In-game bug reporting tool with screenshots + automatic logs/metrics

Platform/Input: PC — Xbox controller

Request:
Add an in-game “Report a Bug” tool that lets players submit issues without leaving the game, ideally including:

  • One-button screenshot capture (and optional short clip)

  • A short category selector (UI / gameplay / co-op / crash / performance / etc.)

  • A small text field for repro steps

  • Automatic attachment of useful diagnostics, such as:

    • Build/version, platform, graphics settings

    • Current location/zone, quest state, seed/session ID

    • Recent console/log snippets

    • Network/co-op state (host/client, ping)

    • Basic performance metrics (FPS, frametime spikes)

Why:
It would massively improve report quality and dev triage (repro + context + telemetry), reduce friction for players, and help avoid missing information when reporting through the forum.

Hm, it’s probably an engine limit, but since you are asking for this, I will set up an inquiry.

There are some cases where it would be relatively hard to give proper repro steps.

A couple of examples:

  1. Initiating a trade session in coop Crucible will prevent a player from viewing overflowing Crucible perks (pressing “Right” on controller on the rightmost last visible perk). How come those things are even connected? But this is the best way I could reproduce
  2. If one player is in research or craft menu and another player is selling some items to another vendor at this time - item selection in research or craft menu is reset to category selection every sell transaction completed by another player

I could create bugs for these, but it would require some setup and videos, and with this utility it might be enough to auto-upload some logs which could help
