Oh shit, when they said “around the corner” they really meant it
I am really impressed with the game and the post release addressing of issues.
That is great turnaround time, but I hope they aren’t crunching like crazy to get these patches out the door. I’m fine waiting an extra week or two if it means the devs aren’t being worked to the bone.
Eh, release season is the crunch season. Hopefully they’re being properly compensated and have a downtime planned once things quiet down.
Unfortunately with games like Starfield inbound, keeping player retention means patching things the players aren’t happy with. They may be crunched but I hope they’re being compensated well for it and get a long break after
Doubt they are cruching. They have a team of 450 people working on the game.
The reduction in save file size is appreciated, but unfortunately it appears to be rather minimal. Just tested it on a couple of saves - after loading an existing file and immediately savings, looks like it went down from
- End of Act 2 = 12.1MiB → 11.3MiB
- Middle of Act 3 = 30.8MiB → 29.8MiB
So, only a 1MiB reduction it seems… So, still need to manage like 15 GiB of save files, lol
Excited for the changes, but unfortunately they broke the Vulkan renderer pretty badly, halving the performance.
Thanks for the warning. Looks like you’re not the only one affected.
When I started the game I ended up aquiring a strange character, but was not really sure if she was part of the game and I just missed some cutscenes when she joined or maybe she was actually on the mind flayer ship…
Now 20 hours into the game I am realizing that no, she is actually someone else’s character. Apparently when someone else joins your game their character gets tied to your playthrough and you cannot get rid of them. Ever.
What in the actual fuck.
A. I never invited anyone to play the game with me
B. Why are people allowed to join by default? Especially if it introduced a permanent character to their playthrough?
C. WHY ARE OTHER PEOPLES CHARACTERS PERMANENTLY ATTACHED TO YOUR PLAYTHROUGH.
The game has been fantastic so far, but having just realized she’s not part of the story what in the ever living fuck why is this not like a day one option to get rid of characters that aren’t your own character. It makes no sense.
From the top of the change list:
HIGHLIGHTS
- Features
- Introducing Withers’ Wardrobe of Wayward Friends! You can now dismiss co-op party members from your campaign.
Took way to long for this gamebreaking bug to be fixed.
- Features
Honestly, most probably would assume you’re playing purely with kultiplayer anyways in that campaign. I’m doing a separate playthrough instead of just playing the same game that I’ve started with my friend. I’d feel a little weird about playing my friends PC as well anyways, and doing stuff without him.
Active Search: the starting search radius is increased, the camera moves to the selected item, and you now get a button hint
There’s a way to actively search? How?
Edit: Apparently it’s only available if you use a controller. :(
“karlach” “act 1”
Oh, that makes two companions I missed. Oops.
Does this mean the PS5 version will get patch #2 right away?
Almost certainly. It sounds like the performance issues with Act 3 were why the PS5 and probably Mac were delayed.
Does anyone know if they fixed the umbral gem issue? The one where you can deposit too many and leaves you short?
Is there a way to mass delete older saves? I really only need my most recent say three but deleting them is such an arduous task.
What are you playing on?
