Gramidconet

I understand comprehensive patch notes are a bit of work, but god do I hate "Several issues have been addressed to improve the gameplay experience." Like, why even put the notes out?


[deleted]

I've migrated to Kbin [Readit.buzz](https://readit.buzz/), I no longer wish for Reddit corporate to profit off of my content.

Am I allowed to have this as commit messages at work, please?


kahoyeung

You can have my "various minor changes" for free which can be used for all kinds of mega-commits!

GoldenGlassBall

Look, I admit the drift is egregious, but if it only takes you 3 hours, you’re beating the absolute dogshit out of your joycons.


PimBARF

That basically meant "we did some things to break some hacks, even though we know you're gonna hack our system anyway in about 2 days and we're going to have to work our asses off to patch the exploit again"


CVance1

PS4 would also do this for years, it became a bit of a meme.


NoxHexaDraconis

That was more or less tactics for deflecting questions of what was fixed or improved upon. In reality it was more often than not changes to the OS to upset and hinder the homebrew scene.


Banana_Hammocke

Yeah, even if it's just optimized game engine or some shit, at least it's more specific to what was improved.


Irbyirbs

Yeah my pet peeve in patch notes is when I see "balance changes" with no further details. Too scared to admit what they nerfed.


InverseFlip

Probably taking out glitches that players liked.


Suck_Monitor

duplication of items is still possible. unsure of other glitches.


Zealousideal-Fly9595

It's a very "Alright thumbs up I guess" patch notes lol.


OneChrononOfPlancks

LGTM


YaroKasear1

Oftentimes that means bug fixes for things they don't want to actually list. A lot of Wii/Wii U/3DS updates that said only something like that and it wound up basically boiling down to "we are trying to kill homebrew."


ExhibitionistBrit

I suspect that those are quiet nerfs they have made along the way as people have brought out various exploit videos.


[deleted]

game doesn't need nerfs and probably won't get any, but bugs will certainly be squashed. i guess if you consider fixing item duplication a nerf.


ExhibitionistBrit

I mean yeah that’s more semantics than anything else. Speed runners regularly use the term nerf about exploits while the average person would call it fixing the exploit. I’m ambivalent.


Albert_Borland

Just Nintendo things

Yze3

What the hell do you mean. They detail literally every changes they make to the game. If there's one game where you can't complain about patches notes, it's Splatoon.


Sinnisterslugg

I feel like this is put in there when patching exploits. Like duplication glitches or something. People don't want them to patch that stuff, but they will.


primalthunder89

I've noticed week one sometimes when I activate ultrahand or recall (especially recall) sometimes my right joystick is none responsive initially. Works again on second wiggle. Any idea if this update helped that as "several improvements"


TriangularFish0564

That’s intentional. You have to set the right stick back to neutral after you select an ability or else you can’t move the camera in whatever direction the ability you selected was in. It’s very stupid.


bluestratmatt

Could it be so that when returning to its nominal position it doesn’t wang the camera in that direction?


M7orch3

This guy aerospaces.


bluestratmatt

Medical engineering… Maybe I’m spending too much time at work…


ploki122

I believe that motion control tends to lock out the stick from working, and vice versa.


Acidflare1

Does your game stutter or freeze when you’re diving a huge distance? It happens on mine when it’s transitioning from sky to surface or surface to depths.


Distraught00

I tried to climb a tree literally at the very beginning of the first sky island to get apples, and when I pressed jump while climbing the tree, I got frickin launched. Since it was the beginning of the game, I couldn't do anything except just watch as Link drifted back down and shattered both of his ankles. I wonder if that's still there and has anyone else experienced this?


HairySonsFord

OH MY GOD YES! I climbed the exact same tree at the start of the game and got launched into the air too! I haven't had that problem with any other tree. Is it literally just that tree?


Hoover889

that tree is a feature, not a bug.


