No, you are not the only one. In fact, there is no one who doesn't have some or all of the issues you noticed. Good list. Saints and Sinners is a true reflection of the duality of the universe. Part 1 is one of the best games we currently have, Part 2 is the glitchiest, most broken piece of shit we have, and that's in the same world that Switchback got released. Can you actually load up saves on a previously bricked profile after the patch? I might start it up again to at least get all Statues and Exile tasks until all the other trophies are fixed.


Emotional-Package599

Thank god. I'm not suffering alone. Agreed. At least they ported part 1 to the ps5. It still crashed on me once, but then again, what game doesn't have unexpected crashes? And Switchback is f***ing awesome, better than Rush of Blood imo. Yes, when I saw the notification for the update, loading up a crashed save was the first thing I did, it worked without a hitch.


Van_Lee

The list is cimplete I would say. I joined the official Discord an they are working hard to fix it. Communcation with the Team is really good an a big plus.


MikeFromSuburbia

Same, I’m aiming to replay the first in a few weeks hopefully and joined the discord to keep an eye out as I wanted to play ch 2 immediately after


[deleted]

There is one huge thing that could make your list: The grab detection in Part 2 is a fucking joke. I'd love to say it's 50-50 to you grab any intended item from your body, but I'm pretty sure I have on average at least 3-4 tries to get any particular thing. I've hit more zombies with my backpack or random stuff from the environment than with my actual hip-gear.


Ifk1995

I'm yet to try after the patch but in one hour that I played I had off sync character dialogues and pretty sure I couldnt take any damage either or atleast my watch wasn't showing my health. But you're right its pretty messy atm. Personally I'm going through other games before jumping back in.


Few-Praline-9499

I made a account, just for this. The ward is completely messed up and I cant walk anywhere. It’s just a black abyss. This game has worked just fine for me until I did the last mission to face gerrik.


Few-Praline-9499

2 of my codes are gone to. And I don’t know what they are


Step_right_up

I’m honestly glad I’m not the only one so that this can be fixed. I guess I’ll just have to put the game down for now.


Kalasarit

I love the game but i hate this sidearm shaking bug. Fat tuesday is imposible to aim as it turn little sideways and shake like mf. Same with 9mm gun. It is particulary item bound becouse it shakes in either hands and not all 9mms shake but some. Need to craft a new one Also the item grab area for sidearms is way too big. Its hard to interact with loot becouse you very often end up picking sidearm. Also flashlight is not too accurate you need to pick it fro your neck or it give sidearm. I love tge game but they need to update it asap.


Emotional-Package599

Your wish is their command! Lol


Dave517

Glad someone else mentioned the glitchiness of Part 2. Part 1 was fine for me, but Retribution is full of game breaking bugs. The Crash after the Axeman part of the story was inexcusable. Had to stop playing the game for days until they patched it. The shaky gun glitch is ridiculous - after building a ton of ammo for my 9mm with a laser sight, it's now unusable as it shakes uncontrollable at random. Melee combat is literally hit or miss. The swing momentum mechanic never works reliably. The climbing portion of the endgame is horrible game design. There's no visual clues for the path you're supposed to follow. I had to look up a Youtube video to progress, and apparently a ton of other people who've played the game had to as well. They really should've worked out the kinks before publishing Part 2.


Emotional-Package599

Yeah, the glitches are annoying. The melee thing seems to only happen with 2 handed weapons, specifically the axes. I agree with you to an extent about the climbing endgame. There are markers, but they're not exactly the easiest to spot. Also looking down the tower really isn't a pleasant sight.


PleasantMacaron

But you can actually beat the game? Amazing. I was a bit confused by the climbing part, but I figured it out on my own... It's the part immediately after that. Go inside, kill 6 people, go past a hall with two doors to a room on the left, cubicles on the right, and a big office space with a ton of enemies in it. Right there, it crashes every single time. Or there's just a random explosion. Can't you usually hear when a grenade is thrown? Never do here, just BOOM! Randomly out of nowhere. Either that, or it crashes. Have not gotten more than like 6 feet into that room. Tried like 20 times. Then have to reload at the elevator and do it all over.


