Really nice update there!
I'm more than willing to wait for however long it takes to iron out these creases..... obviously I would like the patch sooner than later, mind.
Currently I can get a good framerate, though still with some annoying drops, with my shadows disabled..... I could get an even better framerate if I dropped the trees.... but I don't want to. The idea of the beta patch being released with much better performance but meaning I would have to go without tracers, bullet effects, roundels..etc....? Nope. I don't want to "go without" anything and would much rather wait until the team are happy with the results and have the full works.
Can't wait for more news! Things are looking bigger, brighter and better for the near future.
