This something I find deeply frustrating about modern software development: "This is a known problem, here's a workaround "
If it's known, why does it not get fixed?
The PS4 version has game breaking bugs on local splitscreen. It essentially becomes unplayable. These bugs have been an issue since 1.3 release and yet after all this time they haven't been addressed.
3 years.
That's how long it has been since 1.3 was released on PS4. 3 years later I am still having to "work around" these bugs.
It's ok though, the 1.4 rewrite (coming "soon") will fix these issues. Maybe. But even if they don't, we'll come up with another workaround, which will keep you going until... well, who can say?
When a company says "Here's a workaround", I hear "We realise there's a problem, but we can't be bothered to fix it. Thanks for your money though."
Workarounds should be a temporary solution with an imminent fix, not a permanent feature.
Forgive me. This isn't aimed at the developers, or yourself, in any way. It's sheer frustration at still not being able to play a game I love properly.
