Risk of Rain 2 is developed by just 8 people. It’s a game that I don’t regret buying early access because the early access till 1.0 is the smoothest sailing i’ve ever seen for a game. I have a pretty old pc that’s low spec even back then, the game just run smoothly.
And of course a multibillion company is the one messing thing up.
I didn’t realize Gearbox had any part in it. Are they just the publisher?
They bought the IP from hopoo a few years ago, and this DLC is 100% by Gearbox internal dev.
Steam should implement mandatory version history rollbacks. Super lame that it’s optional, at the dev’s discretion.
You can freely download old versions of steam games. You used to be able to do it through the steam console, but now you have to use an external application.
Edit: you can still do it through the Steam Console.
What’s all the hate about? I have already played this dlc for 8 hours and have seen zero bugs.
Saying your own anecdotal experience to counter balance a reported problem for many others is fine. Acting like those problems don’t exist is stupid.
Read the article and you will know ‘what all the hate is about’.
Maybe the most significant issue is that, for some reason, the Seekers of the Storm update has tied Risk of Rain 2’s physics systems to its frame rate. When asked about it on Discord, Gearbox developer GBX-Preston said FPS-related issues, “and all the ramifications on balance/physics/attack speed/movement/etc. were not intentional. This is in our top handful of issues we’re investigating.” As a stopgap, he said players experiencing issues should lock the game at 60 fps.
Amazing. How the fuck did you do that?
From what I’ve read they tried to combine the console and PC version into a unified single version. Gearbox must’ve seen the Borderlands movie and sought to lower the bar below the ocean floor.
Something to note is that it’s not just the DLC, the patch that released alongside it introduced a slew of bugs to everyone who owns the game. Apparently this includes framerate now affecting things like movement speeds, enemies sometimes dealing insane bursts of damage randomly, invisible enemy projectiles, among other gameplay breaking stuff. Total disaster.
Sigh… I guess we saw it coming with Gearbox…
You mean if I just update my game on Steam, it will get messed up? I don’t have the DLC
Yes.
I AM ONCE AGAIN ASKING FOR GEARBOX TO NOT SUCK
