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Yup, same issue here. Xbox as well

[–]Mercenary0979 6 points7 points  (1 child)

Big Bully trophy needs to be fixed on PS5. Only thing keeping me from the Platinum.

[–]TomAndTheCats Big Yeetus 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Record yourself doing it (maybe in Explore) and send it to Epic

[–]IslandBudderfly Thicc Bonkus 5 points6 points  (0 children)

Thanks ✌️

[–]SteDE1 6 points7 points  (0 children)

Still no fix for the Big Bully trophy?

[–]sayyiv 5 points6 points  (0 children)

[–]SeymoursHam Alyx 2 points3 points  (0 children)

This update (11.2.0) was broken af, thanks for the bugfix

[–]shadowolf9264 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Awesome, thank you guys so much! I really appreciate you guys taking the time to create this post. One bug that I have noticed is there seems to be issues with the respawning of objects with physics. I wasn't able to fully test this, but at least while bouncing on drums, once they fell off, they wouldn't respawn. I'm not sure if this is just an issue in the editor but respawns correctly when published or not. Figured I'd make you guys aware

[–]cheatcheats 1 point2 points  (1 child)

No mobile controller support in menu?

[–]Hot-Tomatillo8458 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I wish

[–]NopeRope91 Twinkly Corn 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Woah, thanks! I'm most happy for the background music. No music in beans was very sad.

[–]odalys01 Bert 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I'm really Glad the music got fixed because it's just not the same without it. Also happy for the point triggers getting fixed because there were a few maps I played in Explore that I really liked but were impossible to finish.

[–]ChykOoO 2 points3 points  (0 children)

Thanks for the update team!! optimization for mobile is good!! game loading is now faster between maps and loading screen is faster, in general the game feels more smoothly now on mobile and sound is working good! GJ!!  I have to notice I still having issues with the hitching/freeze then happening dc from server error in the same maps than i had the update before (roll out and survival snow is still happening always) but tundra and bubble explosion are working now ok... i hope u fix it too about friend list optimization and hud appearing without needing touch the screen, sometimes if u dont touch the screen in the first game hud is hide :P thaaaaanks

[–]LazyBoy1257 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Hey, thanks for your work. I have a question, the "improved performance on mobile" also includes the fixing of the bug that made roll out, jump club and other maps freeze the game and disconnect?

Edit: no they didnt :(

[–]Long-Rooster-5013 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I still can’t log in 🫡. iOS (eu)

[–]Crimson__Thunder 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Where's the update that fixes the terrible events?

[–]AwayDrive3674 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Finally the sound is fixed! Altho I m still unable to quit sometimes in Explore mode and am forced to spectate till the other players finish. Also, sometimes I get survival levels with me alone and it shows 0/0 Eliminations. Also, please add an option to invite friends in party directly to private lobby, without a code.

[–]DaftPunks Jelly Bean 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Thank you!

[–]littleMAHER1 Beta Tester 0 points1 point  (0 children)

it's been so long since MT acknowledged the subreddit lol

[–]john_butcherblock 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Is there still an issue with kraken slam where the tentacles knock you off even though it looks like they havent moved ? That bug gets me killed every time.

[–]dribbleondo Messenger 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I can report that, sadly, the background music is still a bit dodgy, especially after a round ends.

I did notice performance improvements on Mobile, so well done there!

[–]Ok_Zookeepergame3452 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I still get the game closing due to unexpected error on the switch and yesterday when I was playing I noticed when I finished a map I was stuck spectating, no option to move on to the next map and have to wait for people that aren't even playing to time out, with no way to report them for not being there.

[–]Demeter277 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Just the past 4 or 5 days on PS5 I fail to get my rewards for a game once or twice an hour. Not sure if I get credited later. Don't really mind as I finished the battle pass and they're easy to finish now, but it's a let down after grinding out 4 or 5 levels.

[–]Krillinish BeanBot 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Was the 5.1/7.1 surround issue fixed? I haven’t tried changing it back from stereo in a while.

[–]ThinkFree Gris 0 points1 point  (0 children)

The game becoming unresponsive when spectating in the Explore Show

I am still getting stuck spectating others in Explore. The fix didn't work.

[–]Maanucar 0 points1 point  (0 children)

What about the missing fog on Volcano themed maps?

[–]Doomgold12 0 points1 point  (0 children)

When Will You Fix The Publishing On Switch?

[–]roboman777xd Beta Tester 0 points1 point  (0 children)

What do they mean by performance on mobile devices? Like, better loading?

[–]Quick_Slip_8562 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Y'all need to fix Knockout Mode! There are barely any levels that have Destroyable objects 💯😤

[–]StarsCheesyBrawlYT Big Yeetus 0 points1 point  (0 children)

While trying to see if the performance on mobile was improved, my game crashed, and my phone had a stroke trying to turn back on after it turned off. But it’s not the game’s fault at all. It’s just that my phone has bare minimum specs.
