We are already working on fixes for the following known issues:[/p][p]Gameplay & Level Specifics[/p]
- [p]Location-specific bugs: Dying on the bridge in Jotunheim, in a gate in Svartalfheim, or gaining a revive while on the elevator in Helheim may cause bugged behavior.[/p]
- [p]Enemy Spawning: You might see enemies spawning within the camera's view, or occasionally see fewer enemies than intended.[/p]
- [p]Camera: In very specific cases, it is possible for players to move outside of the camera's boundaries.[/p]
- [p]Player 2 Unlocks: Currently, Player 2 cannot unlock weapons during co-op sessions.[/p]
- [p]Gold Collection: If one player is dead and out of revives, Gold cannot be collected.[/p]
- [p]Selection Memory: The game may not always remember your hero, skin, or weapon choices between sessions.[/p]
- [p]Control Issues: Input issues may occur after changing video settings in co-op, and gamepad controls cannot currently be reset within the Lobby Screen.[/p]
- [p]Endless Timer: The timer visually counts down instead of up (this is a visual bug only).[/p]
- [p]Visual Glitches: You may notice some flickering or glitches on hero skins and weapons.[/p]
- [p]Menu Navigation: There are known navigation issues when moving through the Options menu.[/p]
[p]Note: If you encounter a bug not listed here, please report it via the in-game form, your feedback is exactly why we are running this test![/p][p]----------------[/p][p]Thanks for helping us test the game - we truly couldn’t do this without you.
