All Patch Notes For September 12 Patch In The Texas Chainsaw Massacre

Below, you’ll find all of the updates coming to TCSM when the patch releases in the early morning hours of September 12, 2023:

Issues Fixed

  • Fixed: Victims Trapped Collision Issue
    • Resolved an issue where Victims who are trapped then lose collision/control when trying to use a gap afterward.
    • This issue is not the ONLY issue related to Hitchhiker traps and Victims.
    • To provide additional info on additional issues with Hitchhiker traps and Victims, please use THIS THREAD.
  • Fixed: Perking Up Achievement
    • We fixed an issue with the Perking Up achievement causing it to not unlock.
    • Carry on Achievement Hunters
  • Fixed: Continue on Lobby End Screen
    • This issue was causing all active players to wait the full timer when choosing to continue to the next match, due to disconnected players.
    • This will help speed up the process of matchmaking into the next match for active players.
  • Fixed: Continue Missing from Custom Game End Screen
    • We resolved an issue where the continue option was missing from the end screen of custom games.

Things Changed

  • Changed: Battery Match Start State
    • The car battery will now start out on and be powered up by default.
    • This will help Family players get to the tasks at hand to set up for the match faster.
  • Changed: Respec in Lobby Option
    • We have removed the option to respec characters in match lobbies.
    • You can still edit the character loadouts and spend any unused skill points.
    • Respec will have to be done via the main menu now.

Tuned Features

  • Tuned: Bone Scrap Limits
    • Bone Scrap piles are now limited to 3 uses per pile.
    • This is just one step in terms of balancing the scrap usage and frequency.
  • Tuned: Cook Lock Usage XP Farm
    • We have set a limiter to the amount of XP that can be earned from placing and removing locks repeatedly.
    • You will still receive the XP bonus for placing each of the three locks once.
  • Tuned: Lobby Timer Set to 3 Minutes
    • We added to the lobby timer in the last patch to give more time to fill lobbies.
    • The community generally disliked this change, and we have therefore reverted it back to the standard 3 minutes.
  • Tuned: Further Anti Cheat Tuning and Improvements
    • We have continued our work on anti cheat and are one step closer to reintegrating PC into cross play, though we are not there just yet.
    • Players encountering usage of cheats and/or hacks in public PC lobbies, please continue to report them via support.

While PC players may not be able to join up with the PlayStation and Xbox counterparts just yet, progress is being made and players will be excited to partake in some crossplay shenanigans once it goes live again.
