Players who have logged into the action RPG Lords of the Fallen may have found far fewer people to play with in multiplayer as of late. That is because there were some issues that prevented some from establishing a stable connection with the game's servers. Fortunately, developer Hexworks has been quick to resolve this by releasing a timely update, which is now available on all platforms.
What's the Deal?
The company has addressed the myriad of bugs that have been causing nasty issues in Lords of the Fallen recently via Update v.1.1.441, particularly in multiplayer.
For instance, there was a bug that caused players to disconnect from a co-op session if two players tried to join the same session at the same time. Thankfully, this has now been squashed.
There was also a case where players could get disconnected if the host triggered the pre-fight cinematic at the exact same moment that they were trying to connect to that session. Don't worry, this is now fixed as well.

Other Issues Addressed
Besides the bugs that caused a lot of headaches for those who wanted to play with other people, the company also addressed other pressing problems that have been plaguing the game.
For one, the issue where in-game controls would become unresponsive when reviving at the Vestige of Ranik has now been resolved.
In addition, players who have encountered the issue where their previously saved games would not show in the "Load Game" menu can now breathe easy. That is because the company was able to pinpoint the exact bug that was causing this, so it won't be causing similar problems from now on.
