Game servers will be down for a scheduled maintenance tomorrow @ 6AM PDT. Please see the patch notes below for details.


Client Crashes Updates

  • Fixed a client crash caused by an invalid geometry state.

  • Connection issues being perceived as client crashes
    A clear message will now be displayed when a connection is lost during gameplay or on loading screens, instead of the game appearing to crash.

  • Additional GPU diagnostics 
    Additional diagnostic tools for NVIDIA graphics cards (GPU monitor) were tested on the PTS and are going live with this hotfix. These tools will help us investigate more specific cases that may be related to particular GPUs or driver configurations.

  • Anti-cheat adjustments 
    Clear messages will now be displayed when a player is “kicked by the anti-cheat system.” This will help us distinguish these cases from actual client crashes.

Work on resolving the crash issues is ongoing. Please let us know whether the current hotfix has helped in your case. Have the crashes stopped? or are you now receiving new messages instead? Screenshots of these messages are very welcomed!


Outfit Resource

  • Construction Outpost facilities now grant an initial reward to outfits upon capture.

  • Outfit resources are now acquired in smaller, faster increments.
