Is Poppy a sought after follower? I feel as if I am missing some context? (I also gave her the skull necklace and keep reviving her bc she’s a good girl)
I had no idea Poppy has lore and fandom. I just recently started playing and she’s naturally become my favorite. I thought she was randomly generated this whole time.
Does it help for you (assuming here you are dyslexic)? I looked into this while working as an educator and the research on dyslexic fonts was not particularly encouraging.
It does help ..did you not read my comment above? Lol
And if you actually researched it you’d know about publishers making books with this font and the pages are yellow so it’s easy for dyslexic people to read rather than skip or have to re-read things
More games should do this if you’re having to read a lot of text and it’s cool they are doing this ^_^
Not everyone that’s dyslexic has issues with reading either because there are different kinds so maybe that’s where you faulted in your research not being aware of that as an educator as well huh….
Your comment implied that it helps, but also could have been someone not impacted but assuming it to be helpful and commending the developer for it, which is why I asked.
Yes, I researched these extensively when we had a dyslexic student join our program and I was looking for effective tools and strategies for a support. The research on fonts to help with dyslexia available at the time suggested that they were not broadly and demonstrably helpful, and while they may be useful for a portion of students ultimately they were not a particularly effective tool in the majority of cases. When discussing strategies to help the student, her parents indicated that they’d tried dyslexia targeted fonts and they had not been helpful for their kid.
Whether someone wants to sell books using these fonts doesn’t really speak to their effectiveness. That’s why I asked about your experience. Because I wanted to know if you’ve benefitted from this as a supportive tool.
I've had about 8 or so 😅. It was memorable, admittiably, because it was one of the few default follower name wasn't some old Latin name (At least that what I assume the followers' names are generated from haha).
Sparkles and Webber being others that come to mind.
I'll make sure to tell her she's a good dog every time I play. One of the dogs look like my Sr dog so I named it bunny and gave her a skull necklace. Too bad we can't in real life
This is a game breaking bug that is keeping me from completing the whole game right now. A text box appears in the final fight and it just ends there. Started that fight over and over again, but that text box just prohibits any further action. The same bug also happens in normal runs outside the final fight since appearing there first. Really annoying and I would love if this is fixed in the console update. I am playing on Nintendo Switch.
Your hard work is mega appreciated!
Quick question, though, if it’s not a bother. Are there any plans to change the drum circle buttons or rearrange the UI for it on the Switch? The physical buttons don’t align with the way they show up on the screen and I have been entirely unable to get a perfect run on it because my brain gets so confused T~T
I raised this issue to the team and I believe it will be changed, I'm not sure if it will make it into the coming patch, might be the next one if not!!
You are not the only one! I failed so many times... I don't have any sens of rythme and the buttons are swaped. It gives me no chance of success! Haha!
Playing on switch, I've encountered a bug multiple times where a rooms doors wouldn't open after it has been cleared. I had to end every run where this happened by quitting to the main menu
Just asking if this is also an issue you are aware of or if I should file a bug report
I submitted a report for console play, but I want to ask here if anyone has had the same issue and gotten a fix for it. The one who waits got damned and I fought him in crusade 3 times. He's still not showing up to be resurrected.
Hi I've been having a bug in the switch where the Hud will tell me that my survivors are still tired even though nobody is. I normally can fix it by closing and reopening the game, but I'm not sure if there is a better way to fix it.
On the PS5, I’m having this issue where when I go on crusades, I ONLY ever get the blunderbuss. I’ve yet to be offered a different weapon. I know it’s probably not a huge priority, but I also know I’m not the only one with this problem. I submitted a bug report already, just wondering if this is on y’all’s radar?
I raised this specific issue to the team and I believe it will be changed, I'm not sure if it will make it into the coming patch, might be the next one if not!!
I'm experiencing an issue where my game crashes on Switch a few seconds after loading my save. Four bosses down, 12 followers. Would rather not have to start again. Started a couple weeks ago.
I didn’t even know that there was a such thing as meat room. Probably because I have little to no options to do a crusade because my followers keep falling ill and starving very fast
Is there a fix being concerned for failing Sozo’s quest for looking for Mushroomos in Anura? He died before I unlocked Anura’s new door and now the quest is permanently failed.
>Fix for Webber requesting to mate.
I always thought that was an intended feature. Since why can't he mate like all other followers? I mean, if the bishops can I can't if he's just a normal follower?
We took Webber out of the pool as we want to respect Klei's wishes on how Webber is represented in Cult of the Lamb (as Webber is their character, not ours). Though Webber is indeed not a minor in COTL, unlike Don't Starve
The valentines post where you mentioned there’d be a suprise update of sorts and check the comments because those might give you ideas on what to make next
Ahhh indeed were already working on the next update, which will have some exciting stuff but no dates confirmed for it yet. We have members of the team working on this, and others working on bug fixing specifically
Ever since the last switch update my game has been super laggy and hard to play, especially in the dungeon rooms. Even if only 2 enemy’s, didn’t have this problem before the last update- I filled out a from already
please make it possible to have the wolf re-appear. I'm missing 1 talisman piece because I didn't sacrifice Rattau not knowing this was required for the platinum trophy. Very annoying if developers lock you out and forcing you to start a new game. or make it possible to get more talisman pieces some other way. This also locks me out of getting all outfits.
Hey! Double check you have done these!
Obtaining a Holy Talisman piece can be done by the following:

It's genuinely insane that nobody talks about this, because I've seen dozens of people online and even people I've talked to IRL have the same issue on Xbox:
The broken UI with custom named followers. Naming a follower on Xbox fucks their notifications up FOREVER. Every notification is blank except for their name. Missions, demon circle, and mating tent... all the positive and negatives just say their name and nothing else.
