The new slasher hit Friday the 13th: The Game has issues with the Xbox One version. It’s lagging behind. Some are excitedly shouting: Why are we still playing the beta version? 75,000 players at the same time are causing login problems on all platforms.
Xbox One still with beta client? No, but the day-one patch is missing
Excitement around the new slasher hit. In a thread on the game’s forum there are even accusations that Friday the 13th is still running on Xbox One with a “beta client” while PS4 and PC have significantly more advanced versions of the game.
This is causing excitement. Players on the Xbox One feel set back. What happened?
Well, it looks like the Xbox One is missing the “day one patch” – the team behind Friday the 13th is working with Microsoft to deliver this patch. This is expected to happen on Tuesday or mid-week. The information comes from an administrator in the excitement thread.
Most problems currently seem to be caused by the servers. The developers probably didn’t anticipate such a surge.
This doesn’t really reassure Xbox One players, who want to know: Why does our game look worse than on PS4 right now?
Matchmaking problems
In a Facebook post, the developers address the current focal point “matchmaking.” Many players seem to have trouble finding matches when they search for one.
For the Xbox One, the developers explain that they are working with Microsoft on a patch for the Xbox One. It is expected to arrive mid-week.
There are also changes to matchmaking for the PS4, with a patch expected to arrive soon.
Database error is due to player surge
Overall, the developers are still struggling with the surge. There were 75,000 players online at the same time. This hit the database hard. And this has led to login problems with Friday the 13th: The Game. There are also issues with missing XP related to the database difficulties.
