Decent, mad bugs though

More character customisation would be fun but not necessary! Looking forward to the bugs being fixed because I’m enjoying it so far. It resets my progress on a mission if it crashes though so… yeah the bugs that just crash the game are a bit much.

Pls add east coast USA

I live in va beach and am not that picky but please add a spot on the east coast of USA for when swells in the Atlantic please and thank you for the game

Fix the bugs PLEASE

[Update]
Since being on iOS 26, it does this less frequently. It still happens but it’s rare. Now on snapper rocks, im stuck on mission 2, for almost 1 year because even though the game shows me I caught much more air than necessary, the mission keeps saying I still need to do that air. This is tooo long for something to be broken
[/Update]

Im so sick of wasting Perfect Storms because of a silly bug that has been present for at least one year, probably two years. I’ve written to true axis support about this, a long time ago. Sometimes, when I try to open settings to change something (usually intending to turn off auto drop-in, or change the control sensitivity), rather than settings opening, a tutorial begins to play. When I choose to exit the tutorial (by saying yes, skip the tutorial) my Perfect Storm has ended. Even if I just started it several seconds before. This isn’t the only bad effect of this bug - it also resets my HUD settings, and other settings. Not ALL of them. It’s always the same group of settings that are reset. Im #%@!ing sick of it. I’ve even deleted the app, hard reset my phone and reinstalled it, which destroyed my progress, and did not fix the bug. iPhone 11, iOS 18.5. (But this bug has persisted since at least 17.0, maybe iOS 16 even. Im on the latest true surf update. Please help!

Thanks for your detailed response. Noted and we are on it.

Please read 👇🏿

I got this game about a year ago and played it for a long time because i was into surfing and learnt how to do things differently thanks to the game. I then got bored of surfing and the game because i think there should be a few things that would make the game more enjoyable and addictive. 1. Make a first person view, this will make the experience cooler and more realistic than looking from afar. 2. There should be a sandbox mode, u pick a location pick the time the size of the waves and more. U don’t have a time limit on it or any limits, u can also try boards and other equipment before buying to make sure u like it. Thank u for reading my review and i hope u take these points into consideration. 4 stars👍🏿

Thanks for your support. Have you tried the new first person mode? There is also an option to automatically switch to first person in the barrel. Also have you tried the new missions on historical epic swells?

Great game - Ruined by crashes

Amazing game. I have now completed the same mission 3 times with the game crashing and not saving the completion every time. Ruins the experience.
