Dickensday: Winter's Meme Update - Bug Megathread

(Chris Mullins) #1

Hey all!

With every new update there are often a number of unforeseen issues that sneak in. To address these as quickly as possible, we’re creating a single Bug Megathread so you can let us know when you run into them. This way, you’ll have a much greater chance of having them seen by our QA team than by creating a new thread (we only have so much time for bug-thread hunting!)
Before you make a post please do a quick check to see if anyone else has reported the issue you have experienced. If so, simply up-vote their comment and we’ll know the severity of issues.

Format bug reports: When putting a bug into the comments below make sure that you give us as much information as you can. If you can remember any of the events leading up to the issue it can help us find the cause quicker.

[list][]Type of Bug: Eg. Gameplay bug, HUD and in game UI, Frontend UI etc.
[]Description: Describe what the bug is and what happened in the moments leading up to and after the incident.
[]Video / Screenshot: If you can grab a screenshot (which you can do through steam) or a video recording of the issue it would be useful for us.
[]Steps to reproduce: List the steps that lead up to the bug. Try not to leave any information out, every step can be useful!
[]Result: What happened after you experienced the bug.
[]Expected result: What you believe should have happened if there was no bug.
[*]Reproduction rate: How many times out of 10 have you experienced this issue? (1/10 - 10/10)[/list]

Performance/Graphical Issues: If you are experiencing either performance or graphical related issues, please also add your System Specification to your bug report including: Processor, Graphics Card, RAM, HDD/SSD, Motherboard, Sound Card and even drivers etc.
We’ll be going through each and every bug which is posted here. If you don’t get a reply, don’t worry. Just rest assured knowing we have made note of your issue and it will be addressed when possible.
Thank you for helping us make Dirty Bomb a cleaner place (that sounds wrong but you know what I mean).

Type of Bug: FPS drop

Description: It is not really often, but it happens. My FPS will be between 60~80, and I only keep HQ on, the rest of them were set on the lowest quality. In fact, this issue even existed before the update. I checked task manager, CPU, Disk Usage, and Ram were all below 60

Video / Screenshot: Unfortunately, I don’t have it.

Steps to reproduce: unknown

Result: low FPS

Expected result: It should be in the range of 170~180, or 160+

Reproduction rate: not often.

----------Below is my PC’s spec:-------------

Processor: Intel® Core™ i5-6402P CPU @ 2.80GHz

Graphics Card: Radeon ™ RX 480 Graphics

RAM: 8.0 GB, 2133 Mhz

HDD

Motherboard: B150M BAZOOKA (MS-7982)

Sound Card: 1. AMD High Definition Audio Device (not so familiar with sound card )

I am not so sure how am I suppose to post driver information. I export the list from a program called Driver Booster. It contains 20000+ words which I can’t post it here. Not so sure if it is allowed to do this, but I will upload the txt file to the Mega Cloud. It is in the spoiler.

Type of Bug: Gameplay
Description: Carryable objective got stuck in wall/ceiling on Bridge. I did not see the death, but the carrier died near the ammo crate on the stairs of the parking garage, by red van where attackers spawn on last objective. Carryable objective HUD marker was in the ceiling. Going up to the second level, carryable HUD marker made it look like it was in the parking garage. Objective was nowhere to be found on the ground. Still got guard xp for being “next” to it.

Steps to reproduce: Unknown.
Result: Upon death, carryable got stuck in wall/ceiling. Could not interact with or see objective.
Expected result: Upon death, carryable should be on the ground.
Reproduction rate: Unknown.

[left]Type of Bug: Increased latency on EU servers

Description: My ping almost doubled since the last update. I used to have between 45 and 65 ms ping on most of the EU servers. The weird thing is that now I get almost the same latency (90 to 100+ ms) if I connect to a EU or a RUS server (I’m in France…). From time to time, it goes back to a normal value for 30 minutes and increases again. I already checked my ISP and PC performances and everything looks ok on this side. No problems on any other games.

Steps to reproduce: Connecting to a EU server

Result: Latency higher than normal (90 to 100+ ms) in the server browser and in game

Expected result: Normal Ping (50 to 65 ms)

Reproduction rate: Constant since the last update[/left]

Type of Bug: Gameplay
Description: NGS is causing packet losses, causing you to do short teleports in map and causes “frame skips” and thus, throw you off aim.
Video / Screenshot: no need

Expected result: “makes me happy” - Phoenix
Reproduction rate: 100%

Teleports so frequent, it’s like playing OW’s Tracer… without conscious control of teleports…

This is severe… so severe, it’ll rival my glorious 1.16 fps.

This is so severe, I had to record it happening in a match… Where do I upload footage?

(Terminal_6) #13

Type of Bug: Gameplay

Description: Aimee’s SNITCH device works through walls

Steps to reproduce: Throw SNITCH at a wall, have enemy stand on other side. Most commonly reproduced at Market, A side, 2-story attacker building (the one with ammo crate)

Result: People are constantly detected and debilitated on the other side of the wall.

Expected result: Nothing.

Reproduction rate: ~90% Haven’t tested “scientifically” but it is certainly noticeable in standard gameplay.
