PS5 - Game Master Pause/Save on Private Server

[Kean__1 0]

This is for PS5....

 

I may be missing something (I hope I am), but why can't I pause or save a scenario I try to create in Game Master on a private, Nitrado server like I can on a public Game Master one?  The options are simply not there like they are with the latter so I know it's possible.

 

Is this a bug, an excluded feature of private servers, something I'm overlooking or does anyone know a work-around?

 

I'm banging my head against the wall trying to figure something out.  It's it's omitted from private servers, I wont be renewing mine next month.  The main reason we bought the game was to create scenarios for our group t play.  Even without mods, I still have more flexibility with the scenarios I can create when paused than I can when it's always live.  ....and then the ability to save / reset especially when spending an hour or more on their creation. 

 

If this is not a feature, then will it be in the future.  ....and was it omitted in the first place?

....no one has a clue? I can't get an answer from BI after asking here, on X and even recently on a Q&A with one of the devs.

this forum seems pretty quiet these days and i've noticed on the discord i rarely get answers about issues with game master on ps5, i think we are doomed to suffer

it does sound like the only variable is how the server is set up between the vanilla server and your hosted one

i was planning to do exactly the same as you are in a month or so so if you find the solution please update it here.

I asked the same question of Klamacz (BI dev) during an AMA event recently.  He didn't know but asked me to submit a trouble ticket on the site which I did.  I noticed the status was changed from "New" to "Awaiting Internal Testing".

 

Yeah, I never had much luck getting feedback from BI with their DayZ game over the years (except for once to be belittled for a critical but clean post I made) so I didn't expect much different here.  I like their games but interaction is difficult to help resolve issues and/or get help.  ....even with long-standing issues like desynch with vehicles in DayZ which had plagued the game on PS (off an on) since it launched.  Contrast that with a game like Six Days in Fallujah where I can ask a question on their forum and have an answer within 24-48 hours from their community manager.

 

To be honest, I feel Reforger is in a much better state than DayZ but alas, something such as this problem I'm having is definitely disappointing as it limits what we can do on our server.

 

I am glad to see the night illumination issue has been addressed so quickly and that mods have been confirmed for PS5 release.  That in itself will be a literal game-changer if it models what they have on PC/XB.  I have to wonder if that is what might be indirectly affecting the save issue on our server?

 

In either case, my friends and I are having a blast so far in Reforger although we may to cancel our server until the mods become available and/or this issue is resolved.

Would like to know this also.

....doubt we'll ever get an answer.  Seems ridiculous that the option doesn't work on a rented server.  Klamacz didn't know when I aked him and I submitted it here for an answer as he suggested.  ....two months ago.
