Remnant II Xbox X|S Patch Notes 8/15

Remnant II Patch Notes: 384,210 / 1.0.0.11

--Performance and Crashes--

• Updates to improve hitching and potential crashes.

• Fixed multiple reported crash bugs.

--Achievements & Difficulty Rewards—

• Retroactively fixed several achievements that weren’t tracked correctly.

• Retroactively fixed as many difficulty-based rewards as possible.

DEV NOTE: To unlock difficulty rewards and achievements, you must interact with the World Stone.

QOL OVERVIEW: While we still have quite a few things we are working on regarding Traits and long-term grinding (for those that wish to partake), we wanted to make a few changes in this patch to ensure players had more freedom to experiment. Players should find it much easier to Respec and they should also end up with more Scrap overall. We aren't done here by any means, and these are not the larger changes we've mentioned on Discord and Reddit, but in the short term, they should help to ease the burden or reconfiguring your build and experimenting with different options.

• Increased Trait Cap by +5.

• Tome of Knowledge now grants Scrap and EXP when the player has reached Trait Cap.

• Orb of Undoing now has unlimited uses. Players can sell any extras for Scrap.

• Removed the Trait Requirement for equipping a second Archetype. Players may now slot their second Archetype as soon as they obtain / convert another Engram at Wallace.

• Removed the Scrap Cost for converting a Mysterious Item into an Engram (1000 to 0).

• Lowered the Lumenite Cost for converting a Mysterious Item into an Engram (10 to 5).

• Slightly Increased Scrap Gain from Breakables.

• Increased Scrap Gain from Regular and Rare Chests.

• Increased Scrap Gain when killing Aberrations.

• Reduced the cost of Bloodroot.

• Added all unlocked Archetypes to Wallace’s inventory. If players have unlocked any Secret Archetype (by converting a Mysterious Item into an Engram), he will then sell them for all future characters. If you can start with it, Wallace will sell it.

• Reduced the requirement to obtain Revivalist Trait. Also included Very Good Boy.

• Updated Nimue, Bedel (Old Vaunnt), and N'Erud Vending Machine, and Blood Altar to properly keep their items in stock.

• Fixed the Damage Reduction calculation in Advanced Stats. While this was a bug, we still wanted to make sure it was at the top of the list because it was giving players incorrect info.

• Reduced Multiplayer Scaling per player by an additional 5% (from 15% to 10%). This means that in 3 player COOP, all players will now take 10% less damage (5% less per player).

• Increased the chance that Cass spawns her special rewards.

• Increased invulnerability time on standard Revive by 0.7s to give players a bit more time to react after being revived.

• Experience gained is shared across any distance in multiplayer (previously 40m max range) and to dead teammates.

--Balance—

[ General ]

• Reduced Vicious enemy affix from 33% to 15%.

• Reduced Spiteful enemy affix from 0-45% to 0-25%. This is based on current enemy Health.

• Reduced Thick Skin enemy affix from -15% Critical Chance & -25% Critical Damage to -10% and 15%, respectively.

• Reduced Hearty enemy affix from 25% Max HP to 15% Max HP.

• Increased Bulwark Damage Reduction from 6,5,4,3,2% (20% MAX) to 7,6,5,4,3% (25% MAX).

[ Armor ]

ARMOR OVERVIEW: We made a few tweaks to various armor types to give them unique benefits that were applicable for all difficulties. We felt that the baseline Heavy Armor values (at approximately 35% Damage Reduction) were in a good spot, especially with our recent changes to certain enemy affixes, so we adjusted the other armors to bring them up to par in their own way. Armor-based Damage Reduction is typically the easiest type of DR to get in the game, and due to its importance at higher levels, the lower-value armors were becoming less than desirable.

• Adjusted Light Armor Damage Reduction Value from approximately 15% to 25%.

• Adjusted Medium Armor Damage Reduction Value from approximately 25% to 30%.

• Adjusted Ultra Heavy Armor Damage Reduction Value from approximately 45% to 50%.

• Increased Light Armor Evade Invulnerability by 2 frames.

• Increased Medium Armor Evade Invulnerability by 1 frame.

• Increased Ultra Heavy Neutral Evade Invulnerability by 1 frame.

Armor Evade Value and Stamina Penalty Reference:

- Light Evade (25 Encumbrance or Lower): 12 iFrames, 0% Stamina Cost Penalty.

