Re: The Small News thread (Season 15)

@BigMacAttack8u I've had two communication issues.

1) My friend and I could not talk to xbox random in ranked even though we switched to game chat when we saw their mic symbol active.

2) Text chat box has been broken for weeks for me on PS5.  I cannot use either the stick or the D pad to change letters to type. The touch pad -kind of- works, but the game really wants to pull me back to the center. It's too bad that "HH" is not a standard comm, lol.  It's a bummer to not even be able to say simple things like "TY" "GG" or "NT," etc. which I will typically do in games with randoms.

@hayhor 

Rin the “Japanese Hideouts” has been moved to a different department. Internal changes happening on Respawn as Pav was recently moved as well.

@Cheese9Man I thought he only started there recently. Is the dept being closed? 

@OldTreeCreeperStill with Respawn just moved to a different position.

BTW, I’ve seen the new Fortnite game engine upgrade. The game looks gorgeous now.

@Cheese9Man new season just started and the graphics are lush 😃 on xbox but there is an issue on switch with the screen going v dark every now and then. 

Hello? Isn't WE today? Star Trek is down for server maintenance for 2 hours and I thought I could actually play Apex for a change, you know, an actual game mode without hot-dropping. Where is the mode, bruh?

@CCbathwaterUsually not till "local noon" for where ever the Respawn offices are (I think PST time zone).

Don't worry, somehow, people will turn that into a Hot Drop Mode too.

@KyldenarThey should get up earlier then. Or set the system to auto patch while they're sleeping.

Cryptic is located in Los Gatos, California. And Star Trek is updating right now. Guess they get up earlier at Cryptic Studios.

@CCbathwaterThe changes are always 1 pm eastern. Its been like this for 3 years. No matter what time they pick someone will complain.
