[Updated] Tiny Tina's Wonderlands 'Loot luck broken' & 'unable to join or invite friends in co-op mode' issues get acknowledged

Here’s the crux of the article in video form:

New updates are being added at the bottom of this story…….

Original story (published on March 28, 2022) follows:

Tiny Tina’s Wonderlands arrived this year as a new FPS game developed by Gearbox, the creators of the Borderlands saga. In fact, the game is a spin-off of the Borderlands series.

However, currently many players are facing issues related to the game’s co-op mode. Some are unable to join or invite friends in Tiny Tina’s Wonderlands co-op mode, while others experience a ‘Loot luck broken’ issue.

‘Loot Luck’ is a Tiny Tina’s Wonderlands gameplay mechanic that determines the rarity of the drops you get. The higher your Loot Luck stat, the more easily you will receive high rank drops (1, 2, 3, 4, 5, 6).

But, currently many players are facing a visual bug where their Loot Luck stat is greatly reduced while playing in co-op mode, affecting the rarity of drops (1, 2, 3, 4, 5, 6, 7, 8).

Co op loot luck has to be bugged

Played solo for a few hours yesterday and was getting legendaries at a normal rate, then my buddy joined for about 5 hours and I did not get a single legendary, but he was getting them from just about every mini boss.

Then the servers go down so I’m playing solo, and all of a sudden I’m getting legendaries at a normal rate again. Like the first mini boss I kill after he leaves I get a legendary.

Loot luck Co-op bugged

Either there is a display bug not showing correct numbers for Loot Luck. Characters was played with my friend from very start so all dice were found. In my own game it looks like I have correct numbers but in his game it shows MUCH lower numbers. He also gets A LOT more blues and purples, He has also found 3 Legendaries while I have found 0 tho all this may just be RNG.

That said, according to some players, resetting your stats works as a potential workaround to resolve the issue.

Some Tiny Tina’s Wonderlands players are also unable to join or invite friends to play the adventure in co-op mode.

Apparently, the player’s entire friend list appears ‘offline’ when trying to invite any of them. On the other hand, the player gets stuck in the menu when trying to accept an invite (1, 2, 3, 4, 5, 6, 7, 8, 9, 10, 11, 12, 13).

Menu and Social buggy

So I’m on Xbox One S, and having some issues, I can’t seem to join my friend who’s on playstation for one. Whenever I go to social and click join it soft locks me in that main menu. Whether I try it from the home screen or not (also don’t know how to accept invites that are sent to me -_- through shift).