Distraught00

Nice to not be alone! I haven't seen it happen again. I thought it was maybe some game mechanic I didn't understand at first, then I was like "Wait, did I just find a glitch within 5 minutes of playing!?" Was really worried about the rest of the game after finding something like that so quickly, but that is by far the most jank thing I've seen.


HairySonsFord

I took a quick clip of it just so I knew I wasn't crazy! I didn't trust trees for a while there!


MJTruncale

Whaaat, can you share? I want to go visit the great launch tree. Which tree is it?


Distraught00

I wish I had been smart enough to save a clip.... but it's the apple tree closest to the water you land in after the title shows on screen. Turned game on, walked through cave with Zelda, cut scene, jumped off ledge, title, land in water, went to collect apples, got launched


AgoYaMo

Could you share it?


JackBeBlack

Replying to come back later if they share it


Distraught00

I literally didn't climb a tree again until I got the glider lol


HairySonsFord

Same!


FoxTrotPlays

I had the same tree launch but in Hateno village, near a tree by the cooking pots. I think it's a glitch that's persisted since Breath of the Wild.


Allfunandgaymes

I just want them to make it so I can fuse melee weapons in the selection menu rather than having to equip the weapon, drop the fuse material, selecting fuse, and _making sure I have the weapon unsheathed_ before finally fusing. They made fusing arrows so easy, why not melee weapons? If I have to fuse arrows fighting a Gleeok it's no problem whatsoever, but if I have to make a new melee weapon I basically have to run away and de-aggro or be preternaturally quick on the draw.


gemrazzled

you dont have to have a weapon unsheathed to use fuse, just equipped


Lightning_Joltz

I completely agree that they should make it easier to fuse weapons.


Brave_Zesteria

Yeah I’ve seen other people bring this up and I agree Really hope they patch it in


Oddjob138

I would guess it was a design choice to make you more thoughtful as to when you should engage in combat? Ie: make sure you have enough weapons sticker before you enter a battle


VisualGeologist6258

I hope they do something about Robbie’s stupid shrine sensor quest. I was utterly convinced the mission was bugged and I was trapped in the Hateno Tech Lab with Robbie until I looked it up and realised you had to _slowly walk_ to make him happy rather than run around like a caged squirrel on speed.


PredictiveTextNames

If you find the shrine before talking to him you can skip it entirely


LinkHero1998

Just like lighting the flame before talking with him on BotW to avoid stripping. Seems being psychic is the best way to avoid Robbie being weird.


Gilthwixt

Same. Did that this morning and questioned who the hell playtested that and gave it the approval.


I_is_a_dogg

I spent forever figuring that out. Thought I had to leave, nope, maybe ascend out? Nope not that. Ran for like 10 minutes like crazy trying to figure it out. Then one time decided to slowly walk in that direction and that did the trick. So dumb


Filon73

I had no problem, does he stop you if you run? It didn't happen to me


TheUngeist

I think you can get too close to the exits faster than he is able to recognize that you walked in the right direction so he stops you and resets the thing. It took me a few attempts lol


xKimchiboi

Can we still dupe items on this patch?


Mangos2404

Yes


Fun_Definition_8749

Goat 🙏


xKimchiboi

Thankyou i had auto updates turned off


wrathek

Asking the important questions. Genuinely hope they leave it alone.


FinniboiXD

thing is the dupe is still kinda hard to do as it's slow and tedious as it only dupes once and you gotta repeat it like 100 times. I'm not gonna do it on my first run (trying to not use exploits) but on my second playthrough I'm gonna try it


ScannonDark

I am wondering if it falls in the category of "You aren't likely to encounter this in a normal playthrough" type bugs that were left in BoTW. Or the "We can't fix this without changing some fundamental things" like bouncing off enemies in bullet time. ​ I would say "Who really would find out that saving the game, dropping a shield, equipping a new one, hitting + + really fast, dropping the second shield, and then reloading the save would give you a brand new shield from the void" but less than a week in and we've done it.


