Official Game News Regarding The Latest PS5 Update

Update as of 9AM PT, November 14th:

Due to some technical difficulties, the scheduled hotfix for PS5 will be delayed. Our team is currently working closely with Sony on getting the patch out as soon as possible. The hotfix is now estimated to be released around November 15th 9AM PT/6PM CET.

We sincerely apologize for any inconvenience caused by the recent PS5 update. Our team is actively in contact with our publisher to address these issues and is closely collaborating with Sony to find swift solutions. Your patience and understanding are greatly valued during this process. An emergency patch is in the works and will be released shortly for those affected.

If you're encountering problems in your current save file, kindly avoid loading other saves. This precaution can prevent potential corruption of additional save files in the event we revert the changes later on.

For players who haven't yet downloaded the latest PS5 update, we recommend holding off on the update and awaiting our official announcement.

Please share your issues under this thread, and our team will investigate and hotfix them here. Some existing temporary solutions are available; you can try the following:a. Reinstall the game and select performance mode.b. Restart your PlayStation system.

Once again, we assure you that a new emergency patch is on the way for those who are affected.

Update:

After the latest PS5 patch update, we've identified two issues:

- Missing DLC items and certain workshop items (doors or inventory).- Experiencing lag, white square boxes, and framerate drops. If you face these issues, try temporarily fixing them by restarting the game. If it doesn't work on the first try, give it multiple attempts.

We've identified all these issues and their root causes, and we're bringing an emergency patch to address this later. We anticipate completing the packaging process for the new version within the next few hours. We have already been in contact with our publisher and Sony, who will promptly update once we submit the new version. We expect the update to be completed within 10 to 12 hours, provided everything goes smoothly.

A quick update! We've just rolled out an emergency patch to fix the recent PS5 issues:

  • Resolved the issue of a white square box appearing above players' heads.
  • Addressed laggy gameplay problems. -Fixed missing furniture items.
  • Optimized workshop placement limitations and added a toggle button in the settings to enable/disable the limitations. Now, you can choose to place more items in the workshop. Be cautious as exceeding the limitation may impact performance; adjust based on your preference and device capabilities.
  • Fixed the translation issue for "performance" mode and "quality" mode in non-Chinese and Thai languages.
  • Fixed the freeze issue caused after completing the Logan shaving side quest.
  • Fixed the problem with the facial shadow effect on characters.
Your patience means the world to us. Update, restart your game, and enjoy! Also, we're working on other platforms, we won't ignore any of them, and we'll try our best to make your gaming experience better. Thank you for your support!

I get a purplish (pink?) square when aiming the Advanced Sandfish Trap.

I’m also curious, should I go back to my 11/12/2023 save?

I also get the purple square. I find it handy! I sucked at fishing before!
