ALT Hi Cleaners! We've been heads-down working to get a server patch ready for you once our internal teams saw incidents of Trauma damage being applied incorrectly to players across difficulties. This was further supported by player reports and feedback we read across the interwebs. We appreciate your patience through the investigation process and fix implementation. We've applied the server patch and no game update is needed to experience this. We're still investigating other issues that you have reported and we'll have more news on that soon. Once again, thank you for your patience! Keep up the reports and feedback! Submit feedback: go.wbgames.com/B4BHelp Bug report site: bugs.back4blood.com - TRS Development Team
ALT We have been reading through the responses for our recent update and want to thank you for your patience in regards to the Specials spawning issue. Our last patch intended to be the fix for this, but there was more to this than we thought. At the time of our tweet, we believed the fix for Specials frequently duplicating their spawn cards fully addressed the increased difficulty. It was a mistake on our part claiming on social media the issue was fully resolved and we apologize for that. Our spawning system is one of the most complex areas of the game, so fixes here inherently carry a lot of risk. We want to be really careful with new fixes we create for it. This also means we’re going to continue pushing out fixes to the Spawning system such as adjusting spawn rates. -TRS Development Team

We are actively working on this and should have it resolved soon. We appreciate your patience as we work to improve your experience in our Open Beta.

ALT Within the past week we pushed out two server patches intended to address issues with Special spawning and trauma damage. Please note: if you are playing offline in Training, you will still encounter these issues as the fix was only applied to our servers. The fix will be applied to offline play in our next downloadable patch. These issues are still being investigated, but below are the server-side adjustments we have made so far: 11/16 Decreased unintentional repetition of Special spawners. Before, if there were Specials alive when you started a Horde and finished it, there was a high chance they could spawn again unintentionally. This should no longer be the case. 11/16 Increased separation of the ‘wandering’ Special spawners so they’re less likely to stack. This means non-alerted Specials are less likely to spawn close to where other Specials first spawned should they do their thing and wander away. Note: wandering Specials are those that wander away from their spawn point.
ALT 11/16 Increased the average time required for roaming Reekers and Stingers to spawn to better address the onslaught of Specials. 11/16 Decreased the chance of wandering Specials spawning in Veteran and Nightmare difficulties. 11/17 We have reverted trauma damage to the old behavior where 1 temp health would fully block all trauma damage. Though this is not the intended behavior the adjustment that was made drastically increased the difficulty. We are currently evaluating and making more adjustments to trauma damage to function as originally intended. We have additional changes included in the next downloadable patch to further address the issues with unintended increased difficulty as well as other pieces of feedback weve read from the community We will continue to monitor data and constructive feedback to implement additional changes that would improve player experience and address unfair game difficulty We appreciate everyones patience as we work on bettering the game with all of you
