Hey,

We heard your feedback and have implemented a checkpoint before the boss battle.

This should be in place when we next patch.

We haven't forgotten about this one and a fix is in place.

We are just waiting for the next title update to implement the change.

Thanks for that. We will investigate if there are any general issues. From a first glance it seems that your connection to the servers always has a very high ping which might cause matchmaking issues for you.

If you are using a VPN try turning it off and if you have very strict firewall settings that might also help. While we will look further into it on our side as well it's probably best to reach out to support.ubisoft.com to go through some tech steps to reduce latency.

Sorry you feel that way. It's true though, sometimes I do get a bit spicy and phrase things poorly.

That's accurate. To clarify, my responsibilities and those of my team are to make content (online media, not in game content) such as streams, videos, podcasts etc.

I'm always here for quality memes. Well played XD

(Of course, this doesn't mean I'm saying issues with the game aren't incredibly important to solve and we've got a lot of work to do)

Hey, thanks for the report. Can you DM me your Uplay name, please? We made several changes a few weeks back and it seems to have fixed the majority of matchmaking issues. With your account info we can look into where you are getting matchmade into and so on.

We have the fix for it but we need to wait for a patch to implement this.

In the mean time I can only thank you for your patience.

Agents, as we talked about on State of the Game #153 we are trying to give you some timelines on the issues we are currently working on and when we expect them to go out. As said on the show our studio is mostly working from home which has an impact on how quick we can create these fixes and have them tested and deployed.

We are planning to release Title Update 8.5 to deploy further fixes in early April and are currently looking at the following changes:

Bug Fixes
  • Fixing an issue causing graphic issues and crashes on PC due to corrupted shader cache files.
  • Fixing an issue causing the loss of the “Striker’s Gamble” stacks or not being able to acquire them.
  • Fixing an issue causing agents to be unable to revive team mates.
  • Fixing an issue causing the League UI to completely reset.
    • The League challenges will still reset for week two which will allow players to continue their progress.
