Please pay for the game but don't play it to be safe …
I can confirm that alt+F4 imediatly works. Have prevented a wipe 4 times now
I’m not playing this game till the crashes are fixed the lag is fixed the servers are fixed and the losing gear bug is fixed great game but wow horrible start
I don't understand why they don't just allow for local/p2p option for players to play without the server, they could have "official" or "ladder" characters require the server side saves but have a local one you can opt to play instead if you wanted to forgo all the server issues and just play with friends.
It always hurts as a gamer to watch games shit the bed on launch.
Just happened to me around 6pm est. I'm done with the game if I have to start over. I grinded too hard and had my best day today with the trickster
I lost my inventory when I turned it on earlier today. Very disappointing 😞
Solution to not see bugs: dont play.
Lol this shit need to stop
I logged over 50 hours in the game solo. I played multiplayer for the first time this weekend and it happened.
I'm just….done with AAA games. Maybe 10% of the games I buy that are considered AAA are released without bugs/crashes/major flaws. I hope to all hell that The Show's first release on xbox is not broken when that comes out in a couple weeks since my wife got it for me as a birthday gift (she let it slip). I hope it's great but either way, it's the last AAA game I will bother playng. I was excited about Biomutant but frankly since that game has been in the making for like 6 years supposedly, I'm not all that pumped anymore after some other releases in long development cycles. It's just disgusting and no longer worth my time and frustration playing these full-price games that are broken or released as beta's only the developers are too chicken shit to tell us that. I was already kinda getting bored with this game due to the lack of variety in the gameplay but the bug was enough for me to hit the uninstall. I don't even care about getting my stuff back, I'm out like a trout.
So, how how did you get over 60 shotgun ammo?? I can't get.anymore than 24!
Few hundred hours in anthem! What haha
I absolutely regret buying this game..
I've dropped it for now as a main ARPG player I can't handle losing my entire inventory, Path of Exile's new league is this Friday so I'll come back to Outriders some day, it served its purpose for now.
If it keeps going it will end up like cyberpunk another dust collector
What a great time to take a break. Im overloaded with outriders atm.
I’m not touching my level 30 trickster until I hear good news because this shit is perplexing. Yesterday I was trying to co-op friends with my devastator and Bam first thing inventory wipe . not surprised I didn’t think I was immune to the issues of the world and gaming so it’s all good I’m guessing it gets fixed
Do you know if this is happening more on Consol or PC
Told my buds we shouldn't play main lvl 30 characters today so leveled alts instead. Around 9pst we decided to just do a few hunts on main to get legendary and on 2nd hunt I crashed and loaded in with nothing. Despite attempting the close game and reload it was done and my wt15 character was gone. Seriously – Take a break if you want to save your progress. Over 100 hours in the demo and likely another post launch currently down the drain.
Who else is power leveling at world tier one baby
For many people like myself the game is already “dead”. I’m at the point we’re I can’t play online with friends or randoms and I’m to scared to log in and possibly lose my gear. It’s just one bad thing after another with this game. Many of my friends have already got a refund on steam even after they put 40 plus hours into it. I honestly don’t blame anyone who does request a refund. Imagine putting in 40-80 hours to just lose your entire inventory.
I'm guessing their anti cheat software implemented within the game is the culprit…
Infinite shotgun ammo? How? Just how?
This isn't a commonplace error its a a couple thousand being affected. People need to stop acting like its the apocalypse. in the last 24 hours steam counted 95k players. this doesn't include epic store, stadia, xbox or playstation. To say this is common place would imply atleast a quarter of this players are being effected. and from the reddit threat theres somewhere between 2,000 and 8,000 comments on it. I'd bet money on those 8,000 don't all have the bug and are just jumping on the rage train. To say it shouldn't be in the game is stating the obvious. It obviously didn't appear in any post demo QA work done. IT was in the demo and they fixed it in said demo. You can't assume the root cause of the problem is the same again. To suggest they don't have a handle on it is a disingenuous to the individuals that are working on this. There isn't some miracle fix all button they can hit that will just magically fix the bug. they need to find the root cause as they obviously thought they had but it was masquerading as something else. And this is a normal occurrence in any sort of code development. a single problem can easily have multiple causes where the 2nd is hidden by the first.
This game could be succesful. But it's just kills itself with a launch like this.
Playing solo all the way. So far so good. Will stop it till things go back to normal. Take a break lol
This game will survive where others failed.
Addictive. An addictive game where the highs are so good, will survive.
They can fix this, put the game on sale for $20 and eventually release free and sell an expansion.
Outriders will be a series.
What you are saying is not true, it's not that when you log out normally and log back in, that everything is randomly gone. It's more the combination of a crash with a autosave at the wrong time that makes this happen. So that's why joining random people increases your risk, because you have lot's of crashes during that and if it autosaves whilst you crash you are f*cked. So please do your research before saying something.
90k? Dude when it been 50k even on busy times I been following and checking. The games population dropped by half and other half is playing alts till they get wiped too
Option 4, just level alts for now.
All these problems could have been avoided, if you have a hard save on your system instead of on unreliable servers. Me and many others have said this game should have had and does need an offline function that saves to your computer instead of a server, that way you can copy your save file before going online to play multiplayer and if something went wrong you could just restore your saved copy. Why this game is online only is beyond me.
I'm so sick of getting booted after every matchmake expedition and always seeing that ⚠️ on my screen. Fix the damn servers!
Also cut scenes shouldn't take up time in expeditions……there i said it.
Re buff the stuff they nerfed. Bring back the community
Bugs aside they have other problems…. like matchmaking….
Group leaders should not be able to outright kick you.
There is no way to target the ct of expitions, so getting a group able to do 14 or 15s is impossible.
Leaders going afk as soon as you join them should be punished…
Honestly if they replace matchmaking with an ai follower system it will be of more help.
Playing with other randoms seems to be a big problem on PS4. I have only tried it a couple of times but every time i did the game crashed. I could play with other friends that had the game though. But I only have two of those friends. The game is fun but really tricky on solo, which i have been playing most of the time.
Does anyone know how long it takes for developers to fix things like game crashes on co-op (and solo)? Im not talking about inventory wipes now. Two or three weeks seems very optimistic, since it took 5 years for them to actually create the game.
love the game ive put over 200 hours into it already but this inventory wipe thing is taking the piss . All my mate's have lost there gear and ive stopped playing till they fix it
Was loving the game and the grind was at CT12 now I won’t log I cause I don’t want to lose everything.
My inventory got wiped so I'm done with it.
All I hear is I grinded the game and was able to take advantage of the exploits and got my character perfect before anybody else could and now they take it away?
I play solo now. which is a bummer since I wanted to do coop more and why i bought it and my friends purchased it as well.. Just avoiding the bugs. I finished campaign mode. Now doing pod grinding.
No issues for me. Hopefully it doesn't happen to any of you
Man I remember saying “people should wait to purchase because from what i have seen this game has problems that ruin the experience”
And first reply i got was “well im not experiencing any bugs”
Oh how deep the lore of the bugs of this game have gotten since then LOL.
I haven't been able play the game since the update. I want my money back!
I can’t even log into the damn thing. Broken crap like this is not acceptable.
Anthem was an amazing concept. Just released it before it was ready,then too late for people to care. If this isn't fixed your absolutely correct,this game will drop off fast and people will move on before fixed like anthem
I learned my lesson when I pre-ordered anthem
PCF need to stop treating this game like a live service game and also make an offline mode.
