Current MAJOR Issues List

Post » Thu Jun 30, 2011 10:12 pm

Hi All,

Some wanted a new thread where MAJOR issues and concerns in MP could be posted that is CURRENT. The original stickied thread is not up to date. So here we go, I will try to update the best I can. We all know there are numerous bugs, but it would be nice to keep the MAJOR issues up top.

Please read the list below before adding and if you add please use bullet points. Added catergories breakdown the best I could. Thanks.

Lobby:
- Parties are still being split up. Why can't we have what the PC have. The game starts, but it really does not start until there are enough players.
- Cannot join a game in progress when there are open slots.
-lobbies resetting for no reason after a match
-"retrieving session details", match won't start---why? (boot them)

Squads:
- when you are in a party, there are no party chat indicators in game. If you have new people join your party, it is hard to tell who is talking.
- If you do not join the Xbox party, but you join game in progress before the host selects a match, you cannot talk to them. After finishing a match and he or she brings us back from the lobby to reselect another match we can talk to each other. You should be able to talk to each without doing an XBox Party.
- People in parties joining a game in progress on the opposition side even when there's space in the party's team.
-match does not start and some squad members may get black screen, then must restart the game from dashboard or game freezes when you are in a party

Menus/Assessments:
- By removing some game modes, the assessments are still there.
- The FY71 does not have an assessment nor the smoke grenades.
- The Traveler is not added to the new maps.
- 22/23 of modules have not been addressed.
- Leaderboards for those who rebooted before the recent patch have not been addressed.
-some peeps still not getting "Tooled Up" achievement/missing weapon unlock tokens
-some peeps still missing 1 Mystery Dog Tag token??
-randomize the maps
-combine the DLCs with original maps

KillStreaks:
- Kill Streaks are lost when you do not use them if you get them again.
- The Orbital Strike or Gun Ship drops frame rate.
- The Gun Ship is red and not green to the friendly.
-fix missing killstreaks glitch---example max radar will deactivate, if orbital strike is gained??
-fix not collecting dog tags while max suit/airship active??
-put max suit on pier 17, airship on city hall and sanctuary... or at least have the killstreaks switch up

Weapons/Attachments:
- Hologram makes your gun reload when there are bullets.
- The DSG Sniper Rifle makes your secondary reload after swapping them.
- You cannot tell if the L-Tag is friendly or not. All of it shows red not green to the friendly.
-fix reload/switch weapon glitch
-nerf the FY71??

In-game concerns/exploits:
- The Kill-Cam is glitchy. (A lot of frame rate drops and character death sync with killers kill-cam sync)
- Characters falling through the map---example Lighthouse.
- On Lighthouse (while host) being thrown into the water and unable to rejoin but continue to look at the seen of the underwater environment the whole time.

- Unexpected energy lost when you bump into a friendly.
-random energy loss (without being shot at)
-dead bodies still appear on max radar as red dots?
-fix maximum nanosuit
-fix nanosuit jammer
- Rare migration where it puts a player in a match alone.
-tooooo ofter host migration fails
-everyone has 2-3 bars to start match, during match everyone (but host) drops to 1 red bar----why? (boot host)
- Too long of a delay to ARM maximum armor when you ARM it. I like the way it is setup in single player.
- There are green, gray, or pink bullets when you have a head shot.
- New Weapon indicator keeps showing up even if you click the weapon.
-stealth kill lock on is still dodgy
- On Statue, when shooting down sights there is a blue screen. People say slide to get rid of it. Why? (I think he means Liberty Island during CTR)
- The melee / stealth glitch- when a stealth kill or melee kill is initiated the gun is unable to fire until switching weapons or death has occurred.
- Disappearing weapons on the top floor of wall street
- The double grenade effect. If you pay attention every time you launch a grenade it appears like the grenade has been pitched twice.
- Ending up with -1 or -2 ammo in the mag (can't at all remember the circumstances for that one though).
- Having no weapon model. Can still fire and reaload but not switch. Picking a weapon up off the ground fixes it.
- Geospatial bugs - See Goose (I think) for more info. There's definitely one on downed bird, I've found one on compound... heard of one on lighthouse... don't want to post though.
- Cloaking but gun still being visible (poor bastards).
- In-game host checking. There can't be any... if a connection suddenly drops to pieces (uploading, people on host's network caning it, lag switching, wireless host) it should migrate. This has been mentioned previously but just to qualify.

Private Matches:
-glitch, where if the host leaves before everyone has loaded the map everyones stats will reset to 0 on leaderboards and modules

- Disappearing weapons on the top floor of wall street
- The double grenade effect. If you pay attention every time you launch a grenade it appears like the grenade has been pitched twice.
- The random fall through the map (in the middle of lighthouse is when it happened to me) into the water below.
- Dead enemies still appearing as alive/red dots on the next sweep of the radar.
- People in parties joining a game in progress on the opposition side even when there's space in the party's team.
- Ending up with -1 or -2 ammo in the mag (can't at all remember the circumstances for that one though).
- People in lobbies with no emblem or level that prevent sessions loading.
- Having no weapon model. Can still fire and reaload but not switch. Picking a weapon up off the ground fixes it.
- Geospatial bugs - See Goose (I think) for more info. There's definitely one on downed bird, I've found one on compound... heard of one on lighthouse... don't want to post though.

- In-game host checking. There can't be any... if a connection suddenly drops to pieces (uploading, people on host's network caning it, lag switching, wireless host) it should migrate. This has been mentioned previously but just to qualify.
- Earning an Orbital Strike or Radar Jammer will cancel out your Radar as soon as you get the fifth Dog Tag.

Thoughts:

Maybe these should be split into 'categories' to make readability easier. Matchmaking, killstreaks, gameplay, modules, maps, achievements? Something like that anyways.

Glad to help. Lets get this one as thorough as possible, as accurate as possible and as up-to-date as possible. Maybe we can get this one sticked and the other un-sticked then if we get any mods on the scene. Walka said he'll bookmark and bump regularly though if it starts to drop.

- Game freezes when you are in a party.

Is that the game crashing totally or the black screen of death? If it's the crash I think we need to differentiate and get the BSOD in there. That's a frequent flyer and a pain in the ****!

- Black screen for certain squad members after / before matchs - sometimes it cause someone to return to the dash board to fix.
- On Lighthouse (while host) being thrown into the water and unable to rejoin but continue to look at the seen of the underwater environment the whole time.

Good work Sia - one to get under killstreaks (unless I've missed it):

- Calling in nanosuit jammer or orbital strike whilst you have your radar up causes the radar to disappear.

No, this is the grain glitch. The pic on the left is what the game looks like with the glitch. The one on the right is how it looks normally. Notice the angled lines across the whole screen in the left image.

I am embarrassed to take a picture of my TV. My wife won't let me bring a new TV in until I buy her a new car. :(
