prop equipment e.g duffel bag that appears next to the bed in the kosatka when you complete the necessary prep work does not appear when you spawn in the sub. To make it reappear you need to renenter the sub

seems like its a 'global' bug with props

Seems like every time you pick up a shipwreck chest you unlock the frontier outfit all over again

-Teleporting to a random waypoint in -Director Mode on PS5 takes a few years.

-Appearance changes are still broken (option only switches lobbies).

-RT Shadows are bugged/broken: if you drive very slowly and stop, the shadow takes a little bit to "follow" you, if you drive in and out of an area with shadows, you get some artifacts on the car and finally, car doors shadows take a little bit to render underneath.

I'm on Xbox Series X, and now I am getting a very weird audio "echo" effect, most noticeable on NPC voices. Anyone else getting this?

I've already posted this issue, I'm just thankful it's not just me. Hopefully it will be fixed in the Summer update, I'm assuming it broke when they tried to fix the radio stations.

GOOD news, popularity missions aren't broken and up pop by at least 15%. So the thing from tuesday to thursday must've just been because the update was mid-event with affected values.

so popularity missions restore 1 and a quarter bars again?

at least 15%, I'd say 25% because that's the only value that makes sense since they haven't said they'd be or have adjusted since that change was made

My guess is the update with the changed NC safe payouts dropping in the middle of a week with them bonus'd got things a bit messed up?

It either defaulted to the original script (10k, 10%), or the updated bit/script where it was 25% was moved/changed (to include/reflect the now higher safe income) and it was only with the new event week that things went right again? Or perhaps, how/where they implemented the original 25% gain and the new gen's 50k + 'restructuring' wasn't in the same spot.

Whatever the case, the effect was the same: NC stayed/reverted to original operation until the weekly event refreshed things.

I mean, I haven't seen anyone on new gen complain... so it must've been only a problem where the payouts were still 10k normally.

Are you sure this is fixed? I am on Series X  and just did a promo mission when my pop was at around 3.75 bars full and afterwards it was around 4.5 bars. I will keep my eyes on this to see if I can be a bit more scientific in the numbers

[Mexicola9302]

Today i landed on water with the Sea Sparrow, and the noise that is played while landing on it, got stuck in a loop, that never happened before. After i landed on water again, the sound loop ended. Just imagine it sounded like well like water, can't describe it better.

 

I play on PC only.

Matchmaking on PC is completely broken, at least for user created games. And I do mean COMPLETELY. Has been since the day of the update. I play every day so I'm sure of that.

Can't speak for next gen because it seems they are still not quite in line with the other versions...

But pc is fine?

3.75 to 4.5 times 20% per bar is 15%

So it fits with my testing that it's at least 15% (so not the original 10%) .

This bug also affects the Agency office, and probably others. Widgets disappear.

Somewhere along the line, the guardian suspension options got broken (pretty sure it worked fine on PC BEFORE the latest patch)

Last few days  I had my spawn point set in Nightclub, on both of my characters (different locations, it's not same NC) and every time I log-in in game for first time I spawn in the middle of Los Santos Airport, that usual spot in between runways! 

I even had 'falling in to emptiness' for few seconds before 'landing' on airport grass 

... and it is same, while I'm logging in to Public and in Invite only!

When I change characters, or sessions, I do spawn inside NC...

 

Dont know what is this, but I'm on PC so maybe my profile/save is damaged by a hacker (I had 10k bounty put on me by one, and whole lobby, but I'm not sure about timing).

On PC I've been using my second character to rank it up a little, also bought a NC for it and logging in with the NC as spawn point sometimes makes him fall out of nowhere, being able to deploy the parachute even and suddenly standing at LSIA.

Just like you I thought it was some hack but it happens in invite only on a fresh start as well. Also, quite often I'm stuck with the NC loading screen, "Loading" forever, when logging in to invite only. Only way out is alt+F4, restart the game and use the character switch screen next time else it keeps happening. I changed the spawnpoint to it's appartment nearby, no problem there.

 

Also since this update: long "Transaction Pending" displays, probably while NC or other stock increases, in invite only so not caused by lag from highly populated session. Anyone else noticed this ?

[Mexicola9302]

Yeah the transaction message appears much longer on the screen than ever before. Already thought im the only one who has this happening.

