Paladins Issues Reports

Latest outage, problems and issue reports in social media:

  • BloatedDumpling sleepy-eyed 🧛otter 🤭 (@BloatedDumpling) reported

    @PaladinsGame We would say "its not paladins if it doesnt crash at least once", but that was our paladins. We still had fun, if not more fun, because of the bugs. The bugs got better over time, your team worked hard to improve the gameplay experience with such tight hardware constraints.

  • SEFBDragon Sam (@SEFBDragon) reported

    @KryptekDev Is it possible for plans to make adjustments for Paladins to run on Steam Deck? From what someone told me the only issue is the anti-cheat the game uses isn't supported on Steam Deck. I only ask cause my laptop sucks for Smite and Paladins and I'd like to play again.

  • PurringPinkette Maeve (@PurringPinkette) reported

    @Mowolu @PaladinsGame I'm not personally affected by it, as I haven't really played it on Switch. :x Still sad to see them making this decision. I just hope, the resources they save on the Switch developement from now on, will help improve the issues the game has in general :x

  • visoredavenger visoredavenger (@visoredavenger) reported

    @OsCarrinhos98 @HeyImSpoopy @PaladinsGame It can run Overwatch 2 it may be 30fps but it was well enough. Hi-Rez just refused to get in and fix the game's memory leak.

  • Dragon_Lynx_ Tai || COMMISIONS OPEN (@Dragon_Lynx_) reported

    @AgrumeMusic @PaladinsGame Yes! I totally agree! As switch player, it worked okay. Like, yeah, it crashed a few times BUT IT WASN'T UNPLAYABLE. I played it to calm down and with that, I could do something together with my best friend. Now they are taking it away. Idc about champions, just fix it

  • tratragamer lovetratra (@tratragamer) reported

    @NTBees @PaladinsGame Over watch just don’t have these problems that paladins have lol

  • spikeddogcollar caid (@spikeddogcollar) reported

    @NTBees @CausticCorro @PaladinsGame I actually have a soft spot in my heart for this game but the lack of care for the glaring issues is apparent. what’s laughable is your defense of it, but I guess that’s how you make your money too.

  • Toko_Ruma Antoni (@Toko_Ruma) reported

    @NTBees @Labalakk @PaladinsGame They dropped play of the game bc they were too lazy to fix it, probably the same for switch, they are too lazy to fix the requirements for the game, they prefer adding content instead of fixing the game

  • pichu37630322 pcchuu (@pichu37630322) reported

    @NTBees @Miguel_AVPHL @PaladinsGame that's nonsense, switch has no issues with way bigger games than pala

  • SkaVorah 🩸Ska'Vorah🩸 (@SkaVorah) reported

    @Tobmoh I mean yeah, true but Paladins was having some issues from the start that were just getting worse over time. It was their decision to release the game on Switch, my guess is for quick $$. It was by far the worst experience from the start, they still went with it tho.

  • AgrumeMusic Jeremy | Agrume (@AgrumeMusic) reported

    @PaladinsGame You guys are actually removing the game on a platform while people were having fun on it. It would have been easier to maintain it the the base game was solid and not buggy as F. Please once for all : fix the game. I don't care not having a hero for 6 months if the game works!

  • CausticCorro CausticCorro (@CausticCorro) reported

    @spikeddogcollar @NTBees @PaladinsGame Lol dude white knighting he's all over the replys, there's no excuse, overwatch 2 runs fine on the switch and looks better, just dev diff, skill issue irl, hopefully they do this for smite as well, they just can't fix anything or don't care

  • TheRaulca25 Raulca25 (@TheRaulca25) reported

    @OlSantaJoe And paladins devs have always been like this. Instead of fixing the bug, they either create a workaround that will eventually bugged as well (lex slide issue, ash airblast cd, switch crashes, etc) Or either ignoring to the point where players get use to it.

  • TheRaulca25 Raulca25 (@TheRaulca25) reported

    @MadnessNX @PaladinsGame This is what happens when they ignored a problem that is still running on switch. I am not surprised though. They ignored the memory leak issue for more than 3 years... I've been playing this game since beta (2016 if Im not wrong) And I can totally say that paladins dev team (1)

  • LewLow00 LewLow (@LewLow00) reported

    @N30o_ It's not that the Switch isn't strong enough to run Paladins well, it's that the porting wasn't well optimized to perform well Do I need to remember you how well Monster Hunter Rise runs on the Switch? Not an hardware problem.

