GOG version? It's not as bad as it used to be but we still never get simultaneous updates.

Thank you!

Frame Generation seems to be broken, as with my rtx 4070 (laptop) I'm getting ~30fps instead of ~100. For now, the only solution I'm seeing is to disable FG completely, only turn on DLSS.

Looking forward to the next Radeon driver update -- the DoF going completely black in dialogue or menus isn't game breaking but would be nice to see fixed. On Reddit it looks like only Radeon cards are affected.

AMD GPUs often get the short end of the stick when it comes to compatibility or proper optimisation.

(to compete with a hijacker who posted it later)

Thank you so much for this game. I just started in December. It's been a blast so far.

I'm beyond endgame, nothing left to do and have yet to trigger this secret your keeping on how to actually trigger seeing the new worlds at all. Im pretty convinced the only people that are showing anything did so with save game editing.

I'm a robot, have been for over a year, I run thru sentinels like butter and only get ships. My settlement has nothing left to do, gives me worthless crap I have zero need of. I have an S class everything.

All I see is hype over a few big planets with major bugs, lol. And today when Cursed was supposed to end and 17 start, you extend it another 6 days, honestly you can eat a bag of ♥♥♥♥♥ for that.

Thanks for posting this, big patches sometimes scare me.

I'm on 4060 and I try different combos between DLSS quality, DLAA, Frame Generation and Reflex. After a few minutes of gameplay, it always drops fps from 100+ to 15, unless I disable frame gen and play with 60+. Weird thing I noticed is when frames drop, gpu usage in task manager falls from 80-90% to 6-15%. And when I press ESC for menu, most of the time frames jump back up to 120 and gpu usage is normal again 80-90%. Something must be bugged as it makes no sense gpu usage falls almost to zero during gameplay, and almost to max on menu.

Please fix ugly LOD issues

I own a 6650 XT and a 5500 XT on my other rig with no problems must be the 7000 card range issue.
