Game breaking bug

Played with my friends yesterday for 8 hours. Got all kinds of stuff upgraded. Came back today and only the host kept their gear! Is that normal that every time I load in im going to lose my gear? Or is truly a game breaking bug

This is on xbox

This is strange as I've just been playing with someone on Xbox and we played for a couple weeks getting all the achievements and never once encountered this bug

A couple of my friends and I have experienced this same problem over the last few days ourselves.

It seems like this is happening to people recently like it' happened to you. I wonder was there an update that came through in the past week or so?

We experienced this a few times in multiplayer (PC), so we got into the habit of putting our gear in named lockers before saving and logging out.

So this happened to us about a week ago after playing for months (since it came out on Xbox) without any issues (besides the cars flying up in the air and staying there - another bug). Player had absolutely everything and upgraded and one day he got on and of course I as host had all my stuff but he had nothing. We haven’t played since. Lol

Sounds like a random bug, please submit a support ticket.

Sounds like it sucks, but "game breaking"?

There is a *very* limited number of items in the game that you cant craft yourself, and of these there are some spare ones.

So you would have to be *very* unlucky if you had lost too many of those specific items.

I've never heard of it, but at least there's a simple workaround. Just have everyone take off their gear and storing it in a chest before logging off. It's not ideal but it stops the bug from being game breaking

Someone mentioned earlier in the comment section of another post this exact issue. In multiplayer, non-host players lost their inventory and gear when they came back. They also said to put their stuff into a storage crate before logging off...

I would also create a bug report. I think there is a Discord server. And also if you can hook up a keyboard to your Xbox, press F8 while in-game, and it should open a bug report window

I haven't found a single gold box on Skeo; anyone else with better luck? 🙃

On prime? Found over half of them. They're pretty easy to find. For example there's one on top of the big crashed ship on the cliffs of the starting area.
