Welcome to the Patch 1 changelog for the Home Invasion Release! This document provides a comprehensive summary of the latest updates and outlines our future objectives. The detailed notes for Patch 1 are presented below:
In response to the launch of our inaugural DLC, we’ve attentively reviewed the substantial feedback from our community. Our aim is to address the most critical issues outlined by our players. Over the course of two patches, we’ll focus on two primary areas: performance enhancements and the integration of DLC1 maps into Commander Mode.
Patch 1 prioritizes performance improvements. Among the addressed fixes, FSR3 functionality has been restored, resolution scaling issues rectified, texture streaming glitches on new maps resolved, and several specific performance areas have improved. Further details are provided in the changelog below.
Patch 2 will tackle the limited availability of DLC1 maps. Currently, Home Invasion maps can be accessed in Multiplayer and Practice modes. Patch 2 will extend these maps to Commander Mode.
Initially, we intended the DLCs to offer a standalone experience within a separate section of Commander Mode. However, feedback from the Home Invasion release highlighted that this segregated approach limited the full potential of Commander Mode.
A detailed changelog for Patch 2 will be made available upon its release. Without further delay, here are the notes for Patch 1:
