Earlier this month, Outriders developer People Can Fly responded to criticisms and concerns about issues during the launch of the Outriders demo. The developer detailed a target wish list for Outriders demo and full launch changes and pledged to start rolling out fixes within a week or so. Today People Can Fly followed up on that promise, releasing some platforms specific fixes mentioned previously and providing an update on future patches. This round of patches specifically targets issues in the Outriders demo for PC, PS4, and PS5.
This update comes a few days after People Can Fly released a new trailer for Outriders giving players some background to understand the augmented warriors fighting on Enoch. That same day, the developers responded to the Outriders demo’s positive reception and encouraged players that the Outriders experience would only get better when the full game launches. But until April 1, People Can fly has some work to do to address the most common complaints in the demo.
Today’s patch list follows the last developer update pretty closely. One of the biggest questions so far for the Outriders demo has been how to turn off motion blur, and this patch has added a motion blur toggle on all targeted platforms. Matchmake timing has also been improved across the board, as well as various other smaller bug fixes.
Another big issue addressed for all targeted platforms is the variable cutscene frame rates. The Outriders demo has a lot of cutscenes, and players have experienced issues with frame rate drops during many of these key moments. People Can Fly has made some minor changes to cutscene frame rates but are looking to add to these fixes in future updates.
For platform specific fixes, PC players will no longer be losing gear if they experience a dropped connection, and opening a menu or the player inventory should no longer crash the game. The “Bad Day” quest has also received some subtitle and synchronization fixes. PS4/PS5 players will now no longer have issues with the “Buy Now” button in the lobby, and another cutscene specific fix will ensure that there is no bothersome audio desynchronization.
Xbox players won’t be affected by this patch as of yet, but People Can Fly is currently testing patch fixes for the Outriders demo on Xbox One and Xbox Series X|S and will hopefully have fixes up soon. The fixes for Xbox consoles should look similar to the ones already released for other platforms and may also include some platform specific solutions.
