I am only creating this thread to get my voice out there and be heard and to see if anyone else to experiencing these issues.
These are the issues I've personally experienced in the game:
- Significant frame rate drops. This usually happens to me only when I'm in a battle. The massive frame rate drops make it extremely difficult to make judgements or precise shots when the screen is jumping around all the time. This causes players to go up close and hip-fire which works in favour of the submachine guns and shotguns.
- Spawning. This is the prime reason why I don't buy items that you lose on death, because you can die in 5 seconds due to spawn camping or an unlucky spawn. Many times I have spawned right in front of 2-3 guys on the other team and things didn't end well. The frame rate is another factor to me not purchasing items.
- Lack of fluidity. This happens on whatever menu, but for example,when I attempt to buy stuff: (load market screen -> *crash* -> appears -> load weapons -> *crash* -> appears -> buy weapon -> *crash* -> purchase complete) What's with all the crashes/freezes?
- The abrupt disconnections. This will happen no matter where I am in the game and no matter when, this issue then causes the game to lock-up and I can't do anything, text doesn't appear in the chat when I type it and the Neocom is completely unresponsive, sometimes the character doesn't move. I have to quit the game (why isn't there an option to return to title screen?)
^One of the causes of this is interacting with a player from EVE.
- Graphical bug. The common issue here is where I fire a launcher or rocket and it flies out the side of the gun...? I've fired a swarm launcher one time and all the missiles that were fired turned around and came back at me. Another issue is when a vehicle gets destroyed; no explosion, instantly turns into a wreck.
- Skill book bug. I buy one, attempt to use on the relevant skill and it disconnects me wasting any ISK that I've spent. I have had this problem only once, I didn't have the patience at the time to out wait the glitch to see if it went away over a period of time but the only alternative to me at the time was to delete the character.
- Game server down. This has happened to me a couple of times, I have been unable to connect to the server on game start-up from the title screen for a small period of time, roughly 2-3 hours.
- VOIP. At certain times there has been no chat icons and I haven't been able to hear friends when in a squad even when I've had the Voice set to ON and the push to talk OFF. I've tried restarting the console and quitting the game and the same thing happens. I've also noticed the voice chat icon to the far left of the screen which stays grey.
- Menu screen overlay. This usually happens when I'm navigating a a few menu's and I get placed into a game - where you see the results screen - and whatever I was currently on would crash and freeze and couldn't be able to do anything but watch until the game eventually loads and puts me into the battle.
- Hit detection. This happens when I fire weapons at a range, I see my victim's shields being hit by the projectiles, but sometimes they take no damage. I've experienced this commonly when firing the submachine gun at range.
- Chat censor. This is sort of on the boundaries of being a bug, but it needs to be fully revised. Almost every single person in the chat is talking about 'kittens' unintentionally. An example of this is not being able to type the word 'assault' successfully. |
