Multiplayer dog bug fixed?

Post by XxStrong1xX »

I am wondering if the Jeep update accidentally fixed the long time guest unable to use dogs on most MP maps bug? 2 games tonight Lazy was able to use her dog with me hosting and that has almost never happened before. I'm sure it was unintentional but it would be great if this was finally fixed.

That would be great, but rise another trouble, the Jeep can take 2 people, but only one dog in the back, guest dog will have to run along the car :D... unless it can take 2 dogs and i was in a mistake.

In the Live Stream they said that both dogs will fit in the Jeep, but one of them will be invisible while driving.

We did add something yesterday that we hope will resolve this issue, so it would be great to hear some more feedback from everyone. It is such a hard bug as we can not reproduce it at all, so we had to have a look at the code and take a guess at the fix, from this perspective, this is why we would love some more feedback! We didn't add it into the patch notes from yesterday, because it was not a sure fix.

Thanks for the info Mat.! I know a lot of players really want this fixed. Lazy and I will keep testing it and let you know how it goes.

Oh man, that's awesome news if it's true. I'll have to get my friend on and test this out soon. It has always worked for us some of the time where both of us could have our dogs but I'd say about 25-50% of all our multiplayer hunts, the non-host player couldn't spawn their dog in. My friend was just about to get a pointer too so it'll make rabbit hunts a blast if we know we can run both of our dogs together.

So far every game i host Lazy has been able to use her dog, so looks like it is definitely fixed. At least for us. :)

It works for me, a dog finally appears in every game. Let's hope you keep it that way. Well done.

Just an update, the past couple of weeks maybe one out of every 5 games or so the guest's dog is not appearing in MP still. It works most of the time but not sure what is keeping it from being 100%.

Anyone else have the issue of the retriver causing the game to xcrash when it's doing a fetch command?
