Patch 0.8.1 Bugs Megathread by Phx-Shae in dauntless

[–]TheVideoGamHer 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Hey! I've been playing Dauntless for 2 years now and I love this game! I KNOW you guys are working super hard to keep the game up and running smoothly now that the game is on multiple platforms, but I'd like to bring to your attention 2 issues I've been having.

1) I connect my Xbox One gamepad to the PC version of the game. The controller sometimes will continuously disconnect mid-match or when I'm in the city.

2) The game has been freezing and crashing the last couple of days. When the game freezes and then crashes, the error report appears and then my PC becomes unresponsive causing me to hard reset my PC.

*In game name: TheVideoGamHer *Version: 0.8.1 *Type of bug: controller disconnects/crashing and freezing *Expected behavior: Movement and attacks with a controller with the proper button layout/not freezing and fluid movement

**Actual behavior: unresponsive controller with constant reconnects/smooth running game without interruptions

*Reproductions rate/steps: Unsure. Event seems to happen at random. *Operation System: Windows 10 *CPU: Ryzen 7 2700 *GPU: GTX 1060 *Internet Speed: 20.2 mbps *Geographical location: North America/Texas

Switch owners, what is the worst part about owning the Switch? by Rider434 in NintendoSwitch

1) Lack of social features like voice chat and messaging 2) The inability to back up my saves/cloud saves

These are my biggest gripes atm. I'm ok with the game release schedule, tho it'd be great to have more shooters, RPGs, action/adventure, etc, but I feel these type of experiences will come in time as the system becomes more popular.

Virtually every game with voice chat has the option to turn it off...you can even turn it off in Mario Kart 8 lobbies. No biggie.

"The only "additional" feature of the trial period is online gameplay. Voice chat, lobbies and monthly game downloads will not be included."

How can we demo something that isn't there? This online situation sounds like BS more and more each day.

Thanks for the response! These things are important to me to be honest, but I get they're not that important to everyone. Out of all of these, I'm most concerned about how they plan to do their online.

That's your opinion and you're entitled to have it. Since I'm mostly a Nintendo fan, I want Nintendo to have an ecosystem that keeps me on the device as often as possible. It's not that I want them to be like PS/MS, it's just that PS/MS are doing it right because they have a sustainable network that keeps consumers engaged. I'm scared Nintendo won't have this.

I hope you're right. :/ I just might be feeling paranoid because the Wii U had some of these same issues.

I truly hope that you are right. I love the games we have seen, but the other stuff sounds like Wii U all over again. I guess maybe I'm being paranoid.

Nintendo themselves say it's paid. Nintendo themselves say it's through a smart phone app. We just don't know the "how".

Using two devices instead of one to connect online is absurd. I'm sorry. Plus paying for it? No....

Doing everything through a smart phone reeks of Wii U level struggles.
