We know that this will not fix every bug that players may experience in the game and we are working hard to fix these issues as fast as possible.
For Xbox One players, we are working very hard to get a patch out as quickly as possible and will update with specific patch notes when that patch goes live.
We will continue to work to fix issues and errors that plays may experience in the game and would like to once again thank you for your patience while we work through this.