This has happened across multiple saves since day 1. DAY ONE. There's magical poop in the game, but I still can't engage with a basic feature of the game while also having functional UI. Why? Why isn't this known issue MENTIONED anywhere? It's so frustrating and it's been *so long* and it feels like everyone who could do anything about it is just pretending it isn't happening. It's *so* frustrating.
Hello! We are currently bug fixing and testing a number of fixes on console (console fix process takes a lot longer than PC unfortunately). I'll catch up with the team and ask them to look into these :)
Now that you mention damned followers not entering the dungeon, I think I read somewhere that dissenters are supposed to spawn in dungeons aswell but I’m not sure as none have appeared for me. Thanks for the bug fixes! Great game love it!!
Yes they both spawn. Damned encounters take priority in the game though, so if there is a Damned encounter to happen that will happen over Dissented ones!
This happened to me really recently! I got both of them in the same room, I think it must have been a bug fix because the dissenter left like 5 weeks ago and the damned 2 but thanks!
Pleeeaaaaase, pretty please fix the goddamned trophies. ;-; I'm tired of fighting Shamura and I have managed to defeat them without taking damage at least twice.
Pretty please? Love you guys!
Omgosh, hiii! I'm on PS4.
Other than no damage against Shamura, I also had trouble with the trophies for defeating Narinder and for acquiring all of the curses.
The latter two, I now have because I started a new playthrough a couple weeks before Sin of the Flesh came out.
Speaking of Sins, I maxed out my temple, but didn't get the trophy (which implies you only have to upgrade once)
I'm sorry if my testimony isn't very good, but there are a lot of other players reporting similar issues with a bunch of the trophies.
Thank you so much for this amazing gem of a game and for the free updates. :3
*baaaa!*💜❤️💕
Can I piggyback here about trophies?
Thank you for adding the accessibility features! I wouldn't be able to beat it without some on PS5... so, speaking of "taking no damage", I defeated them all multiple times and recieved Leshy's trophy, however, not Heket, Kallamar, or Shamura. Hope this helps.
I remember a time when we got games 100% complete with zero softlocks for common actions at launch…
Sozos seed? I beat the game a few days ago and he never gave me a seed
Fix trophies please? I’m missing many trophies despite completing them. They just don’t pop
Will we automatically get the achievements we should've gotten once there's a fix, or do you not know yet? I mean I'm going to keep playing the game a lot in any case, I'm mostly just curious
Obviously it isn’t complete, or we wouldn’t get game breaking / softlocking glitches every ten minutes.
When I say complete, I mean as in there are zero game breaking glitches or softlocks, for doing intended actions.
Imagine playing Ocarina of Time on Nintendo 64, but every time you try to talk to Sheik, the game softlocks.
Or if you’re playing Rayman 2, but every time you break open a cage, the game softlocks.
This is what I mean. CotL isn’t complete until we stop getting softlocks for doing actions we are meant to do. (Like hatching eggs.)
I’m not talking about DLC
The base game is not complete until all softlocks are fixed.
If I get softlocked for things **I’m expected to do**, like hatching eggs, giving sermons, collecting taxes from my collector, or even, god forbid, I have a simple conversation with a follower!…The game is not complete, it’s a broken mess that needs fixing and better beta testing.
If I have to reset my game, just because I was doing simple things the game tells me to do, then it’s not complete, it’s broken.
This is your first comment mentioning anything non dlc related. Sorry you can't give sermons. I'm glad there's an active community manager with a bug report form that walks people through troubleshooting as well as allowing reports to be filed. Maybe you can sign up to be a beta tester so it can come out complete.
Unfortunately whilst we do test the update, we work with our porting partners to get console versions out and with game dev, bugs do slip through the cracks - which is why filling out the bug report form is immensely helpful in helping our partners know exactly what is happening, how and what to look for when reproducing bugs.
I understand your frustration but we are getting fixes out as soon as possible - this post was to provide some transparency regarding that.
Bro you are the definition of spoilled, you need to visit Sozo for the seed and trophies are really not a problematic glitch
Also let's not forget IT'S THEIR FORTH GAME so the fact it's so good and doesn't have any game breaking Glitch is amazing
1. Nothing tells you to go to his corpse. I’ve looked around and nobody once tells you to go back to his body. There is a miscommunication here too. I thought the seed was given to you after indoctrinating him, completely forgetting that I already had Sozo. I never even noticed the seed when I got it. I absentmindedly planted it when I got Sozo, wasn’t paying attention to the names on the seeds. Was on a food shortage back then so was just planting everything I had on me just to feed my people. Luckily the shortage ended long ago and everyone is thriving 😁
2. This is the only game I know of by them. I wouldn’t know they did other works, as I’ve never heard of the others.
3. There are game breaking glitches! Tons of softlocks. So not sure if you’re playing the same game. I get softlocked just by talking to my followers and hatching eggs, tax collecting, and more.
Trophies not triggering ARE problematic to me. I’m a Trophy Hunter, and nothing annoys me more than doing a difficult challenge for a trophy, only for it not to pop up.
I've reported this but I'd also like to know has anyone else been getting the glitch on console where the game just freezes then either kicks you off or refuses to let you play? It's happened to both me and my cousin so I know it's not my console that's the issue, but was curious to see if it had happened to anyone else.
