MOB Whispers in the Walls: Update 35.1: Hotfix #7

MOB Whispers in the Walls: Update 35.1: Hotfix #7

While we are calling this a hotfix, it is actually a small CERT* update. Depending on your Automatic App Update preferences, you may need to manually update the app.

Launcher Change: We have added a popup on the launcher page that redirects players to the App Store when a new version of Warframe is available. Following this update, you will see this message when an Update or Hotfix: “New Version: A new version is available, please visit the App Store to update.”

*Learn more about what this means in our Warframe Lexicon for Updates.

Optimizations:

We have made significant improvements to load / stream times when transitioning from towns to Open Landscapes / hubs to missions (specifically the locations listed below).

• For Open Landscapes, this includes transitioning from Cetus to Plains of Eidolon, Fortuna to Orb Vallis, and the Necralisk to Cambion Drift.
• For hubs to missions, this includes transitioning from the Chrysalith to Zariman missions via the elevator and the Sanctum Anatomica to Albrecht’s Laboratories missions.

It’s worth noting that while load times have been reduced for all iOS devices, the exact time will vary based on your hardware. That said, we will continue to look into areas where performance could be improved on iOS. Thank you!

Changes:

• Added a “Max Framerate” toggle under Video settings in the Options Menu.
  • Players can set their Max Framerate to 30 HZ, 40 HZ, 50 HZ, or 60 HZ.
    • Naturally, higher framerate will demand more of any device and impact battery life. Choosing a lower framerate will have less of an effect if you are looking for more sustained battery life.
  • Note: Players can also toggle the pre-existing Quality Preset, GPU Particle Quality, as well as Advanced Video options to achieve the best settings for their device and play preferences. 

Fixes:

• Fixed an issue with initial install progress pausing and resetting on the launcher screen.
• Fixed an issue with touch screen controls where the squad overlay could become unresponsive if a mission was selected without interacting with the Star Chart.
  • This could occur if someone else in the squad started a mission vote before you opened the Star Chart, or if you chose a mission from anywhere besides the Star Chart, such as the Syndicates Screen.
• Fixed a disappearing audio bug.
• Made several stability fixes to address reports of crashing on the initial launcher screen.
