One of the most annoying bugs found in Kingdom Come Deliverance is the infamous halberd bug, which brings heavy performance issues that last for the entire playthrough. Yesterday's update added a fix that prevents it from happening, but those who have experienced it already don't have any workaround, being forced to start from an older save file or from the beginning to prevent the performance issues.
While the issue hasn't been fixed yet, it seems like there may be some hope. On his Twitter profile, Warhorse Studios' Daniel Vavra confirmed that the team is working on fixing the bug completely, but cannot make any promise.
Yes, we are working on it.

We are working on that, but cant promise it 100%. ? You dont have any older save without it?

On a related note, Vavra also confirmed that there are no plans to release an HD texture pack for the Xbox One version of the game.
Xbox X already has better textures than One. No HD pack though.
