After TU2, the update for operation 2 my game freezes and crashes occasionally in case of playing horde (multiple times in succession) on Xbox One (classic).
Long story short:
Fix the crashes, which were not there yet during OP1 for me.
I did not inform myself good enough about their transparency, sorry.
and pls. TC be more transparent about the problems you are working on (latest update I read on the forum was from end Oct. we are almost at end Dec. …:
which problems, did you even hear the community, did you experience the same? What are the goals of actually fixing those problems? And no PR-bu\c\ap
Symptoms (me joining):
- If a game of horde is ongoing and I join the game freezes and crashes to home, more then once and it has a very negative impact on my playing experience.
- The freezing and crashing happens only during or after loading, during loading when actually joining the game and seeing the current game stats and even sometimes after a short while (say the first wave after joining). Never during count-down in a lobby that is already playing.
- There are times that no problems occur, but I am not sure if this has to do with maps, difficulty or location (sample size(s) is (are) too small).
Also during games I observe a lot of other people having the same problem. In a game in case I joined when everyone was still in the lobby I observe the following symptoms that others probably have and a friend of mine had when joining the same game.
Symptoms (others joining):
- Game freezes temporarily or frame drop when somebody enters the game.
- People try to enter the game, but leave it before even getting the character in the game. (UI continues to shows their level though)
Why I think this is sucks?
Because starting horde games when there are 3 people in the party, with the intention that other can join later is not working anymore. Which means a lot of my time is spent on reloading gears 5 (loading times are long) finding a game that actually works (also loading times and not up to date info on the server 4/5 is full even after refreshing multiple times – I digress) and instead I want to be doing specific maps and difficulties at certain waves (because of the limited amount of time in my life).
3rd party Symptoms (see internet):
- map dependency
- difficulty dependency
- location dependency (USA, EU)
