Sorry for the delay in responding to some of these comments. As a reminder - if you have an issue you wish to report, please create a new report (by submitting a new topic) in the Console Bug Reports section and I will get to it asap.
@Haleyy93 - I have a report submitted on this issue regarding shark spawning already for the team, but will add a note for them that it is still occurring for users. The customisation you mentioned would likely be considered a feature, but I’ll pass the feedback on to the team regardless.
@Lesker1978 - I see Lothaer already replied to you, but for extra clarification: The console version did not get an update when this announcement was made. It is awaiting an update that the team is currently working on. As per Sam’s comment above, the ETA is not yet determined but they want to get it out asap. I will let the community know as soon as I receive word about a release date (unless one of the other Beam Team accounts posts it first).
@Shturman889 - I will pass your messages onto the dev team as requested.
@420gamer36 I found a workaround for the spyglass but it’s kind of confusing. So once you equip the spyglass and long press “R2” it gives you the spyglass vision. Do NOT press “R2” again to remove it. Instead, keep it active on your face and tap “R1” to go into your inventory and equip your barehand TWICE. The spyglass vision will disappear but it will look like you dropped the spyglass because when you look at the ground it will say “Spyglass press square to pick up” but It doesn’t show the actual spyglass. Just go back into your inventory and click on the spy glass (do not press “R2”) and it will “pick it up” off the ground (Even though you don’t actually see it on the ground just a prompt to pick it up). From there you can go back into your inventory and pick whatever other tool or item you want to use.
Hi Suthsa1, welcome to the forums. Thank you so much for sharing this workaround. I’m going to add this to the known issues post so other users might get a chance to see and try this too
Personally wondering about the state of console which is no where near what PC IS. console players have still yet to hear anything from Beam Team about what is coming down the pipeline for them other than piles. I seriously hope that’s not all planned for console. You guys stated “better communication” but I’m not seeing that in regards to console. The community needs some communication from you guys. And the console players still playing need better. Hell they deserve a lot better.
Hello, yep agree. We are waiting since january for bugfix or info about the date. Would be better if they change it back to previous patch than wait another 7 months.
Players have reported crashing when saving recently, and some have also sent their save files for the team to look at and use for testing. As far as I am aware the crashing when saving issue is one of the teams top priorities at the moment, but I do not yet have update on progress specific to that issue. Should I hear anything, I will let the community know asap.
The release date for the next update has not been released yet, nor have the team annouced what it will contain beyond the fix for the spyglass issue and potentially the fix for the spoiled food in crate issue. The latest info from the team can be found here: [Console] Message from the Team, 2022-08-30 and I will hopefully have another update on progress from the dev team soon.
So if the team say the last remaining feature to be brought to consoles are the piles, which have now been added, I guess we’re not getting the ability to craft the wooden containers? Thanks guys, awesome
