  • “Through the Heart” Longbow Epic DMR skin

  • "Love of the Game" Pathfinder banner frame

STABILITY / BUGS / PERFORMANCE / QoL

• Various improvements and tweaks to UI.

• Extended timeout that was causing players with slower hard drives to crash.

• Addressed a number of client and server stability issues.

• Fixed exploit where you could keep duplicating items in your inventory.

• Addressed a number of stability and performance issues.

• Fixed issue where players would get a gray screen in lobby when connecting for the first time.

• Fixed issue where your friends list showed all your friends as offline and unable to party.

• Shortened duration of Bloodhound’s Eye of the Allfather clones to remain in the world by 1 second.

GEAR

• Arc Star now displays a grenade warning indicator.

KINGS CANYON

• Addressed a number bugs with map geo like holes you could fall through and areas that players could get stuck in plus a bunch of other polish issues.

PLAYSTATION PLUS PLAY PACK

• Art updated for the Playstation Plus Play Pack to the Flatline skin and Banner Card and changed the names to Deep Blue. This will affect all players that already have been rewarded the skins as well.

We still have a lot of work to do and we hear those frustrated by disconnects and crashes and are working to improve stability and performance as well as provide more visibility for everyone.

Good stuff. Can't wait to see what kind of new Legends you guys are going to create in the future.

Any plan to update the settings allowing you to choose which monitor you want the game to open on or be displayed on?

Really hope this fixes the performance issues with this game.

with a GTX 1070 and an I7 4790 and 16GB RAM I feel I should be hitting 100FPS without any dips, but the frame time pacing on PC is insanely erratic no matter what fps you lock to.

Having to play at 72FPS on a 144HZ monitor to avoid dips makes me sad...

U can just set that via windows, select monitor and make it main.

Going into display settings, changing primary monitor, opening the game, adjusting game resolution, going back into display settings, changing primary monitor again. Doing all that just to launch the game makes it unplayable, especially when it seems to be such a simple fix considering pretty much every other game out there has that option.

Just tried running a few games with some friends; Still getting plenty of freezes/crashes on menus & during gameplay with AMD FX 6300 multi-core. Turning off cores 5 & 6 is still the solution for getting rid of the crashes, but after the patch, doing so definitely made an impact on performance.

Really love this game but it's so hard to play when it's so unstable.

TOO MANY HACKERS!

[salteddemon]

any word on the random crashes and a rejoin game button for those suffering from crashing? (Crashed twice today for no reason out of 6 games)

FIXES!

PROGRESS!

COOKIES! . . . maybe
