Overview
- Hotfix 01.004.001 went live ahead of schedule with fixes for several crash causes, cave lighting issues, and erratic extraction shuttle landings.
- Arrowhead also buffed Dust Devils Warbond items, cutting the MS-11 Solo Silo cooldown to 180 seconds and reducing the S-11 Speargun reload to 2.5 seconds.
- CEO Shams Jorjani told players the game is not earning a passing grade on stability and that a fresh 60‑day push would not address deep engine fixes.
- Serious problems persist, including full system freezes on PC that support says are under investigation, plus cave mission quirks such as inconsistent respawns and stratagem calls.
- Players are urging a pause on new content to prioritize a health update, as the team notes overlapping content and fix responsibilities and the PC install size has swelled past 140GB, which leadership says is being reviewed.