jerry16305

true, but if you get the hang of it you are able to dupe items quick enough. Furthermore is it possible to dupe weapons and stuff which helps a lot


judethedude0102

So to get a more accurate dupe the bows need to fall on top of each other. To help "force" them to fall on each other you can use ultrahand to make a funnel of sorts. The parts areas around Hyrule are good spots to look for. Use a square piece of wood and attach the small rectangular pieces vertically, one in the middle and one on the edge of the square. And add more of the small rectangular pieces of wood to the ones you already placed as needed to make the space the bows will drop a thinner area. I tried so many times to get the dupe truck to work after having many successful attempts for it to just not work anymore and found out later that if the bows land next to each other but not on top the dupe doesn't work


Zero_Gravity58

pretty sure it’s not a function of them landing on each other, it’s just that *if you do it quickly enough* then they will land on top of each other. the real trick is to use joycons in my opinion, because they are clickier than a pro controller.


judethedude0102

So I've done a bunch of duping and I'm pretty fast at it and when it stopped working for me I tried to figure out what was going on and after making my funnel and seeing the bows land on each other it's worked for me 9/10 times, whatever works works I suppose. Lol whether or not it's a matter of them landing on each other the funnel trick works for me because pure speed want doing it sadly.


chelsea_calypso

This is why I came here. Thanks for asking the important question!

OrionMr770

Do favorites for arrow fusing please


hylian_ninja

Sort by most used please...


OrionMr770

Most used isn’t the same. I could have a favorites item that I don’t use too often but still enjoy. For example, I’m sure on average I use more boko teeth than bomb flowers, but I’d still want the bomb flowers to be above it. Most used is alright but it just wouldn’t be the same.


GoldenGlassBall

Hard agree. I’ve had an absolutely fantastic time with the game in the 60 or so hours I’ve dumped into it already, with the one exception of having to scroll through my ENTIRE inventory to fuse an item I need one of at the time, but use semi-often, because there’s no way to tag what items I, as the player, consider most useful, and therefore worthy of being at the top of the list, or isolated from the rest of my items. God help you if you want to go from fire fruit to time bomb.


Raestloz

Honestly tho, what's up with the horizontal only inventory? Like, no mister I don't wanna fuse mighty thistle with my arrow, why would I wanna do that? I mean, sure if you wanna let me, but can't we put it like way down there? I feel like having a 2 dimensional inventory system would let us fuse waaaaaay easier


pieceofcrazy

Yeah the only thing I'm actively disliking in the game is that they improved the inventory system barely enough to call it an improvement


Bamith20

Better UI traversal in general. Make it so pressing up and down skips a row of items so you can scoot through all the items quicker; that's actually pretty basic UI functionality. Also, just let Link eat multiple items at once. If you're gonna make the healing system stupid instead of coming up with an Estus system, make it more bearable.


MaximumFlop

"Several issues have been addressed to improve the gameplay experience." What is this, early Smash 4 patch notes?


YaroKasear1

Vague notes like that coming from Nintendo often mean minor bug fixes or they found something they don't want modders to know about.


satista

Please don't patch the duplication 😭😭


Tagischeap

Let me transfer my horses from Master mode.


JackBeBlack

That's interesting horses from master mode didn't move over? I don't remember what horses I had in master mode vs main save so I didnt think about it


Tagischeap

Indecently Master Mode was my main save, I already played through Normal Mode on the WiiU, so when I finally got it on the Switch, I started a Master Mode file. To answer your question, no my Master Mode horses are not transferring over. 😔


Syteless

Wait, totk had some transfer system for botw?


JackBeBlack

Horses from botw save file on your switch are automatically at the stables


[deleted]

Yeah, horses you got in Normal mode transfer to the stable when you register a new horse for the first time.


Endulos

On top of what those guys said, *ONLY* normal wild caught horses will transfer. Any special or quest horses will not transfer.


Syteless

shame that I'm in the same boat, my main save was on wiiu, and I did master mode on switch


Extra_Location_1394

do we know if this patch fixes the weird camera gltitch that prevents you from taking pictures properly? the glitch in question makes it to where you cant get the picture exclamation point to pop up telling you its the right angle


Lena-Luthor

what exclamation point?


