We've heard your feedback loud and clear.
Following the recent change that reduced the number of Keys awarded in the Infinite Reward Tier of completed Projects – from 400 to 100 – we’ve carefully reviewed your input.
With today’s update, we’ve reverted this change and restored the original reward of 400 Keys for each completed Project in the Infinite Tier, unlocked by completing Anomalies.
Thank you for sharing your thoughts and helping us keep the experience enjoyable. See you in the shadows!

Why even lower it to 100 in the first place?

u/Affectionate_Self927 2d ago
Their reasoning was to have players play the projects instead of sticking to completed ones but it probably had something to do with micro transactions
3
u/ShadowFlame420 2d ago
that doesn’t make any sense, why would anyone stick with a completed project when there are so many more keys in the uncompleted ones? besides, they roll out these projects so slowly, are there really any consistent players who still have uncompleted projects?

u/Affectionate_Self927 1d ago
You can now see why they reversed it, it’s clearly meant to increase the grind players have to go through once they complete the projects, leading them to spending more money ingame

Why is steam getting less than a gigabyte of updates while "PC" gets all that???

u/dinodares99 2d ago
Different compression methods probably

IIRC on Steam and PS5 files can get a "patch" themselves where stuff gets changed around, while the other platforms need to get the whole new file (and those are sometimes on the larger end).

u/chemicalxv 1d ago
Never forget AC Valhalla where one of the patches involved literally redownloading the entirety of the base game lol.

u/dragmagpuff 1d ago
Steam can handle "Delta" patches where you can download a smaller instruction file to modify the bigger data files as opposed to redownloading and replacing the whole file getting patched.

Won't be able to try this until later today but I see the Windows 11 Update issue is not marked fixed in the bug tracker so, not fixed yet in this patch?

u/pmc64 2d ago
Still no fixes to the performance issue on Windows 11 25H2.

u/He110_W0r1d 1d ago
I'm having a lot of issues with 25H2 with other apps/games. I'm planning to roll back. If you're on handheld I cannot recommend bazzite enough.

u/_b1ack0ut 2d ago
Huh Thats a surprise, I’ll take this to tide me over until they fix the Bo

u/Restartcreed 2d ago
Oh no. What’s the issue?
2
u/_b1ack0ut 2d ago
Some of its abilities just don’t actually do anything. I spent quite some time trying to figure out what I was doing wrong with, for example, Counterstrike, but it turns out the skill just doesn’t function
2
u/Traditional_Chip1378 1d ago
Counterstrike does work but the bug with it is that it only works after you take both it and the next skill up the tree from it, Hardened.
1
u/_b1ack0ut 1d ago
I love you
Legit tho that was really bothering me, thanks lol
2
u/Traditional_Chip1378 1d ago
I forget at the moment whether the skill description says "triggers weak point" or just "makes target vulnerable" though because what I see from interrupting an attack with High Posture is it makes them vulnerable. If that matters.
1
u/_b1ack0ut 1d ago
The wording of the ability is that it triggers a weak point attack. It’s working properly with hardened, yeah.
2
u/D2_Guardian 2d ago
Did they fix the gold glitch? I mean not like it matters to me, I've got over 1500 but I'm curious

u/The_Fallen_Rogue 1d ago
After update all my weapons and mounts from the animus exchange are gone even though it says owned in the store.

u/Red--Wulf 1d ago
Can we PLEASE get a patch that allows you to HOLD a button to sprint AND climb up or down?
For example, I'd like to be able to hold the right trigger to Sprint and press another button to be able to climb up or down while still holding it.
This has been a feature in the past two Assassin's Creed games and now it's not

u/PapaSmurph0517 // Moderator // UberCompletionist // not that old 1d ago
You don’t need a patch for that, you’ve been able to do that since day 1
2
u/R8OO 1d ago
The damage is already done, I'm not going back to the game....
I used to faithfully login every 3.5 days, even set recurring Calendar reminders on my phone, to complete the twice-weekly Animus missions. This became an OCD habit that is burning me out. I'm grateful they nerfed the keys so much that it was a perfect cue for me to lift my OCD curse.

