PS5 Native Client Fog of War Reset report # 1465090501 with video

Bug Report # 1465090501

This long standing bug is unfortunately present in the new PS5 Native Client.

https://youtu.be/-aUvS-mvW2o?si=bD0QVRY1-U5nugXB

Notice how the entire map is revealed on death. Upon reentry of the map, fog of war has reset. Walking through the area will reveal the map again, only to be reset up reloading the instance.

Known community fix is reinstalling the game.

After uploading the example video, I deleted the PS5 app of PoE. Started in safemode, cleared cache, and redownloaded.

This will "fix" the issue, until the data leak reaches a point for this issue to be visible again.

This is one symptom of a greater issue. Another symptom is the loot filter de-sync, as well as the party/whisper bug.

This issue not being on the known issues list is concerning considering the number of posts related to this topic.

Hoping to provide a full overview of the issue.

In the past, on the ps4 client, this issue occurred after enough playtime accrued. The amount of time required to generate the issue was reaching new lows (not good).

In less than 9 hours of play time on the PS5 client, this example was made.

Please put this issue on the known issues, and please fix this.

40gb download required for every 10 hours of gameplay cannot be acceptable.

I just started having this today as well.

Less than 24 hours of gameplay on the PS5 client before starting this issue.

Even worse than it was on the PS4 client.

GGG, *please* *please* look into this. There have been TONS of forum posts about it for years.

Any that I noticed I replied to and mentioned "local storage bug". The bug can manifest as either fog of war issues or custom filter issues, but always progresses to affect both if you continue to play without reinstalling.

I will *not* be reinstalling the game once per 15-20 hours of play, that's absurd.

So we now have to reinstall every 1-2 days. Nice ^^
Logged in today to find my loot filters broken, again. I know to expect the fog of war now within a couple of maps, at most.

I wonder how bad this gets without a reinstall. Let's find out
This is giving me atlas memories of console launch. I have installed the game multiple times as well as guildmates due to this bug. I've had this happen a couple times in the past few years. Where now it's happening almost daily. CLEARLY this is problematic and you don't want to doom future game launch fix this for console. Thanks for your consideration. GG ggg on the progress we will be yer Betas
Same issues here!
Fog of War appears again when leaving map and Item Filters keep breaking.

Plz fix asap tyty ;)
Fog of war bug kicked back in yesterday.

The only reason I am tempted to reinstall is to recreate the issue and keep bumping this post until someone from GGG graces us plebs with a acknowledgement.

This bug is out of hand and its the same thing with custom filters they break every couple days and only way to fix is reinstall. It cant stay like this please fix.
Two new console bug threads on this same topic.

If this is on the known issues list, it is in such a vague manor that everyone assumes GGG must be unaware of this growing issue.

Let's fix it! Put it on the list, to start.
Thanks for your reports.

We are aware of the issue and working on a solution.
