Xbox
Issue: Game is crashing whenever trying to create teams from the friends list.
Trigger event: Whenever the friends list is selected by hitting down on the right stick, the game will crash within 1 minute.
Repro Steps:
See trigger event. Even when in a party with another person, simply hitting the right stick and then exiting will create the crash. You do not need to invite or hit anything else, simply the action creates a trigger that crashes the game without fail. This has caused Xbox team games (quick match & ranked) to be non-existent.
Please see this update from a dev below in Nov. 2024. The game has been broken for 3-4 season, with this fixing it for a period of a month before the game was hotfixed again, reverting the fix.
“The crashes on Xbox should be fixed by changes released today in Patch 12.1.2454. If this does not resolve the crashes, please open a new thread. Age of Empires IV – Patch 12.1.2454 - Age of Empires - World’s Edge Studio”
