Homestead update issues.

Hello!

Since the Homestead update on the PTS I have noticed that the graphics options had dramatically changed, I didn't really know if it was a bug or something else that had changed, I kind of hoped that it could somehow be untouched for the update on the Live server and the previous graphical setting would remain, silly me to think that.

After the update on Monday (02/06/17) a lot of people, me included, have been experiencing big issues like:
-> Locked Aspect Ratio with in-game screen resolution;
-> Random crashes;
-> Graphic settings not responding to what is being modified;
-> UI fonts go extremely blurry when you change some graphics options;
-> Missing some .dll when installing the update;
-> Game instantly crashes after pressing Play on the launcher asking to submit a crash report (This is my current case.)

The list goes on and on, but what it looks like is that these are graphics related problemas, so I ask: Why did you have to make such changes?

The game was working fine with the previous graphic options. Was there really something that big where the graphics needed tweaking and then only people with high-end gaming PCs would be able to play the game?

I have a laptop with an I7 CPU, 8GB RAM, and all the other fancy stuff, except a graphics card, which I only have a generic Intel Graphics 4000 thingy here.

I'm not a heavy graphics gamer myself, grew up playing old games, I mostly value gameplay mechanics over visuals, and was really fine playing ESO on 800x600 with everything on low maintaining +60FPS, and still being able to have a lot of fun.

So please, whatever changed, consider letting us know why these problems are happening right now after Homestead, and if we are supposed to be left aside with our old rigs, tell us at least!

Thank you!
