Hi, Legionaries,
We would like to formally address the issues related to optimization that were reported to us via different channels during the Steam Next Fest.
First and foremost, thank you for playing the demo of Last Train Home and getting back to us with your feedback. It’s very valuable to us in enhancing the game's performance and user experience.
The issues some of you faced include:
- Crashes, freezes, severe FPS drops, and prolonged loading times when trying to start a new journey. - It seems these issues happen for specific architectures and combinations of graphic settings. We are thankful for every report via Redmine as they help us track these issues and come up with solutions. But we'd also like to point out that during the Steam Next Fest, only 0.5 percent of the player base encountered crashes.
- FPS drops, freezes, and even crashes during gameplay – It seems this happens more often when using more monitors, especially when they have substantially different types of graphics cards and are handled by different built-in tools. Also, when putting the game in the background often and using certain combinations of graphics settings.
- Memory leaks when playing for many hours with lots of save/load.
What can you do?
- Before downloading the demo, make sure to check the minimal hardware requirements for playing the game on our Steam page.
- Make sure all your drivers are up to date (AMD, Nvidia, Windows Updates...).
- If you encounter any issues, bugs, or crashes, while playing the demo, we kindly request that you report them via Redmine by following the provided instructions at this link.
- If you experience a crash, you should also receive a prompt asking you if the information about the crash can be forwarded to us. Please do so. This information will be critical for us to address the issue.
To come to the point, we are aware of the problems and are diligently working to address them before the game's official release planned for November 28. We will update even the Demo build itself.
We are now fully focused on optimization and bug fixing, and our goal is to deliver a stable game that will run smoothly on machines with hardware that matches our performance requirements.
Thank you for your patience and cooperation.