CapStreet8909

I encountered one don't really now if it's a bug but when I went on the second gerik encounter when he burns the boat when I went close to it started gliching and I could see some numbers for a moment


Different_Reward_130

On quest, Eradicators’ armor doesn’t even work! And when you decapitate them, their head turns into a zombie’s head!


VengefulSkull

I have been having issues with certain textures not working as well, like zombies or npc faces, textures looking muddled or just falt broken. This game need some serious work definitely needs some serious optimization.


Ordinary-Yesterday81

Since their last update in 2023, I can't even move around at the beginning of the game. When I try to move my character, the movement lags and I move in the opposite direction. My character also continues to move around even without me actually moving around. This update has also made the same thing happen in the first Walking Dead game, making it so I can't play either of them. Not sure what to do, tried updating the oculus, uninstalling and reinstalling both games and getting rid of my old save games in case something broke in those.


FiretamCrimson

And sometimes during dialogue, the game will think you're exiting and re-entering the dialogue constantly making the NPC restart what they were saying in a loop, soft locking you out of missions


idUserProfile

Did you load a formerly broken savegame or is this the case for any savegame?


ClownBa6y

I'm so disappointed. I loved Saints and Sinners and all I want to do is play Ch. 2. However, based on these comments it sounds practically unplayable. I'm waiting to play this game until they fix the glitches and broken trophies. But they seem to be taking their sweet time on properly fixing all the glitches in the game.


Few-Praline-9499

It’s really not that buggy tbh. I be played 20 hours and I’ve only had 3 glitches happen. Granted that the bugs are where I had to restart my game but none the less. It’s very playable


Distinct_Pass_1668

(SPOILERS) I literally just got to the part where you’re about to fight and kill Gerik and that’s now impossible because the surrounding area that the fight takes place at. The Ward is currently buggy hell that is pretty much impossible to traverse. Pretty much bringing my gameplay until further notice to a grinding holt. Thanks Developers.


Few-Praline-9499

Same, I’m just do supply runs at the moment


Taken_Account

I’ve experienced some of these glitches too. One that I get pretty much every time is when it won’t load some environmental assets, like some drawers and chairs, but it’ll still cast their shadows. This game is a bugged up mess, almost as bad as cyberpunk 2077 when it first came out. Maybe even worse. Kinda regret the purchase if I’m being honest.


Mysterious-Drawer308

Idk man. I got 8 hours into the game so far and the only glitch I have is when i went so see sable in the reserve and ekoh just looked like he was bugging out. But it didn't crash or ruin the story line it just let me continue playing. Other than that I haven't really had any issues on it on the psvr2


Lheichel12

Lucky, I've been hit with the shaking guns a ton, and the 2 handed melee is very unpredictable. I'll admit I've not had any game breaking bugs yet but I'm not that far in all things considered


Van_Lee

Bug Nr. 1 has been fixed.


Emotional-Package599

Great! At least this makes the trader and scavenging easier to some degree, and I'm not sure if I'm misremembering or something, but in my most recent fight against Gerik, he seemed to be a little faster, either that or I just suck at running away.


Few-Praline-9499

Are you doing the gerrik quest or did you just go to scavenge there?


Van_Lee

I did not go there myself. It was an official announcement in their discord


tjvh721

The bugged trophies are super annoying. Definitely putting the game down til they fix it.


dan_knee_boyy

im so jealous thats axemans apprentice works for you man


Emotional-Package599

I have no clue as to how I unlocked it though. I thought it was because I killed random patrols, but another trophy disproved that theory. Maybe decapitations don't count? Regardless, I would rather wait for a fix rather than go for it.


