Man, tonight I was hoping to finally put some real time into checking out the new patch - it's been a while. Finally, I go in late tomorrow. Fresh out of the shower I get a call to drive a boxtruck out to move some furniture, first thing tomorrow morning. Of course.
I did the math. 4 hours playtime for 7 hours in bed. I really need a longer session than that to get a good feel. Like, a morning/afternoon thing. I do like it so far though. The gunplay is definitely better balanced. It's much easier to enjoy the great gun feel and sonics when the corresponding effect comes in fitting proportions. Using a double barrel at the start convinced me to go invest a good bit into body and reflexes for now. Man, I did really miss how good the guns feel. There are times where I really think it's about the best there is. Other things make me feel like I'm playing paintball or airsoft, but that can be its own fun too![Laugh :laugh: :laugh:](https://tpucdn.com/forums/data/assets/smilies/laugh-v1.gif)
Now, the NPCs generally only have hilarious bugs when there's a loading hiccup. Like, while I was doing the BD intro at Lizzie's, Evelyn decided to skate across the floor in a sitting pose turned up at maybe a 30 degree tilt. So her arms and hands looked like she was trying to be a menacing crab. She scooted just like a go-cart crab lady, it was fantastic. Jet-ski jump pose. 10/10. She did pop into her standing idle after that, and walked right back to her chair. I was still sitting in the BD seat, in dialogue, just watching in awe.
It was right after exiting the BD sequence, so yeah... I think it's safe to say that was loading related. I've seen other times where a space was loading in after 'teleporting' where the NPCs would t-pose about in that brief second before everything came to detail.
Driving is also wayy better, and I now crank the settings with DLSS quality to mostly keep maxed at 82fps half-sync. RT just decimates my poor little RTX 2060, though. It can barely hold 30-40fps with a lot of other settings turned way down. DLSS performance is frankly not enough to get it close to smooth. Bummer, it looks fantastic. Though I never saw this card doing the RT in this game well in the first place.
