Lords of the Fallen Update 1.031 Patch Notes | LOTF Update v1.1.485 Patch Notes:

Greetings Lampbearers,

In this week’s update we have made another optimization pass, focusing on various enemy cloth mechanics to increase performance for lower-end systems. Additionally, we have also introduced multiplayer connectivity feedback and multiplayer indicators. These allow players to have greater insight into the current state of their online experience, with icons to indicate both ping rate and packet loss. And, as always through our own investigations and player reports, we have made a further 40+ tweaks to continue enhancing the game.

Please find today’s highlights below:
Cloth Optimization on Enemies – We’ve made several optimization improvements to the cloth mechanics for various enemies to increase performance for lower-end systems.
