PS Update 33 Experience Today

katanagirl1

So it seems like everything went pretty smoothly today, congrats to the devs. I’m not going to debate the whole AWA thing, but at least I didn’t seem to lose anything.

A few things I did notice:

1. The rumble when opening chests on PS5 is back to the more noticeable level it used to be, so that’s good.
2. Sprint bug with mount or player is much more frequent now.
3. I was able to port to my Thieves Guild house once but the second time nothing happened. Will have to check further.
4. Didn’t get a chance to test Night Silence set, heard it was fixed on PC but would like to verify myself.
5. Number of disconnects especially when switching characters has increased. I got dropped when fast traveling once too.
6. New character in Deadlands saw blank map and delve questsgivers were present. Seems to be working like before not sure what the uproar was on PC.

Nice to see a lot of bugs fixed before we got this patch. Thanks for all the hard work.

EDIT: typo

PC players received this Night's Silence fix in an PATCH post Update 33, so I doubt this fix made it into the console version of update 33... which means you'll have to wait until next console patch for it to apply.

Biggest issue is when changing from one character to another, console locks up and I get an Error 303 and kicked from the game.

While there were definitely some uproar posts based on inaccuracies, not everything is working like before.
While a map will remain blank for a character that hasn't been in that zone before, if we take your example of a delve the differences are clear.
Prior to update 33, on first approach to a delve, your character would discover it, and then it would remain on the map black, discovered but not completed, until your character killed the delve boss. Now, assuming that another character on your account had already completed that delve, it will immediately go to white, completed status once you discover it.
This has no impact on delve quest givers, but it does affect delve boss respawn.

running female woodelves look ridiculous, no longer cute

My observations from playing a few hours yesterday on PS5:
• Loading into character select is much faster
• Logging into a character is a tiny bit faster
• Logging out of a character is much faster
• Shipwright’s Regret made the barswap lag really bad - has to reloadui which did not fully fix it.
• Sprinting bug (randomly stuck in sprint) is more frequent
• Trying to view the list of my titles freezes the game for 1 second which is weird
• PS4 trophies finally carried over onto PS5 as a side effect of account-wide achievements
• Personally I don’t like the UI of the “individual” achievements....

I think there may have been performance improvements this patch! But it’s also early so, it’s hard to tell atm.

Looks like you are correct, Night Silence is still bugged for me. This is very disappointing because we have waited for months and consoles don’t get updates as frequently as PC.

Addition to list:
7. The area Brandfire Reformatory in the Deadlands has some hellacious lag now. I cannot begin to describe how laggy it is. It is those NPCs that use Guard to tether together during combat.

Heavy attacks have long been a problem for my main character when dual wielding. Either they don’t go off or they don’t hit the boss and I don’t get the stamina return for them. Nothing new for me this patch.
