Grind Assist resets to 100 every time the game starts, and even after setting it to 0, stays active.
It is no longer possible to ollie onto thin objects without being forced into a grind. This is, in my humble opinion, a high priority problem. It has removed a large amount of optional complexity and flexibility from the gameplay. I hope it can be hotfixed sooner rather than later.
I would like to stress this is not just the bug of the option resetting, the primary issue is that Grind Assist remains ON even at 0%. Sorry, I feel like I need to really make that clear.
This is a huge issue! Some game settings reset on launch as listed in Known Issues, but the separate issue here is that the Grind Assist setting appears to do nothing at all anymore-- it is stuck at a magnetizing assist, even when changed from 100.
Edit: Launched the game and did some testing to see if I could find a trigger. Upon launching and setting Grind Assist to 0, grinds are still magnetized. Shifting up to 5 then back to 0 seems to properly apply less (or 0) assist. But after completing (starting?) a mission, opening a box, or redeeming an item from the season pass, it starts magnetizing again, and the setting needs to be reset to 5->0 again to apply.
I'm not sure how consistently this happens or if the assist even works properly after setting 5->0, but maybe this can help devs look for causes of bug.
THIS!!!. Please fix this ASAP!
I was wondering why I kept going into grinds even though I was trying to do manuals.
So thus far, Full Circle managed to fix... well, did they fix anything, or did they really just introduce six new bugs (that we know of thus far)?
Good lord, this is almost funny.
For anyone struggling, if you hold forward when jumping, you will be able to briefly disengage the game's stalling/grinding mechanics. I know it's not said anywhere in game but this is your best workaround, so please upvote and share this information.
I'm also having this same issue. Hopefully it will be fixed soon
Being pulled into literal ATOMS everytime I’m trying to grind is NOT my definition of a fun time. This is a HUGE problem.
I really hope this gets hotfixed and we don't have to wait months and months for the next season like other bugs.
Yeah same issue here.
I just found another issue too. If you reset that page to default it doesn't change any other settings. Only grind assist. Ironically setting it to 50 but ingame still feels like 100.
That's because it DOESN'T actually turn off or get any lower than 100.
At all.
Which is also the reason why it keeps turning itself back on after every reset, on Steam, EA app AND Xbox.
