Some useful timestamps:
00:00 - Brief overview of changes, RTAO not in Ultra Preset now
01:21 - [1080p]Max Settings, Quality DLSS, Release (VRS ON) vs Patch (VRS OFF), Intro Scene
02:45 - [1080p|1440p DLDSR]Max Settings, VRS OFF, DLSS, Intro Scene
04:38 - Variable Rate Shading ON vs OFF zoomed in comparison
06:31 - [1080p]Max Settings, Quality DLSS, VRS OFF, Engineering Area (looting Ripper gun)
08:31 - [1080p|1440p|1620p DLDSR]Max, Various DLSS levels, VRS OFF, Engineering Area (to Ripper)
09:55 - [1620p DLDSR]Max, Performance DLSS, VRS OFF, same as before.
In this short video, we can see that with this update, merely released three days after the game’s release, we can now disable VRS (Variable Rate Shading) and, therefore it is now possible to use DLSS without getting blurry image quality or pixelization over certain elements.
I believe those so called “traversal stutters” are still happening, now and then, they’re not too bad in my case, I can live through them since they don’t happen very often, but I’m also aware that the developers have mentioned they’re still looking into the rest of the issues being reported.
As usual, I hope this can be useful to any of you, and I’ll see you in the next one : )
