Hopefully it’ll fix npcs standing in front of doors that you have to go through to continue the mission (there’s a few).
I had to teleport away or reload a save to get them to move, and shooting them in the face isn’t an option.
 
NPCs being around seems by far the biggest framerate tank in the game - can be running around in the open at 60fps+, go to the Lag Heap and watch a cutscene with 5 NPCs in close proximity and its a slideshow. I don't even even know how you make something tank so badly, maybe they are running the entire AI loop on a single core or something.

I saw a post, it was linked in this thread I think, that said to turn the hair detail down to minimum. I did that and it does *seem* to have helped with crowded areas. I haven’t measured anything or even paid much attention, but it’s worth a try.

Let’s be honest, these are some properly awful haircuts we are talking about, so worth doing anyway.

Skipped about 17 pages of posts! Only got to do a few missions so far and not found any bugs yet. Getting around 100 FPS and I think it looks lovely. Not very far into it but died a lot! Wukong does look a lot better but is a different game. Switching between the two at the mo. I die a lot in that too. I'm not very good at games these days but I still enjoy them, which is the important bit.
 
Wow people make youtube videos about patch notes you can read in 30seconds?
