PikPok has pushed out a small but crucial update for Into the Dead: Our Darkest Days, addressing a frustrating bug that could trap players while barging through doors. Hotfix v0.8.2 ensures your desperate escapes and tactical entries won't end with you helplessly stuck in a doorway.
In a game where every second counts and a horde of undead is always on your heels, getting stuck is a death sentence. The door barging mechanic is essential for quick movement and creating space, so having it fail randomly was a major source of frustration for players trying to navigate the ruins of 1980s Texas.
No More Getting Stuck
The development team targeted this issue with precision, rolling out fixes for several specific locations where the bug was most common. Getting snagged on geometry during a scavenge run is a thing of the past in these areas, making them much more reliable to traverse.
Which locations are now fixed?
If you've been avoiding certain spots due to this bug, you can now add them back to your loot routes. According to the hotfix details, the door barging issue has been resolved in the following stages:
- Galaxy Zone Arcade
- Abandoned Kosyaire Factory
- Mitchum Powell Plaza
- Styx Arcade
While not a massive content drop, this kind of targeted fix is exactly what you want to see. It shows the developers are listening to player reports and actively smoothing out the core gameplay experience. A smoother run means you can focus on strategy and survival, not fighting the environment itself.
