◆Hotfix 7.0.5976◆



  • Fixed an issue where users on older Nvidia hardware were encountering a crash to a black screen at launch, or a “Failed to find a supported hardware rendering device” pop-up error.
  • Fixed an issue where some users reported seeing FPS drops, hitching, or lag during team and late-game matches.
  • We believe that reports of CPU usage should be remedied as a result of the Rendering change. Please reach out if you continue to see this.
  • Fixed a server connection issue that was causing pop-up errors when users selected Empire Wars in Custom Games (as well as several crafted maps and mods).
  • Fixed a crash that some users encountered on Tribute of resources.
  • The Stone Shore Ranked Monument reward is no longer missing for all Team Ranks.
  • The Surfboard Coat of Arms Sigil reward is no longer missing for Team Ranks Gold and above.
