rare, fix black screen, for the love of god

Discussion

I don't know how its 2025 and this is still an issue despite rare claiming that they've "fixed" it numerous times.

I died at the beginning of the fight, and as I respawned I heard them:

  • running over our ship

  • the creaking as the ship filled

  • the ship sinking and the players splashing in the water as they collect our treasure

  • and i hear my character drowning

All to backspawn after my ship's been sunk as they finish collecting the last of the supplies. I only had one life in the entire fight. It took the game nearly five entire minutes from when I died to spawn me back in the game.

Somehow, this bug persists. This is the exact kind of game-breaking bug that makes the game unenjoyable, and I know for a fact it drove me away for a long time initially when I first started grinding HG. Yet, in S17, we have re-skinned boring gameplay loops and changed gunshot sound effects to look forward to.

PLEASE focus on the game-breaking issues. Not this piddly stuff.
