Gun Interactive has confirmed a fix for Texas Chain Saw Massacre's latest Victim is on the way.

Addressing players via its social media channels and the game's subreddit, Gun revealed that issues regarding Virginia's skill tree and her unlockable cosmetics should be resolved when the patch rolls out on 16th April.

That's not all the team detailed, either. Gun Interactive says it's now fixed – albeit only «in testing» for now – a handful of pressing bugs, including Family members being unable to be door stunned, Danny's inability to tamper anything, and Sissy's OP poison permeating through wall gaps, crawl spaces, and barricades.

The 8th Edition of The Muerto Times is live on our subreddit discussing Danny's Tamper, Sissy's Poison, and Leatherface's rev exploit.

A couple of other issues are under investigation, too – chiefly Virgina's Boon and Bone Scraps where if you use her ability on Nugget, it will incorrectly use a bone scrap and the «Leatherface Rev Exploit» wherein Leatherface can bypass door stuns if he revs in a very particular way – but as yet, there's no fix.

Issues interacting with Grandpa and animation bugs when dealing with traps and snares require more information, so if you come across anything like that, the team invites you to let them know here. Make sure to provide any videos, images, and all details you have, so the teams has «all the data needed to properly investigate».

Several fans, however, have conveyed their continuing frustration with lobby times, something I brought up way back when the game was launched.

«I'm sorry but this is so disappointing. Lobby times is one of the biggest issues right now and it's not even addressed here,» said one subredditor in a comment that's had almost 200 upvotes. «I refuse to play Victim anymore because I just don't have the patience to wait around 5-10 mins between games.

»And then when I play Family, if one family member leaves, it won't fill. Which forces me to quit back to lobby and then further screws over all the victims that waited five minutes just for the family to disconnect as soon as the lobby starts.

«Lobby wait times is going to be the biggest reason you can't get any new players to stick around,» they added. «How will anyone have the patience to learn this game if they have to wait so long between matches and
