This update fixes several bugs I encountered that were not previously reported while porting to ps5. It also improves the FSR 3 implementation for better performance and smoother frame gen, and reworks how saving is handled to prevent corruption.
Full patch notes below:
Steam Platform:
-Achievements should now unlock for all quests and missions, some had issues with unlocking before.
-Cloud saving should be more reliable now.
Saving:
-Auto save has been removed to prevent issues where the game would close during its process corrupting saves. This may come back in a future update but more testing is needed.
- a new button in the pause menu called "Quick Save" has been added, use this before quitting so your progress is saved.
Combat:
-Weapons no longer get dequipped when using melee, this also applies to movement speed.
- adjusted look and flight sensitivity.
Rendering:
-DLSS 4 was temporarily removed due to causing issues with multi platform releases, I am looking into how to bring it back, but that will be in a future update. For now FSR 3.1 is being used for all upscaling and frame gen.
- Nvidia reflex removed, though this is planned to return in the future.
Performance:
- Optimized AI a further for more fps; this is an ongoing process, and I expect to get an extra 10-25fps in future updates for low end and mid-range computers.
- Removed asynchronous physics from AI ragdolls as it was in the experimental stage with unreal engine, and some users had issues with ragdolls not working.
- Fixed an issue that caused AI to move like they are stuttering in far distances.
UI:
- Pause menu should now close when you press the pause button on your keyboard or gamepad. Previously you needed to click a UI button to close it.
Bug Fixes:
- Zombies should no longer get stuck in a Tpose after dying, this would happen sometimes.
- The police helicopter should now appear faster.
- Fixed an issue in the cave where rocks did not appear in correct spots.
- Fixed an issue that caused the minimap not to render.
- Fixed the delivery mission objects spawning halfway through the ground.
