Patch 1.3

+
I reinstalled the game 2 times, on 2 different SSDs and I still have texture and assets pop-ins. Or do you mean like people, or car spawning ?

Car and people are much better now.

Texture and assets are much better as well until I jump in my car cockpit view and do 100 through the city which i have just done will watch it back and then upload to youtube.

Will post link when finished
 
Absolutely not. Tried it a few times. The drivers honk and thats it.

In my game, sometimes they stop, honk, then, after 5-10 seconds they start to drive again and maneuver around me.

I'm playing Windows version on Linux.

No one drives around.

They do, as long as

a) they have some distance to maneuver, they won't do hard curves
b) you can only block so much of the lane that they can maneuver around you without leaving their lane

So not very aggressive maneurvering, yes, but it used to be zero.

And also while driving i can see cars disappear and appear out of nowhere in the distance this is sooooo bad. Ofc in games with bad draw distance cars appear out of nowhere. But they never disappear when coming closer....Amateurstuff nothing else.

I just notice that cars switch their head- and taillights off when changing ffom a low-res version to higher res.
That seems to be similar to you experience of world objects disappearing when something gets closer.

(And I'm not event talking of the previous step, when those 2D models switch to 3D, which in practice makes most cars siimply disappear).

Yes I agree there is still quite a bit broken in the engine.
 
Ahhh im gonna restart a new character i guess. No mods and se how it is. I guess ill be really missing the mods tho :S

As long as they dont have to leave their lane? Well thats shit isnt it. I've seen them try to turn, their tires move, but thats it ^^.
 
What new Panam mission?!
Sorry, it's not a new mission, my bad. I thought the new car was rewarded through a new mission involving Panam, but I know now that it's a reward, given by Rogue or Dakota, after a particular ending of the Ghost Town mission.

Which is kind of stupid considering that most people already ended that mission many months ago (I don't even remember what it was about).

I don't have that car as an offer or available for purchase.
 
Anyone also is having this issue? The game was working fine before de update and now I can't even load my saves.
They don't seems corrupt though. I've already check the files throught Steam and it's all good ;-;

For the car, just skip time a few days, visit Dakota in the Badlands and then drive away towards the city and she will message you about the car.

The jackets though. No idea! Got the message from Vik telling me they were in my stash but there's nothing there! 😡

Yes, I had that. The last run for the Nomad had to be deleted. Only the very beginning was played, then after the "iguana" and the movie the game crashed. All game saves after the "iguana" did not work at all. The game saves only from the previous playthrough, for the "city child", worked.
This was all discussed here on the previous pages.
 
Recorded 3 vids on patch 1.3

Textures and Assets still pop in late but no where near to how bad it could get before this patch

People seem fine apart from the odd person vanishing as i get closer which i have never noticed before,In the video where v leaves his apartment to meet jackie for the first time as you walk towards jackie a guy sitting at a table vanishes as you get closer.

My setup is not powerful it boasts a gtx 970 overclocked and a intel I3 8100 with 16gb ddr4 this is the reason i am not as critical and do not mind overlooking some issues.

My opinion is that it is much better now than before and thanks to CDPR for there continued hard work

I am going to have to start using the adaptive eye mod again though as it looks so much better than the vanilla one...............

I had trouble finding the jackets too, because they're not marked as New.

I found them in the stash in V's apartment: one is bright red and the other is just next to it, with a brownish collar.

Thanks for the heads up about the car, much appreciated!
 
I have just loaded an "old" save and I have noticed a little change on Xbox at least (Series X).
Now I have twenty auto-saves instead of ten before :)
Edit : My bad, it's in the patch note :giveup:

So I went to sleep in my apartment then checked the stash again and the jackets are there now. Pretty sure they weren't there before but got them now anyway. They're 100% underwhelming and will never get used but, hey, at least I have them now! lol

In this last video, driving around, the pop-ins are basically the same as before, you can notice all billboards and decals spawning right in front of you, like 20-30 m.
It's the same on my rig, but I play with a rtx3080 on max settings, but no difference whatsoever regarding draw distance performance.

For the record, I tested yesterday 1.03 version of the game( from December release), and guess what, the LOD was exactly like on 1.3 update , at least at the start of the game in Badlands, when driving towards NC. So based on this, I would say there was no downgrade, draw distance was terrible from the beginning.

I wonder why there aren't any modders fixing this. Maybe they would need an official toolkit from CDPR.

Saved me a job i was going to give the original a go over the weekend
 
Ever since this patch, I'm no longer able to launch the game: it crashes just after the loading screen. Before, the 1.2x worked flawlessly. :(
 
I am uploading errors that I find to my YouTube channel and I report them to CDPR support. They are answering me, I think it would be nice if we all put love in this game and helped make it bug-free.

I know that it is the responsibility of CDPR to check that there are no bugs before releasing a game or a patch, but nowadays it is impossible for a game to work perfectly on all devices since that would mean millions of tests that cannot be done.

We also know that the Red Engine still needs years of improvement and development.

Stay strong and keep communicating with the players please is the best way.

It seems that the need to adapt the initial game to the old consoles causes us to have that degradation.

The work that they are doing and that will see the light at the end of the year with the patch for new consoles should suppose a significant increase in the graphic quality and surely that the pc players will benefit from this quality improvement.

Greater viewing distance, loading of object textures at a greater distance, 2d elements only at very far distances, etc.

They must wait for the patch of new consoles and that allows pc players that in the graphic options we can configure a higher graphic quality of the game.

Well thats super stupid ofc. So many people wont play this game again. Some myself included just halted the playthrough for later ofc but still. Waiting for a next gen patch in a few months to improve many aspects....I still dont believe in that. And its already August. Look at patch 1.2 or 1.3. These patches added very few little things and mostly fixed lots of bugs. And each patch took them like 3 months. Are they really working simultaneously on the next gen patch all this time? I dont think so. This next gen patch wont do much and probably wont see the light of day in 2021.
And also with next gen assets what kind of new bugs will pc and console players have to deal with then? I dont wanna think about it.
The fact of the matter is its their first modern futuristic open world game with cars and shit. And their engine just isnt good enough to make it a real next gen game. Other games did a better job many years ago already.
I am still hoping for an overhaul of the traffic and pop-ins as well but its very doubtful.
