Homefront: The Revolution’s launch was, to say the least, messy and disappointing. The open world game held glimmers of promise, but they were lost behind far too many bugs and performance issues.
Still, Dambuster released several quickfire patches immediately after launch, and today’s 1.06 patch looks like it might help alleviate some of the performance problems, with optimisations to the lighting, animation and auto-save.
However, alongside this, there are two new maps for the game’s co-op Resistance Mode. As was promised prior to release, these are free additions to the game. ‘Three Birds’ sees you hunting down KPA Duster drones that are terrorising civilians, while ‘Triage’ has you trying to recover vital medical supplies.
The change list for the patch is as follows:
- Resistance Mode Map Pack #1 – 2 new missions, titled “Triage” & “Three Birds” are included
- Fix for missing map icons in Ashgate
- Fix for a vehicle blocking the SAM launcher convoy
- Performance optimisation on the mini map
- Save stall optimisation
- Autosave disabled on revive
- Animation performance optimisation
- Lighting optimisation
- Vehicle creation optimisation
- General bug fixes in Resistance Mode
- [PC] Fix for multiple binded keys being changed
- [Xbox One] Achievement fix for ‘Oh A Piece of Candy’