  • CausticCorro CausticCorro (@CausticCorro) reported

    @NTBees @PaladinsGame I'd tell you to make sure you brush your teeth after all that oral service you giving paladins but we both know EU people don't brush, get some knee pads since you down there sucking

  • TheRaulca25 Raulca25 (@TheRaulca25) reported

    @OlSantaJoe The issue comes when the switch problem was being reported since the 1st day it happened. And they decided to ignore, now they reached a point where everything got so messed up that as always and as it always happens on paladins dev team, they decide to remove (1)

  • DarkenteH 🚂Pedro "Darken"✨ (@DarkenteH) reported

    @NTBees @Labalakk @PaladinsGame guy Paladins is UGLY AS **** and should run in a PS3 if made by professional devs. You can't say this thing don't run when games like Overwatch 2 which are 4x more complex graphic-wise than Paladins run on that ****. It's pure Hi Rez SKILL ISSUE 💀💀🤡🤡

  • AgrumeMusic Jeremy | Agrume (@AgrumeMusic) reported

    @NTBees @Dragon_Lynx_ @PaladinsGame I understand you're a content creator and you want to defend your main game and revenues as much as you can, so you can't say something bad about hi-rez. But I find this really annoying that they always tend to avoid to fix issues than making the game better for everyone.

  • frizzlefry1313 Frizzle Fry (@frizzlefry1313) reported

    @NTBees @Labalakk @PaladinsGame Meanwhile all similar games have zero issues on Switch. You are just supporting this trash company like a tool.

  • AgathaUwUPower TrollitoFdez6 (@AgathaUwUPower) reported

    @NTBees @tratragamer @PaladinsGame bruh paladins is the problem not switch

  • JessieC7678 Master Wu (@JessieC7678) reported

    @NTBees @tratragamer @PaladinsGame The Switch is not the problem its Paladins itself I being a Switch player myself have absolutely zero problems from playing games like OW2, Apex, Fortnite, and DBD. Unlike Paladins where the game would crash over nothing. Same PC users and another console.

  • chloe__cant chloecan't (@chloe__cant) reported

    @PaladinsGame If the broken controller mapping isn't fixed by the time switch support is gone, it means I'm completely done with paladins. And I've been here since season 1.

  • TheRaulca25 Raulca25 (@TheRaulca25) reported

    @MadnessNX @PaladinsGame Is a total mess up. Spaghetti code everywhere (which is not bad per se), when a bug or issue happen they either ignore it (switch crashes) or delete it (lex issue). Which leads to bad feedback from the community. As a peron with a switch and pc account. This doesnt affect (2)

  • GqlaxyGirl Stårlight (@GqlaxyGirl) reported

    @OlSantaJoe However, I don't understand why at this point they haven't also closed Paladins for ps4 as it encounters numerous bugs and Sony has even closed the doors to cross progression. Ps4 is a very disappointing platform, the fps lag is mind boggling not to mention input lag and

  • ChrisBe02744570 🚂ChrisBe✨ (@ChrisBe02744570) reported

    @NTBees @Labalakk @PaladinsGame But the power of the switch isn't the only problem...the game even crashes and freezes on my ps5.

  • HeyImSpoopy spoopless (@HeyImSpoopy) reported

    @visoredavenger @OsCarrinhos98 @PaladinsGame They never said they “refused” to. You are just assuming they refused to because they are discontinuing it. I’m sure they tried to fix the bugs for Switch (the platform that had the most issues) but there isn’t much that can be done.

  • AgrumeMusic Jeremy | Agrume (@AgrumeMusic) reported

    @NTBees @Dragon_Lynx_ @PaladinsGame Live services tend to treat their customer like **** by making them pay more and more during years for just stoping their services and make people loose all the content they paid for. Don't find them excuses bro. Their service and technical management is horrible

  • spikeddogcollar caid (@spikeddogcollar) reported

    @NTBees @Labalakk @PaladinsGame holds back paladins? paladins looks like it was made for the switch. if overwatch can run on switch I see no issue.

  • SoulOverCaos Anonimo (@SoulOverCaos) reported

    @OlSantaJoe I've always heard nothing but complains from the switch community on how badly the game works, how it keeps crashing, among other things Seeing you making content, finding those "obscure paladins facts", finding ways to work around game issues... Honestly, i respect you for that