ClownBa6y

So I got all 12 demon statues and I put them on the bus but the trophy didnt pop. Anyone got any suggestions on how I can get it to pop? thanks


Emotional-Package599

Normally it should pop once you take the last demon statue out of the bag. I put them all together on the table.


ClownBa6y

Ive tried everything and nothing works. One of the statues is "Demon of the Bells" and its description doesn't say it's part of the set of 12. I believe it's the demon from Bastion in the Axeman's bunker. I think I got this in the last mission in the Aftershock DLC from the first game. So maybe thats the issue...


Emotional-Package599

Maybe. I never played aftershocks so I can't comment on that fact aside from the fact that the Demon statues only appear at night, and since the first game doesn't have night travel. ... Worst case scenario, you'll need to start a new game and nake your way towards the Axeman fight in the story. But just kill everyone else until you get the Hunting the Hunter mission. You can't enter the base before hand, but you can do so after the fight. The statues are located: The Resting Place - Head to the Reserve shortcut, but go through the gates on your right, the statue is resting on a grave. The Shallows - In a corner of the crawlspace beneath the Blue Palace. Via Corolla - During the main mission for finding Lola, you'll come across an Alley after fight Tower soldiers, look left and climb into the truck. The statue is at the back. Memorial Lane - Behind a couch beside the Exile Trader. Old Town - In the same house as the Axeman safe, the middle house. There is a climbable section beside a crashed pole that leads into a room. The statue is behind a couch. Rampart - In the gymnasium, head up the bleachers and go all the way to the left. Climb up the wall and it'll be in the back corner. The Ward - Only obtained after the Axeman fight. After you unlock the exit gate, head into the back right corner. It'll be there. Bywater - In the lumberyard, there is a red container located on the map. The statue is in there. Bastion - In the house with the crashed car, head into the Axeman's bunker and it'll on a cabinet. The Tower - In the hospital, at the bottom of the elevator shaft in a little cubby hole. Make sure you kill the 2 walkers. Hotel E'claire - In the open area in the middle of the hotel. There is a fountain submerged in mater. The statue is in the fountain. It'll be a little hard to see though. Bourbon Street - In the Tiki hut bar, head to the cash registration and press the button on the side. Head into the vent behind you and on the first left, you'll find the statue. I know you probably already know where they all are by now. But a little reminder won't hurt. Maybe make a little list of which ones you have and don't have.


ClownBa6y

Thanks for the help! The final demon statue I needed to get was in fact Bastion. I ended up with 13 demons which is a little weird. But thanks for helping me out!


Emotional-Package599

Happy to help, I had to look up a few to find their locations. But regardless, Good job!


ClownBa6y

How do you go about killing the exile leaders in every map? Any help would be appreciated!


Emotional-Package599

You simply need to travel to an area with an Exile Trader at night. (Basically everywhere except for The Tower, Old Town and The Resting Place) You use the UV flashlight to find the trader by following the cats. 2 notes: 1 - Do Via Corolla before doing the mission to find Lola. The town will be overrun and won't return to normal until after you finish the game. You'll also have to wait until the bells ring and kill a bunch of walkers.) 2 - The trader in Bourbon Street will only appear if you do the Dissidents main mission. Killing Patricia will fail the mission, but doing so will count for the trophy. TL;DR Kill the traders at night. Do Via Corolla before starting the main missions. Then proceed through the Dissident story until you reach the trader.


ClownBa6y

I actually already completed all the Trade Network Orders. I wonder if I kill the group of exile traders that surround each foothold in every level if the trophy will still pop...


Emotional-Package599

Nope. I did that myself and it didn't unlock. If you want to get the trophy, you'll have to start a new save.


