Выпущен патч 1.4 для игры Avowed с более чем 350 исправлениями и улучшениями

от


В обновлении Obsidian выпустила версию 1.4 для игры «Avowed», включив более 350 исправлений и улучшений, а также опубликовала полный список изменений. Рассмотрим подробнее, что включает данное последнее обновление.

Обновление 1.4 вновь вводит совместимость с NVIDIAs технологией генерации кадров DLSS 4 и улучшает визуальное качество волос, бород и меха при использовании FSR на сниженных настройках. Кроме того, оно включает некоторые улучшения производительности и оптимизации для лучшего игрового процесса.

Как преданный поклонник, я не могу не оценить то, как это улучшение оптимизирует атаки с помощью волшебной палочки для более плавного игрового процесса. Особенно замечательно наблюдать за улучшенной эффективностью способности ‘Метеоритный дождь’. И давайте не забывать об оптимизированной сцене извержения вулкана, которая добавляет дополнительный слой погружения в игру. Разработчики позаботились о том, чтобы обновление не перегружало мой процессор во время экрана компиляции шейдеров, что обеспечивает стабильность работы на всех процессорах. Это действительно захватывающее событие для нас, игроков!

В игру были внесены улучшения для обеспечения более плавной работы версии игры на ПК. Ранее встречались случаи зависаний системы при определенных условиях, но теперь эта проблема решена. Также устранены сбои при переходе между картами и проблемы с радиальным пользовательским интерфейсом, элементами питания и аудиосистемами, что привело к снижению частоты возникновения данных редких проблем.

В последнем обновлении Title Update 1.4 я заметил несколько захватывающих изменений, которые улучшают мой игровой опыт. Во-первых, они подкорректировали механику боя, делая выстрелы из лука более реалистичными за счет добавления гравитации к стрелам. Теперь, если выпустить стрелу в воздухе, она естественным образом упадет — это беспокоило некоторых фанатов Skyrim. ️

Кроме того, патч оптимизировал скорость накопления молний при контакте с водными препятствиями, обеспечивая более эффектные битвы. Также мои верные спутники будут ближе ко мне во время наших приключений, и я могу даже найти монеты Валиана или Рауатая как лут! Впереди действительно волнующие времена!

Новым захватывающим дополнением является режим игры без арахнифобии (Arachnophobia-Friendly Game Mode). Активировать этот режим можно в меню доступности, где все пауки превращаются в маленькие сферы с мечами. Так игроки, страдающие от страха перед пауками, могут комфортно играть.

Конечно, решения для этих квестов не ограничены. Однако, чтобы сохранить волнение и тайну для тех, кто еще их не прошел, я решил не делиться этими решениями здесь. Для тех, кто хочет узнать больше, вы можете найти их по этой ссылке. Удачи в прохождении квестов!

Каждый раз при открытии Steam он автоматически скачивает это обновление. Вы можете найти подробности о том, что нового в этих обновлениях, известных как патчи, прямо здесь.
