Merged with existing bug report.

It seems that not everyone is affected by this bug and as far as I know, it cannot be reproduced by the devs - which makes fixing it difficult, unfortunately.

That's correct, it can't be reproduced, as they say.
I had been in contact with Dennis Borg and sent him specs about my PC so he would be able to inspect the bug but unfortunately he left EW not long time after that.
I would expect from EW to make some kind of compensation, for example give us half of the price we had spent for bugged dogs and close this chapter for good.

I can confirm the bug is exists. Sometimes, when the host already have his dog(mostly happen when the host is starts at a tent), joining players cannot spawn their dogs. Anyway, the happening is total random.

Yesterday a Friend show me the same Problem.
It happens only in MP Mode as Host and as Guest.

His Operating System:

Code: Select all

CPU: AMD FX-8120 Eight-Core Processor
Board: GA-990FXA-D3
RAM: 16 GB DDR3 1333MHz
OS: Win7 64-Bit
Grafic: NV1060 

In SP the Dogs shows up and working.
In MP, the Dog disn't show up and no Dogmenu is avaiable.

We deinstalled his Antivirusprogramm, disabled the Firewall and gave the Ports free in the Router.
Nothing was changed.

Then we tried my Dog if he shows for him. First i got the Retriever and he was able to see him, then i changed the Dog from Retriever to Bloodhound and he saw the Bloodhound AND the Retriever.
Hope it helps to find the Bug.

For me, a dog never works on some exact MP servers, while everything is Ok on other servers. Particularly, dog never works on well known LittleLUFTikus's server (one of those working almost 24x7), that offers BRR map only.

They've tried many times, but so far they've never been able to find what's causing it.

my dog some time's works but most time's it will not.
give it a blood track it runs off then after it has found a few it will run in a around in a circle then stop then just look at me.
this is in sp mode and it has been doing this for months.
