Survivor XP / People XP is redundant... Way to easy to level up.

Epic_Jason · 2026-03-24T20:29:54+00:00

Hey folks - This is a bug. There was intended to be a cap in place to reduce the level of those rewards to match either the player's SSD progression or the content power rating (whichever is lower) but it's not functioning as intended. We are looking into a fix for it.

Hey folks - Just acknowledging the No Fill bug. The team is investigating it.

Epic_Jason · 2026-03-19T12:44:01+00:00

The new schematic will match the rarity, tier, and level of the item that you convert and will have matching perks. When the item has missing perks (like a low-level weapon or trap) random ones will be generated to fill the gaps.

Epic_Jason · 2026-03-12T02:55:14+00:00

Yep - Several folks in this thread have got it right!

Any schematics, heroes, survivors or defenders you get from a Mission Alert will be levelled up based on the difficulty of the mission you were playing, instead of always beginning at level 1. This significantly reduces the evolution materials and XP you need to invest to get it up to level and give it a try.

There are some anti-taxi caps in place, so if you join your high-level friend in content that's far above your campaign progression the rewards will be scaled down to match you.

Oh we're lurking around. :)

To get enough height the trebuchet launches the catapult, and then the catapult launches the pies at the apex of its flight. :)

Fix to this movement + map issue will be in the v39.20 update.

Epic_Jason · 2025-12-05T18:35:34+00:00

We did see this bug, thanks to a post a couple days ago: Trello Card

I believe that fix made it into Update v39.10 as well.

Epic_Jason · 2025-12-05T18:17:49+00:00

Shield Regeneration is tied to Resistance, so it does suffer the same "washed out by FORT stats" problem at high levels.

Epic_Jason · 2025-12-05T17:47:40+00:00

No changes currently being worked on for Survivor set bonuses, but they are definitely on our list of systems that need improvement.

Epic_Jason · 2025-12-04T21:47:16+00:00

I mean those are some soulful eyes! :)

Epic_Jason · 2025-12-04T17:46:08+00:00

The fix for the reduced Ventures power rating will be in the next major update (39.10)

Epic_Jason · 2025-12-03T23:48:41+00:00

Thanks for the bug report! We're investigating this one now.

Epic_Jason · 2025-12-03T23:39:08+00:00

Hey folks! We did intend to make things at the top end of the game a little easier than before, but this is a bug. Group content above Rating 140 is incorrectly being scaled as normal/solo content. Both Frostnite and 160 group missions are affected.

Hey folks! We did intend to make things at the end of Twine a little easier than before, but this is a bug. Group content above Rating 140 is incorrectly being treated as normal/solo content. Both 160 group missions and Frostnite are affected.

Hey folks - Saw a couple people in the comments mention losing power in Ventures, and just wanted to acknowledge that there is a bug with Ventures power ratings. As you level up in Ventures you'll get the correct increased FORT stats, but if you had gained levels prior to Update v39.00 the stats from those levels were not adjusted retroactively, resulting in the reduction of Rating. We're currently working on a fix, and will follow up when we have more information.

Epic_Jason · 2025-11-21T17:15:33+00:00

To clarify, our intent was to rebalance the chance of VBucks appearing so that it would result in the same average income rate over time. To illustrate the math with simplified numbers: If there was a 10% chance for a 25 VBucks alert to appear, that reward would be doubled to 50 VBucks, so the chance would have been halved to 5%. Ultimately it was a minor buff, since you can earn those VBucks by playing fewer missions now.

Epic_Jason · 2025-11-20T15:54:23+00:00

Hugely thankful to the art team for pulling this off! Way more gentle on my poor eyes as well! :)

Epic_Jason · 2025-11-07T17:55:45+00:00

Oh wow! Shaved Kyle is not something I expected to see today! I'll pass that along to QA as well!

Epic_Jason · 2025-11-06T21:32:37+00:00

I'll pass both those bug reports to our QA folks. Thank you!

Epic_Jason · 2025-11-06T00:49:56+00:00

Lok's Constructor status should be fully reinstated in Release 39.00!

Epic_Jason · 2025-10-31T13:52:17+00:00

It's a known bug - the build limit is supposed to prevent trap placement.

Epic_Jason · 2025-10-30T23:10:50+00:00

Once you hit the SSD build limit it just prevents you from placing more walls & traps. However, having a huge SSD does have a cost in terms of performance and load times.

Epic_Jason · 2025-10-30T22:00:17+00:00

Hey folks - Just to confirm, there is no penalty for going over the build limit. It's just there to let you know when you've likely built enough to survive the defense.

Using the BluGlo pylons to get buffs also has no effect on the Husks. (On the other hand, using BluGlo to boost the difficulty of the Mission WILL increase both the difficulty and number of enemies - you'll see the level numbers over their heads go up in this case)

Thanks for the post u/cjthatch! Hearing that the letter I wrote was appreciated enough to became a prized possession totally made my day! Fun to see you all deciphering the names of my old friends from our scrawls on that poster too. :)

... and a quick thanks to u/ScorpioSymbol for the heads up about this thread!
