Felicia took another large swig from her third coffee of the day. She had been messing around in the server for maybe an hour and already had something to report. If this was a sign for things to come, she was not looking forward to the full launch of the game. But it was time to get her game face on. Felicia stretched out her arms, popped her knuckles, and got to writing her report to the devs.
Felicia double checked her info and refreshed everything to make sure that nothing had updated in the game since she started the report. Everything looked good so she sent the email off to the devs. Was she particularly surprised that Big Bee, aka Bryan Nautilus , aka her least favorite person was participating in the bug? Not really. After all, he was more concerned with the "players" than the actual game itself. She couldn't help but scoff. Typical. She was definitely planning on stealing his lunch later in the day to punish him for his crimes. But that wasn't for a few more hours. For now, it was time to get back to the game.
Hi there!
We have been receiving some odd reports about the scheduled raid on the Beta Islands. Initially there was some standard glitching of Kyogre (clipping through dunes, HP not staying consistent). Overall, that part of the raid was what we were expecting from this first run through of the raid as far as bugs go.
However, players started to report the glitching Kyogre and that’s where things started to go wrong. C0D13 was examining a known graphical bug at The High Tide Shrine (ampersand showing in text box) when it spotted the glitching C0D13. From what I’ve been able to gather, C0D13’s “bug deletion” protocol order was trigger and decided to delete Kyogre. While this alone is concerning, it looks like the pre-programmed Blue Orb instead transferred to C0D13, turning it into the failsafe Primal C0D13.
Primal C0D13 spawned with 10,000 HP and immediately started to attack players, starting with those C0D13 deemed as repeat offenders, based on who had previously reported "self-healing" or other health related bugs.
After some combat, C0D13 then performed replicate and sent out Mini_C0D13 programs to start deleting the Beta Islands themselves. From reviewing logs, it looks like C0D13 decided the entire Island was bugged.
For now the players are fighting against Mini_C0D13 programs at the respective locations around Beta Island while C0D13 searches for those it targeted last.
As for the volume of impacted players, twelve players have participated in the raid so far and all have seen C0D13 glitch out. Right now players are still able to join the High Tide Raid, so others may see this. I've included the player information just in case further details are needed from participating users. Note that Bryan is among the active players, along with several high profile users that are categorized as "VIP" status.

So far six bug reports have been sent to the C0D13 bug system, five of which came from user gamertag Furrlicity Purrfection and one from gamertag Kath Ulu. As these reports have been sent directly to C0D13, I assume that they have not been sent directly to y’all. Just in case, I’ve attached a doc containing the reports.
The team here hasn’t seen any reports made on the forums or social media, but we will continue to monitor and will flag any for further review.
For now I will continue to observe C0D13 and how the players respond to his attacks. Please let me know if there is any other specific information that you need me to gather.
Thanks,
