Path of Persistence: Perk slot disappeared on death.
Finished up the puzzle, got the tear, got the perk slot and went on to the Way finders tomb. Cleared the tomb and then died. When I respawned my perk slot was gone. I could see the tear on the map so I thought I would just redo the puzzle; to no avail. The steps and depressed platform are closed but the map shows the position of the puzzle ball to be at the end of the run and there isn't a second ball at the straight run at the top to re open the depressed platform. I guess say goodbye to 100% completion.
This seems to be a well known bug from the previous builds on 9th gen platforms and the fact that it was ported over to previous gen platforms without being fixed is a real slap in the face. Don't fix it after you know about it, just port it. I'm not 100% sure what the code looks like in the gaming world but in the real world of programming this patch is literally just an if statement for the position of the final ball, maybe less.
This is about the 3rd EA game that I have played with a bug exactly like this that prevents me from completing a game and it's going to be my last one probably forever because of cheap, rushed or lazy coding and QC.
Such a shame cuz fallen order was mint. Glad you guys didn't get the bid for Outlaws and it went to Ubisoft. They seem to have more competent PM or QC or whatever you guys problem is.
