The featured unlimited playlist is the New Arena Unlimited playlist. However there’s already reports of challenges not tracking properly. Surprise surprise.
You should never assume that this is a widespread/known issue and that everyone is having the problem. Only some people might be having the problem and the more people that actually are having an issue that submit tickets then the more likely it is that they’ll be able to figure out exactly why it’s not working and fix that problem ASAP.
Guess I’ll hold onto my EXP boosters till this gets sorted out. So I can try to blitz through the new battle pass asap and can go back to focusing on the game modes I enjoy playing lol.
Also, the Menu’s laggy for anyone else? I’m curious if it’s just me… When I get into matches though they’re fine, it’s just the menu’s lol.
Yes I would highly suggest that and yes the menu seem to be chugging quite hard
It was laggy for me too. When customizing it was real jittery.
The challenge issue seems to be fixed for me now, but performance has definitely been questionable
I watched UberNicks stream while I’m doing some validation for my work.
Seemed like he was definitely starting to get consistent crashes. I’m not sure if it was the specific map, mode, or just general crashes though.
Edit: I’m unsure if UN plays on PC or XBSX when he streams fyi
PC only:

Escalate is fun till you get to the oddball lol. Then it’s a chore to get those last kills lol.
I’m getting around 10 FPS in the customisation menu on a Series X, so they definitely screwed something up real bad.
I also significant frame rate issues on Cliffhanger. The map looks awesome but if I’m set to 60 fps I get noticeable stuttering. If I set it to 120 it’s a fair bit smoother but still dropping at times and there’s obvious drop offs in resolution as well.
That combined with the ‘Underperforming’ deaths debacle, settings resetting for some people and the now traditional ‘challenges not working’ really takes the shine of what should have been a promising season launch. Hope they can sort these things out soon before too many people leave again.
OH good, the final task for getting this weeks participation trophy is just to play 5 matches. Once I can get that done I can just play BTB till I complete the 100 tier list.
I also noticed on cliffhanger every once in a while some objects will get this weird force field type thing around it. I don’t know really how to explain it but it looks really weird.

All the birds on the one map are seemingly broken. They’re trying to fly but are all stuck on the ground.

lol i seen that too. like they were dying or something. weird.
It only happens in escalation slayer from what I’ve seen. I have no idea why it either though. I don’t mind the shield effects around the outside but the smaller ones through the maps seem strange.
At first I thought maybe it had to do with the story or something because of ONI and all but the shield effect randomly appeared and then the gravity of the game totally messed up. Every time I would jump it felt like I was being pushed right back down to the ground and not just like normal like you went down really fast.
So whats the best way to utilize this Shroud Screen?
Using to break line of sight. Sit outside to see enemies go in on one side and jump them when they come out. It’s a good utility if you have low shields and need to get out. You can back up and fire it at your feet as you continue to move. This breaks line of sight and turns off aim assist so players can’t feel you out based off that and bullet magnetism doesn’t engage.

Actually the shroud screen can stick to things. So just stick it to a friend and run around the map so you will never be spotted or stick it on the enemy and cause mass confusion.