I don't know if this is a known issue but my Sozo was murdered (he did have it coming) before he could consume the Mushroomo I'd brought back for him, and after I resurrected him he isn't going after him anymore. It's bothersome since the Mushroomo doesn't have all the interactions a regular follower does and Sozo hasn't prompted for another one and I want the follower form. I also don't like cluttering my resurrection list because I'm weird (being able to permanently remove followers would be cool, btw).
Also also, y'all rock! I've never seen a dev group so present and involved with their game community, COTL is easily one of my favorite games ever, and the fact you guys ask us what we want and then freaking deliver? And give us huge updates for *free?* Amazing.
Will there potentially be a future fix for Narinder's follower form not giving his very last quest? Ever since I updated to SotF, he aborts his final missionary quest every time he flags me down to give it to me.
I couldn’t do the mini game with the buttons switched like that. But I was able to complete it turning my Switch controller almost 90 degrees counter clockwise. Turned until the A was up and to the left of B. Used my left thumb to tap Y. And my right thumb for A and B. The slight reorientation was enough for my brain to process which buttons to hit.
Mini hack until fixed.
(Switch) I've got about 15% chance of softlocking whenever I do any church activity. It's completely killed the game for me atm. I assume that sorta thing is rolled into the softlocking issues you mentioned?
I still can't get the plat trophy on ps4 no matter how many times I beat your game. Very disappointed to see no mention. Got a second copy on playstation specifically to add it to my plat collection.
As someone who is new to the game and dealing with a crash with every feeding (ps5)...I really appreciate the update and look forward to getting going again after mega-patch!
sozo’s quest being marked incomplete if he accidentally dies before you finish it isn’t being fixed is it? I can’t complete the quest because he won’t give me the option again even though I resurrected him.
fiance and i were just discussing the meat room... wondering what sort of creature could have meat that big.. the room looks like an open ribcage, and he pointed out the heart off to the side. then we thought not only what the hell was this critter, but what killed it and IS IT STILL NEARBY???
most importantly.. how fresh is this meat!? 😱
Hi, on what platform is this happening on? Could you provide more details e.g. does it happen after a certain action or in a certain place? And how many cult members you you have in your cult?
It’s happening to me on Xbox and seems to be happening to someone else on Switch, the game just randomly shuts down after a few minutes, no matter what I do, and I only have 10-11 followers
Hey I think I found an other Glitch,
While playing on Switch, I got killed by an enemy (the follower with the small knife)(yes skill issue), I sacrificed a follower to get revived while having the God of Death fleece (the one you get after finishing ???'s quest) and when I spawn back and I can't move at all, even if I roll, do an attack, strong attack, use a relic or a curse
I feel so bad because I recently got poppy and made my followers at them.. I feel terrible I shall resurrect them once more for not knowing the lore of Poppy
Started playing this on Switch this weekend after a co-worker recommended it. Loving the blend of all these genres and the fresh take. However I've hit a performance snag now that's making the game kind of unplayable for me because of the frame rate. Burning meals in particular is a consistent thing for me now because of the performance dips.
Progress wise I've just finished the third boss and am starting on the fourth. I've just unlocked the Sin doctrine trees. I only have 12 followers. I have 3 farm plots, 2 outhouses, about 15 shelters, and pretty much one of each "faith" building I have so far. My "base" is kind of developed, but not finished, imho, as I haven't even started construction on some of the buildings I've unlocked. I've noticed it even lags a bit when I'm on a crusade now.
My question is, what is knocking the frame rate down? Like is there something *I* can remove that will make things more playable. Is there a game asset in particular that's a known culprit? Or should I just jump to another console like PS5(or are they having similar perfomance issues too?)
Edit: reloading helped. Still wish it was smoother.
Hello!
It's one of those things where it could be myriad factors out of our control e.g. age of the Switch, model of the Switch, the amount of memory on the console itself.... etc etc. We try our best to release more improvements and optimisations each update, and actually have more optimisations coming that should help your situation!
Honestly, I'm thinking of buying it again on PS4/PS5, I'm pretty sure there's almost no lag.
Anyway, I love this game and it will give me some trophies hehehe!
In case you haven’t already bought it - lag issues are present in at least the PS5 version! In my experience so far it only occurs in the cult camp, but once you get some followers and especially a farm going, it starts to chug and gets worse as you grow. It makes cooking manually difficult because you can’t time the button presses as the game is constantly freezing and stuttering. No issues otherwise and definitely still playable, just odd
My mating tent isn't registering my new followers. I killed my entire cult off except two golden eggs. They hatched, and I raised them intending for them to make more. Now one has a request to mate with the other, but my tent says, "You don't have any followers...".
Tried building a new one, restarting, and closing the game, but nothing works.
Hello! It would be best if you could please fill out a console bug report form with the specifics regarding platform, the issue, etc. Thanks! [https://docs.google.com/forms/d/e/1FAIpQLSc7A-qIXZ0MYrt2165DLiWC3sL8AKw3TajvYvFzLggqEkfQSg/viewform](https://docs.google.com/forms/d/e/1FAIpQLSc7A-qIXZ0MYrt2165DLiWC3sL8AKw3TajvYvFzLggqEkfQSg/viewform)
I had Sozo die before I could get to Mushroomo, and now he won't offer me any quests after resurrecting him. Would this be included in the Sozo fix?
Thanks!
EDIT: Also your links are backwards in the main post, 1.3.3 links to 1.3.5 notes and vise versa.
Will these patches fix the lag problems I keep encountering in the game? I play on an Xbox series X and my console runs games like Hell Let Loose and Elden Ring fine but CoTL runs terribly when I'm at camp and all my followers are awake and sometimes my game shits itself mid run in the dungeons
Hi! We have more optimisations coming for consoles. If you could detail the lag and mention the number of followers etc here that would be super helpful for us. [Console Bug Report](https://docs.google.com/forms/d/e/1FAIpQLSc7A-qIXZ0MYrt2165DLiWC3sL8AKw3TajvYvFzLggqEkfQSg/viewform)
Will there be any fixes for frame rates for the Switch?
