Is anyone else having issues with sound? Specifically during the last part of the mission to kill Theo Parnell? All sounds were working fine until I set up my assault turret.
What platform are you guys playing on? I'm forwarding the reports about sounds to the team and having the mission called out is a great detail. Thanks!
If people got to 40 because the game breaking bug shipped with the expansion, that's not entitlement. That's them actually playing, despite Massive shipping the expansion with a literally progression halting bug in it. That's on Massive, not those of us who wanted to go through the story, but were denied the ability to do so because of Massive's bug.
The point being that the game should keep track of XP gains, regardless. The game tracks it enough to show us level ups with no rewards, so it is being tracked. Just give those who got 40 before finishing the manhunt the XP they have, in fact, already earned.
Asking for what you've already earned isn't entitlement. Or do you also tell people whose paychecks aren't correct to stop being entitled?
If it was as simple as adding that XP I would agree. But it doesn't work like that, I'm afraid. The feature was designed differently and is hooked up to the completion of the campaign. To give the XP some players have missed out due to the bug, we would need to change the system, manually track the XP and likely manually add the XP. The system of "just" adding the XP that was missed doesn't exist. Additionally we would also need to track all these players which would be an additional search that doesn't exist in the game.
I completely understand the notion and of course in an ideal world we wouldn't have had any progression blockers that cause this. I want to clearly say that it's not at all an easy or quick fix to do what was suggested.
Read moreI had the same thing happen to me. Because of the bug that shipped with the expansion, I was level 35 by the time I got done my first lieutenant. And I was only able to do that lieutenant because there was a phone next to the safe house leader and holding X activated both. So I hit level 40 after 3 lieutenants and 3 zones liberated.
By the time I finished Keener, I had gone up at least 4-5 levels on my screen (the effect showing it had happened), but I am now only at SHD level 1.
Let me reiterate: this issue was caused by the bug Massive let ship with the expansion. This was not me running around not doing the intended story because I felt like it. I literally couldn't do the story due to a game breaking bug. Massive should have a way to note who hit 40 before finishing the Manhunt story line and should have given us the appropriate SHD levels upon becoming eligible for them.
Shipping the expansion with a game breaking bug is unacceptable. Then (unintentionally or not) punishing players who kept playing, despite the bug, by hindering their end game advancement is just pouring lemon juice and salt on the wound. It may only be a few levels, but that's still time the players put in for literally no reward or advancement. /u/ChrisGansler /u/UbiJohan
While I completely agree that the bug causing players to not be able to progress was terrible and should not have happened, it doesn't really tie into the SHD Level situation. Gaining access to it is part of the campaign and you will need to finish it. I don't believe that will change.
Hey everyone,
Can you let me know if are you sharing the expansion on the same console where you are receiving the message you're locked out?
Thank you!
Can't talk to Agent Kelso for side missions either.
Yeah, I saw those comments too. I've forwarded this to the team.
I also have the same problem, but I'm on PC. No crashes though.
Her name also appear doubled, which is weird: https://i.postimg.cc/8524LF7z/screenshot.png
Hmm, interesting. Thank you!
Its error "CE-34878-0".
Hope it helps!
Thank you!
Hello,
Could you please share with us the playstation error you get?
Thank you!
Control points officers not. Can't give any resources.
Yep, that's unfortunate.
As correctly highlighted by headwrong here in the comments, we're aware of this and it's a different bug compared to the Community Leaders one.
We're looking at it of course.
Hey hey,
We're aware of the issue and the team is working on it. Of course, we'll share more info as soon as possible.
Game crashes on startup when the "snowdrop" logo animation is shown.
Already updated my drivers (AMD to v20.2.2, using a rx5700xt), game was running just fine until this update. Any ideas or tips to get it running?
Are you using DirectX 12 by any chance? We are seeing some reports and want to identify if it's the underlying issue.

I see a lot of confusion around this and we'll see if we can get more clarification on the intent. Keep in mind that we sometimes make changes that not everybody will like but that are part of a bigger revamp.
I'm missing one of the legacy cache items. I bought a key but when I try to open the box I just get a message that says "expired".
Hey! This should be fixed now. The cache accidentally tried to offer duplicate items. As that's not part of the rule set, Legacy Caches do not give you duplicate items, it returned the "expired" error.
Oh that's a big change to not be called out in the patch notes.
Yeah, that's on me. I actually had received the info but when compiling the Patch Notes I somehow lost track of it. I apologize this is a pretty significant change and we did not want to hide it or anything. My fault.
does dismantling turrets mid use no longer reduce cooldown or is it a bug?
This was an oversight on my side. It is on purpose and it's now reflected in the Patch Notes. Apologies.
My character is locked out of new york. After already getting to level 31. "This character no longer has access to war lords of new york" does anyone no what's going on
Can you give us a bit more details on this, please? What platform are you playing on and when did you purchase the expansion? Could you also DM me your Uplay and platform name (e.g. console username).
That also applies to anybody who has the same issue!
My two biggest questions:
- SHD levels apply for everyone, not just owners of the expansion?
- Faster movement and skill usage was mentioned about a month ago in relation to this patch. I didn't see it in the patch notes above. Did that get added?
"u/guczy Can someone please test if it really is true that higher level players cannot help lower level players anymore with doing story quests or how it works compared to pre-patch?
(from the stickied guide: "Higher-level players cannot participate in lower-level activities.")
Edit: also what happens if you go to NY and then try to join someones game who is in DC?",
how does this work??
You have to finish the New York campaign and reach Level 40. After that you can mix and match with lower level players in non-NY activities.
whats the word on exotics and about how theyre non starters for a build now?
I don't understand the question. If you're asking when you'll be able to upgrade them to Level 40 with Blueprints, no info on that yet. As we said previously we will likely offer that option down the line but for now it should be about hunting new loot.
There's anything new about optimization? I'm having problems with my setup and I can't identify the problem (RX 570, R3 2200G, 2X4 GB RAM)
No clue, that's more something for the support. I do know that new graphics drivers were released yesterday.
