Just as with any big release, you probably saw your Nvidia Experience tray icon flare up to let you know of a new driver update yesterday. Given the Valentine's Day release schedule, you can likely imagine what it was for - but there's a bigger picture to be had here.
With yesterday's release of For Honor following a record breaking 1.8 million PC beta testers before it, you can imagine the game isn't running perfectly for absolutely everyone. There's too many configurations.
But for those running into some very specific issues, Ubisoft is ready and waiting to offer up some quick fixes. For now, there's a fairly lengthy post up on the Ubisoft forums detailing light workarounds for general issues and some trivial fixes for bigger problems. One of which isn't even a fix - merely an acknowledgement that those still unable to boot the game with early TITAN X graphics cards contact Ubisoft with some detailed DXDiag reports.
For Honor Gets A List Of Changes Heading Into The Full Release
If you gamepad simply isn't firing up in-game, Ubisoft suggests pulling the plug on anything that isn't necessary to your immediate PC use - so cull your mouse, keyboard, dongles and, heaven forbid, your Novint Falcon and USB Christmas tree if that's an issue for you. Running into stuttering as an axe or other painful object rips into your body? They think it's tied to Bluetooth peripherals - so give that a shot.
The entire post basically ensures users that Ubisoft is aware and looking into these specific problems - but actual, hard-coded fixes aren't here just yet. Having any undisclosed problems yourself? Let us know, too!