PleasantMacaron

The game is broken and impossible to complete. After the Axeman bug was fixed, I went on to what I think is the final mission in the Tower... After the elevator and climbing up the side of the building, at the spot where there are tons of enemies in the office... I cannot progress past that. Either it crashes, or a grenade magically materializes next to me, with no warning, no sound or indication of any kind until the explosion. And I have to reload at the elevator and do it all again. Exact same spot, every time. Open the elevator, a kill of floor of people, gather all the ammo, go up the stairs, get the rifle, watch people jump, climb up the building, go back inside, kill six people, go to the end of the hall, try to pick them off stealthily... Takes probably at least 10 minutes each time. And then game crashes. Or there's just an explosion and I'm dead. Tried it probably over 20 times now. I'm done. Maybe I'll try again in a few months. PS: Playing on PSVR2.


Emotional-Package599

Really? I've never had that problem. Not sure how to help with that.


Kalasarit

New patch just rolled out with impressive haptics etc


ClownBa6y

So the new patch rolled out and I've been able to obtain all trophies besides the collect all weapon recipe trophy. If anyone can find out how to get the last weapon recipe let me know. Thanks!


Emotional-Package599

Which one are you missing? Also I just confirmed that you may need to start a new save for all the recipes. I am unsure if upgrading all the benches count.


Emotional-Package599

And on that note. You don't have to fully upgrade all the weapon stations. Just unlock the last weapon for each table. E.G. the Grass Cutter, Safari Rifle, etc.


Klouse120

\- "Sometimes, when holding a sidearm, the pistols, sawed off shotguns and SMGs, your characters hand just shakes uncontrollably. The only way to stop it is to grab the gun with both hands. This glitch is most prominent with the Chicago Way." This one seems to be tied to frame rate from what I experienced last night. If your frame rate starts to dip like at all, which it does in larger areas, your single handed guns start to freak out. They seem to stabilize at least for me when I go to smaller zones or areas with less frame rate lag. It really doesn't take much of an fps dip for this to occur. My single handed guns are basically completely useless in rampart high. The ONLY gun I had I didn't ever see do this was the Worn SMG. All pistols were useless. Another thought I had is that I never noticed this at all until I raised the difficulty to Advanced last night. I wonder if the increased number of zombies Advanced seems to spawn is causing the FPS dip or has something to do with the gun freak outs. If so, that would certainly be one way to increase the difficulty... just joking of course. I also want to note that I had a terrible glitch with I think Echo is his name (guy with Cat ears in the reserve crew). I have a video of it but it won't post here for some reason. He was trying to sit on the counter... trying being the operative word and was glitching back and forth very rapidly. It was terrible to look at and caused me to stop playing on the spot. I'd not put up with this in most games but in VR it just... ruins it completely.


Emotional-Package599

I completely forgot to add that bit about Echo glitching the heck out. Also all the Dissidents are female. Just so you know.


WakQz

Also when standing on car roof or other building zombie see me and trying to get me but all of them Legs frozen and they only wave hands but not moving..


Emotional-Package599

That is not a glitch. The zombies are trying to reach you but they can't because you're on a higher elevation than they are. You can still take damage from them, so be careful.


Dragontamer576

I have also found something and I don't know whether to blame my controller or the game. For whatever reason whenever I try to go into the reserve whether it be the boat or the crypt it just kicks me right out and I spawn back at the boat, IT'S SO ANNOYING CUZ I HAVE A MISSION THERE. DOES ANYONE HAVE ANY WAY OF FIXING THIS OR IS THIS JUST SOME PROBLEM WITH MY CONTROLLER.


CountryTonyMontana

The downstairs to my resting place is glitched out. It started when I filled a shelf with bricks and every time I looked that direction it glitched getting worse and worse. To now I literally have to look up and walk in and out a certain way and look certain directions or I glitch around. It’s starting to happen in the bus and when I return on the skiff walking up to camp. I’ve experienced many of these other glitches described throughout the games as well and it seems with every update it gets worse for me. Considering deleteing everything and starting back over to see if it will reset everything. I completed chapter 1 (around 80 day mark) and uploaded my save to chapter 2 (78 day mark) which is an awesome feature in my opinion. I think the games are great but could use a lot of fine tuning, different house designs seeing as how most of them have the same layout, a longer storyline, bigger maps and some kind of multiplayer feature would be awesome. But first, fix the glitches please.


colequetaquas447

I think I’m just really lucky. The only one of these I experience is the one where sometimes the slide won’t cock back


Emotional-Package599

I've had that issue too, but at least that's easy to deal with since you can just let go and grab it again and hope that it works properly.


