Its just so hard to gauge whats lag and whats the game engine chugging. we were playing last night and there seemed to a fair old bit of rubberbanding. and Anytime I crossed the threshold of a warehouse it would happen.

I would have to say that I've been lucky when it comes to bugs, other people report lots of problems but for me, by and large its been pretty good.

We start calling out when we get a bit of lag. For us it seems to be across the board so all of us getting it at the exact same time so I'd say thats possibly a server related issue.

Easy game this, picked up another chicken dinner.

2 kills, last circle, one lad crawled in front of me and last man I saw peek from a bush, so just sprayed in that direction...:p

Raging here. Most annoying game ever. Landed on the big mountain at the north east and was raiding away. Seen where the circle was at the south west and started running. It's a bit stupid that you have no chance of getting back in the circle. Spend ten minutes running the length of the map to die.

Its all in the game yo. Landing on one end of the island and the circle appears far away means you have to get a vehicle quick smart. Looting can wait

My controller didn't have the headphone jack so I am hopefully collect a microphone and headphone combo from my nephews over Xmas... annoying not being able to talk to your own squad

I really want to like this game but the controls are the most awkward almost impossible to figure out in any game I know. Why is it you have to pull the trigger twice to ads? I'm loosing 1v1 all the bloody time cannot for the life of me get a handle of it.

I think you just tap the trigger once to ads. I usually only use ads when they are in the distance. Maybe try changing your senstivity as well a youtuber called The Average Sniper has a video up off his settings they are suppose to be better then the default ones I havnt had the chance to try them yet.

That’s because just holding x lets you do the interact action.
Can you imagine holding x for opening doors, picking up stuff etc?

Also Xbox users love their cars, at the 2nd last circle I counted 5 cars all circling each other out of 10 users.
On Pc that would be a death sentence for all of them

I find it near impossible to hit someone from further than ten feet away, so the chances of hitting someone in a car are infinitesimal.

While it's effective, I just couldn't bring myself to do it, kinda defeats the purpose of the game for me

the cars dont take that much punishment, its also more about positioning with rocks or trees, but thats not really any help if the circle ends in a wide open field.

Yeah it's hilarious how people are driving around in the last few circles where that just doesn't happen on pc, I think it's because it's so much harder to shoot people out of them with a controller.

My last round yesterday involved 8 in the final circle. 5 of those were in cars and buggies. Decided to take out the cars with a DP-28 only to leave myself down to the final 2 with 4 bullets left and trying to take a guy out climbing on a rock. Needless to say it ended with me getting a bullet to the head

Completely new to this I got a message saying fatal flaw on the screen and now when I try turn the game on it shows me the gold dacia and church behind but it won't display my character or anything else no matter what buttons I try.

Happened to me a few times too, you were killed between the fatal flaw and when you loaded back in.
Only way I could sort it was to restart console.

Can't see an option to close the game and re-open.

Hmm. Quit out of the game fully first: on the main Xbox screen, press menu, then select "Quit". If that doesn't work, try a hard reset of the console: hold down the power button until it turns off, then restart it.

If that doesn't work, uninstall and reinstall the game.

Word is the update didn't install correctly for many people.

Check it out. Mine didn't install correctly. Reinstalling now.

Absolute madness. Even the Digital Foundry video there has them unknowingly running two different versions.

Countless people must still be running the old code, all while thinking they're getting the latest.

Just reinstalled there, went into a game for a peep, icons on screen. Will check it out shortly properly.

Stone Deaf 4evr

Yep, I was the same, weird though. It was like half a patch, had the updated squad screen and map markers but no icons. Re-downloading now.

CatInABox

New patch out, the last one of the year:

This patch will be live at 1AM PST / 10AM CET / 6PM KST.
Please restart your Xbox after the patch goes live to get the update.

Optimization
Continued performance optimizations


In-game
The tuning range for the general sensitivity option has been expanded
Weapon recoil reduced across the board (Xbox Only)
Team UI will now correctly display voice chat status
Additional Localization updates

Bug
A variety of crash fixes
Fixed an issue where casting bar UI remains onscreen when spectating a target who died while using an item from their inventory

Hopefully this one actually takes for everyone this time.

Thats got to be a bit of egg on their faces, much and all as I think that their analysis is second to none, the fact that they're so preoccupied with counting pixels that they didn't notice that the different UI between the two versions is a bit of a booboo!
