It was always playable on the Pro, but it's better performance now than before. Dips only in the heavy fights in my experience and I believe a new DF video was made?
Thank you again, haha.
Edit: Still some drops but hugely improved. Time to buy. Just ordered it. Thanx!
Just beat it. Final fight(s) felt like they were thinking "You know, let's get all those people who have reached the end and have some good faith on our game to hate it!". Soo boring, bland and unnecessary long.
Ashtray maze was fucking amazing tho.
I'd give this game a 8/10, very good, but you can't avoid the feeling that it could have been so much better.

BTW, what even was the PS4 quest? Think I got them all, and found all them pretty essential to the experience.
I played my Xbox One X tonight for a few minutes and it was better. Still chugs a bit after pausing but I think that is a good bit smoother than it was yesterday too.
Word. I'd put it up there with Titanfall 2's Assembly Plant mission, because of the clever ways it disorients you, while managing to be super clear and readable at the same time. It's not easy to design a level like that.
Since people were advising attacking from up above I did that and it actually was super easy. The invisible thing couldn't get up there, which was pretty much the whole problem.
There is a huge focus on belief in this game and its relationship with Altered Itens. I wonder from where it comes from. It reminds me of Planescape Torment sometimes.
Still has two to three second major slowdown after unpausing, slight stutter when picking up collectibles and leaving the map open while moving still makes it choppy. That said, having lots of enemies on screen at the same time doesn't seem to be causing the sustained dips anymore. It's not perfect but I'm okay with how it runs now, given everything the game is doing. I'm on XB1X.
They were able to get up there for me. It just took then longer. But once they are up there it's easy to take them out because they can only approach or run away in a straight line on the walkway.
My first platinum is in the bank.
Excited for the post-launch content.

The Hideo Kojima mission was
kind of a letdown... and super short.
Yeah it wasn't really a mission, just a cool cameo. It was an interesting change of pace though, hopefully we see some other non-combat stuff of that ilk in the DLC.
Thanks! Finally! I shelved t the game on "X" not due to issues but because I really hate film grain and wanted to play the game without it. Unfortunately I have work for a the next few days. Any on the "X' can report how it is after the patch without film grain/motion blur?
Control's soundtrack might be my favourite of the year. It's a sublime, deeply atmospheric blend of brooding synth and methodical beats. The synth is so rich and alien, giving the environments this unusual dichotomy of open emptiness and hard geometry oddly lived in with alien energies. It's very spacious, but filled with the unknown. And the drum samples perfectly ramp up the intensity of combat.
It's really, really fucking good.

On PS4 Pro, no Pierce upgrades were available to me after the patch. Then suddenly the first one showed up one day when visiting a random Control Point. The final upgrade still hasn't shown up yet.
Has anyone tried to access the
in the Extrasensory Lab after the story ended? It doesn't seem to work.
Kojima easter egg
It was the same with me until I equipped Pierce, I ran around shot some hiss, picked up some mods/material and went back to a control point, it was now available to upgrade on the astral construct menu.
Finished the game last weekend and enjoyed myself. The ending was a bit underwhelming but I'm looking forward to going back and tying up some loose ends.

Completed it myself yesterday and adored it. Easily one of the best games of the year for me.
Ok, I'm stumped, question time
On a side mission called The Enemy Within I'm supposed to deal with an Altered Object inside a shelter. I've found the shelter, Jesse confirms it's the one, but inside the Shelter, before I find anything interesting, there's a huge gap that I can't jump, and I can't see a way around it. Am I missing something? Is there a high jump skill or something I should have had?
Main Story-wise I'm supposed to go to the Panopticon (Containment).

Ok, it's answer time.
During mission 6, you will get the "levitate" ability. That's what you need there.
When the mouth is pointed at a platform, throw something at it. It'll hit each platform in turn (skipping one after a hit, I think); it'll be easiest if you move a few platforms ahead to take out the smaller enemies and prep a throw before it starts spitting clocks. I was able to get it my second try (my first try ended up with me levitating into the pit in the middle).
any time you run into issues with a boss, 99999.9% of the time, you're not throwing things enough. throw often. don't shoot; throw.
You can cheese it by using levitate and putting yourself at an angle where you can throw the clocks at the mouth and it cannot hit you.
Thank you all, I will try this tonight.
...until you get to a boss that can dodge most throws...
...like the second time you fight Mr. Tomassi.
Thanks. What about level 3 upgrades? Are those gated behind story? I just got the #6 card.
I have a question about one of the motel sections. I just need confirmation that it's not a glitch, and I'll be good.
Is there something else I'm missing, or this a bug? If it's the former, don't reveal the answer, please. I just wanna know where I stand. Thanks!
I'm at the mission where I'm trying to find the janitor. I'm in the motel that has a radio at the front desk that has dialogue in a foreign language playing. There's monster in Room #1. The other two rooms have radios that are blaring static. I've already adjusted all the radios in the second and third rooms so they're all playing the same radio chatter, thus killing the monster in Room #1. When I go to Room #1, I pick up the key. But from there, I'm unable to actually use the key on the room with the black triangle you'd normally open. There's no input prompt or anything.

It's not a bug. Here's a hint:
Janitors don't hang out in guest rooms; they usually have their own spaces in hotels.
I played some more last night on PC and whenever a new quest or side quest pops up it says "hold G to track" but when I do nothing happens. There isn't a keybind for this action and nothing shows bound to G so I don't know what to do. I have to manually go into the menu to switch quests.
Any ideas? Has anyone else had this problem?

you can throw things at him too. but pierce is better since he's not a traditional big boss like we see throughout the game.
Thanks for the confirmation! I'll keep looking.
