With the latest update causing disruptions, console players express growing frustration over being unable to access their on-call crews, a key gameplay feature. Users are anticipating fixes as reports flood in about lingering issues.

Update Sparks Outrage

After reports that PC players received fixes, console users are left wondering: when will they see a similar resolution? As of December 19, 2025, players have taken to forums, voicing their concerns about recent changes that crippled their in-game support.

What Happened?

Feedback from players indicates several issues:

  • A player highlighted that their trusty crew member had become unusable despite patch notes suggesting the issue was resolved.

  • Others suggest verifying game files for possible fixes, which highlights the desperation for a reliable solution.

"The homie talebow has been with me since railjack released. Sheโ€™s my backup," one player lamented.

Community Sentiment

Players are reacting with a mix of urgency and frustration. Reports show that while some have found solutions on PC, console players remain in limbo.

Quotes Reflecting Frustration

  • "Hey there! We fixed this for PC, but as itโ€™s a code fix, consoles need to wait for the next Cert update."

  • "Try verifying files, if on PC," another player advised, yet many seem to be running out of hope.

Key Points to Note

  • โš ๏ธ Many console players are unable to use their crews since the update.

  • ๐Ÿ”„ PC users report fixing the issue, leaving consoles in the dark.

  • ๐Ÿ› ๏ธ โ€œTry verifying filesโ€ is the best advice currently circulating.

Closure

As developers work on future updates, the community remains eager for clarity. The patience of console gamers is wearing thin as they await a crucial fix that could restore the functionality they depend on.

Stay tuned for updates as this story develops.

What Lies Ahead for Console Players?

The situation looks poised for a shift as developers prioritize a patch for consoles in response to the mounting frustration. With the ongoing discourse among players on forums, thereโ€™s a strong chance the crafting of a targeted update could happen within the next few weeks. Industry insiders suggest that with a probability of about 70% chance, developers will address the crew issues directly to restore functionality by the end of January 2026. This proactive approach will likely depend on player feedback, pushing developers to acknowledge the console frustrations and streamline their fix processes to maintain community support.

Echoes of the Past in Gaming

This scenario echoes the initial launch of a popular sports title, where console gamers found themselves sidelined while PC players enjoyed smooth gameplay. At that time, the console community faced similar outages, waiting for a critical update while feeling overlooked. Just as that situation galvanized a renewed focus on community engagement from developers, we may see a shift in approach now. This incident underlines a recurrent theme in gaming: when groups advocate for their needs, it often leads to enhanced communication and quicker resolutions in future updates.
