Default Cliffs of Dover Steam Download Upate

Just logged on to my PC & had a Steam pop up to say an update for Cliffs of Dover has been downloaded.

Anyone know what the update has done?

At least it looks like the developers are working on Cliffs of Dover for an update to be downloaded.

Looks to be a rumor going about increased performance. I haven't had the time to test it yet, but will as soon as I get my butt home from work in 8ish hours.

ok not sure about performance, it maybe does feel smoother to look around, but one definite difference:

Now to remove the mirror, you just press the mirror button once (M for me) - before it took two presses to turn it off, (the first press made it go at staticy) now it just turns simply on or off.

I have no idea why this would have changed, but it definitely seems to have done so! I'm thinking this means there are other changes too!

It did not change my version number.I would have expected at least an "A" after the version number.

I personally think they are updates to the steam cloud service, as steam are running out a couple of cloud updates this week. Clod uses steam cloud so this is what is most likely.

As one of the "folks swaring they are getting better FPS and all due to 'the patch' ", if this patch does only "that", this "that" was bugged as hell, and now I have much more fluid gameplay...

Don't try to look smarter, test yourself. I don't know what this patch does, but now I have really better gameplay, and I test this game in regular basis.

Well if the shoe fits ware it.. but don't take it personal!

If you think your getting better FPS post patch.. More power to ya!

Who am I to rain on your parade and say you aint?

But I will say this, I got word documents that are bigger than 20megs! So if this is a patch, it is one small patch and most likely not the patch that Lutheir was referring to that is suppose to redo ALL the Sounds and Video.
