Outriders has gotten a server-side patch to "drastically reduce" inventory wipes

Outriders developer People Can Fly says it has deployed several server-side updates to its new multiplayer game that should "drastically reduce" the occurrence of the dreaded inventory bug that's been the bane of co-op sessions since launch. The team says it continues work on a client-side patch that will eventually eliminate the issue entirely.

In an update posted today by Square Enix's community management team, People Can Fly says it has "continued to monitor and implement preventative measures against inventory wipes" in Outriders, and that it's seen improvement in the frequency of the issue since its first server-side update Saturday. The team says it's still collecting and monitoring feedback from players, but that inventory wipes should now be far less frequent than they were last week.

The bug seems to occur when co-op sessions of Outriders crash, and People Can Fly has said that it plans on a restoration of lost legendary- and epic-tier equipment once the matter has been resolved. Restored items will probably have different rolls than when you picked them up, and lost blue and green items are most likely gone for good.

Outriders inventory wipe bug still happening, fixing it is "top priority"

11 April 2021 Inventory wipes are still happening, and resolving the glitch is People Can Fly's "top priority"

An irritating Outriders bug has been wiping players' inventories, and now unfortunately, the latest patch that aimed to fix it hasn't helped much. Developer People Can Fly says it's working on sorting the bug, and a "mass restoration" event is due for the coming weeks to give everyone back their most valuable loot, once everything has been resolved.

Developer People Can Fly posted about the bug, and the planned event after, on the official subreddit. The fix in the patch rolled out this week hasn't worked, leaving yet more players with lost saves and disappearing equipment and weapons. People Can Fly has doubled-down on efforts to neutralise the issue, stating "resolving the inventory wipe is our top priority and will remain so until fixed."

The plan before the new influx of reports was to remedy those inconvenienced. A one-off restoration is planned, on a date to-be-determined, that will give everyone back their legendary and epic pickups. It's "unlikely" that blue items will be included. When this happens, everything should just slide into your inventory alongside your existing collection. Items restored this way might not have the exact stats from when you last used them.
