Latest Update - 18.05.21
Our latest patch, designed primarily to address the damage mitigation issue is currently running through some final testing.
We're hoping to release it this Thursday (May 20), but that will only be confirmed once it successfully passes through testing.
The patch will additionally include crash fixes, as well as added telemetry to help us diagnose currently outstanding sign-in issues that might remain after this patch release. We are also still working on the player appreciation package.
If you're interested to find out more about what goes into the testing process, I provided a behind the scenes look at the process here.
Note: Our fix should resolve the damage mitigation issue for both multiplayer and single player gameplay.
Update - 13.05.21
As our work and testing on the upcoming patch is still ongoing, the patch will not be deploying this week.This upcoming patch is intended to primarily address the damage mitigation bug and will also contain changes to Brood Mother damage behaviour which can currently cause the insta-kill issue that some players have observed with this enemy in particular.We have also been continually investigating and addressing sign in issues that certain users may have encountered. We've made backend changes within the last hour to help some of these users, but are aware that this may not solve the issue for everyone just yet. This upcoming patch will include further monitoring to help us further pinpoint and understand the causes of any related outstanding problems.
We will update you again when we have specific release information for the patch.
