The servers of Outriders having dropped regularly since the game’s release on PC, PS4, PS5, Xbox One, Xbox Series X / S, Google Stadia and Xbox Game Pass this week. At this time, it is not known when the game will improve in this regard, but what is at stake is the elimination of one of the biggest features of the game. If you’re wondering why crossover gaming isn’t available, it’s because People Can Fly and Square Enix had to partially remove the game option due to a seemingly unforeseen issue.
At the time of posting, the cross game is available in all features. Console players can play with console players and Steam players can play with Epic Games Store players, but that’s it. In other words, what you can’t do is connect console players to PC players and vice versa
According to People Can Fly, the roof of the problem is a timing problem that results in a backend mismatch, which in turn causes players to be kicked out of sessions. What is causing this problem, People Can Fly does not disclose, but notes that it addresses the issue “with the highest priority” and that it is working in patches to remedy oversight. In other words, the removal has nothing to do with the ongoing server issues and should be addressed during future updates.
“We’ve discovered a mismatch between the PC code and the console,” People Can Fly writes about the problem. “This translates into a backend mismatch that causes players to be kicked out of a multiplayer game that includes consoles and PC players. We are addressing this issue with the highest priority and are working on patches that will sync all platform code. solve these problems. “
