I’m still falling through the ground (on PC) seems as though the devs can’t fix this issue, as it’s been in the game a long time now and still no fix. Can’t reproduce as it’s so random.

It isn’t as simple as you think.

If you watch the vid i linked in this topic (10th reply), you’d know why.

See the Map, just fell through, had to fast travel away twice to get back to solid ground

see the red arrow, it was along this route somewhere

Playing solo, guerrilla mode and when I stepped out of the safe house at Hjalmars Stuga, I kept falling, repeatedly. I was finally able to access the map and fast travel to Jagarstuugan but the same thing happened. I was again able to fast travel to another safe house [airport] and it seemed ok but by that time I’d had enough. The rips in the map take the fun out of the game.

On a similar note, this happened to my buddy & I last night, playing coop, adventure mode. Each of us experienced the map rips at different locations, multiple times. We hope you are able to find a fix, to keep the game playable & fun. Cheers

I’ve had this once too, but what I found it to fix itself is if you were in a forest and spawned on a solid rock. The rock pushed me away and fixed the issue. I think at one point the game miscalculates your height to the map when going between each piece of grid. It’s not all one big map, as it’s split in chunks, so I feel the culprit is your transition between the grids and miscalculation at he same time…

Since there is a function to respawn the player back on the top of the map if they fall off, maybe it’s an option to raise that respawn up a few units above ground. If it was that simple, it’d be fixed though.

EDIT: Still, restart the game and it fixes itself… Takes me 1 whole minute to relaunch

Relevant topics merged. The general workaround for the issue right now is to quit the game and restart.

@Admiralgamer feel free to flag the post for moderator action next time, instead of just posting meaningless off-topic. It makes our job easier.

Machines fall too:

If you were near a Rival when this happened than you can say a quick bye bye.

I encountered this bug moreoften lately, too, on different locations and occasions.

“Fun” fact about falling machines, it seems to have killed two of my rivals.

Fast travelled to a safe house, heard a distant boom and got the message “xxx” killed by player, a nearby rival (hunters each) had diseased. And when I stepped out to try to find the remains the falling started.
I got this two times until now. But I didn’t notice the connection between rival-death and falling through the map on the first incident.

Finally a screenshot of what’s going on - I reported this some time ago, but never got any reaction to it. Falling through the earth

I was at the safehouse at -1923.899 -3868.379 opened my map and fell through the map until I fast traveled to a place with other surfaces under me. Ended up quitting to main menu to fiximage

This is a known issue. Merged with relevant topic.

In the bottom picture where I have circled somewhere in that area I was running towards the town and I fell Through the map. After fast traveling to the nearby safe house I couldn’t get back to the area because I kept falling through still shown on the top picture.

Platform: PC

Description: Fast traveled to the safehouse in Hastvik and ran out the right barn door

Steps To Reproduce: Unsure, though I fast traveled to get out of the portal style freefall over and over, and ran out the same door and it happened again.

I thought this was fixed? Also, this is my second Xbox account since my main account crashes on startup every time i try and play on it. Really hope it gets fixed soon because i have all safehouses unlocked and about 2-3 of every 5 crown gun. took me a while to build all of that up :sweat_smile:image

Also, do note that falling through world map isn’t only issue of GZ but with all 3D games and it is impossible to fix this kind of issue. Further info and why it can be fixed, is seen from the video in 10th reply in this topic (direct link: Falling Through the Ground).

I wouldn’t say it’s impossible, that’s stretching it a bit. It depends on the game engine.
