PATCH NOTES 2.23.0
PS4: 1.4 Gb, Xbox One: 1.25 Gb, PC: 1.5 Gb
We want to take a moment to thank all of the players who made contributions to the For Honor Bug Reporter! Because of you, the team has scheduled or implemented fixes for 158 player-submitted issues since Year 4, Season 2.
Our Production and QA/QC teams appreciate your efforts in helping us continue to improve For Honor!
PAINT PATTERNS
- We have removed all forced paint patterns! All paint pattern slots in the hero customization menu can now be set to empty
REVENGE USER INTERFACE
- We have added the revenge gauge around players’ emblems, in the widget
Developer's comment: Knowing whether an enemy is close to having Revenge ready is important information to manage group fights efficiently, which was previously missing from players' widgets
RANKED
- We have increased the Ranked Rewards drop rates across the board
- This affects all the cosmetic rewards that you can loot after playing ranked matches
- Colors, Paint Patterns, Engravings and Symbols can now drop even if you lose a ranked match. Ornament drop chances have been increased, but they are still exclusive for winning matches.
- We have also updated the unlock condition for rewards and removed the reference to the seasons in which they were introduced, as some players thought these weren't available anymore
XP BOOST COST UPDATE
- We have reduced the cost in salvage to activate the XP Boost:
- 1st XP Boost of the day: 250 Salvage (from 500)
- 2nd XP Boost of the day: 750 Salvage (from 1000)
- 3rd XP Boost of the day: 1250 Salvage (from 3000)
- 4th XP Boost of the day: 2750 Salvage (from 8000)
- 5th XP Boost of the day: 5000 Salvage (from 15000)
- 6th + XP Boost of the day: 9500 Salvage (from 15000)
IMPROVEMENTS
- We adjusted the amount of time it takes for Players to gain control of their character's movement at the end of the opening cinematic across all Dominion maps
MAPS
Gauntlet
- The drop-bridge directly connecting Capture Zones A and C is now a non-lethal drop. A platform was added underneath
- The pit at Capture Zone C has been closed off and now allows navigation around it. The visual aesthetic of the room was altered to reflect this change
PODIUM
- The camera angle on the podiums has been updated to present a much more dynamic angle. Several podium locations across different maps have been relocated for better aesthetic framing
USER INTERFACE
- We have updated the rules for displaying joining/leaving game notifications to ensure you only get relevant messages:
- You will only get notifications about other players joining or leaving when the match is already in progress
- When leaving a match, you’ll only get a confirmation message that you left the session
- We have merged the direction icons in the move set to make left or right directions moves more readable
- We have added an option in Custom Match that allows you to deactivate the event content in your Custom Games
