Unstable
Reports of missions generally failing to appear, or complete and give rewards.
Avoid missions with high turn in requirements such as Wikelo.
Common issues with missions not appearing are either not in orbit of a planet or station, or in the system a particular mission is offered.
If a desired mission has a high number of players actively taking it, it may fail to appear as there are only so many that can be served at a time due to various constraints such as mission locations.
No recently reported issues.

Recently some players have found it possible to exploit the duplication of Wikelo Favors, and Bits.
It has been found possible to loot and remove items of gear from downed players despite being locked to the character.
It has been reported that some players have found a way to become invisible, or benefiting from desync to kill other players.
It is still possible to glitch through locked doors using containers.
CIG have enabled more features in EAC and are continuing to monitor possible exploits and duplications, issuing bans accordingly.

Info
Most of the issues in Star Citizen are server or game logic related and as such cannot be fixed by reinstalling the game, or your entire operating system.
This assumes in good faith that there is nothing technically wrong with the system you are running the game on.

24/7/2025 3:33 PM
List of current persisting critical and game breaking issues, potential workarounds.
Sometimes the game fails to load or report an error.
This is generally due to the game matchmaking assuming your affinity to one shard and trying to connect you, regardless of the one you chose and failing to do so.
Open the terminal with tilde (key commonly directly below ESC) and write r_displayinfo 1 to show diagnostic information.
You should see Entities increase while the game attempts to load.
If this number is increasing or at a high number, it means the game is currently succeeding in loading assets, but may need a few more minutes. Please wait for this until either it finishes, or throws an error.
If this number is 0, kill the game client and wait up to 15 minutes and then retry to join on another shard or friend as soon as the game allows.
Character Repair may work as it can potentially kick you from the game, but no evidence or guarantee that will.
5/30/2025 10:32 AM
Issue CouncilThe service responsible for keeping your progress and inventory including ships and items.
It is currently a known and long standing issue that in-game assets can disappear between patches. This is under investigation.
It is advised to ensure that your ships are stored properly, and not make any in-game ship purchases only a few hours before a patch.
Any pledged ships or items lost should be investigated via request with Customer Services.
Pledge or otherwise account bound items commonly return next patch.
5/20/2025 1:33 PM
Issue CouncilA very common issue that prevents access to the LIVE PU is the result of either not having, or accidentally melting Game Package with a pledged ship from the store.
It should be possible to use the Buy Back option, or another will need to be purchased to access the game again.
It may be necessary to completely log out first.
5/20/2025 1:33 PM
Issue CouncilThese can happen frequently and at random, and seem to be related to player activity.
As servers are now meshed and localised around each of the planets of Stanton and Pyro, and major stations in Pyro, if a server error occurs it will be limited to the area it happened.
For instance, if a server error happens around Crusader, those not around it are unaffected.
The server errors themselves should resolve quickly within a couple of minutes, however can take significantly longer.
It has been seen that recovery from a server errors will always happen, unless an error indicates that it couldn't.
5/30/2025 10:32 AM
Issue CouncilAt present it seems to take up to 15 minutes to release your player from connection to a shard before you can join another.
In some cases it seems to take significantly longer, as some players have reported being locked out for days.
There is no fix for this except for waiting, and trying again.
Character Repair has no provable affect on fixing this, but it does not hurt to try.

Very frequently the terminal used to check into a medical room is bugged, showing only Room 0.
There is no fix for this, but options are to have your own medical ship, or to set your imprint to the current station and backspace.
Not fixed as of 4.1.1
It is possible to suddenly experience suffocation, audible gasping, and a 'fire' icon appearing on the hud.
This is commonly due to having two helmets accidentally equipped at the same time, one physically present, the other in stowed state.
Remove the first helmet then use Alt+H to equip second helmet, or change undersuits. Not fixed as of 3.24
The game client seems to be abruptly freezing for a few seconds without warning, a bug previously observed from 4.1.1 PTU, potentially related to streaming content.
Appears to be related to streaming too many entities for system memory to allow, regardless of amount, causing a crash.
Alt+tab seems to sometimes wake it up.

There is no known reason for this issue beyond possible backend changes. The only possible workarounds are to get help of others players to take you elsewhere, or change shards. Set imprint elsewhere.