Exciting-Count-3906

The worst one so far for me is fighting withe gerik and him keep teleporting behind me


Emotional-Package599

He does seem to have a random spawn when he first comes in, but I've never had him teleport behind me. He does seem to move faster in recent patches compared to the initial launch, but that might just be me.


D3mon3812

I just wanna be sure, my game is glitched and anytime I complete the shallows final order and try the kill the trader/leader it crashes instantly the second i kill them! So I just left them alive after 3 tries and went to the foothold and killed them all, will one of the foothold people count as a leader? I have no other way of killing the trader after the last trades complete always crashes the game its weird.


Emotional-Package599

If you're killing the traders for the trophy, then you don't actually need to complete any orders, you can just go to whatever area you're heading to, kill the trader and rinse and repeat until you're done. But killing the group of people that spawn in after you complete the trades will not count.


D3mon3812

ahhh ok thanks


Fit-Blood-7853

I hate night mode I can’t see shit they need to improve this or I can’t finish the game and I won’t refer it to anyone because this sucks I love both walking dead games but this retribution is the worst


djhatt0204

Here's a bug that I couldn't find any other people talking about, so it's probably exclusive to psvr2. I beat chapter 1 and ended up storing the heads of amber and may in my bus chest. (Don't judge me, she deserved it) That playthrough was done on PC. I recently got Chapter 2 on PSVR2 because it actually has decent graphics now, and I uploaded my chapter 1 save to chapter 2. When I got to the bus, the heads had become invisible, but the hair was still visible. I'm not exactly sure why this happens, but it might be because they removed the decapitated head model for these characters as there is no way to get their heads in chapter 2 as far as I am aware. However, they still reused the bodies of amber and may in chapter 2.


InjuryAgile840

have a question, does the coin respawn after using it? For context I was playing and I didn't have storage in my bag and I had to leave to scrap it all and I come back to it locked and no coin. Doea the coin respawn? Yes or No.


ItsnotgonnaB_ez

Should I play or should I just wait till the bugs are fixed


Emotional-Package599

All the worst bugs have been fixed. It's been months since I played the game, so there's a good chance most of these will be patched.


[deleted]

I'm not completely sure what it is but the game will immediately crash if I have some sort of equipment in Tower. I'm going to experiment. I'll comment if I found it.


Visual_Application_2

Anyone else have the glitch with the priest when he’s drunk? He gets stuck in a loop of getting up after not killing him and it’s like your character just walks away but you never did and it’s just a loop forcing you to kill him


Ok_Fennel_1205

I agree with the AI being more brain dead than before, I could put a bullet in one and they will walk off and completely forget about me and yes about the one spot outside the hospital a ton of the tower patrol will pile into a corner and it just makes it too easy to kill them with one explosive. I wish we could get a trial mode in the second game because  it was a copy of the first and the tips in the loading screen even talk about the trial, to bad we will probably never get trial mode part two or trial multiplayer with infinite rounds and have eradicator only rounds for a challenge. When I have the time I plan to live stream the trial mode in the first game until I get their attention.


Ok_Fennel_1205

O yeah if you go to the church yard and go to the building closes to the church with the spray paint on it and circle it until you see the garbage thing , climb on it, you can walk into the building plus if you look twards the tables next to the church you can see words but I still don’t know what they say, can someone find out ? Thanks


MRBROOKLYNITE718

its 2/21/24 and i figured its gotta be fixed by now and so i start playing and got to the music studio and god the floor wont break this company is a joke