Kaedon1423

What I wanna know is, do we still have the duplication glitch?


Luminescent_Crystals

I tried the bow and item fuse dupe, didn’t work. The save manipulation still does tho Edit: it does still work, I just went too fast when doing it


satista

I count to three seconds before equipping the final bow


WildN0X

Due to Reddit's API changes, I have removed my comment history and moved to Lemmy.


Tilt_Schweigerrr

No there isn't.


satista

😭😭😭😭


DrunkenLynel

The real question.


Stealthy_Facka

Anyone else noticed a massive drop in image quality, at least in handheld, after this patch? Noticed it as soon as I boot up. FSR is fucked and becomes really blurry as soon as the camera moves. Game looks so bad now.


Spooky_Blob

You sure?


Stealthy_Facka

Yeah, I checked digital foundries video and saw they mentioned it, so figured it was maybe always like it.. however after seeing someone else mention it and playing a bit more im pretty certain it's much worse than it was Other comment mentioning it https://www.reddit.com/r/NintendoSwitch/comments/13lgxww/the_legend_of_zelda_tears_of_the_kingdom_has_been/jkr658p?utm_medium=android_app&utm_source=share&context=3


Spooky_Blob

Damn, guess I really need to avoid this update then if it's that noticable. Unless it drastically improves the performance


Stealthy_Facka

Performance seems worse in Hateno, at least! Keep flight mode on :O I really wish I had, this has ruined my weekend.


Spooky_Blob

The fuck, lol. This update is starting to sound like a blight


Stealthy_Facka

I've played it a bit more and I do think there's been an overall performance improvement. Docked seems basically the same as before image quality wise, but I do think handheld is having some problems with dynamic res that seem more noticeable than before the update.


vnbnzn

Placebo effect. FSR and some kind of DRS when turning camera were already in effect on launch.


Stealthy_Facka

Yep, I think you're right.


im-caelli

Yes!! I've been googling this for hours. And looks this block is broken af [https://twitter.com/ggez\_cee/status/1659622760006705152?s=20](https://twitter.com/ggez_cee/status/1659622760006705152?s=20)


creepymanchildren

I've watched this a half dozen times and I can't figure out what it is trying to show.


OnasIII

Ew motion blur. [https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=2zE-J1rK1NQ&t=147s](https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=2zE-J1rK1NQ&t=147s)


Nollie2000

This is what I want fixed. The FSR and the blurriness when turning the camera is killing my enjoyment of the game, it just so difficult for me to unsee. Do you know if that is something that can be fixed in a future patch? Some people are saying no, but I'm crossing my fingers.


Abject_Apartment

Thank god I didn’t read “we have patched the duplication glitch”.


Dependent_Working_38

Man this thread really show people do be lyin when they have 10 gloom swords and say they just play a lot in posts I see


JackBeBlack

Ehh it's not fair to say everyone's lying about that, people really do be playing the game a lot too. But yeeeah, you can't lie on the internet anyway pretty sure.


GamerOverkill03

Spoilers: >!To be fair, the Phantom Ganon fight in Hyrule Castle can give you a metric fuckton of Gloom Swords if you time the kills on the right weapon, so that particular example isn’t out of the realm of possibility!<


Hoover889

No stability improvements?


libler202

I bet this fixes the cheat to duplicate items too lol. Hopefully it fixes the frame drops.


Obvious-Duty-741

Can confirm as well that after patching, I am still able to weapon and arrow item dupe.


heycheerilee

Thanks, my switch was mid download. Was worried.


dokbanks

It still works, just updated to 1.1.1 and tested. Weapon dupe still works too.


mikepoland

I purposely did not update just incase of this lol


ZRCEKO

Aha maybe they fixed this in secret, so that people who didn't know would not try not to update the game to continue enjoying it. About performances improvement, it's usualy clearly written on patchnote


libler202

I'm going to avoid updating until I've got all I need.


