Red Shift Crashes Constantly and other bugs.

leemwatsonleemwatson Member Posts: 5,423 Arc User
1. Red Shift repeatedly crashes on Jupiter Station, when you go to level 3B (I think) right after the dialogue 'I work for the Emporer'.
2. Mirror Defiant can't fire torpedoes even on auto attack
3. Player camera when you're playing the Inquistor is stuck '3ft' above your head and the distance can't be changed.
4. There's no respawn point unlocks on Jupiter Station. It slaps you right back to the beginning of the level if you crash out of the game.

System: XBOX 1X and Series X confirmed.

    As a side note it appears as though, for me at least, all bridge officers in the inventory and the recruitment tab have the "Convert to Manual" option greyed out. This is consistent on every character I have.

  • Same issue as original poster. Crashes shortly after disembarking turbolift at deck 3-B on Jupiter Station.

    I have all but number 4 happen. I ducked out to drop the difficulty down as the loadout is terrible trash garbage.

    Immediately after helping Tilly with the consoles, same as everyone else.

    Sector space is screwy too, the star animations go into overdrive.

    Haven't tried the TFO yet, don't trust the connectivity right now.

    Buggy as everyone has stated. Crashed right after helping Tilly with console mission. I can't even logon with that character now. It crashes every time I try.

    Platform: XB1, Account: Fae Aerith, Character: Marqem
    Crashed in "Red Shift" just after helping Tilly with consoles.
    Now every time I try to log in to my character the loading bar gets to 90% (roughly, there are no numbers displayed) and
    crashes to dashboard after the sound byte goes all feedback-like.
    I keep just retrying to log in, and it keeps happening.
    Should I continue this (like beating my head on a wall) or stop and wait for an update of some kind?

    Same crash as everyone else right at this point now unable to reload character. Hopefully I haven't lost my best character with the most premium content

    The server will reset your toon to where you were about 5 minutes after the crash. Do not attempt to log in on that toon before then.

    Apologies for contesting you in the other topic.

    Can confirm his solution works. It dumps you back in sector space.

  • shadowpheonix787shadowpheonix787 Member Posts: 66 Arc User
    Can confirm exact crash happens during objective to take medical ward. After exiting the lift, you enter the hallway where the conversation happens asking your character why you're here. You can kill the enemies here if you use the aoe abilities to kill around the corner, but do not enter the intersection of this hallway. As long as you dont cross the intersection mesh line, the game does not crash. Hopefully this helps them find out what the bug is.

    I agree im having the same exact problem I hope they fix this issue because if not a few people will miss out on the ship

    I have the same issues, the torpedoes didn't fire. I wrote that off as maybe it didn't have any. But, I have froze at the same spot yesterday and today, right as I unlock the turbolifts and go to the next floor. Start to fight the star fleet officers. I've tried not using powers.

    That's no problem, they can do the TFO or omega hunting. The TFO works fine, no bugs I've seen.

    Another bug to add is for characters newly created during this patch. The melee and shoot gun buttons are reversed. Right trigger is melee and B is shoot gun (which should be the other way around). I can't make threads right now due to being new but this thread best matches the issues. Red shift is bugged to heck and new characters have reversed controls in ground combat only.

    same as original post .. red shift is bugged for me

    One more person adding that Redshirt is bugged right after I come out of turbulent 3-B. Now I can't start STO with that character.

    Yes you can start STO with that character. You need to not log-in for 5 minutes and the server will automatically reset your toon to where you were before you started the mission.

    I have the issue on my character on again the deck with the turbolift. Are they at least working on a fix? This mission is unplayable.

    I as well have played Red Shift on both my Xbox Series S and X and have had the game freeze, then crash out every time after exiting the turbo lift. doesn't matter if you kill the enemy or not but as soon as you try to proceed around that first corner to the right the game seizes up. I also concur that the mirror Defiant only fires phaser based weaponry, no torpedoes. The camera view distance is solidly set at up close and personal behind the Inquisitor character and the menu cannot change the view. I have gotten pretty good at playing through the entire level of Red Shift since there are no save points if your game crashes in the mission, only respawn points if you die during the mission. Xbox has no in game Bug report mode and I wonder if that should be remedied?

    Well I’m glad I’m not the only one having the same problem on Red Shift. I keep getting kicked out of the game after the transporter control room and sometimes getting off the turbo lift after that.

    Here is where you should be reporting it.

    Yes they are. Fingers crossed, it's resolved and patched Tuesday.

  • metallic25thmetallic25th Member Posts: 1 New User
    :/ can confirm the above, also notice for new character that the B and R2 button a reversed during ground combat meaning I'm trying to melee vs the basic attack of my slotted weapon.
  • shadowpheonix787shadowpheonix787 Member Posts: 66 Arc User
    Further testing with exact crash point has shown that the crash happens when the game attempts to render what or who ever is in the medical ward. As long as the camera is kept facing away from the ward itself, you can progress almost through the whole objective.

    I got all the way to the door with all enemies defeated by turning the camera the "wrong" direction. As soon as you turn towards the ward door though, the game crashes to dashboard again. Hope this helps them find the issue faster.

    Pretty much the same as noted by all here, I would have expected an emergency patch the day after release as I believe no one is completing Red Shift on the Xbox One. As soon as the Inquisitor answers 'I work for the Emperor' a sound glitch, then crash and subsequent immediate login crashes or as follows. Subsequent login with the same character on xBox One I have experienced the following with multiple characters: 1. crashes, 2. starts the ground portion with Marshall Janeway in the storage room, or 3. places the character at the mission beginning talking to Janeway on Voyager in the transporter room prior to the flashback, then Janeway disappears and Killy appears stuck in the ceiling of the transporter. If Killy (Tilly) frees herself she will join you in the Turbolift, but there in no way to continue the mission to get to medical.
