FOR HONOR: Patch Notes V1.06

Connectivity Network Data exchanges between players are now more resilient to network fluctuations. Reduced the footprint of data exchanges to improve match experience under limited networking conditions. Performance Multiple performance improvements increasing the framerate both in game menus and during matches. The LODs (Level of Detail) on ambient FX are now dynamically adjusted during matches, when required, to help ensure optimal performance. [Bug Fix] Fixed a performance degradation when the XBOX One home panel was being opened which sometimes triggered a simulation resynchronization. Developer comments: We’ve established that in certain situations, when game performance drops below a certain threshold, the simulation could suffer and eventually halt and end the match because it has reached a point that is unrecoverable (often seen as errors 06000018 and 06000021). These network and performance optimizations were prioritized because they target area...
