Hello Demo Branch players!
With this build, players should be enjoying a much smoother experience alongside improved FPS and find a more coherent, slightly more reactive world, with a camera that helps keep you better in the flow of combat.
There's also gradual improvements to animations and gameplay balancing amongst many enemies and weapons.
Here are the big changes to the current Live build:
- Lock-On now follows enemies in a different way, framing gameplay a bit better
- Foci Menu Improvements to Adrenaline Skill Selection, Phase Rock Insertion
- Skill-Tree UI Feedback
- Some Level Design changes to make the world more coherent
- Shortcuts that have been unlocked should now restore properly(not halfway)
- Two less texture samples used for VERY common architectural pieces
- Some Shadow casting optimizations
- A huge number of Distance Culling optimizations
- Custom HISM grouping optimizations
Note that Archery Zoom may be worse on surface, but it's backend is entirely reworked to be more designer friendly. Look forward to a VERY refined experience in future patches as we can start tweaking it with our new tools.