- Medium Evade (26-50 Encumbrance): 11 iFrames, 25% Stamina Cost Penalty.

- Heavy Evade (51-75 Encumbrance): 10 iFrames, 50% Stamina Cost Penalty.

- Ultra Heavy (76+ Encumbrance): 15 iFrames (Flop), 75% Stamina Cost Penalty.

DEV NOTE: No changes were made to Stamina Cost Penalty. These are original values. Additionally, Heavy Evade and Ultra Heavy Flop have their original iFrame value as well. The only changes regarding iFrames were to the two lighter Weight Classes.

[ Archetypes ]

• Handler Companion and Summoner Minions gain increased health per difficulty. On Apocalypse, they will have the highest base health.

• Increased Challenger's Intimidating Presence Range from 10m to 15m.

Explorer Archetype

• Increased the duration of Explorer's Scavenger Buff per pickup from 15s to 20s.

• Increased the duration of Explorer's Gold Digger Buffs from 15s to 20s.

• Increased the healing amount of Gold Digger Healing Fountain from 1.5 to 2.0 HP per second.

DEV NOTE: We wanted to make sure Explorer could maintain Scavenger longer between fights and give them more freedom while Gold Digger Fountains were active. We increased the durations by 5s each and boosted the Healing Fountain to be more enticing.

Archon Archetype

• Increased Archon Havoc Form Lighting Hands damage from 28 to 56.

• Increased Archon Havoc Form Blink damage from 100 to 150.

• Reduced Archon Havoc Form Cooldown from 120s to 90s.

DEV NOTE: These changes are in response to bug fix that allowed Havoc Form Lighting Hands to deal ridiculous damage. We made some overall adjustments to compensate.

Challenger Archetype

• Adjusted the damage falloff for Challenger's Close Quarters perk. At maximum range, Challenger will always maintain a 10% damage bonus to All Damage.

Handler Archetype

• Increased the Handler's Pack Hunter Range from 25m to 40m.

[ Weapons ]

DEV NOTE: Nightfall was dealing far more damage than other weapons in both modes (almost 20% more w/ Dreadwalker active compared to other guns with their Mod active). When considering damage and the Mod ability (harder to hit, life siphon, and fire rate), it was pushing Nightfall too far above every other Long Gun. It now sits closer in line with other high-damage weapons.

• Reduced the AOE Burst Damage of Enigma's Overload Application from 40 to 30.

• Reduced the Subsequent Tether Damage of Enigma Primary Fire from 75% to 65%.

• Reduced the Magazine Capacity of Enigma from 30 to 25.

DEV NOTE: Enigma was performing too far above our goal for AOE clear, so a few adjustments were made. There is still an issue with it ignoring Armor which will be addressed in the future. However, when that happens, we will reevaluate the numbers.

[ Enemies ]

• Adjusted downtime and overall combat flow for Annihilation.

• Adjusted Annihilation Mine behavior on Survivor difficulty.

• Reduced damage on Nightweaver’s grab attacks (Wall and Lunge).

Remnant 2 Patch Notes: 08.10.23

Patch Version: 384,210

--Performance and Crashes--

• Ongoing optimizations to improve overall performance.

• Fixed multiple reported crash bugs.

• Potential fix for "GameThread timed out waiting for RenderThread" crash.

--Out Of Memory when Loading (Intel 13th generation CPU’s)--

We have identified an issue on some Intel 13th generation CPU’s where upon startup the game will display a message about being out of video memory or the crash reporter will pop up referencing an issue with decompressing a shader. If you experience this problem, you will likely also see it in other DX12 games.

If your CPU is overclocked, try setting it back to the defaults. If you’re not overclocked or that doesn’t work, try installing Intel Extreme Tuning Utility:

https://www.intel.com/content/www/us/en/download/17881/intel-extreme-tuning-utility-intel-xtu.html and lowering your “Performance Core Ratio” from 55x to 54x.

--Achievements & Difficulty Rewards—

• Retroactively fixed several achievements that weren’t tracked correctly.

• Retroactively fixed as many difficulty-based rewards as possible.

DEV NOTE: To unlock difficulty rewards and achievements, you must interact with the World Stone.

--Quality of Life--

• Added all unlocked Archetypes to Wallace’s inventory. If players have unlocked any Secret Archetype (by converting a Mysterious Item into an Engram), he will then sell them for all future characters. If you can start with it, Wallace will sell it.

