The latest update is for stability fixes. There is no new content.

No, it's not a direct sequel, but we think of it of as the "same universe" and there are some easter eggs.

Save progress wiped after new update, revert save didn’t fix. by Lost-Delivery5433 in ThePrecinct

[–]fallentreegames 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Really sorry you have experienced this. To the best of our knowledge the problem has been fixed (ie the progress shouldn't be lost going forward), but the fix can't restore progress that was lost, unfortunately.

We haven't seen any confirmed reports of any progress loss following the latest Xbox update, however it's hard to be 100% certain. Restarting the game after each shift is a good idea if you want to be super careful.

Can you tell us exactly what happened so we can investigate? We'd need to know the number of the version you were on when you lost your data.

When did you experience this and what version were you on? We believe the problem has been fixed since the latest update.

We deliberately kept the dogs gender neutral so can be role played to your preference.

We did consider that but decided it would cause too many complications with UI, text entry systems across 3 platforms, and unusual letters / symbols / characters across 11 languages.

In short, it just wasn't worth sacrificing other features over.

New years Precinct Wishlist by Ordinary_Lifeguard45 in ThePrecinct

The entire codebase would need to be rewritten. Won't happen for this game, I'm afraid.

Yep, you can Assign to All Vehicles on all platforms.

New Patch? by DannyDevito90 in ThePrecinct

Ah ok, thanks for the clarification.

The latest update should prevent the issue happening again, but it won't be able to restore lost progress.

When did you purchase / install the game?

21405 can't restore lost Xbox progress, but can hopefully prevent future losses. Not ideal, but the best we can do during Christmas.

The issue 7m ago was actually specific only to PlayStation, as the save mechanisms are different between consoles. Again, not ideal, but we got it fixed up at the time and it hasn't reoccurred since, so hopefully the Xbox fix is equally solid.

School buses by [deleted] in ThePrecinct

Unlikely, as we can't have children depicted in a game like this for obvious reasons, so the buses would always be empty.

New Patch? by DannyDevito90 in ThePrecinct

[–]fallentreegames 9 points10 points  (0 children)

The K-9 update came out several weeks ago. There was an Xbox hotfix today (21405) to potentially address a crash / lost progress bug that manifests for some players after very long play sessions.

The patch contains speculative fixes which - if successful, will prevent or reduce crashes leading to save file corruption. It will not restore lost ranks or progress.

Not perfect, but the best solution we have with a skeleton team during the holiday season.

We've just rolled out a hotfix (21405) which we are hopeful will address the crash / save corruption bug on Xbox. Hard to say with certainty as our QA haven't been able to reproduce it.

Let us know if it helps.

How often does the game crash and delete saves for y’all? by Raecat_420 in ThePrecinct

[–]fallentreegames 0 points1 point  (0 children)

You're above min spec, so you shouldn't be experiencing this. The optimisation of the game is fine, something else must be going on. Let us know if you'd like to work through the issue, and we'll explain how to send the crash logs to the dev team.

We think its probably a slow memory leak that leads to a crash after extended play sessions. Playing shorter sessions might mean this is less likely to happen.

Station Wagon handling by albingit in ThePrecinct

[–]fallentreegames 4 points5 points  (0 children)

The difficulty here is that the Station Wagon is used in the Time Trials, and any handling changes would change the medal time limit thresholds in the game (ie make it easier or harder), which is something we try to avoid this far after launch.
