Homefront: The Revolution DLC & Framerate Patch Plans

Facebook post from Dambuster Studios announces some new free content is now available for Homefront: The Revolution and says more free missions are on the way for the just-released shooter sequel. They also acknowledge that the game has performance issues, and say additional patches are in the works to improve framerates. Here's word on the content and FPS issues:
The Revolution is now finally available worldwide, and we hope you are enjoying your first steps in Occupied Philadelphia as a member of the Resistance. It has been a long road for us, and we're only getting started.

But we're also aware that performance - particularly frame rate - is not currently where we want it to be, and we are working on additional patches to help address these issues and more. Patch notes per platform will be available on the community forums and on Steam when they go live.

In the meantime, the first free content in our post-launch Resistance Mode road map has been unlocked for all players today. All 8 individual pieces of the two new Punk and Anarchist outfits, plus the Punk and Anarchist full body clothing, can be found in your character's Gear and Clothing menu for players to customize their Fighters with. On top of that, two bonus Hail Mary boosters in your Consumables inventory offer a free instant revive to help you on your way to completing Missions on the hardest difficulty. Use them wisely!

Beyond improvements and content, we aim to have three additional polished Missions for Resistance Mode available by the end of June, with more free Missions to come after that.

probly denuvo yet again, zapping away those resources.. devs are idiots, cant handle the code for it, etc.

The claims about Denuvo having an impact on performance are unfounded. DOOM uses Denuvo and runs great. I dislike DRM as much as anyone else but so far, Denuvo hasn't had any proven negative impact on end users.

Apart from performance issues, it's incredible how not one review I've read managed to put the finger on why the game is only a bit better than mediocre. They just can't seem to clarify what it is that makes the game meh. It's annoying. So far everything I see in Youtube vids makes me want to buy the game... :\

Hmm, the reviews I've read have been pretty clear about it:

1) AI is retarded.
2) Guns aren't satisfying to use.
3) Death has no meaning so it's usually better to just ignore enemies and go for the objectives.
4) Missions are very generic and repetitive.
5) Writing is inconsistent.
6) Vehicle controls are lousy.
7) The game doesn't really take advantage of the premise and ends up being nothing more than a half-baked Far Cry clone.

I love this, the developer admits that the game has performance issues. But on the steam forums, you should see how many rabid fans to defending the game and saying people are full of shit and the game doesn't have performance issues.

I've been playing this the past 2 days, and it is a lot of fun, but yea the performance is pretty bad. I had to turn everything down to High and Med to get it running somewhat decently.

Cause it's just ok that companies keep releasing broken products and then quickly state how they're going to fix them!

That makes it all better, right?
And what's worse is we keep giving them our business..How embarrassing for us.
