JamesPotku Posted December 14, 2012 Share Posted December 14, 2012 Bug SubmissionPlease choose a category [Gameplay] PlatformSteamVersion Number - Issue title XP counter stuck! Steps to reproduce Start a new game, play for a while, get yourself killed in any way and look at the game over screen. Describe your issue So I was playing Don't Starve for about the 4rd time, when I died and noticed that the xp bar didn't do the "counting" of the xp that it normally does after dying. It simply displayed the message "Xp: 370"."That's a bit weird, same amount I got last time." I thought. Anyway, after playing for a while and surviving 16 days with the Firestarter character, I finally died and yet the xp counter didn't count up at all, and simply displayed "Xp: 370". I asked my brother what could be causing this, and he said that maybe I have to play with Wilson, the scientist, to get more Xp. I thought it was a bit weird, but it made sense. So then I started testing with Wilson, sometimes surviving for a long time and using the research machine as much as possible, and sometimes just for 0 days and killing myself to spiders. The xp counter never changed. I tried to verify the integrity of the game cache via steam, didn't fix it. Uninstalled and reinstalled the game, nothing. Still stuck. One last thing was, I thought maybe it would fix itself with the new "Naughty and Nice" update, but it didn't. So finally I decided to submit this bug so you could maybe help me. The thing is, I haven't seen anyone else complaining about this, so I'm still wondering if it's just my computer doing this.. Either way, I wish it can be fixed somehow so I could finally unlock that 3rd character hiding behind the immovable xp counter.

neo_child Posted December 14, 2012 Share Posted December 14, 2012 I have the same problem.I lasted 100 days before killing myself on my 1st game. I reached the 5000 XP cap and it was stuck there the next time I died. I can't unlock the last character due to this. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Artem Posted December 14, 2012 Share Posted December 14, 2012 Same, but I think that's the way how it is for real at moment. There's no next character yet. Just my thoughts. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
JamesPotku Posted December 14, 2012 Author Share Posted December 14, 2012 Same, but I think that's the way how it is for real at moment. There's no next character yet. Just my thoughts.Yeah I did read something like that as well, apparently someone had theirs stuck at level 4 and couldn't unlock the 5th character because there wasn't one yet, but the problem is I'm stuck at level 2 and can't get the 3rd one. And I know there are now at least 5 characters in the game, I checked the wiki. Latest one, the 5th one was added with the newest update. So something isn't right..
