Patch 13.0



PS4 Version 1.18

Patch 13 should be hitting your consoles today! We hope you enjoy the bug fixes and improvements. See below to see what’s included.

Bug Fixes and Improvements

Gameplay

· Fixed an issue that would prevent a smelted material from being usable, even when it was available in the Forge

· Fixed an issue that would cause the quest to find a trader to require a specific trader to be found; now it will pick the nearest trader and update the target when the player moves closer to another

· Fixed an issue that would cause the trader’s UI to close when a second player would exit a container in split-screen multiplayer

· Fixed an issue that would cause the “Cannot Breathe” indicator to vanish when underwater

· Fixed an issue that would cause stamina to decrease while walking after being teleported from a Trader settlement

· Fixed an instance of an issue that would occasionally cause blocks to spawn without support and create a mass collapse when broken

· Fixed an issue that cause interactive objects to be interacted with when an object on top of them was picked up

· Fixed an issue that allowed medical items to be used on certain inanimate objects (like minibikes)

· Fixed an issue that caused a destroyed bedroll’s indicator to persist after rejoining the game session

· Fixed an issue that would cause terrain to deform after a zombie would decay on top of it

· Fixed an issue that occasionally caused items being repaired to have their level dropped to 1

Art/Audio

· Fixed an issue that was causing distant terrain to render using different shaders than in previous patches

· Fixed an issue that would cause weather effects to impact hosts and clients with different severities

· Fixed an issue that caused the underwater effects to disappear when viewed through a Sniper Rifle scope

· Fixed an issue that would occasionally prevent all but the first letter of long words from being displayed on wooden signs

· Fixed an issue that allowed the player to shrink a torch in an active toolbelt slot

System/Stability

· Fixed a crash that would occur when combining certain clothing items on the workbench and equipping them

· Fixed an issue that would cause the world to regenerate after the console had its language changed

Have a blast with Patch 13! We can't wait to hear what you think about it all.

Enjoy!

Yep, I play on the PS4 also. Most of my gameplay is trying to replicate bugs lately though. For the most part I play solo, or local split. I tried hosting, and joining a few random games, but the console really doesn't do well with that unless you play with friends.

I do strongly hope for the day that I'll be able to host a server for the console. That would be a lot of fun. Personally though, I don't think it's likely to be implemented in the fashion I would wish for it to be, even if it ever happens.

Would like to see a Texture update, New Vehicles, Heli on COnsoles. Thank You

 
First things, I’m playing on patch 13 AFTER I’ve cleared my system cache. Some of theses test are seen/tested in my survival game, others are tested in creative mode.

Normal PS4, NOT a ps4pro.

Zombie body’s have a new breakdown system. Stage one is the walking form, stage two is the half body, stage three is the gore mess and spine.

Now to explain, If a body has loot on them during break down with a player object, stage three is not breakable. (Till you loot the body. (No more blue backpack). Gore Body explodes after loot.

If the body has no loot on them at all. During break down with a player made object, after stage 2 the body explodes and disappears. So no more stage 3 gore mess.

Now this could be how my loot chance is set or due to the new break down of body’s, but I’ve yet to get a bone from a zombie. Got 1 fat. Once out of 20 zombies, no bone.

Appears you need to harvest a animal. Normal loot from them, bone, fat, meat.

Raw meat has a smell still. So all that still works. (This worked on patch 12, but required a new game after you cleared system cache.)

That’s all I’ve got for now .

New breakdown system may be a fix for cloned/glitching duplicate items. Don’t know how it was done, just know body’s would sometimes be looted twice. (From multiplayer experience)

Edit 1: cobwebs. Description : A cobweb is made by a spider. If this was Marvel it might mean something. ( This happen when placing a block near a bolder it just kinda popped into my inventory.) At first I thought it said crowbar. Got super excited. Lol

You can now throw rocks. This may be old, and I’m late to the rock throwing game.

Rocket tips and case have a nicer icon. Ak47 still looks like a mess.

Bellows also look like bellows now. It been a while since I’ve played so these also could be they way they looked. But I swear bellows looked odd before.

Edit 2: landscape now seems to render in faster. No more driving mini bikes into blank flat land and freezing game till landscape loads in. Tested in multiple areas even in hub. If nothing is loaded you can keep driving and landscape will load in a second later.

The rocks and cobweb thing are old , but I’m assuming I’m gonna have to start a new world because I still have the blue backpack . I also had to start a new world with the last update too

 
Thanks for all the hard work

Hey first off you guys are doing great the new update is working nicely but I gotta know when are we gonna get some content updates? Some new zombies,the traps and servers for more then 4 people to play

 
COD WW2, A GREAT GAME!
such a true statement if you 're being sarcastic of course

Love the new shader fix it was weird having the distant terrain being such a different shading it was killing the immersion

BTW found a cool seed with 2 missile basses both in green biome both less than 2 k from hub city it has 9 town + hub (10 total) all towns are in desirable biomes grass lands pine forest and maple Forrest only two town have small portion in burnt biome and wasteland , wasteland biome is a bare minimum lots of workbench gas station in the south east and west the SEED name is AnthonyWright - three spaces after the name and remember the caps , the three spaces at the end are the trigger for the 2 missile bases with out it you will get completely different maps though i have noticed that most iteration of my AnthonyWright seeds tend to generated missile silo as with my gem AnthonyWright380 it has 2 hubs 10 towns and 1 missile silo in a green biome (most other seeds i generate spawn the silos in wasteland or burnt forest )

 
Nice to see bugs fixs !

You can now throw rocks. This may be old, and I’m late to the rock throwing game.
It should be useful to detonate landmines as we cannot disarm them, so we won't waste firearms ammo on landmines.