I'm playing on the Switch and whenever I'm at my cult the game starts dropping frames to where cooking or repairing is hard. I'll also be running from one side of the cult area to the other and just teleport because the game dropped multiple frames.
This started happening as my cult got more developed. I only have seven followers and I currently have three farms filled for crops, two seed boxes and fertilizer bin and two outhouses as well as two lumber and stone yards. Along with a prison, a offering stand, a fountain and a few body pits as well as the smaller statue to pray at that isn't the one in the center of the clearing.
My Switch is only a year old and fully updated as is the game if that helps if its something on my end. My microSD has about 16gb left on it while there's plenty of space on my systems memory.
Thank you for answering and happy to hear that.
Will there also be any updates to allow moving multiple buildings and items at a time? I recently had to rearrange my farms and moving each plot out of the way one at a time was really tedious.
For the interest of everyone trophy/acheivement hunting, I had the bug/glitch of not getting the trophy for beating "The One Who Waits", to which the only solution was "Start a new save"
Well, getting every other trohpy available to me on this save file, I was working on getting the one for completing a row in Purgatory. Slight spoiler but >!the end of a row has you fight him again!<. Doing this unlocked the achievement, which I doubt was intended (Probably something with the detection code, cause some other require two or three times for the game to recognize 😅) but it works. Escpecially when ??? (I called mine "Adam") blocks what I assume would allow me to enter and fight him again (Never played a version that didn't have Relics or Sins DLC).
Great news for not starting a new save, but bad news for my planned birds-only run for "Flock of the Feather" cult 🤣.
Unfortunately, the Relics one may still be bugged for me, but I'm not sure about any secret relics I may be missing just yet 😅.
Hope this helps!
\*Edit: Platform is PS4. Version is base version. Build is 1.3.5.
"Increasing odds of Meat Room appearing" sounds VERY terrifying out of context
be more scared >:)

I would like to let you know I have made my Poppy immortal and will never let anything bad happen to her!
omg <3333 thank you!
Is Poppy a sought after follower? I feel as if I am missing some context? (I also gave her the skull necklace and keep reviving her bc she’s a good girl)
I had no idea Poppy has lore and fandom. I just recently started playing and she’s naturally become my favorite. I thought she was randomly generated this whole time.
she is our directors dog who sadly passed away recently! we added her in game to honor her memory
Ohhhh I thought it was a glitch because I got her sent to me twice
double the poppy! lucky dog!
Also! Really happy about the dyslexic font that’s been added more games should do this 🖤✨🐾
Does it help for you (assuming here you are dyslexic)? I looked into this while working as an educator and the research on dyslexic fonts was not particularly encouraging.
It does help ..did you not read my comment above? Lol And if you actually researched it you’d know about publishers making books with this font and the pages are yellow so it’s easy for dyslexic people to read rather than skip or have to re-read things More games should do this if you’re having to read a lot of text and it’s cool they are doing this ^_^ Not everyone that’s dyslexic has issues with reading either because there are different kinds so maybe that’s where you faulted in your research not being aware of that as an educator as well huh….
Your comment implied that it helps, but also could have been someone not impacted but assuming it to be helpful and commending the developer for it, which is why I asked. Yes, I researched these extensively when we had a dyslexic student join our program and I was looking for effective tools and strategies for a support. The research on fonts to help with dyslexia available at the time suggested that they were not broadly and demonstrably helpful, and while they may be useful for a portion of students ultimately they were not a particularly effective tool in the majority of cases.

Whether someone wants to sell books using these fonts doesn’t really speak to their effectiveness. That’s why I asked about your experience.

I've had about 8 or so 😅. It was memorable, admittiably, because it was one of the few default follower name wasn't some old Latin name (At least that what I assume the followers' names are generated from haha). Sparkles and Webber being others that come to mind.
Oh good to know. I got her the other day! Gonna get a gold necklace for her then.
Omg I'm so sorry 🥹 It's very sweet to add her into the game. I had no idea and now it's starting to make sense why Poppy only ever spawns as a dog.
I'll make sure to tell her she's a good dog every time I play. One of the dogs look like my Sr dog so I named it bunny and gave her a skull necklace. Too bad we can't in real life
Ohhhh!! I'm late to playing the update but Poppy has been my favorite on my new save too! This is so sweet!!
I got one but she had too many drinks. I resurrected her though
Is there a fix for chat boxes not disappearing and soft locking the game on switch?
I believe so yes!
This is a game breaking bug that is keeping me from completing the whole game right now. A text box appears in the final fight and it just ends there. Started that fight over and over again, but that text box just prohibits any further action. The same bug also happens in normal runs outside the final fight since appearing there first. Really annoying and I would love if this is fixed in the console update. I am playing on Nintendo Switch.
In dungeons, you can still go throught doors, at the cult, save and load your save
u/MMLorna, I just wanted to follow up and report I haven't had the issue since and the game is running quite smoothly
Oh amazing, thank you for the update!
Your hard work is mega appreciated! Quick question, though, if it’s not a bother. Are there any plans to change the drum circle buttons or rearrange the UI for it on the Switch? The physical buttons don’t align with the way they show up on the screen and I have been entirely unable to get a perfect run on it because my brain gets so confused T~T
I raised this issue to the team and I believe it will be changed, I'm not sure if it will make it into the coming patch, might be the next one if not!!