 

Also since the latest update, i sometimes can't teleport to my heist room for some weird reason. Then after doing one or two freeroam missions, like doing a popularity mission for NC or sourcing a car, it suddenly works again. Something is fishy.

[SpaceBeagle]

Ok, nice (well not really nice ) Nightclub log-in problem is not just my thing!

It is weird that is happening only on initial fresh entering in to game, later it's ok. It is annoying to spawn on airport, cant call any vehicle from there and dont have any 'job teleport' map icon (I didn't use teleport to heist apartment)... so I have to run to find car or plane to get away 

 

Can conform, lots & lots of 'transaction pending' - I was thinking it's some new feature that is checking out for illegal money or something 

[Thomas Veil]

Transaction pending messages seem to be back to normal now, maybe they consulted support and cleared their cache

 

Edit: still getting this sometimes

Edited May 7 by Thomas Veil
Think I spoke too soon

[Thomas Veil]

Some notifications seem to be broken too. While ranking up as a low level with my 2nd character I'd get notices about new unlocks, like vehicle mod upgrades, weapon unlocks, clothing, ... after each level-up. Since the update, no more such notices.

When buying supplies for the bunker, it seems I also get no more message from agent14 when they arrive.

 

Special cargo: when collecting and having to lose the cops before arriving at the warehouse, you'd get a messagebox like "You can bribe the cops etc...". Now this message shows up after delivery, when the mission is over already. Same when selling, you'd get the message "Buyers only accept complete shipments... etc." from start, now I get this message when it's done. Not sure if this was a thing already but otherwise might be related being another nofication bug.

[Timsalabimbo]

I just did the Superdollar Deal, and upon leaving the trailer my personal vehicle had vanished.

Under the airport is where the Night Club interior is located I believe, so it's simply not loading it for some reason.

Can confirm this, whenever my safes update (i.e. Arcade, Agency, Nightclub, etc.) I get a much longer transaction pending message than before, on PC (all reports below are PC too). No specific situation, it just takes a lot longer. Potentially extra checks?

 

As for my own observations, the Interaction Menu's Quick GPS seems kind of broken. If you go back in the list so you jump straight to the latest properties, for some reason not all properties like the Diamond Casino & Resort appear. However, if I back out of the Interaction Menu and go forward through everything, the Diamond Casino & Resort will appear. Easy to repro, just try and go backwards in the list instead of forwards.

I finished the Diamond Casino Story missions recently, not sure if it's related, but I've heard reports from others that other locations seem to be temperamental with whether they appear or not, so it might be a bug.

 

As already reported before, spawning in the Agency will mean it for some reason will be reverted to the "day 1" state, i.e. moving boxes all over, etc. until you exit out and come back in. This bug was first introduced with the PS5 and Xbox Series original releases. It seems that the latest patch backported some of these regressions into PC and potentially last-gen.

I haven't checked as of this update

but before, if you're spinning the casino wheel or something that needed a transaction and you get a safe message right before, if you quickly disconnect/disable your ethernet, the safe would keep when you reconnect, but the popularity acts like the income was never deposited (doesn't drop) and hence, the safe message would appear again, and you could 'very quickly' fill the safe up to the limit without ever dipping popularity more than the 1 tick (~200k/70k in ~10-20 minutes instead of 3-6ish hours)

On the other hand, as of this update at least, if your router is down but ethernet connected, you will stay connected/in an invite lobby but get full screen transaction/server error messages, but income won't deposit while popularity continues to tick down, HOWEVER, it also seems that it doesn't quite register the tick passing, since not long after you reconnect, you'll get a daily income message sooner than you would expect

were you using the ses tailgater as the choice in mission select? That seems to cause a few issues...

That must have went well.  

 

 

My autoshop job still never updates, and I never get the popup saying new jobs are available. The list of vehicles on the wall never changes either. This has happened  to a friend as well.

it only updates in the period 1~5ish hours after the daily objectives change.

If you log in after that, it seems to not change

I used to see it change quite often. It's been the same 3 jobs now for almost two weeks until I recently played through one to get it to switch. A friend has the same thing happening.

It went alright, just a bit slower than it usually does. I stole the Barrage that came to attack me and outdrove the army jeeps.

 

As for the autoshop jobs; have you tried selecting one, then calling Sessanta to cancel the job? That used to reset the board.

We tried that, but it only works after you do the two preps. At that point, we've ended up just playing them out.
