What I noticed so far:
- DLSS looks way better than before. No more "blur" or at least not as much as before. Even performance @1440p looks quite good!
- DLSS got a sharpening slider!
- DLSS texture bias has been properly implemented this time, probably part of what gives the DLSS a better look now
- DLSS now doesn't mess up your inventory character look with massive blur
- Mirrors have been updated with some "smudge" on them? Why?
- RT lighting, especially on psycho gives more "pop" for lack of a better word
- Shadows got a big boost with RT, no more blocky shadows!
- HDR is now actually worth turning on
- Performance is better and more stable than before
- I could swear some of the cutscenes got new animations, like with Kirk, but it might be wishful thinking so I won't
For the hitching? i generaly play with v sync on and some other tweeks not that it will ever hit 98 fps in this game but.NVIDIA OWNERS; Rollback your drivers to v511.65. Be certain Vsync is turned off and the apply the usual optimizations.
I did as well, but the screen tearing has been practically eliminated. I restarted my PC after roll back and the hitches I was experiencing are gone at the moment. Averaging 56FPS in the open world in Kabuki and City Center on a 3080Ti.For the hitching? i generaly play with v sync on and some other tweeks not that it will ever hit 98 fps in this game but.

Looks way better on PC - very solid and sharp but I have hit on FPS and its lagging a lot when opening map for a first couple of seconds.
HDR was perfect for me before 1.5 now it's too damn dark. Even the non-HDR version it's too damn dark. I have an LG C9. I was using 750 nits, 300 paper white, and 2.2 tone mapping midpoint, and the game looks fantastic. Booted 1.5, and now everything is too dim. Raised paper white to the max (500) barely light enough. That's very unfortunate.
Unfortunately it's the opposite for me. Before the patch I basically hit a rock solid 60fps.- Performance is better and more stable than before
People want different things and while and nobody is forcing you to look like a moron from an asylum. My V actually wears fitting clothes and I'm playing on the highest difficulty setting w/o any problems.Idk what to think about this,i wanted 2 things "transmog system for clothes and maybe game +" thats all.So for me this is simply disappointment.All other things are cool,but look in this game is huge for me.I dont want look like moron from asylum becouse i have to use items with highest armor stats.I dont get it why they simply ignore people what want this in game,im pretty sure that im not alone.So we wait half year to get green markers on map and shiny wheels.Dont get me wrong i gonna play it but im not happy at all.
HDR was not working perfectly before because it was broken. This can be proven and I hope the current HDR implementation did fix these issues. Note please that I'm not arguing that you found the old HDR more pleasing, I do however argue that HDR was not working properly.HDR was perfect for me before 1.5 now it's too damn dark.

Oof. What's your resolution and DLSS setting? That looks blurrier than it did at launch. The bloom is something that will take a while to solve apparently. That's RT loading in and being antagonized by the game's exposure adaptation.Ray-traced reflections seem bugged on my system.

Of course, no mods at the moment. As for the shadow - That may be more correct. There's a lot of light from different angles coming in right there. Overall RT is more visibly present, we're talking scenes in 1.31 were it was practically invisible to them looking almost like Metro Enhanced, but you don't have the solid deep AO that's out of place like 1.31.. at least not as much. Hopefully that means we won't be seeing any of this anymore.I'm very glad that the next gen patch hasn't been irrelevant for the PC version. I almost thought we would be doomed.
There are even some PC-specific changes, which we love to see!
That being said, those glowing tattoo sleeves are definitely a bug. There's basically no shadow on her tattoos. There's also no shadow at her armpit:
Have you tried removing all mods and/or tweaks?
@moderators, maybe move to Technical\PC ?
4k, settings are maxed out, DLSS on performance, clean install. Haven't experienced it prior the patch.Oof. What's your resolution and DLSS setting?
I haven't seen anything like that on my end, but I also haven't had rain pop up. They've certainly changed the weather variables because I've had two sandstorms so far...never had that happen in any previous release, ever. How does it look with DLSS sharpening? If I see this I'll share my findings. That does look pretty bad, especially at 4K. Ouch.4k, settings are maxed out, DLSS on performance, clean install. Haven't experienced it prior the patch.
You are correct! My apologies. Earlier I thought you were speaking about the AO not being present, but indeed; she isn't casting shadows at all! I'll need to check out the scene again later, as I would guess it's because there's one of those light/shadow occlusion boxes now clipping into the scene. I'm noticing some other issues as well.I'm very glad that the next gen patch hasn't been irrelevant for the PC version. I almost thought we would be doomed.
