Thanks for letting us know @wolkenwand. If you can shoot an email to support@hinterlandgames.com they can take a look at what's going on and hopefully that'll help them address if for you and others.

I'm not sure if anyone else has experienced anything like this on PS4. But I haven't heard any of the new music yet in survival mode. There's a bad framerate glitch/issue with passing time/sleeping outside. And I've been seeing some really off animations of the rifle reload, cattails and things floating. I know this is probably for technical discussion. But there are so many threads. I get overwhelmed with where to go, sometimes

[Riotintheair]

Floating things in games from prevy patches are often caused by terrain modifications. Sticks, branches, camp fires, cattail heads, rocks, etc. that have already been spawned in old saves will float if the terrain under them has been lowered (they can also end up buried and you can lose items). It's always been something that happens to games that last through a patch.

The sound distortion/choppyness in time acceleration is sometimes annoying. Not sure what causes it, as it usually goes away and it's pretty inconsistent when it happens vs. when it doesn't.

I'm pretty sure I've heard new tracks, but will note it for sure next time I do.

That's an awesome and infromative post! So to fix this then, is there something I can do on my end? For example, would an uninstall/re-install help at all? I've tried a few saves and they all expereience this.
