    Fix: For Honor frequent bugs

  • Easy AntiCheat – Impossible to launch the game error
  • Easy AntiCheat error 10018
  • For Honor won’t return to the desktop
  • Gamepads not working
  • Controller switches Right & Left Trigger
  • Game stutters when you are hit
  • NAT Type Group Issues
  • Mixed Region Group Connectivity Issues
  • Error 0004000008
  • For Honor won’t launch
  • 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. Here’s how to fix this:

  • Use the Verify File Integrity option in Uplay PC client
  • Open your “For Honor” game page > click Properties
  • In the Local files section, select Verify files.
  • 2. Easy AntiCheat error 10018

    The AntiCheat error 10018 is simply resolved by fully restarting the game and the Uplay desktop client. Once you’ve ‘killed’ their respective processes, just start them again and the error prompt shouldn’t appear anymore.

  • Close For Honor > use Task Manager to end all game processes > restart the game.
  • Close the game and restart Uplay PC client.
  • 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 a “Connection has been lost” error message while being idle on matchmaking, you may be unable to quit to desktop. To return to the desktop, simply restart the game. You can force-quit the game by pressing Alt+F4 and 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 listed in this fix 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 same solutions suggested fixing controller switch issues. You can also try reducing the graphics and check your network connection. Since there are no dedicated servers for “For Honor”, a lot of 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, simply restart the game. This error was, at the certain point of 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
