Issues fixed
Flying Characters in Co-Op
- Some users have reported issues while attempting to play in co-op during the earliest parts of the game, leading to one character flying or having other physics related problems.
Play through the game in singleplayer first |
---|
|
Poor framepacing
- Some users have reported framepacing issues while using the in-game frame rate cap.
Force exclusive fullscreen[7][8] |
---|
Notes
|
Manually cap the frame rate |

|
Issues unresolved
Objects falling out of reach
- Some physical surfaces, such as wooden floors, can allow objects to fall through. This can make dropped items inaccessible.
- It is advised to be careful about dropping valuable items/satchels, especially near wooden floors and similar surfaces.
Bows despawning
- Dodgerolling while preparing to fire an arrow can lead to your bow despawning.
- This bug has been reported to the developers.
