NimbleJack3

It's the same as here, NimbleJack3. I am matchmaking right now for the Daily Challenging mission as of this typing (Potomac Event Center) and I haven't gotten a single match for half an hour.

Thanks for that. We will investigate if there are any general issues. From a first glance it seems that your connection to the servers always has a very high ping which might cause matchmaking issues for you.

If you are using a VPN try turning it off and if you have very strict firewall settings that might also help. While we will look further into it on our side as well it's probably best to reach out to support.ubisoft.com to go through some tech steps to reduce latency.

This is brilliant !

hate that guy since seeing his replying to player on twitter. what a b

Sorry you feel that way. It's true though, sometimes I do get a bit spicy and phrase things poorly.

Hamish isn't a developer.

That's accurate. To clarify, my responsibilities and those of my team are to make content (online media, not in game content) such as streams, videos, podcasts etc.

I'm always here for quality memes. Well played XD

(Of course, this doesn't mean I'm saying issues with the game aren't incredibly important to solve and we've got a lot of work to do)

Hey, thanks for the report. Can you DM me your Uplay name, please? We made several changes a few weeks back and it seems to have fixed the majority of matchmaking issues. With your account info we can look into where you are getting matchmade into and so on.

Here, hold my god damn beer....This isn't that hard.

Dear bruce "numbfuckingskull" kelley;

Does [this] mob do damage to the player.....then it more than likely one shots

Signed,

I'll take your fucking job now, with a pay raise please.

Not too sure if you're serious but we do actually have an opening for a Live Game Designer.

But it's been 27 days now since you posted this and still no fix...

Hey!

We have the fix for it but we need to wait for a patch to implement this.

In the mean time I can only thank you for your patience.

Hey Agent if this is happening on PC you may need to verify your files:

Thanks for fixing the lift, to get upstairs however the gate near the restock ammo box is closed, how do we get to the basement to finish the bounty (Challenging-2 Bosses)?

Hey, we are aware that now the golden gates are not opening preventing you to get into the basement, and we're working on a fix. Thanks for letting us know.

Hey langelr90, that certainly doesn't look right! Have you made sure your GPU drivers are up to date? Has this happened outside of the game?

Thanks for the long write up. I think you pretty much hit the nail on the head on several issues. Unfortunately you also try to make it look like we are not aware or are not trying to fix these things.

We understand the current situation is frustrating and that it's our fault. We are frustrated with it too. And you can believe me when I say we are also frustarted that we are in a time right now where everything slows down due to the circumstances we are facing. I'll try to tackle your list.

1) Seriously, massive. How hard?

It's not easy, which is why it's not done yet. Your suggestions also requires an UI update, localization and therefore a client patch. This needs to be validated by third parties and so on. That being said, the Control Point reset on Global Difficulty change will be part of the next update which will come in early April (exact date TBD due to the current circumstances).

2) Balance in all things, except this game.

We are having another pass on specific NPCs ...

Potent_Delusions

Sorry but this is pathetic. So you'd rather leave it unobtainable than just putting in something easy like "Visit the black market vendor"? Sony doesn't check the "weighting" as you put it. It's a bronze trophy and they hugely vary in difficulty across games anyway. Some games have bronze trophies for merely loading up the games whilst others like Wolfenstein II have a bronze trophy for beating the game on the hardest difficulty without dying once. It doesn't need a "weighting", If it's not high priority then just make it something easy to code then. I appreciate you guys have a lot of bug fixing to do but "iT nEeDs WeIgHtInG" isn't even a valid excuse. I've paid £25 to have a trophy break on me.

While I understand your reaction what you said is not true. To implement this achievement we obviously work with Sony and they do check the weighting. It might be obvious but our first reaction was "let's just make it a log in once" achievement kind of thing. That's not the way it works though.

echof0xtrot

what about agent skin color problems since WoNY? i and others have made bug reports on the official forums, but haven't heard anything mentioned in SotGs or anywhere about it, much less an ETA on a fix

This might be due to the changes to some faces. I don't believe any work has been done on this and it will likely also not have a high priority right now.

bullet_king_THE_BOSS

Chris, how come the DZ FPS drops is not a high priority issue?

It has been more than 3 weeks since the expansion came out and you guys have been unable to address it.

It is making DZ unplayable most of the time.

Not to mention it should have been found during the testing phase.

We actually have issues reproducing it internally on our dev builds. Which makes it difficult to debug. We do have people in the studio playing and experiencing it as well, I want to point that out. It's just with the work from home setup everything is slower for internal testing.

Rob_Highwind

Can we please get an update on how the studio plans to fix the Dark Zone: Safe House trophy/achievement?

It has been broken for almost a month because you removed the Thieves' Den from the game.

It's not a simple solution I'm afraid. The trophy / achievement requires a certain weight, so we have to replace it with something similar. It's on our list but given the current circumstances it also doesn't have a high priority.

gothamhunter

The contaminated zone "The Angel of Mercy" in Constitution Hall is not accessible through normal means. Please add this to the known issues list.

We're aware and this fix will require some more time. It seems that the environmental interaction broke and we have to do some work on that. Unfortunately not a quick fix.

harmlessrocket

Do we have an ETA on striker gear set?

Likely with the early April update. We should have a better understanding by the end of the week.

Amazing!!

Happy Birthday Agent

I logged in now after the TU 8.4 update and all my control points are green. It's very boring, nothing to fight for in the open world. Why did you listen to those complaining about control points getting taken over? It made the open world feel alive. Some tweaks could have been made to make take-overs rarer when you have all control points in an area. Thus giving players who wanted full control time to react.

Just to clarify, we will give players the option to reset CPs in an upcoming update. For now you can reset the Manhunt CPs with the newly added button in the Manhunt UI.

Next up is the ability to reset CPs via Global Difficulty.