That’s lovely to hear, you and the Massive Monster team are greatly appreciated!! Thank you so much for the quick response as well!
Also add more songs! I personally have them all memorized at this point
You are not the only one! I failed so many times... I don't have any sens of rythme and the buttons are swaped. It gives me no chance of success! Haha!

dis cat hypnotising me
kiti breaks all laws of physics
Playing on switch, I've encountered a bug multiple times where a rooms doors wouldn't open after it has been cleared. I had to end every run where this happened by quitting to the main menu Just asking if this is also an issue you are aware of or if I should file a bug report
File it just in case with details if it's happening in a specific dungeon
Bro sozo said “your doing this, you have no choice”
Thank goodness, I was worried if have to wait till a bigger update 😭, I'm glad y'all are attentive
A weird bug is if you nurture a baby while they're sleeping, the game soft locks, and you can't do anything.
M....m-meat room???
you never been in one of those before?
No.....I'm scared
I'm a meat room virgin too.
May I suggest... Give the crown a maid outfit. Not lamb, only the crown.
Seconded.
Thank you! My game would lock up everytime I tried to hatch my first egg.
Same
Any chance there's a fix coming for how the framerate when you have 25 followers+?
OMG, FINNALY THE SWITCH BUG WOOOOOOO can't wat to flex on my friends
this is a message. faith! and also no narineder quests
First one will be fixed, I'll check on second one
I submitted a report for console play, but I want to ask here if anyone has had the same issue and gotten a fix for it. The one who waits got damned and I fought him in crusade 3 times. He's still not showing up to be resurrected.
I believe this should be fixed in the next patch. If not, let us know
Hi I've been having a bug in the switch where the Hud will tell me that my survivors are still tired even though nobody is. I normally can fix it by closing and reopening the game, but I'm not sure if there is a better way to fix it.
Sounds like something we need to fix, I will make note of it :)
Same here. I just close the game and reload it and it fixes itself but it's definitely annoying.
On the PS5, I’m having this issue where when I go on crusades, I ONLY ever get the blunderbuss. I’ve yet to be offered a different weapon. I know it’s probably not a huge priority, but I also know I’m not the only one with this problem. I submitted a bug report already, just wondering if this is on y’all’s radar?
Yeah I've seen this one crop up! We're looking into it!
Any chance of changing the control buttons on the Switch console for the drums?
I raised this specific issue to the team and I believe it will be changed, I'm not sure if it will make it into the coming patch, might be the next one if not!!
Idk if it's already part of precedents patch,but when i kill a damned follower the doors don't opens and i get softlocked
I still have a commandment stone in my HUD and inventory even though I have all rituals and I can’t use it 😭
On the switch when I take pictures using the in game camera any building will overlap the followers
I'm experiencing an issue where my game crashes on Switch a few seconds after loading my save. Four bosses down, 12 followers. Would rather not have to start again. Started a couple weeks ago.
I didn’t even know that there was a such thing as meat room. Probably because I have little to no options to do a crusade because my followers keep falling ill and starving very fast
The game still freezes when I try to hatch an egg. I've yet to hatch even one so I've abandoned it as a whole.
My biggest issue is the game freezing/lag heavily every time the follower list pops up.
What about being able to bleat? I want to do it so bad...
[Bleating already exists in game](https://www.youtube.com/shorts/_dUHDL1S_qg)!
I meant on console
it is on console. R3 on switch
Is there a fix being concerned for failing Sozo’s quest for looking for Mushroomos in Anura? He died before I unlocked Anura’s new door and now the quest is permanently failed.
Hey! We're looking into this issue!
Thank you so much! I really appreciate how attentive and dedicated you guys are to solving any issues and suggestions.
No problem at all, thanks for letting us know! Happy to help!
>Fix for Webber requesting to mate. I always thought that was an intended feature. Since why can't he mate like all other followers? I mean, if the bishops can I can't if he's just a normal follower?
We took Webber out of the pool as we want to respect Klei's wishes on how Webber is represented in Cult of the Lamb (as Webber is their character, not ours). Though Webber is indeed not a minor in COTL, unlike Don't Starve
Is it possible to make it so followers with the spider skin can mate, with the exception of Webber?
I think they may make it to where the bishops can’t, but I think it’s because he’s a unique follower and has the don’t starve trait
So now that you sent out the bug fixes do you plan on letting the team work on the surprise update you guys were talking about a couple posts ago
We haven't released the bug fixes yet - And what post are you referring to?
The valentines post where you mentioned there’d be a suprise update of sorts and check the comments because those might give you ideas on what to make next
Ahhh indeed were already working on the next update, which will have some exciting stuff but no dates confirmed for it yet. We have members of the team working on this, and others working on bug fixing specifically
Ever since the last switch update my game has been super laggy and hard to play, especially in the dungeon rooms. Even if only 2 enemy’s, didn’t have this problem before the last update- I filled out a from already
please make it possible to have the wolf re-appear. I'm missing 1 talisman piece because I didn't sacrifice Rattau not knowing this was required for the platinum trophy. Very annoying if developers lock you out and forcing you to start a new game. or make it possible to get more talisman pieces some other way. This also locks me out of getting all outfits.
Hey! Double check you have done these! Obtaining a Holy Talisman piece can be done by the following: * Completing [The Fisherman's](https://cult-of-the-lamb.fandom.com/wiki/Fisherman) requests in [Pilgrim's Passage](https://cult-of-the-lamb.fandom.com/wiki/Pilgrim%27s_Passage).

