Der Marathon rund um die Verbesserung von For Honor geht weiter: Wie Ubisoft angekündigt hat, steht die Veröffentlichung des Updates 1.06 unmittelbar bevor – zumindest auf dem PC soll das Ganze am Dienstag durchstarten. Wie üblich werden die Konsolen zu einem etwas späteren Zeitpunkt versorgt, dafür dürft Ihr Euch schon jetzt einen Überblick über die Änderungen und Verbesserungen im folgenden Patchlog verschaffen:
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 to help ensure optimal performance.
- [Bug Fix] Fixed a performance degradation when the XBOX Home panel was being opened which sometimes triggered a simulation resynchronization.
Session/Match
- Reduced the rematch timer from 90 to 60 seconds.
- Join-in-Progress can now be enabled at the end of the match. When we will activate it at a later date, players leaving the session may be replaced by new players, which will allow a new match to occur more frequently.
- [Bug Fix] Fixed a bug causing a session to split, during matches under certain conditions, leaving each player in its own session with bots.
Messaging
- Expanded resync messages to differentiate between simulation resynchronization and session migration when the host leaves.
Game operation
- Added server-side networking configurations to allow faster stability tweaking.
- Added monitoring of simulation edge cases to improve our ability to further diagnose certain types of problems.
Fight
Bleed
- [Bug Fix] Bleed should no longer be applied without contact.
Fighters
Peacekeeper
- Light Attack Miss recovery branching into Chained Light Attack delayed by 100ms.
- Chained Light Attack recoveries on Interrupt Block increased to 700ms (from 600ms).

- Uninterruptible Stance timing on fully-charged Shoulder Bash startup reduced by 100ms in order to match the revised Guard Break cancel timing.
- Cancelling Shoulder Bash into Idle now causes a 200ms recovery with no defense (Wardens used to cancel out of Shoulder Bash instantly into Idle).
- The fully-charged visual and audio effects, will now only play once the cancel window is closed.
- Non-charged Shoulder Bash recovery on Miss increased to 800ms (from 700ms)
- [Bug Fix] Fixed an issue causing the Warden to spin around on hit with Shoulder Bash
- [Bug Fix] Shoulder Bash ability to bump external target no longer overlaps with locked target

Orochi

Shugoki
