I’m speaking on behalf of a friend with two problems with the game; One is only annoying, but the other makes playing the game very difficult.
1: My friend’s cosmetics reset any time he loads into a new area. It doesn’t matter what cosmetics or model he has on, he’s reset to a female with white hair and white clothes. It’s easy enough to change back to what he wanted to wear, but it’s still annoying.
2: Any time he attempts to make purchase of any kind, he is locked into the buying screen while it says it is “processing” indefinitely, and he needs to re-log in to play the game again.
As a note to the second fix i would recommend leaving the synchronization off for a while and go equip a workshop model and some wearables to make sure that steam detects that the files aren’t synchronized when the system is turned back on.