• Reduced the requirement to obtain Revivalist Trait. Also included Very Good Boy.

• Updated Nimue, Bedel (Old Vaunnt), and N'Erud Vending Machine, and Blood Altar to properly keep their items in stock.

• Fixed the Damage Reduction calculation in Advanced Stats. While this was a bug, we still wanted to make sure it was at the top of the list because it was giving players incorrect info.

• Reduced Multiplayer Scaling per player by an additional 5% (from 15% to 10%). This means that in 3 player COOP, all players will now take 10% less damage (5% less per player).

• Increased the chance that Cass spawns her special rewards.

• Increased invulnerability time on standard Revive by 0.7s to give players a bit more time to react after being revived.

• Experience gained is shared across any distance in multiplayer (previously 40m max range) and to dead teammates.

--Balance—

[ General ]

• Reduced Vicious enemy affix from 33% to 15%.

• Reduced Spiteful enemy affix from 0-45% to 0-25%. This is based on current enemy Health.

• Reduced Thick Skin enemy affix from -15% Critical Chance & -25% Critical Damage to -10% and 15%, respectively.

• Reduced Hearty enemy affix from 25% Max HP to 15% Max HP.

• Increased Bulwark Damage Reduction from 6,5,4,3,2% (20% MAX) to 7,6,5,4,3% (25% MAX).

[ Armor ]

ARMOR OVERVIEW: We made a few tweaks to various armor types to give them unique benefits that were applicable for all difficulties. We felt that the baseline Heavy Armor values (at approximately 35% Damage Reduction) were in a good spot, especially with our recent changes to certain enemy affixes, so we adjusted the other armors to bring them up to par in their own way. Armor-based Damage Reduction is typically the easiest type of DR to get in the game, and due to its importance at higher levels, the lower-value armors were becoming less than desirable.

• Adjusted Light Armor Damage Reduction Value from approximately 15% to 25%.

• Adjusted Medium Armor Damage Reduction Value from approximately 25% to 30%.

• Adjusted Ultra Heavy Armor Damage Reduction Value from approximately 45% to 50%.

• Increased Light Armor Evade Invulnerability by 2 frames.

• Increased Medium Armor Evade Invulnerability by 1 frame.

• Increased Ultra Heavy Neutral Evade Invulnerability by 1 frame.

Armor Evade Value and Stamina Penalty Reference:

- Light Evade (25 Encumbrance or Lower): 12 iFrames, 0% Stamina Cost Penalty.

- Medium Evade (26-50 Encumbrance): 11 iFrames, 25% Stamina Cost Penalty.

- Heavy Evade (51-75 Encumbrance): 10 iFrames, 50% Stamina Cost Penalty.

- Ultra Heavy (76+ Encumbrance): 15 iFrames (Flop), 75% Stamina Cost Penalty.

DEV NOTE: No changes were made to Stamina Cost Penalty. These are original values. Additionally, Heavy Evade and Ultra Heavy Flop have their original iFrame value as well. The only changes regarding iFrames were to the two lighter Weight Classes.

[ Archetypes ]

• Handler Companion and Summoner Minions gain increased health per difficulty. On Apocalypse, they will have the highest base health.

• Increased Challenger's Intimidating Presence Range from 10m to 15m.

Remnant 2 Patch Notes: 08.04.23

Thank you for all the support since we launched Remnant II last week. The response to the game has been amazing to see and we are honored and humbled by you all. Since Launch, we’ve been focusing on improving players’ experiences across the board. We’ve made our initial pass on stability, and performance on all platforms, focused on progression blockers, bugs and addressed some Quality of Life requests from the community. This is the first major update, and we plan to continue to fix issues and add Quality of Life features. Once again, thank you for all the support you have shown us!

 Remnant 2 Patch Notes: 383,678

--Performance and Crashes--

• Initial optimizations to improve overall performance.

• Updates to improve hitching and potential crashes.

• Fixed multiple reported crash bugs.

• High detail shadows have been moved to a separate option and can be enabled in the options on PC.

--Quality of Life--

QOL OVERVIEW: While we still have quite a few things we are working on regarding Traits and long-term grinding (for those that wish to partake), we wanted to make a few changes in this patch to ensure players had more freedom to experiment. Players should find it much easier to Respec and they should also end up with more Scrap overall. We aren't done here by any means, and these are not the larger changes we've mentioned on Discord and Reddit, but in the short term, they should help to ease the burden or reconfiguring your build and experimenting with different options.

