Despite their popularity, Pok\u00e9mon Scarlet <\/em>and Violet<\/em> have had performance issues<\/a> since day one. Players have been vocal about it ever since. They pinned their hopes<\/a> on the last big patch<\/a>, but it didn\u2019t really fix much at all<\/a>\u2014at least, not the things they desperately wanted.<\/p>
Now, four months on from its release date, the same issues are still running rampant, and players banded together to vent their frustration<\/a> and create a fresh list of demands that must be fixed.<\/p>
Two major issues are at the forefront of their agenda.<\/p>
First, there\u2019s the issue of how horrible the game can look at times<\/a>, particularly due to visual bugs like the ground turning invisible. According to some, it makes Scarlet<\/em> and Violet<\/em> look worse than Sword<\/em> and Shield<\/em>.<\/p>
Second, there\u2019s the issue of how poorly Tera Raids run<\/a>. It\u2019s a laggy mess at the best of times, and synchronization issues between players online often cause teams to wipe.<\/p>
There\u2019s a slew of less prevalent but equally frustrating problems with lighting and shadows<\/a>, stuttering frame rates<\/a>, occasional crashes<\/a>, towns that feel soulless and empty<\/a>, and more.<\/p>
There are, of course, many players who are thoroughly enjoying the games<\/a> despite their issues. But at the same time, there are others who are refusing to buy them until they\u2019re fixed<\/a>.<\/p>
According to a report<\/a> from Serebii, the next patch will release in April. Its main purpose is to allow players who experienced a glitch in the Walking Wake and Iron Leaves Tera Raid Battle Event that caused them to catch an Egg instead of either Pok\u00e9mon to catch them again.<\/p>
There is, however, some hope<\/a> it will include other fixes, too.<\/p>","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
