Thanks everyone for sharing this! The team is looking into why the ticks keep spawning like that and we appreciate all the info we can get from you here!

This happened at Leräng Fnix base, Ticks spawned until the game crasched.
But it happens on alot more places as well, game is barely playable at the moment.
I didn’t experience it yet.
Does it happen just on steam or just on xbox / pc gamepass or on Playstation, too?
It happens everywhere, its judt very random
It’s not just ticks spawning. I’m often seeing them accompanied by flames as if they’re being fired by an enemy along with very odd AI from the enemies at the scene.

Got it sorted out. It’s the FNIX outposts. The more are active (under FNIX control) the worse everything gets (ticks, gnomes, uninteractable things, etc.).
I had 17 active tier 3 outposts 
I destroyed every FNIX outpost, and about at 7-8 left active everything went back to normal… even Hagaboda!
Even the toughest machines FNIX has to offer can’t stand the might of the infinite tick spawns. They can quite quickly overwhelm a FNIX tank.
I claimed 10 outposts (4 forest + 6 farmland) of those 17, and I have on average only 1 or 2 FNIX bases taken control off by FNIX.
The more FNIX have, the worse it gets. As we said was the case with the forest region re: hunting gnomes. But this issue has been here since the dawn of time; long before FNIX bases were a thing, and it used to happen mainly in Haga for me.
It definitely seems related to game performance. It used to be a great indicator of gnomes, which leads me to believe that the gnomes were some kind of debug prank / indicator by a dev and were never meant to be seen.
They don’t even have to spawn from a dead machine. Here we have a tank spawning and then attacking their own ticks.
Had the same thing happen but my guy got flipped and flopped around by the angry little buggers!
Nope. I’m Marksman. My friend is Vanguard. I’m MAKING an Engineer, but it happened on Himjfall the other night while I was in the bunker outside the “town with two grocery stores” and during the quest chain there got backed into the bunker by Apocalypse class Hunters who dropped infinite Apocalypse class Ticks. Kinda annoying, kinda want it fixed after I get Pest Control.
Oh your ‘New Dawn Update’ you mentioned in the ‘know bug’ section, that there was a but that happens around Ostivik. Well, I got news for ya! I just watched for over 15 min. (after sniping a hunter until he exploded to death) continue to spawn continuously large groups of Ticks. The ticks were constantly attacking the other Hunters and walkers in the area. I was perched on a rise just outside my safe house at map cord. -2348.219, 3423.430 (a small island) and killed the Hunter on a small peninsula that is just East of Stenungsnas (in the Southern Region, far from Ostivik)
You’re right. I’ve moved this to the current thread covering the issue and adjusted the title.

Sometimes it’s not a bug but a really useful “feature”…
At least it made the daily assignment “Kill 20 Ticks” a few days ago fairly easy to complete… 
That was near Klinte btw

…it is not possible to reduce the number of FNIX bases.
Every time you try to destroy an FNIX base, the game crashes just before the base is destroyed.

How many fnix bases do you already have?
There is another topic to this issue where a dev asked some questions regarding this.
Feel free to write it down there, too… And to participate at the poll.
Sadly, if you got at the point that you’re not able to destroy a base because of the crashes, even after multiple tries, you have to wait for the update on 23rd and hope that it fixes this issue.
… does anyone know what that is???
I see the first time…
…is this a bug too ?
