Star Wars: Squadrons Patch 1.1 Patch Notes
Below are the full Update 1.1 patch notes. The changes to note are fixes for rank placement (although pilots who have already cleared their placement matches are SOL), a possible fix for the HOTAS dead zone issue (one of my personal sticking points with the game at launch), and a fix for V-Sync turning off when visiting the main menu (which will make the 60Hz bypass for the refresh rate bug more reliable). A current list of known issues can be found here.
Ranks of fleet battles
Fixed an issue where players could not be properly placed in a rank after initial placement matches
Players who have not started their placement matches will be able to place themselves normally
Players who have started their placement matches will have their remaining matches use the fixed system
There will be no rank reset at this time
Controls
Added options in the menu called "Controller Global Deadzone" and "Flight Stick Global Deadzone" which will allow you to individually change the dead zone for standard controllers and Flight Sticks
Adjusted the default input curves for Flight Sticks, which should make the controls more responsive
VR
Adjusted some visual effects in VR mode, specifically addressing brightness and bloom when dropping bombs from your Starfighter
Bug fixes
Fixed an issue where the Fleet Battles tutorial could become incomplete if the player's Starfighter was destroyed at certain points in the exercise
Fixed an issue where V-Sync would sometimes become disabled when returning to the main menu
Fixed a bug where the Imperial Squadron was not visible in some cases during the opening cutscene of Dogfight mode
Fixed an issue that caused Nvidia 3000 Series GPUs to default to low quality graphics settings
We removed a few examples where development text appeared in-game
Fixed an issue ensuring that VOIP (voice chat) toggles work as expected
Fixed an issue on PC where single player medals could be removed after playing other game modes. (NOTE: We are also aware of this issue on the console and a fix will be released soon)
Stability
Improved the stability of the Spectator function of online PvP modes