• Increased Trait Cap by +5.

• Tome of Knowledge now grants Scrap and EXP when the player has reached Trait Cap.

• Orb of Undoing now has unlimited uses. Players can sell any extras for Scrap.

• Removed the Scrap Cost for converting a Mysterious Item into an Engram (1000 to 0).

• Lowered the Lumenite Cost for converting a Mysterious Item into an Engram (10 to 5).

• Increased the duration of Explorer's Gold Digger Buffs from 15s to 20s.

• Increased the healing amount of Gold Digger Healing Fountain from 1.5 to 2.0 HP per second.

DEV NOTE: We wanted to make sure Explorer could maintain Scavenger longer between fights and give them more freedom while Gold Digger Fountains were active. We increased the durations by 5s each and boosted the Healing Fountain to be more enticing.

Archon Archetype

• Increased Archon Havoc Form Lighting Hands damage from 28 to 56.

• Increased Archon Havoc Form Blink damage from 100 to 150.

• Reduced Archon Havoc Form Cooldown from 120s to 90s.

• Reduced the Subsequent Tether Damage of Enigma Primary Fire from 75% to 65%.

AMD GPU Users(Thanks to Cupcake and Chaoz)

This error is related to outdated/incorrect drivers.

If you are on legacy, use these versions:
-21.4.1 - https://www.amd.com/en/support/kb/release-notes/rn-rad-win-21-4-1
-21.5.2 - https://www.amd.com/en/support/kb/release-notes/rn-rad-win-21-5-2

If you are not legacy, use:

-23.7.1 - https://www.amd.com/en/support/kb/release-notes/rn-rad-win-23-7-1

After installing, you may be told you need to update the drivers, choose “No”.

Nvidia GPU User

Step 1: Make sure your Windows is up-to-date, and you've got the latest drivers installed.

Step 2: If that doesn't do the trick, here's something else you can try (this is for Nvidia, but let us know if you're having this issue with other graphic cards):

• Install the latest Nvidia driver (make sure to tick the "clean install" checkbox)

• Restart your computer after the video driver install

• If needed (give the game a shot first), uninstall the game completely, then reinstall it

Step 3: If none of the above help, some folks have found success by installing the Nvidia Studio Driver instead of the Game Ready Driver.

Step 4: Oddly enough, adding -d3d12 to the command line has solved the issue for some people, even though it's the exact opposite of what the error message suggests.

Supported Hardware and Software

• Officially Supported OS is Windows 10/11 (Latest update 22H2) (Windows Needs to be updated (Direct X12 updates are tied to Windows update, Microsoft doesn't allow standalone installs for updated DX12 libraries)

• Oldest/Lowest Officially Supported AMD GPU is an RX 590 / GTX 1650 for Nvidia (Integrated GPUs Unsupported)

• GPU Drivers Updated (Most important as they also contain stability fixes/feature updates for other games as well)

• DX11 isn't supported (This is an Unreal 5.2 game utilizing shader model 6 so DX12 is mandatory for it to run)

Known Issues that are being looked into further

• Intel 13 series CPU with Nvidia 40xx series cards being unstable (Had issues with these systems also crashing with other Recently Released Unreal Engine 5 Games, looking into fixes)

• Intel Arc Cards displaying Graphical Glitching/Crashing (Intel is aware of this and is working an fix/driver update, sadly we have no date of when this is released)

• Crashing on Startup (A popup window will display, Please submit these crash reports by clicking "Send and Close" These are used by the Devs to identify the errors)

• Future patches are to come to address any further issues

Remnant II: An update on the known PlayStation 5 friend issue for Early Access players

We'd like to share an update regarding the issue some PlayStation 5 Early Access players have encountered with joining their friends’ games.  

Ideally, joining a friend in Multiplayer should be as straightforward as navigating to the World Stone, selecting 'Join Game', and finding your friend's name in the list of available multiplayer worlds. Your friends' games will display their gamer handles and world location, making them easily distinguishable from other public worlds, which only show the world location. Games hosted by friends are prioritized, so if a friend is online and playing, their world should appear in your list. 

However, we acknowledge that some players on PlayStation 5 have reported not being able to see their friends' games within the ‘Join Game’ menu. We want to reassure you that we are well aware of this problem and are working relentlessly to rectify it. 

Please note, to access the co-op multiplayer feature, you must first complete the tutorial in the game.
