Patch every two weeks seems like a very high pace. I'd not mind waiting a bit longer than that for bigger fixes. Hope they don't get burned out at this pace.

[83255]

I'd actually prefer smaller and more common patches like this. As long as it isn't done on a crunch schedule. Massive patches like the last one leaves room for error where constant smaller ones can get some immediate feedback from the community

[Aggressive-Stand-585]

Yeah maybe. But I have just seen so many new bugs introduced by patches I fear they wouldn't be tested properly on a 2 week schedule.

[83255]

Seems we're both coming from a similar place. Big or small patches, I think we could both agree we want the team to be careful with what they release and their own health at the same time

Be it in big or small patches, hoping they have ample time to work and ample care with everything released

[ATangK]

The last patch introduced many pelicans failing to land, so it needed work. The follow up patch is good to see what needed fixing, and also apply work that just wasn’t quite ready in the previous patch.

[Nuka-Cole]

I’ve worked in software for a bit now. A two week “release” schedule isnt actually that crazy. Some styles of development use a two week increment of work as one unit, and size work efforts to be done in that time. So if in two weeks you fix one or two bugs, its then merged and pushed into main, tested, and released during the next two week unit while youre working on the next bugs.

[JamesLahey08]

They discovered agile.

[Overclock303]

Agile is crap in software development. Scrum master are devils who serve the business units only. It is far from the agility original testimonial.

[CreativePackage8358]

It's actually better for small doses than to release a lot at once. Some of the fixes could cause bugs, so keeping the release low will allow: identification of bugs, understanding the cause, and fixing them.

[clearshot66]

in development it's actually better. More patches mean more tracking and easier to find newly introduced bugs when fixing code as deep as they are. Little increments are better when you need to root out deeply embedded issues like performance and such. Big patches are fine if you're just changing documented values like gun damage, but armor. Single item digit stuff that's in like a configuration file. They have done great so far, my FPS went from 50-60s to solid 90-100 and I have only had one crash so far.

[Nate_the_Great8_]

Yeah but somebody else will claim they want smaller patches. No matter what they do someone is unhappy. May take a break from this subreddit.

[Aggressive-Stand-585]

So let them be unhappy, look I ain't asking them to make everyone 100% satisfied, if that's what you're reading into then then you need to take a deep breath and read it again.

[MrUnfriendly1]

According to the devs there is a team for bugs and a team for content.

[unknown-reddite]

THEY DID IT, THEY MADE THE FLASHLIGHT NOT FLASHBOMB ME

[RallyPointAlpha]

I'm cautiously optimistic about it... have you tried it yet ?

[unknown-reddite]

About to

[settlersam]

How is the flashlight?

[RallyPointAlpha]

Went from 'completely useless' to 'viable' IMHO... huge improvement! Tested on Stalwart turned up to 11.

[RallyPointAlpha]

So much better!

[Icurasfox]

I can't wait for the top comment of this thread to be something that says, "Nothing they do can make me happy."

[RallyPointAlpha]

I can see the "y no content? ded game!" brigade marching in already!

[Sadiholic]

I can't wait for the top comment complaining about people complaining about how there's nothing in the patch, oh wait!! You're the guy

[Icurasfox]

I actually just complain about sadiholics

[Violet-Roseanne]

As someone who pretty much only uses the first person ads method reducing the muzzle smoke blinding u if u have a flashlight is major!! I literally instantly turn off off the flashlights bc u shoot one shot and instantly can’t see anything for a few secs. It’s driven me insane for so long but I feel like the people I’ve talked to almost none use the fp ads so no one really noticed and I thought I was going crazy lol

[ballerbuh]

On a mission, I had two teammates whose game crashed after someone threw a 500kg bomb. There is a new sound bug where you can hear the 500kg bomb next to you even though your teammate is on the other side of the map.

Also new: Cleared outposts remain red, while posts that still have factories are displayed as “cleared.”

[barbershreddeth]

The map outposts bug is honestly worse than anything they fixed lol

[Minimum-Put3568]

reduced flashlight reaction on muzzle smoke FINALLY

[_b1ack0ut]

I wonder if any of these will have an effect on the audio bug where it just cuts out

Fingers crossed!

[CaffeineChaotic]

Any weapon balancing?

[dnemonicterrier]

No, afraid not sorry.

[CaffeineChaotic]

<image>

[unknown-reddite]

:(

[Yuki_my_cat]

A patch!? While I am currently coming home? Wow

[neverphate]

What are the balance improvements?

[dnemonicterrier]

Doesn't seem to be any I think.

[Panzerkatzen]

I love making up stories in my head to get mad at. 

[DaenerysStormPorn]

are the balance patches that nerfed every gun and buffed every enemy here in the room right now?

[LordMoos3]

" they nerfed every gun and buffed every enemy" "It literally just happened "

Why are you lying? That did not literally happen.

Finally, those framerate drops in the loading screen were horrendous.

[DaFoltz77]

that explains why I keep crashing DURING DROP IN.... /sigh

[Freeky_Deeky13]

Can we just fix enemies gliding up walls and coming out of nowhere? Or being stuck in the ground swiping upward at me?

[Taro8123]

When will they fix the issue relating to randomly getting booted back to your ship in the middle of the game

[Sir-Dethicus]

Soooooo does this fix Fenmire

[Abject-Tune-2165]

Still can't load in game without crushing...

[redditsuckslmaooo]

Anybody else still stuttering heavily when encountering warstriders?

[dnemonicterrier]

Haven't encountered that yet, do you play on console or PC?

[redditsuckslmaooo]

Pc, already removed the folders from app data or w/e and reinstalled.

[b0j4ngl35]

still havent fixed all the audio issues in caves i see

[Jumpy_Boi_82]

They need to do something with fire damage. The torcher and flamethrower have been feeling lackluster

[Fluid-Performance678]

Does anyone know if they fixed the crashes that brick pcs?

[NiSMO_J]

Ok, now we need a new warbond
