We’ve been working hard to make sure FixForce plays great on Deck, and we’ll keep fine-tuning it throughout Early Access as well.

BUG FIXES

  • Improved building stability and predictability so that removing a non-essential piece won’t bring the whole structure down

  • Adjusted all maps to address invisible blockout, preventing players from getting stuck or out of bounds

  • Fixed issues in which players in the same group were seeing different amounts of remaining lives

  • Fixed issues with Challenges in which they sometimes didn’t trigger for players when they should

  • Multiple audio fixes in which SFX weren’t playing

  • Fixed issue in which wrench VFX sometimes got stuck on-screen on low latency

  • Fixed issue in which ‘Days Since Last Incident’ sign didn’t show the correct number of days.

  • Fixed an issue in which the very big sign sparkles extravagantly when inserted into a beacon

  • Slight tweaks to player materials

  • Small fixes across Proximity Chat to make everyone sound even nicer
