We are working around the clock to bring you a patch in the coming days that fixes performance issues and a large number of reported bugs across all platforms. Our goal is to provide a quality patch that addresses many needs at once and is thus taking us a few extra days to perfect. Once the patch drops several performance issues you may have experienced will decrease significantly and the game will be enjoyed more fully by many more users.
The main bug fixes are listed below.
However, the team also provided some workarounds for common problems many gamers are reporting. You can take a look at them below.
Hopefully, these changes will dramatically improve the game sometime next week when the patch rolls out. However, sometimes these are delayed so it may hit a week or two later.
