Same issue is happening with me, I'm using an Xbox One S and running the most recent update. We play in split screen co op almost exclusively, and have pretty much the exact same issue.

Can play through it though, just gotta go to the next floor. Love the game otherwise, thanks Eric!! Can't wait for Haunted Chocolatier :D

I was trying to play four player split screen on Xbox series x and it crashed multiple times. I also had the mining glitch in those sessions but it didn’t crash at the mines.
Does this also occur in online sessions?

I've never posted here before, but wanted to try and let the dev team know about some issues I experienced while playing the new update on Xbox series X. I was playing splitscreen local co-op with my girlfriend, who is really excited for the new stuff in the update, and mostly ran into issues while mining. After about 9 levels in the mines there would be visual glitches when swinging the pickaxe or breaking rocks, leaving after images of the swing motion stuck in midair, a little after this the game crashed. When we reloaded it, it did it again after around 9 levels, but I left the mines before the game crashed and we were able to play just fine still. So, it seems mostly associated with the mines, but we did have the game crash on us one other time last night while we were on the farm, she was watering and I was opening up a chest at the same time and then it froze and crashed and we called it a night there. It was also during winter, I'm not sure if that would matter. I was just playing solo and had no issues, although I didn't mine at all.

I love this game but this has to be the most frustrating thing.

They pushed a patch for xbx and ps over the holiday, it fixed several of the bigger issues but a lot of problems remain. Presumably they're working on the switch patch currently. We won't know anything else until they take time to update us. There's definitely more work to be done before they move on from 1.6 support, tho

I've reported a similar experience on Xbox Series S, and we've kind of gotten around it by not exploring more than 5 levels a day(just to the next elevator) in the mines, and whenever the visuals get glitchy sleep that night to save and then quiting and restarting the game. Had 2 crashes within 3hrs a couple days ago, but after trying this method we played 5-6hrs with no progress lost, and only 1-2 game restarts.

Same here. Xbox one x. Game unmodified, console has unlocked dev mode if that makes a difference. Besides the every minute 1-2 second mega lag which makes fishing impossible, the mine lockups and the game crashes happen often to us. (We play every day, about 3 hours, daily 1-2 crashes)

Xbox player, Co-op playthrough

Same issue, girlfriend and I are having these issues in the mines for the past month that we have been playing. Really frustrating considering the items that I need I can not pick up and they are just staring me in the face but I can’t interact with anything in the mines… I really hope this glitch is fixed soon because mining is such an important element of the game and to not be able to do it without worrying about glitches, missing items, or the game crashing is extremely frustrating… how there is a fix soon! : )

Having this issue constantly on Xbox One S in local co-op. Very frustrating attempting to mine and having to leave to reset due to the glitch of not being able to pick up anything and pixels being frozen. Only happens to player 1 in our scenario. Makes doing skull cavern very difficult if not impossible until this is fixed.

On top of the animation glitch ingredients and random crashing, I've noticed this lag as well. Xbox series x, 2P splitscreen.

Fwiw, seems like most splitscreen games on Xbox are broken in some way. I really enjoy this game, and it's a bit more casual than others. Although, I feel like days are always too short. 🤣

I had a game crash on Xbox in Co-op play. My wife and I entered into the volcano on Ginger Island and the game crashed. I have also noticed some increase in lag while we are doing stuff inside our home in the game. Opening fridges, chests and even the menu has made the game stutter. No crashes from those particular instances. Us entering the Volcano at the same time is what made the game crash. If anyone else had the same issue as well please let me know. Thank you. Edit: It seems that the game crash happened on the day of a festival. My wife said that the volcano dungeon levels all looked exactly the same with no enemies, upon entering alone. Entering at the same time crashed it. Finally figured out what may have caused it.

Experiencing the same thing on ps5 coop with my lady. Happens very often. Love the game regardless. Hopefully it gets fixed soon.

Having this issue on ps5.

Same issue as OP in co-op play.

Getting the glitch where everything freezes (monsters stop moving) and when you break nodes/stones it leaves the animation and you can no longer progress.

I've also found that when eating in the mines , my character will throw two of the same pieces of food for the eating animation. (Don't know what this means but it's a thing apparently haha)

My girlfriend and I are having the exact same problems.

It's frustrating because it happens very often, and sometimes twice in a row; when it freezes, I leave the mine via a ladder and then use the elevator to go to another level. Upon entering the level, things are frozen again.

Very annoying

The freezing in the mines is the worst. Especially on a floor ending in 4 or 9.
The stutters and lag aren't as game breaking, but I've played plenty of early access games, so I guess I'm accustomed to it. Hopefully an easy fix.
