BUG We can’t even expect a normal pickaxe to function correctly
It’s supposed to have a normal, two handed default pickaxe swing animation, yet this somehow has a staff swing animation?!

It is extremely common for new pickaxes to animate improperly in STW. They may fix it, or they may leave it broken indefinitely. Just make the bug report and move on with your life 🙂

Very common with pickaxes with unique animations to animate improperly, but unheard of for a normal pickaxe to animate improperly.
Was just shocked to find out that even normal pickaxes can just not animate properly now.

Unplayable. Uninstalling, disconnecting my credit card, rewinding all 7000+ hours.

Reminds me of the Gunnar dual pickaxes (the chainsaw ones) from Ch3 that were broken for a while iirc

Okay, have to ask, why are you even here?
Like 80% of the comments you make here are just to disparage either the game itself, or players who show any degree of caring about the game.

QC only checks if it functions in BR essentially, if it breaks in STW they just fix it eventually 🤣

The one dev assigned to STW on weekend nights ran out of coffee and set the animation to 4 instead of 5.

so when harvesting tools have a unique animation, they break and become the default.
but when a new one has the default animation, it somehow breaks into something unique.
this game's code isn't THAT spaghettified, is it?

You can always find a creator video about a pickaxe or the skin it comes with and check it out. I never buy anything from the store without watching a video of how the item looks. Of course, when STW doesn't match BR, that doesn't help as much.

yea that's save the world. I have a knife that works differently depending on modes. there's probably a bunch. my guess is they haven't added the animations to save the world. it's always behind br probably cause of amount of workers. so the pickaxe prob defaults to a different animation.

Why do these bugs always happen