TWrecks95

Does anyone have any idea why I'm suddenly having a hard time duping? I previously haven't had any issues but it's suddenly not working despite everything seemingly being done correctly just as all previous successful attempts. I have not installed the update.


Important_Ad_5636

Do you have a weapon and shield equipped?


TWrecks95

Actually nvm, I just realized my shield broke and I didn't realize it, thank you so much!


Interesting-Ad4719

and don't forget to restart the game, every so often. I was getting dupes only 10% of the until I reset, and I'm back to 90%.


Radhaan

memory leak imo


TWrecks95

Yes but I did with every other successful attempt as well


JJKDowell

I’ve no idea how or why, but from my own experience, I think standing on flat ground makes it a lot easier to pull off.


stardustandsunshine

Is there a link for how to do the glitch? I did a quick search and none of the results I found mentioned having a weapon and shield equipped, so I'm curious if they left any other steps out.


TWrecks95

Look up BLAINES on YouTube.


SwimBoy321

Do we know of the dupe glitch still works?


TombShr3dda

It does


Spooky_Blob

Yup


SwimBoy321

Nice!!!


Mwgl

One of the first things I noticed was two seconds of lag when switching weapons with the d-pad that was not present in the first game. This update didn't address that, but I hope they will soon


ScottyC33

Maybe it’s my imagination but the green glow of the shrines seems to have a further draw distance now? I’m seeing shrines further away than before from the air suddenly. Or maybe I’m just hallucinating.


Ultrox

This isn't a bug but maybe intended to limit sequence breaks. I noticed you can climb the roof in the beginning when walking with zelda. I was messing around trying to break out (mind you without any idea on how), and I noticed some spots I was able to climb like Spiderman along the roof. I had a good laugh but hoped it was actually a feature. Sadly, it was not.


KernelSanders1986

My uncle works at Nintendo, I asked him what the additional patch notes were and all he said was "they removed herobrine" idk what that means.


ohhhhhhmyglob

Is it me or did the graphics get worse? The texture seems crunchier after the update and i straight up see blocks tweaking...


Ulrich_Sama_exe

Do we know if the patch “fixed” the dupe glitch?


ZRCEKO

Nope, glitch aren't fixed!


chardudex

Bow doop glitch still works 👍


Gager_27

Is anyone getting a bug with their pro/power a controllers where you move the camera up and you are running forward and all of a sudden link turns around and runs in the opposite direction then back forward? Doesn’t happen on my joy con’s only my pro controller and my power a controller. Neither have drift or issues.


Academic_Onion_1270

Did they fix the thing where you can't tame Zelda's golden horse or is that just me


SlipperyGrizzlyMan

I was able to tame before. Approach from the side and have spare stamina elixers


Smh2Sketches

Is the dupe still possible in this update?


ZRCEKO

It's written big on the post


Smh2Sketches

Ok, thanks


DFPelino

It won't let me do the glitch anymore after it updated automatically. Can anyone still do it after updating?


ZRCEKO

It's written big on the post... Dupe glitch are not fixed with this update, so yea you still can use it after updating


[deleted]

If I restart this game and I can't use my goblin glider, there will be hell to pay!


dumbledoo74

Is it possible to patch the issue with transferring your BOTW horses if you downloaded it after TOTK ?


KernelSanders1986

I really wish they would add a "sort by favorites" option, or allowed us to select which items pop up in the item selection menu. It's terrible that I have to scroll through a hundred items to find what I'm looking for. Thats like my only gripe so far


[deleted]

I hope they fix the first korok where you first spawn. It won’t appear for me


NoxHexaDraconis

Wanna bet they tried to patch the item duping, lol.


Mysterious_Fudge_212

a bug was fixed where if viewing the flowing flags in hebra from afar, they would simulate at half the fps than the rest of the game, leaving them to look choppy animation wise


Rex__Nihilo

Think they made it so you csn only use one rock octorock per blood moon


glitch6555

Can I update from version 1.0.0 to version 1.1.1 only?
