We’re aware eliminated players cannot hear the Voice Chat of non-eliminated players during the Discussion phase in Impostors.
Battle Royale
Collection Book entries disappearing when using Performance mode.
Description
Collection Book entries may appear to be missing when using Performance mode. The progress is still there but not visually appearing.

Turn off Performance mode to see accurate Collection Book progress.
Vehicles may desync when a player exits the vehicle.

Some players may get teleported to another location upon entering an abandoned vehicle.
Creative

We’re investigating an issue with the Inflate-A-Bull in Creative.

Something named "Cube Town Corruption Spread" is set to start after downtime and build up until December 5th (when the season ends / event). Changes might not be significant now as it just started but we might notice something in a few hours/days!