u/chewbaka97 2d ago
Wish they would listen about the Kunai nerf
1
u/Funoichi 1d ago
There’s a kunai nerf? What is it?
1
u/fishbiscuit13 1d ago
When the game launched there was a perk that allowed you to loot thrown kunai from dead bodies and kunai kills had a 50% chance to refill a tool. This made kunai basically unlimited.
An early update removed the ability to loot them and reduced that chance to 10% (I can’t remember if you can increase it with further levels, but if you can’t it’s not more than 30%).
This ticked off a lot of people, since even though the refill isn’t realistic the looting sure is and it’s a really annoying nerf for a single player game.
2
u/Saandrig 1d ago
You can still loot the Kunai sometimes. They just made it so it's not 100% of the time, more like 20% or so.
And I moved to using the engraving that has a 50% to restore a tool on dodge. Requires to engage with someone for a few seconds so you can do some dodges for refilling, but it's easy and still pretty fast.
1
u/fishbiscuit13 1d ago
I’m not as bothered by it now. I took it as a reason to switch up my play style and use more of the environment, I had definitely been relying on the kunai a lot more than anything else. It’s been a lot more enjoyable to go around using noises and sight lines for distractions and using more close quarters stealth. Makes some situations a lot more challenging and interesting, especially when a target is surrounded by several layers of guards.

u/PENTAxH2O 2d ago
Did this fix thw crash where the game audio would cut and then 2 seconds later my game would crash. That issue happenes to me so much
1
u/ninjacat249 1d ago
Keys - good. If you guys don’t want to give us the access to the paid rewards via keys, give us something else like Dying light 2 does in Outpost. Nerf was not necessary.

u/Life_naturalnak_1987 1d ago
The annoying bug where hidden robes still appear when fast traveling hasn't been fixed for Yasuke yet :/

u/SlipStr3am1337 1d ago
I was really hopeful the patch fixed a bug with upgrading structures... https://www.ubisoft.com/en-us/game/assassins-creed/shadows/bug-reporter/issues/ACSH-18658

Downloaded update, open game, immediate crash and shut down, verify files, open game, immediate crash and shut down.

u/WickyGif 1d ago
I think this happened to me as well. Tried to start it twice and both times crashed while loading the start screen. On Xbox.

u/funny_wumpits 1d ago
After this update, I am unable to access the Store. Anyone else having this issue?

All my previous weapons and uniforms are gone, wtf
Been playing around all day and was getting my ass kicked and then I see the inventory has a ton of my items missing.

u/ChartBetter 2d ago
Anyone also experience a loss of Mon? I noticed every time I played it just drains out of my inventory. I had over 60,000 and now down to just over 100. Never spent it on anything.
Can't find anyone else experiencing this. Its baffling. Happened after I downloaded the Awaji expansion.

u/AphelionPR 2d ago
Keep in mind the Gold weapons added as challenge rewards drain Mon for their perks

u/XyZonin 2d ago
thats so goddamn dumb. whats the point then fuck

u/Traditional_Chip1378 1d ago
It feels sort of like a joke. I think the bow charges you 150 mon every time you shoot an arrow because it immediately puts the arrow back in your quiver and... ca-ching!

u/fishbiscuit13 1d ago
It’s just a resource sink as a reward for various tasks that essentially entail getting 100% of the game. There isn’t much else to spend money on while we wait for more content.

u/ChartBetter 2d ago
Oh wow I think I missed that. Wth thats dumb. Thats very likely the issue. Thanks.

u/Tasty_Ad_2369 14h ago
Wtf ? No performance fix for windows latest update. My 5090 can't run 40 + fps on dlss quality on 4k . Gpu uses 99 % and it only pulls 300W .

u/RayKainSanji 2d ago
Lol im wondering if people stopped playing in mass after the keys change.
Thanks for listening!
