[PS5] map area discovery reset when porting out
PS5 Pro, PS5 client. When leaving a map area (dying, using a portal, Vaal side area, some boss arenas etc) all map discovery is reset upon re-entering. This didn't happen using the PS4 client on the same machine.

This is known as the "local storage bug", and it can be temporarily fixed by launching a different game.
Not every game works (D4 is known not to work). Steps: 1) Fully close Path of Exile 2) Launch the other game (get at least as far as the menu) 3) Fully close the other game 4) Relaunch Path of Exile This should temporarily fix the fog or war issue (as well as some custom filter related issues). They will return after some extended play time. The amount of play before the bug reappears has been shortening over the last few patches, and is now in the range for 6-8 hours for me. If launching a different game doesn't fix it, it can always be fixed by deleting and redownloading the game. FYI, this bug does exist on the PS4 version, it just takes longer to appear. I really hope GGG has found the cause of this issue, and is making sure that it won't appear in PoE2, and will eventually patch it in PoE1. |
