User Interface

Certain content in the Deep Desert is missing a 3D representation on the UI map.
Your faction level in the UI may not update properly when receiving experience from House reputation faction contracts.
Arrakeen City Locations and Harko Village map markers are categorized as vendors in the Filter menu and cannot be filtered using the Locations filtering option.
The inventory preview of Armor and Stillsuit pieces does not go back to their original swatch color in the Inventory menu when selecting the default swatch after setting a custom swatch. Workaround: Reopening the inventory should correct it.
The Journey Card controller Track keybinding [Y] is not functional.
The camera cannot be panned while zoomed in on the map of Harko Village and Arrakeen.
Some players are experiencing issues with the in-game text chat. We are actively working to restore full chat functionality as soon as possible.

Deep Desert, Endgame, & Landsraad

Ornithopter animation can stutter when crossing a border in the Deep Desert.
Captured Control Point is not displaying the logo of the faction currently controlling it.
The large Spice Field disappears abruptly at the beginning of the Ringmouth Worm attack.
The CHOAM Refining Contract decree that reduces the refining time by 75% applies only to the first and the last item in the crafting order queue.

Combat

You may experience some desync when entering the suspension field of the Suspensor-Pad.
Re-entering the Hunter-Seeker right before it expires causes functionality loss.
The Knee Charge Ability is not cancelled when doing certain actions.
You will spawn in DBNO if you wait long enough on the respawn screen before respawning.
Character is unable to cast any ability after using any grenade ability in quick succession. Workaround: Swapping tools/weapons or re-logging.

Vehicles

The Ornithopter wings can have some visual issues when motion blur is disabled.
The mining laser of the Buggy will keep firing even after exiting the vehicle or switching seats while the laser is running. Workaround: Fire the laser from the turret seat once more.
The chassis on vehicles that are not fully assembled get immediately destroyed when hit by a sandstorm.
The Carrier's Side Hull Hologram belonging to the Right Side is displayed on the Left Side.

Graphics, Animations, and VFX

Tattoos are shown in low resolution the first time you go through them in Character Creation or when switching from one tab to another.
Coriolis wind VFX is present inside the Trial of Aql altar rooms.
The background can be missing/not properly loaded during dialogue with Seron Varlin in the “A Tormented Soul” and “Art of the Sword” contracts.
Character animation breaks upon switching from one sword to another while performing a basic attack. Workaround: Swapping tools/weapons.
The player character twitches unnaturally multiple times during the Interrogation cinematic.
Camera flickering during the conversation with Elara Tuek during the "A Tormented Soul" swordmaster trainer contract

Worldbuilding and Exploration

There are, on rare occasions, misplaced exchange terminals located in Harko Village's CHOAM exchange location.
Sandworm Stare animation may stutter and replay upon successfully escaping a chase attack.
There are cases where the boss for Testing Station no. 2 won't spawn.
We've understood that some people do not understand that their actions have consequences and have chosen to kill their mentor before completing their training. Ignoring several warnings. Now they are upset that they can no longer train. The Sisterhood has heard your mewling acolytes. We will provide an opportunity for you to continue your training in a future patch - but we expect you learn a valuable lesson about the price of betrayal.

Resources, Building, and Crafting

Unable to continue mining using the Cutteray if the Buggy Mining Laser Beam was used on the resource node prior, and vice versa. Workaround: Try a different resource node.
Building structures can be snapped under the surface.
Abandoning/deleting one of your sub-fiefs will not change the spawn point to the other one available. Workaround: Manually set your respawn point to the new sub-fief.

Contracts

Dialogue choice to complete the "Deep Extraction" appears twice during the conversation with Anton Tolliver.
An objective marker for the “Enter the Testing Station no. 29” step from the “The trouble with traitors” faction contract is placed far inside the station.
The map marker for the second step of “Price of Betrayal” faction contract is not present on the map after the player reaches the Spiral Deserter outpost.
"Betray The Atreides" contract cannot be completed if the player exits the dialogue after giving Maxim the letter.
The UI progress bar for the objective of faction contracts doesn't get updated if the player dies.
The Damasteel Sword permit can be lost after you die and don't recover your backpack, locking you out of the swordmaster contract.

Other

You can’t interact with the loot bag left behind when picking up a dead body to be used for the Deathstill. Regular loot bags work as intended.
In rare cases, when you enter a Trial of Aql or other single-player story mission in a party, the party may break upon returning to the Hagga Basin map.
Workaround: Press "P" to open party/social screen, then hold "X", every member must do this to disband the party, then re-create it.
Some players may occasionally disconnect with an error message stating that they were kicked due to an anti-cheat violation.
Some players may be experiencing performance issues due to the BattleEye's interaction with DisplayFusion. Workaround: Disable DisplayFusion and relaunch the game.
Using the "unstuck" button while in a vehicle will not function.
