The Haunt fiasco: Technical issues and poor design mar Roblox's Halloween event
The Haunt, one of the most anticipated titles on Roblox has finally been released and is already receiving a huge amount of criticism. This event contains several bugs and issues that are ruining the overall experience for everyone. With such a rough launch period, developer "Roblox Presents" is facing major backlash at the moment.
In this article, we discuss everything wrong happening in this title. This includes the bugs and other issues currently being faced by the players.
Roblox The Haunt has had a bad launch period
We have broken down every known issue in this experience in the following points:
Bugs with In-Hub Gear
While a myriad of players are already upset with the gameplay, the glaring technical issues have exacerbated the criticism against this Roblox title. For example, one bug makes it impossible for players to collect the Pure Light Lantern. This In-Hub is Gear obtained after digging up multiple graves in the Cemetery, which is quite a struggle.
After finally obtaining this item, it just won't show up in the inventory. Not only that, it won't even count as a collected item in the Tracker menu.
Bad launch period visuals
Apart from the above, the visuals of this event have been a huge disappointment so far. In certain locations, you can see a bright orange light coming from the ground momentarily. This shouldn't happen as it somehow makes the environment look bad.
Frequent lags
One of the major issues faced by the players is constant lags during their playthrough. Due to player outbursts, the servers have taken a bad toll, which is making the game event lag. Considering the hype before its launch, this issue was more likely to happen.
The surroundings in this event already look jam-packed with decoratives and UGCs. Within its limited space, you can often see players freezing or teleporting due to lag. This is rather annoying majorly due to the expectations players had from this event. Moreover, seeing your avatar or other players getting briefly frozen is not on the cards for anyone.
While a bunch of new updates are yet to be released in the upcoming days, developers might roll out a patch fixing the aforementioned issues.