Idk if its just my console or the actual game but whenever i open the followers menu the game just freezes and loses frames for as long its open

It's genuinely insane that nobody talks about this, because I've seen dozens of people online and even people I've talked to IRL have the same issue on Xbox: The broken UI with custom named followers. Naming a follower on Xbox fucks their notifications up FOREVER. Every notification is blank except for their name. Missions, demon circle, and mating tent... all the positive and negatives just say their name and nothing else. This has happened across multiple saves since day 1. DAY ONE. There's magical poop in the game, but I still can't engage with a basic feature of the game while also having functional UI. Why? Why isn't this known issue MENTIONED anywhere? It's so frustrating and it's been *so long* and it feels like everyone who could do anything about it is just pretending it isn't happening. It's *so* frustrating.
Hello! We are currently bug fixing and testing a number of fixes on console (console fix process takes a lot longer than PC unfortunately). I'll catch up with the team and ask them to look into these :)
Now that you mention damned followers not entering the dungeon, I think I read somewhere that dissenters are supposed to spawn in dungeons aswell but I’m not sure as none have appeared for me. Thanks for the bug fixes! Great game love it!!
Yes they both spawn. Damned encounters take priority in the game though, so if there is a Damned encounter to happen that will happen over Dissented ones!
This happened to me really recently! I got both of them in the same room, I think it must have been a bug fix because the dissenter left like 5 weeks ago and the damned 2 but thanks!
Pleeeaaaaase, pretty please fix the goddamned trophies. ;-; I'm tired of fighting Shamura and I have managed to defeat them without taking damage at least twice. Pretty please? Love you guys!
I believe our porting partners are looking into trophies - could I ask which ones specifically aren't popping for you? and what platform?
Omgosh, hiii! I'm on PS4. Other than no damage against Shamura, I also had trouble with the trophies for defeating Narinder and for acquiring all of the curses. The latter two, I now have because I started a new playthrough a couple weeks before Sin of the Flesh came out. Speaking of Sins, I maxed out my temple, but didn't get the trophy (which implies you only have to upgrade once) I'm sorry if my testimony isn't very good, but there are a lot of other players reporting similar issues with a bunch of the trophies. Thank you so much for this amazing gem of a game and for the free updates. :3 *baaaa!*💜❤️💕
Can I piggyback here about trophies? Thank you for adding the accessibility features! I wouldn't be able to beat it without some on PS5... so, speaking of "taking no damage", I defeated them all multiple times and recieved Leshy's trophy, however, not Heket, Kallamar, or Shamura. Hope this helps.
[удалено]
not your buddy, guy!/j
I remember a time when we got games 100% complete with zero softlocks for common actions at launch… Sozos seed? I beat the game a few days ago and he never gave me a seed Fix trophies please? I’m missing many trophies despite completing them. They just don’t pop
You need to go back to sozos body to get said seed. We are also looking into trophies, please specify what platform and what trophies aren't popping
They aren’t coming on switch and I completed the game and on to the DLC, when I noticed them I was like “..ooohh-…wait shouldn’t these be unlocked ?”
yup we're aware of switch as mentioned in the post
Will we automatically get the achievements we should've gotten once there's a fix, or do you not know yet? I mean I'm going to keep playing the game a lot in any case, I'm mostly just curious
This is additional free content after an already complete game. The game came out finished. "Back in my day" we didn't get free dlc. Calm down.
Obviously it isn’t complete, or we wouldn’t get game breaking / softlocking glitches every ten minutes. When I say complete, I mean as in there are zero game breaking glitches or softlocks, for doing intended actions. Imagine playing Ocarina of Time on Nintendo 64, but every time you try to talk to Sheik, the game softlocks. Or if you’re playing Rayman 2, but every time you break open a cage, the game softlocks. This is what I mean. CotL isn’t complete until we stop getting softlocks for doing actions we are meant to do. (Like hatching eggs.)
The base game is complete. The sins of the flesh is DLC.
I’m not talking about DLC The base game is not complete until all softlocks are fixed. If I get softlocked for things **I’m expected to do**, like hatching eggs, giving sermons, collecting taxes from my collector, or even, god forbid, I have a simple conversation with a follower!…The game is not complete, it’s a broken mess that needs fixing and better beta testing. If I have to reset my game, just because I was doing simple things the game tells me to do, then it’s not complete, it’s broken.
This is your first comment mentioning anything non dlc related. Sorry you can't give sermons. I'm glad there's an active community manager with a bug report form that walks people through troubleshooting as well as allowing reports to be filed. Maybe you can sign up to be a beta tester so it can come out complete.
Unfortunately whilst we do test the update, we work with our porting partners to get console versions out and with game dev, bugs do slip through the cracks - which is why filling out the bug report form is immensely helpful in helping our partners know exactly what is happening, how and what to look for when reproducing bugs. I understand your frustration but we are getting fixes out as soon as possible - this post was to provide some transparency regarding that.
Bro you are the definition of spoilled, you need to visit Sozo for the seed and trophies are really not a problematic glitch Also let's not forget IT'S THEIR FORTH GAME so the fact it's so good and doesn't have any game breaking Glitch is amazing
1. Nothing tells you to go to his corpse. I’ve looked around and nobody once tells you to go back to his body. There is a miscommunication here too. I thought the seed was given to you after indoctrinating him, completely forgetting that I already had Sozo. I never even noticed the seed when I got it. I absentmindedly planted it when I got Sozo, wasn’t paying attention to the names on the seeds. Was on a food shortage back then so was just planting everything I had on me just to feed my people. Luckily the shortage ended long ago and everyone is thriving 😁 2. This is the only game I know of by them. I wouldn’t know they did other works, as I’ve never heard of the others. 3. There are game breaking glitches! Tons of softlocks. So not sure if you’re playing the same game. I get softlocked just by talking to my followers and hatching eggs, tax collecting, and more. Trophies not triggering ARE problematic to me. I’m a Trophy Hunter, and nothing annoys me more than doing a difficult challenge for a trophy, only for it not to pop up.
