Bug List
So I really, really, really like this game, but it's also incredibly broken and busted. So I have decided to list a bunch of bugs in the hope that bringing attention to them helps them get fixed.


- The player character will randomly become invincible for seemingly no reason this tends to happen 100% of the time during boss battles but I found it also can happen on Fortress fixed as of Wednesday, August 12th 2020

- Certain levels like Sinking City will cause the game to crash 100% without fail a little bit after loading back in after a death

- Either using the axe too much crashes the game or killing too many black blobs crashes the game, possibly a combination of both

- When the game crashes a UT4 crash window pops up with the words "Unhandled Exception: EXCEPTION_ACCESS_VIOLATION"

- Sometimes when falling down the pit in the final level you won't get teleported to the final room and you will get stuck in there with Lusts' bits and pieces

- The game uses 97% of the CPU which I'm just kinda throwing in here because fixing that might alleviate some of these other problems fixed as of Sunday, August 16th 2020

- The game will sometimes freeze and lock you out of alt tabbing

- Enemies will always treat glass like a solid wall they have to walk around instead of shooting you through it

- While you are cooking a grenade you can still shoot your gun

- If you were shooting an automatic gun before dying when you respawn at a pattern buffer the game will keep firing the gun until you hit left click

- If you reload the SMG and then switch weapons mid reload the SMG will be stuck reloading and won't allow you to fire until it's complete, once the reload does complete though despite not being equipped the SMG will continue to fire until you left click (this one is a little weird so I have footage of it)

If you guys have experienced any other game breaking or annoying bugs please list them here, honestly I think this game is great but these bugs really really get in the way of being able to enjoy the game for what it is, hopefully this post helps get these bugs fixed.

Yea pretty much all of that. I really hope it gets a patch soon as other than some technical issues this game is really great.

I can't complete the sinking city (E4M4) because of the constant crashing. Good thing there is a hidden menu with level skip. Not ideal but at least it's possible to complete the game this way.

Have you tried running in windowed mode? I heard it helps a lot. Personally, I've been running it in windowed and have yet to run into problems.

No but I'll try, would be awesome if this fixes all the crashing.

That was it, not a single crash on E4M4, was finally able to beat it.
F11 seems to toggle between windowed and fullscreen borderless btw.

Not really game breaking in any way, but today I had an interesting glitch wherein my SMG somehow achieved what seemed to be 4x zoom but with the red dot's crosshair, turning it into the world's least effective sniper rifle. I have no idea what caused it, but I feel like it has to be tied to the weapon upgrades somehow. It wasn't an one off thing either, it persisted for the rest of the game even after quitting (crashing on sunken city) and reloading.

Now E5M3 crashes all the time, even though I play in windowed mode. Can't even go back to the main menu without crashing. :mbshaaa:

Try custom launch:
-d3d12 -USEALLAVAILABLECORES -NOTEXTURESTREAMING

Same thing, didn't take more than a minute to crash. :mbgaan:

Thanks for cataloguing these, I'll pin this thread so these can be tracked easier.

Hey man no problem I'm glad I could help

Reloading the flechette smg gun whilst its still full will cause you throw a full magazine away, wasting ammunition. I'm not sure if this is intended because you can do the same with the auto-rifle and not loose ammunition.

I can't seem to pickup weapons like the Diesel gun or interact with door switches unless I crouch before.

And with the Diesel gun once I crouch to grab it I can't stand up.

Also the red hooded enemies can't throw their axes at me if I'm even a little bit above or below them

Cereste's dialog restarts as soon as I hit farewell and ends up being stuck behind the usual HUD

Actually that dialog bug seems to apply to alot of things, Tycho's dialog always forces me to go through it twice and Lysander starts his teleport animation before I finish his dialog

Theres also two book shelves on the Gauntlet map that I can't seem to read https://steamcommunity.com/sharedfiles/filedetails/?id=2208710988

Ammo capacity of an equipped heavy weapon (eg. hyper blaster, dieselgun) is doubled when picking up a different heavy weapon. Presumably, this can be repeated until you hit integer overflow.

Exact same issue. Happens for sure in E5M2 where you can pick up the dieselgun and the hyper blaster in the same level, infinitely doubling ammo. Only happens with two heavy weapons (i.e. dropping the same heavy weapon and picking it up does not double ammo). Not game breaking per se, but a clear bug none the less.
