    Nerf low FPS kick

    I keep getting kicked from my games because of low FPS. If nobody mentioned this before (which I highly doubt), getting kicked for no FPS, which only affects you, and not getting kicked for high ping, which makes the game more confusing for all involved, makes absolutely no sense.

    Also, the time frame for low FPS kick is way too short. My processor does this thing where it gets overloaded for 20-30sec, and in this period I get 20fps at most. Obviously I get kicked, but since this issue would have resolved itself in another 10 seconds, I feel that this is very disruptive, frustrating, and unfair. Please fix this.

    Quote from Ubisoft:

    For Honor requires a consistent framerate above 30 frames per second. If you receive this error message, you were removed from the match due to high input latency.

    The easiest way to fix this is to reduce your graphics settings to ensure a consistent framerate above 30 frames per second. You can view your current framerate with the help of the Uplay Overlay (Shift+F2).


    Quote End.



    My Answer:
    If you can’t ensure a FPS count of 30 then might consider updating/ replacing parts of your pc or buying a new one.

    Problem is, my computer can usually run For Honor well above 30fps just fine. But every 15-20 minutes or so, something happens to my processor, an it is under 100% load according to task manager. This only lasts 30 seconds. So I'm getting kicked every 2-3 games for a problem that lasts 30 seconds and solves itself, in a game where there is no option to rejoin. I'm not saying remove the FPS kick, I'm saying up the time threshold a bit.

    You're right. They should not kick you for something that only affects you.
    I'm also a bit shocked they still let high ping players stay in a lobby.

    Try if this happens if you play on lower resolution / low render and also low video settings (fullscreen) and compare.
    Also check if this happens in duel mode or on large map like breach mode.
    Could be related to low video memory issues. Better check what causes this CPU overload and check if it happens in other games.
    If you are recording or auto broadcasting it could affect performance.