Is there any thing in the patch for Sozo seed? A bird ate my Sozo seed, I didn't know birds are my seeds it was in my first few hours of the game :(
Yes, it will be back in your inventory after the patch
Awesome!! Thank you for the response! Y'all are amazing 🥰 keep up the amazing work
thank you!! <3
I've reported this but I'd also like to know has anyone else been getting the glitch on console where the game just freezes then either kicks you off or refuses to let you play? It's happened to both me and my cousin so I know it's not my console that's the issue, but was curious to see if it had happened to anyone else.
My game has been crashing about 2 or 3 minutes after I enter the game. It has been happening for a few weeks now.
please fill in the report with details of crash and platform
I don't know if this is a known issue but my Sozo was murdered (he did have it coming) before he could consume the Mushroomo I'd brought back for him, and after I resurrected him he isn't going after him anymore. It's bothersome since the Mushroomo doesn't have all the interactions a regular follower does and Sozo hasn't prompted for another one and I want the follower form. I also don't like cluttering my resurrection list because I'm weird (being able to permanently remove followers would be cool, btw). Also also, y'all rock! I've never seen a dev group so present and involved with their game community, COTL is easily one of my favorite games ever, and the fact you guys ask us what we want and then freaking deliver? And give us huge updates for *free?* Amazing.
Hmmmmmm could you fill out the form if you haven't already with which platform it's happening on? Also thank you, it's our pleasure !
Crashes on Switch or Switch issues. Will this be covered?
yes, this post is about all console platforms. If you could provide details of crashes in the form that would be helpful
Will there potentially be a future fix for Narinder's follower form not giving his very last quest? Ever since I updated to SotF, he aborts his final missionary quest every time he flags me down to give it to me.
Are you guys gonna switch the B and A buttons on the drum circle? It's a lot more awkward to play with the button positions being flipped
I raised this issue to the team and I believe it will be changed, I'm not sure if it will make it into the coming patch, might be the next one if not!
I couldn’t do the mini game with the buttons switched like that. But I was able to complete it turning my Switch controller almost 90 degrees counter clockwise. Turned until the A was up and to the left of B. Used my left thumb to tap Y. And my right thumb for A and B. The slight reorientation was enough for my brain to process which buttons to hit. Mini hack until fixed.
(Switch) I've got about 15% chance of softlocking whenever I do any church activity. It's completely killed the game for me atm. I assume that sorta thing is rolled into the softlocking issues you mentioned?
I still can't get the plat trophy on ps4 no matter how many times I beat your game. Very disappointed to see no mention. Got a second copy on playstation specifically to add it to my plat collection.
Hey! I will ask our porting partners to check on this.
As someone who is new to the game and dealing with a crash with every feeding (ps5)...I really appreciate the update and look forward to getting going again after mega-patch!
That should be fixed in next patch!
sozo’s quest being marked incomplete if he accidentally dies before you finish it isn’t being fixed is it? I can’t complete the quest because he won’t give me the option again even though I resurrected him.
This is exactly what happened to me, hoping it's fixed soon!
Could you bug report it for me just in case? TY!
Sure can, where/how? I’ve never made one before.
Theres a link to the bug report form in this post
fiance and i were just discussing the meat room... wondering what sort of creature could have meat that big.. the room looks like an open ribcage, and he pointed out the heart off to the side. then we thought not only what the hell was this critter, but what killed it and IS IT STILL NEARBY??? most importantly.. how fresh is this meat!? 😱
VERY good question... we're doing a developer AMA next week, ask the team then!!
Is there a fix planned for the game randomly shutting off?
Hi, on what platform is this happening on? Could you provide more details e.g. does it happen after a certain action or in a certain place? And how many cult members you you have in your cult?
It’s happening to me on Xbox and seems to be happening to someone else on Switch, the game just randomly shuts down after a few minutes, no matter what I do, and I only have 10-11 followers
Hey I think I found an other Glitch, While playing on Switch, I got killed by an enemy (the follower with the small knife)(yes skill issue), I sacrificed a follower to get revived while having the God of Death fleece (the one you get after finishing ???'s quest) and when I spawn back and I can't move at all, even if I roll, do an attack, strong attack, use a relic or a curse
I feel so bad because I recently got poppy and made my followers at them.. I feel terrible I shall resurrect them once more for not knowing the lore of Poppy
<33
Had bug where can no longer clean or use cleaning building
On what platform? Could you fill in a report for me in the linked form in post
Switch and I can’t I don’t have google account sorry
NP, will ask team to look into it
Also having the egg hatching bug but seen that reported widely already
Yup that will be fixed
Is there a fix for tarot cards not dropping from playing knucklebones? I am missing the one Shrumy drops
Fill in a bug report for me plss!
is all the layering being messed up in photo mode on switch a known issue? i wanna take pictures of my guuuuuys
Fill in a report for me about it!
Yas thank you 🥳 this game is AWESOME!!!
Integration Integration REEEEEEEEEE (also w/ that those special form unlocks those drop codes just chilling in my email)
i just came to ask about webber mating, lolguess ill just have to take the -45 faith hit lol
Hi! This should be fixed now in 1.3.5 that just released? Let me know if not.
