Atomic Heart has significant performance issues and bugs on specific platforms, including multiple Xbox Game Pass users finding themselves unable to advance past the game's intro. While it's yet to cause any robot uprisings, Atomic Heart hasn't had a perfect launch either. RELATED: Atomic Heart Launched With No Ray Tracing Support on PC The game was released today on PC, PS4, PS5, Xbox One, and Xbox X/S. However, Thought's launch goes horribly wrong, and players take control of Major Sergei Nechaev as he battles killer robots, biological experiments run amok, and his own deteriorating psyche. The same scientist later developed a device called Thought, allowing humans to integrate Polymer directly into their bodies. This programmable liquid led to massive technological breakthroughs in energy, robotics, and artificial intelligence. Fortunately, this Atomic Heart bug proved relatively easy to fix.ĭeveloped by Mundfish, Atomic Heart is a 'Shock-like' first-person shooter set in an alternate universe where a Soviet scientist developed a substance called Polymer in the 1930s. It's not entirely clear what is causing this glitch, though it may stem from an issue that occurs for players who preloaded the game or downloaded it shortly after release. When I heard they had chosen unity I knew that they'd have a rocky road ahead.An unusual bug prevented some Xbox Game Pass users from completing the intro to the newly released Atomic Heart. And probably they're focusing on performance issues as well.īut, I'm not keeping my hopes up. If I recall correctly Rust for example is Unity based? So it could easily be that they're getting there little by little. Unity is absolutely a brilliant engine for anything it's aimed to do.Īnd perhaps they're driving more towards 3D-RPG shooters now. You have to create a lot of custom code that goes around certain issues, and the updates tend then to make big changes and force to go back and fix stuff that was previously working.Īll of the above is of course no problem for 95% of the games released with it. The support is hard to get on some non-standard issues (probably not a big issue for Tencent?) and the wheels turn slow. And you can create beautiful stuff with it. As someone who works in a company that has tried for the past 3-4 years make Unity do something that it's not originally meant to, it's possible of course.
