The game has frozen 3 times on me tonight with the new patch. Each time while having a conversation with someone.
The screen/image freezes and they keep talking for a bit, then a crash to desktop.
Make that 4 crashes now. 4th one when I tried to quick travel.

Getting this weird shadow problem in 1.07. Way to go CDPR. Waited to delve further in after hearing about this patch. Looks like i'll have to wait some more. Anyone else experienced this?
Same thing at stock CPU. I don't OC GPUs. Always during cut scenes/dialogue.
Not the same but similar. Lighting goes on and off inside building depending on where the camera is looking.
Also the mouse sensitivity has gone bonkers fast. Had to go into the .ini file and replace 1 with 0.5 to get it to normal levels. Every time I touched the mouse it went all over.

had a little go on the new patch, new alternative control system is much more better and responsive imo than the previous. like the inventory improvements but then just froze 
will try it again tomorrow when i have more time but i have noticed fps has taken a hit compared to max settings on 1.06 and max settings on 1.07

Just went into the swamps in Velen and my FPS was in the low 40s!
How the heck is that even possible, and it turns out the patch has hammered console performance again as well. This patch was supposed to give performance improvements according to the developers.
Going to have to fiddle and see what's up. As it stands though patch 1.07 has frozen and crashed 7 times today, and my reduced old minimums of 62 fps down to 42.
My averages are now in the 60's, and at odd times my max spikes to 90's.

They should have just left it alone and added Alt movement and storage tweaks. The game was running absolutely fine. Any way to downgrade back to 1.06? Terrible patch.
On the bright side it seems Hairworks has gotten some improvement. Albeit only noticeable during dialogue and cutscenes.
Also has anyone else noticed all Sharpening gets turned off when dialogue/cutscenes starts, and then gets turned back on once it's done? That's odd.

What the hell have they done to this game??
I've not had any crashes since the patch or noticed any other issue except rain inside. Fps has probably gone down a bit but I haven't noticed as I lock it at 30 fps anyway with a single 7950.

I've verified game files and it was exactly the same. Might re download the full game and try it. 7GB Patch that breaks the game.
If you're using Galaxy there is a rollback option under configure, though any new game saves you made on 1.07 will not work with 1.06.
I only played for a couple of hours last night but didn't notice any issues. Not sure about my FPS as my settings seemed to reset so not sure what I had it all set as before hand...
Maybe they introduced all these problems to annoy the people who've been whining at them for a week for 1.07.

Rollback is greyed out for me for some reason.
The "New" max settings are the old Max settings. The new options only allow you to lower things related to hairworks to make it easier for people to use.
After 3 hours with Afterburner open to graph FPS my minimum fps has dropped 20 overall, average dropped by 10.
This is with everything still maxed out. If I lower Hairworks preset to Low, and AA to X2 or X4 it makes no difference, except my Max FPS now has spikes into the 90s instead of 80s. Averages and minimums stay the same without getting better
