Confirmed Changes in the 10 GB Patch

The update implements several specific fixes designed to lower system overhead and stop sudden stuttering during matches:
  • Reduced CPU Usage: Fixed high CPU usage during startup and eliminated extra system load caused by periodic audio processing during matches.
  • Audio Input Checks: Resolved unnecessary background checks for available audio inputs that were causing sudden frame drops and performance spikes.
  • Resolution Frame Drops: Fixed an issue where selecting certain display resolutions triggered frame rate drops.
  • Battle Settings Bug: Addressed a bug that caused customized settings and colors to revert to defaults when restarting the game.
  • Online Lobby Fix: Corrected an issue where mapping attack buttons to action icons made certain buttons unresponsive during open lobby mini-games.

Actions Required for PC Players

If you are playing on PC, the game will prompt you to warm up your shaders upon launching the updated version. Players should complete this process to ensure a smoother transition. Additionally, the update improves auto spec detection, automatically selecting a graphics profile tailored to your hardware system. While community feedback on Discord and social media indicates that many players are experiencing smoother frame rates and more stable online matches, others report that performance remains largely unchanged. Further work is ongoing to address performance issues for all configurations.
