Latest Playtest Feedback
A few notes after playing almost 3 hours of the playtest.
It’s a fun game, had a blast, but the performance is pretty bad. It was rare to go above 60 FPS, tending to hover around 40-50ish FPS, with dips as low as 15 FPS. This was on a system with an AMD Threadripper 2950x and a AMD Radeon RX 9070 XT. Granted, I was running the game via Proton on Bazzite 43.
My only other real complaint was that voice chat seems to be voice activation by default. I’d suggest a popup on boot asking what the user would prefer, as playing via Discord meant having to go through each player in the group and muting them individually, while also making sure you’ve muted yourself. I’d personally advocate for making the default Push to Talk.

Thanks for the feedback! Yeah, we’ll keep working on performance (especially in the Airport). Were you the party host by chance? That is the most taxing on a PC, but you still should not be dipping to 15 on that setup.
We may switch the VOIP to PTT by default. We turned in on so players would know it is there, but I have had a similar experiences in other games where suddenly I am double mic-ed in game and in discord.
We are also adding a quick options feature so that things like PTT, Volume, FOV are in the very first menu in the settings to make it easier to adjust on the fly, and limit hunting through the menus.
Thanks again. Glad you enjoyed the playtest!

Those all sounds like great improvements!
I was not the host for our gameplay session.

Hum, interesting. We’ll look into it.
