370 hours played, 6 lost characters, 38 full load outs gone (95% Icarus bug, 5% personal error)

[Tea Baggins]

I have 370 hours of game play in Icarus. This game requires time to farm Exotics and Ren, to purchase load outs to get the proper start on a mission. The most frustrating part of this game is having to spend all the time then losing your hard worked load out due to an Icarus bug allowing your body, with your load out, to fall through the map removing the ability to recover your load out. I have lost track of how many times this has happened. When it does i legitimately stop playing. I was in E15 cave in waterfall cave on Styx, get killed by croc's and then my body falls through map making it so i can't pick up my load out. I hate that these bugs ruin the game for me. Makes me not want to play. The developers need to understand the bugs are not fun to deal with. If i was loosing load outs because of my own skill would be different.
Please implement the ability to farm Ren and Exotics to be farmed in open world. In not a too serious of matter. Killing world bosses or farming it. What ever it needs to be done, because having to replay missions to farm back load outs to continue the game makes it so the game doesn't want to be played by the people who are spending time in this game. This is a solution to keep people around even with the bugs. Because you lose a load out well what ever i will hope on open world farm a bit and get load out back.
The maps are huge and hard to hit every area i get it but its still somewhat common to lose load outs through map. Happened to everyone i play with recently as well. Makes us all not want to play.

The mission bug posts seem to be rising. 00
I was going to do missions soon, but I may wait...
I will wait until the frequency of lost character and gear loss complaints are not noticeable.

I don't want to lose my character, I don't want to lose gear.

I may just practice my survival procedures in "Open World" for awhile.

Email [e-mail] with details and they may be able to help you out!

Yeah we get how frustrating this must have been. With the upcoming data decentralization changes we talk about in this week's news post there should be fewer issues like this in future, or it will be easier to recover as the key player and load out data will be stored on your PC.

Honest question - how do you manage to die so often with 370 (!) hours of experience? Like, are you purposefully dead set on repeating same mistakes over and over and over again?

I want to sympathise, but my man, if you lose not one or two workshop loads, but, as you say, 38 - at this point, its not the game. Its you.

600 hours, never happened once. Yep, something you're doing.

Bull$hitting with the numbers doesn't help your cause, in fact it damages it. You haven't lost 38 loadouts, and whatever number you did lose it was not 95% bugs and 5% your personal error.

The game has bugs, you can sometimes clip through the ground, and it can sometimes cause you to lose your body. 1 in 1000 deaths, it may happen. So, unless you are the literally worst player to ever exist, you are lying. Lie less, die less.

That being said, yes, bugs should be fixed ASAP, of course.

380 hours here never lost a single workshop item... and I have died.. several times.. maybe like 10 or so times... If you are this bad at the game might I suggest playing on a lower setting? maybe stick with outpost.. lol

[Maleficusss]

800h never happened with 5 characters...

FOR REAL! Ive lost one loadout in 200 hours. If you glitch out BIG TIME remove from prospects! It fixes the problem and gives you back your equipment. If you die a lot to enemies, falling, and whatnot, you have bigger problems in life...
