Not sure when this happened if it was a game patch or a Driver. But the water effects work on my 970 now with the game.
It was a shader cache issue they fixed it a few drivers ago.
I’m glad they are supporting this game.
Too late.
I agree, it is too late, I was looking forward to the matchmaking turning what was a gloryfied mapmaker into a stellar first person shooter, with unlimited free content made by the community, but the mouse acceleration rendered the game unplayable, too much time has passed now. I’ll be surprised of you could even find a game
Why does it feel like evey MS game takes years to release one patch?
Any game that has acceleration issues at launch is certified garbage, there’s no coming back from it. I bet anyone, you can’t name ONE good FPS that had acceleration issues at launch. It simply doesn’t happen. It’s like having issues with walking forward, or issues with switching weapons. If your game is about run’n’gun and you care about quality even just a little bit then the running and the guns will work at launch. Microsoft’s long history of terrible console ports continues.
What acceleration “issues” did Quake 1 and 2 and UT have?
New Order and Far Cry 4 are console garbage.
He’s right, they did suffer from it, and in the case of UT, it wasn’t fixed for a couple of months.
