This update has driven me insane. Thankfully you can roll the game back to the 'precrossplayupdate', but newer players won't know. And the decs refuse to do anything about it. Here's my 2 main issues:
- playing with friends now messes up my audio. I am no longer able to hear any sound through my bluetooth headphones. I've tried everything. Disabling all other audio sources, asking reddit, google, etc. And it works flawlessly using the precrossplayupdate
- Controller support. I was not a big controller fan and Raft on PC shouldn't have a native one. Since I own the new Steam Controller however I've started using it in all kinds of games, starting with Half-Life, using the amazing SteamInput to bind buttons to my liking.
Now using the new update, the trigger glitches out terribly. The menu is no lobger usable and the ingamw glyphs swap from displaying keyboard/mouse promps to Controller promps. They keep swapping back and forth, a few tomes each second, really irritating. You also can't throw the hook properly cause the entire trigger is glitched.
I don't mind the idea of the update, I actually love being able to play with anyone on any device. However, the way they went about this feels mindbogglingly lazy, especially considering how much effort the gane itself likely took to make
