Bug STILL very poor audio quality on the PS4 version after almost 2.5 years

[starck]

Were going to address the Sound issue in the next update.

So, it has been over 2 months since this comment. We have paid for this game, it has been sitting with audio quality problems for years now. The tables still have bugs and graphical issues too. There is no word of when any of these bugs, or the audio quality, will be fixed on the PS4 version.

Honestly, this is no way to treat customers or to release games. This company treats its customers horribly, I seriously hope people think twice when supporting them in the future. No doubt they are devoting most of their time working on the Stern app. Farsights logic seems to be more like...why do something right the first time around when you can half-ass it, pump out more **** as fast as possible, get revenue. Very short sighted business plan that I guarantee will bite this company HARD in the ass unless they change their attitude very quickly.

It needed to be said.

You guys treat your customers like they are disposable.

And PC. On which there is the less number of players btw.

I seriously hope people think twice when supporting them in the future.

That's already the case for me... since the beginning of Season 4.

On the other hand, playing on PS3, one of the less supported and polished version, helps a lot to be suspicious about FS policy.

....So is it safe to assume that support for the PS4 version is dead at this point....?
Looks like they don't give a fcuk

Yeah, what do they care if we are left waiting around for tables, they have my PS3/PS4 season pass money already.

They should drop last gen systems if consoles are such a PITA for them. Make season five the last season for PS3/Vita. Be done with that mongoloid Cell processor in the PS3, and dump the (mostly dead) Vita because it's little more than a cross-buy money suck anyway. That would free up some resources for them to finally fix up the PS4 version and then get it closer to a normal release schedule. PS4 isn't much more than a canned PC, it should be much easier to program for than the PS3 ever was.
I wouldn't be all that thrilled about them ending support on PS3/Vita (I own all of TPA for PS3/PS4/Vita) and only continuing with the PS4, but at least I would understand why they would do it and would be sort of unhappily OK with it. You know what I mean?

We are currently working on the PlayStation Update.

 

[starck]

so when can ps4 customers expect a patch for the numerous bugs?
We've literally been waiting years now for multiple issues to be addressed.
I think I might nickname this game "Payday 2: pinball arcade edition."

It's a harsh nickname, but deserved at this point.

When is next update? We are waiting and waiting....

I really do hope they finally fix Cirqus Voltaire along with the audio. It's always sad when you see how polished the PC version looks in comparison.

A Menagerie ball that changes color with the Neon tube when you start every game.
Non Crackling Audio
No transparent squares on the playfield
No Ghostballs in the plunger area.

The differences are striking. The PS4 version used to look like this before the first patch.

But now it just looks like crap. While every other version looks good.

Since the update is coming soon, it would be really nice if Flippy could tell us if the sound issue will be fixed, as well as any other fixes like the Gorgar pop bumpers, the F-14 250,000 flight bonus goal, and the phantom ball in the plunger bug.

I'm not too sure about the other platforms but on PS4 the F-14 wizard goal was fixed after the release of the five tables.

This is great news. I just wish someone would have confirmed this sooner. Now, I'll have to wait until I am done with the game I am currently playing before I go for it.

Is there any news on the PS4 bug fix update?

I'll take that as a no. Hmm...
Seems like less and less people posting on these forums lately.

We're playing the waiting game.

Good news here in the last pages.

It's being worked on, from what i've seen the tables are in but a few issues are being addressed that have to be resolved before the content is submitted and released.

Currently we are going through the submission process. I did confirm there was a big improvement with the sound in this update.

Awesome, thanks!

So, beyond getting a few more tables, we should see not only the sound fixes, but maybe clearing up those ghost balls that appear around some tables?

Correct.
