What are the changes since the v1.3 BETA?

[GiladN]

Thanks for the patch Sega, still testing.

One very noticeable issue - Pre rendered cutscenes are choppy when viewed in game (for example, babel introduction cutscene (when viewed directly from the game's folder as a wmv file, the playback is smooth and stutter free). Please fix the video playback.

cutscenes and camera movement in Middle Floor / Stray Sheep feels choppy as hell. again.

I can confirm that all of the bugs encountered/reported in the past beta branches are still not fixed in the main branch, including the issues listed above.

[coil]

Yeah, they are probably out of QA money.

[Wolfi]

Thanks for this very needed patch SEGA, i can finaly resume my playthrough with true 144FPS gameplay !

Energy Drinks run out two times as fast as on ps3 version now.

So we're still not able to enjoy this in 60 FPS, even after these changes?

Well, damn. I've already stopped playing this for like a month or two, waiting for the right patches to be deployed, but it seems they will never come at this point. If the game is still choppy as heck, especially during the 'resting' chapel stages between regular stages, as well as during regular gameplay of climbing the blocks, then I guess I will just never start it again >_>

dunno mate, it runs at 60fps fine on me.
the only issues are camera movement at stray sheep which is at 30fps but aside that the game runs smooth.

I cant play the game, now it hangs at start, seems that there is an issue with my Xbox One controller connected with bluetooth.

[MaskedCircle]

this update broke gameay stuff.
At least guve us the option to roll back

enemies are now even more fast than how they are in base game, more over energy drinks doesn't last long as they suppose to.
Please fix this issue, you guys listening?

[Bootleg Jones]

Those of you who are having issues, are you running the game at above 30 fps? I'm trying to decide if I should start this game now or wait for another patch, and if locking to 30 fps could help me avoid these issues that would make my decision easy (I can live with a slower frame rate).

30fps seems to fix every issue with game. Sadly they've removed fps cap from latest build which I'm asking from them to add back. So our options is to use 3rd party software to cap it to 30fps then the game works fine.

[MaskedCircle]

guys, just add the option to change fps back to 30.
the 60 is giving way more issues than it solves.
