Season 8 Patch Issues
There's a few issues in the Chaos Theory event:
- Entering/Exiting ring flare sound effect is GLOBAL to all players
- Speaking of sounds, certain actions are louder or quieter based on how big the room is, well I understand how echos and whatnot works, but its not even that, open area = you hear nothing, closed area = you hear everything, including the voices inside enemy Wraith's hea- well maybe not the voices, but you get it. I should not hear gun shots near me, 100+ meters away, punches, walk/run sounds, etc. all at once and loudly if its not there, and then not hear anything, even though it is there.
- You cannot loot heat shields without sacrificing items when you have full inventory. Meaning, you have to drop something to fill this "extra" slot.
- More rampant cheaters everywhere, a lot of them are even streaming
- Intense lag/rubberbanding/lentence issues, and whatnot. Guys this is NOT our internet connection, so please quit telling us to "check our connections".
- At least for me, the game is randomly activating different kinds of buttons, if I hit grenade, the game makes me use my tactical, if I reload, I punch, etc. keys work as intended on the next key press but completely throws off a match
- I'm hearing double sound audio, its mainly voice lines that sounds like one line with an echo of the same or another line.
Example:
Ring closing, you better hurry!
---Ring closing, oh this is fun!
The -'s are offset of time.
It's honestly sad that we keep getting collection events shoved into our faces, while underlying issues are still a thing (mainly talking about bugs, audio, and such, not cheaters as that's not as easy to "fix".
In the end, I'm not at all surprised.
Edited: Adding on to the issues:
- It's very hard to see out of heat shields in later rings
- The sound of heat shields are VERY loud.
- Guns with select modes (like prowler and hemlok) shows the same icon, so you can't tell if its in single fire, burst, etc.
- Gliched club names