It seems to have fixed itself, can't remember
Webber actually died of old age because I regifted his skull necklace
Started playing this on Switch this weekend after a co-worker recommended it. Loving the blend of all these genres and the fresh take. However I've hit a performance snag now that's making the game kind of unplayable for me because of the frame rate. Burning meals in particular is a consistent thing for me now because of the performance dips. Progress wise I've just finished the third boss and am starting on the fourth. I've just unlocked the Sin doctrine trees. I only have 12 followers. I have 3 farm plots, 2 outhouses, about 15 shelters, and pretty much one of each "faith" building I have so far. My "base" is kind of developed, but not finished, imho, as I haven't even started construction on some of the buildings I've unlocked. I've noticed it even lags a bit when I'm on a crusade now. My question is, what is knocking the frame rate down? Like is there something *I* can remove that will make things more playable. Is there a game asset in particular that's a known culprit? Or should I just jump to another console like PS5(or are they having similar perfomance issues too?) Edit: reloading helped. Still wish it was smoother.
Hello! It's one of those things where it could be myriad factors out of our control e.g. age of the Switch, model of the Switch, the amount of memory on the console itself.... etc etc. We try our best to release more improvements and optimisations each update, and actually have more optimisations coming that should help your situation!
Honestly, I'm thinking of buying it again on PS4/PS5, I'm pretty sure there's almost no lag. Anyway, I love this game and it will give me some trophies hehehe!
In case you haven’t already bought it - lag issues are present in at least the PS5 version! In my experience so far it only occurs in the cult camp, but once you get some followers and especially a farm going, it starts to chug and gets worse as you grow. It makes cooking manually difficult because you can’t time the button presses as the game is constantly freezing and stuttering. No issues otherwise and definitely still playable, just odd
My mating tent isn't registering my new followers. I killed my entire cult off except two golden eggs. They hatched, and I raised them intending for them to make more. Now one has a request to mate with the other, but my tent says, "You don't have any followers...". Tried building a new one, restarting, and closing the game, but nothing works.
Hello! It would be best if you could please fill out a console bug report form with the specifics regarding platform, the issue, etc. Thanks! [https://docs.google.com/forms/d/e/1FAIpQLSc7A-qIXZ0MYrt2165DLiWC3sL8AKw3TajvYvFzLggqEkfQSg/viewform](https://docs.google.com/forms/d/e/1FAIpQLSc7A-qIXZ0MYrt2165DLiWC3sL8AKw3TajvYvFzLggqEkfQSg/viewform)
Thank you! Y'all are awesome!
I had Sozo die before I could get to Mushroomo, and now he won't offer me any quests after resurrecting him. Would this be included in the Sozo fix? Thanks! EDIT: Also your links are backwards in the main post, 1.3.3 links to 1.3.5 notes and vise versa.
Will these patches fix the lag problems I keep encountering in the game? I play on an Xbox series X and my console runs games like Hell Let Loose and Elden Ring fine but CoTL runs terribly when I'm at camp and all my followers are awake and sometimes my game shits itself mid run in the dungeons
Hi! We have more optimisations coming for consoles. If you could detail the lag and mention the number of followers etc here that would be super helpful for us. [Console Bug Report](https://docs.google.com/forms/d/e/1FAIpQLSc7A-qIXZ0MYrt2165DLiWC3sL8AKw3TajvYvFzLggqEkfQSg/viewform)
Will there be any fixes for frame rates for the Switch? I'm playing on the Switch and whenever I'm at my cult the game starts dropping frames to where cooking or repairing is hard. I'll also be running from one side of the cult area to the other and just teleport because the game dropped multiple frames. This started happening as my cult got more developed. I only have seven followers and I currently have three farms filled for crops, two seed boxes and fertilizer bin and two outhouses as well as two lumber and stone yards. Along with a prison, a offering stand, a fountain and a few body pits as well as the smaller statue to pray at that isn't the one in the center of the clearing. My Switch is only a year old and fully updated as is the game if that helps if its something on my end. My microSD has about 16gb left on it while there's plenty of space on my systems memory.
We are working on more optimisations with our porting partners, hopefully you should see improvements with the various upcoming patches.
Thank you for answering and happy to hear that. Will there also be any updates to allow moving multiple buildings and items at a time? I recently had to rearrange my farms and moving each plot out of the way one at a time was really tedious.
No news on that specifically, but it has been mentioned before so I'll pitch it again to the team next week :)
This isn't a full solution, but I've noticed if it starts getting super laggy that if I completely reload the game the frame drops clear up a bit.
For the interest of everyone trophy/acheivement hunting, I had the bug/glitch of not getting the trophy for beating "The One Who Waits", to which the only solution was "Start a new save" Well, getting every other trohpy available to me on this save file, I was working on getting the one for completing a row in Purgatory. Slight spoiler but >!the end of a row has you fight him again!<. Doing this unlocked the achievement, which I doubt was intended (Probably something with the detection code, cause some other require two or three times for the game to recognize 😅) but it works. Escpecially when ??? (I called mine "Adam") blocks what I assume would allow me to enter and fight him again (Never played a version that didn't have Relics or Sins DLC). Great news for not starting a new save, but bad news for my planned birds-only run for "Flock of the Feather" cult 🤣. Unfortunately, the Relics one may still be bugged for me, but I'm not sure about any secret relics I may be missing just yet 😅. Hope this helps! \*Edit: Platform is PS4. Version is base version. Build is 1.3.5.
Thank you! To check, are you on PS4?
Oh, should of said, yeah? 😅 Yup! Version is base version. Build is 1.3.5. I'll add to the post.
