Description: There was a lot of strange things happening lately in Ostervik, but what I saw yesterday was simply mind blowing. A mountain side had a very large patch of red lights - it was literally a carpet of infinitely spawning ticks. A friend of mine made a large progress in the challenges there
Steps To Reproduce: I saw this only around Ostervik, nowhere else.
I have had this same bug, and same Ăstervik area. Dead hunter spawning hundreds of ticks attacking anything nearby, even other robots. And if nothing was close enough, they would attack the dead hunter.
Heard lots of tick explosion and started to follow where this sound was coming from. When also first noticed huge field of red lights from the ticks.
Got lengthy of video recording saved from that.
this is a cockroach with babies situation and Iâm not sure if it was a bug or not but
recently I killed a hunter which then gave birth to 2 ticks
of course thatâs normal but then it was still giving birth, 2, 4, 6, 8
and then thousands of ticks came out from the dead hunter and they all stabbed me and exploded on me
is it possible that a dead hunter gives birth to thousands of ticks?
A ticket has been created for this issue and weâll investigate it further.
When this occurred do you know if you had the âEngineerâ specialization from the TECH skill tree active? We are starting so suspect that this is caused by a bug with that specialization.
Since the Base Assault update i have seen this many timesâŠ
more then 10 times
The FIrst Time:
A pack of 3 Fnix Hunters near the docks of Ăstervik
dropping Ticks behind them that then proceeded to attack the hunters
and when they had destroyed the Hunter they went after me and i Crashed.
The Second Time:
it were a Apocalypse Hunter, after i had destroyed it
and ran to the wreak i saw that it kept spawning Ticks pods, but these were not activating ticks, they just diapered after a short moment
(Also i think the Tick pad were Destroyed?, looks broken)
and after the 4th time i started Started Recording them when i heard the tick explosion in the distance and tracked down the source
It would also seem it have spread to the The Fnix Base nearby Ăstervik The âElgbakken Control Pointâ (North West of Ăstervik) <.<;
Also seems to draw more machines in, like Haywired ticks did, so it might be related?
This is the only time Iâve managed to get this close to the Base when it occurred before crashing
(also seems my FPS gets limited to 30 when this happens)
No, but one of my Characters had the Hacker Specialization, which I plan to pick something else after the âRe-specâ Update
but Iâll probably be back here before i pick anything just to check⊠^.~
Also it happens for Both my characters (the other is have the Medic Specialization)
This is a known issue that cropped back up from a update this year. Itll be fixed in a later update. It has also been reported a number of times since Base Assault.
Merged with main thread covering the issue. Like it said in the patch notes, itâs something thatâs still being looked into. Probably being hard to track down.
