Key notes
We’re sure that For Honor players are very determined to annihilate any bugs that may dare to appear in their way.
Indeed, judging by player feedback, there area lot of bugsaffecting the game, but the good news is that Ubisoft has already published a list of quick workarounds that you can use to fix them.
How can I fix common For Honor bugs?
1. Easy AntiCheat – Impossible to launch the game error
Easy AntiCheat sometimes displays an error message, preventing the game from launching or simply closing it after the intro videos.
2. Easy AntiCheat error 10018
The AntiCheat error 10018 is resolved by fully restarting the game and the Uplay desktop client. Once you’ve ‘killed’ their respective processes, start them again, and the error prompt shouldn’t appear.
If it keeps reappearing, consider disabling background programs like VoIP or chat apps.
3. For Honor won’t return to the desktop
Sometimes, after getting aConnection has been losterror message while being idle on matchmaking, you may be unable to quit the desktop. To return to the desktop, restart the game.
You can force-quit the game by pressingAlt+F4and killing the process from the Task Manager.
4. Gamepads not working
Unplug all other non-necessary peripherals, especially Steering Wheels and Flight Joysticks. If this doesn’t work, follow the troubleshooting steps listedin this Gamepad not recognized article.
5. Controller switches Right & Left Trigger
Usually, this issue is prevalent for Bluetooth controllers. Try connecting your controller through USB. Ubisoft also recommends installing the Windows 10 Anniversary update OS as a workaround.
6. Game stutters when you are hit
Use the exact solutions suggested for fixing controller switch issues. You can also try reducing the graphics and checking your network connection. Since there are no dedicated servers for For Honor, many things fall on the player’s side.
Restarting the game and starting again might help as well.
7. NAT Type Group issues
Groups with more than 1 Strict NAT are not recommended, as they will not be able to reach matchmaking. Preferably invite friends with open or moderate NAT types instead.
8. Mixed Region Group Connectivity issues
Users might encounter connectivity issues when grouping with players from other regions. For this reason, Ubisoft doesn’t recommend creating mixed region groups.
9. Error 0004000008
If error 0004000008 appears on the screen, restart the game. This error was, at a certain point in time, a complete plague for For Honor players, but it seems that’s somewhat resolved or at least significantly reduced these days.
10. For Honor won’t launch
We hope these workarounds helped you fix some of the For Honor issues bugging you. If you are experiencing a more serious issue likehigh ping, latency, and stuttering on For Honor, we have a comprehensive guide to help you fix that.
