Issues after 2/4/25 patch
I'm listing issues/changes I have noticed since the new patch on 2/4/25. Some of these may be the intent of the devs, but I will add them anyways. Feel free to add to the list.
- Getting in/out of emplacement turrets is either bugged or controls have changed. Previously on console you would hit Circle (O) to back out of interactive devices. Now you have to hit the interact button (X), but sometimes I feel like even that didn't work.
- Same thing for interacting with other items, like E-710 oil pumps. Had a difficult time "un-interacting" with them. Again, this may have switched to the (X) button, but it was inconsistent for me.
- The interface on the consoles has changed. To reset fuses, raise Lidar Tower, etc, (basically anytime you hit the UP arrow) there is now an animation of a switch "sliding" up. Previously you could rapidly reset all fuses by quickly hitting right, up, right, up, right, up. Now the animation lags behind the button presses so you have to slow down your input. Not the biggest of deals....but why change this?
- Loading SEAF artillery into the canon used to be buttery smooth. Now it is finicky and seems clunky. The prompts for interacting/loading don't populate as fast or as consistent as before.
- Aim down sights (ADM) seems off. As an example, previously while using the scythe, the laser would stay right on the reticle while moving. Now the reticle and laser kind of lose each other. Again, maybe this is by design, but either way is different.
Year of the Snake is still occurring. In my limited experience, on my screen I was normal but on another player's screen i was a slithery sneaky sssssnake. And vice versa with them on my screen.Nothing to see hear. Move on. Let this be.
These are my notes after only a few missions. I haven't tried the FRV yet. Shovel idea is kinda cool, not sure if I'll have time to enjoy on lvl 10 missions.
These are all pretty minor, and don't affect gameplay that much. Still I feel worth mentioning. Awesome update overall and happy with the gaming experience!
EDIT: After another couple days of playing, some of these have gone away or I have figured them out. To exit turrets or interactive devices, you now hit interact (X) again instead of circle (O). This is now consistently working for me.
EDIT: Additionally, I can now quickly tap Up, Right, Up, Right etc to reset fuses on consoles. Same as before. Not sure what caused my original issues, but seems to be fine now.
