So I am trying to play this on Xbox one S via disc. Key word is TRYING ! Omg what a god damn bug fest this is on the One. Non stop audio glitches and cutouts , with the occasional out right game freeze and have to reboot.
Has anyone had any luck with this on a last gen console ? I downloaded at least a 35gb patch any probably more . This game is like 7 months old and this is the best Techland can muster for updates ? I purposely waited a while cause i heard it was iffy at launch too and still this buggy mess. I want to keep playing because its decent when it runs but am going to shelve for now and wait for more updates or play on a series x when i get one hopefully soonish.
The One S is how I played the game the first time. It was the Enhanced Edition disc with The Following included. It worked without any issues. I haven't tried it on my One S since the recent patches. I tried it out on my One X and I didn't notice any problems, but I didn't start the game over from scratch. I know they made alterations to the visuals, even on One S. They changed the contrast and color saturation, although I think the resolution remained the same.
I assume you've tried the hard reset fix, which is what most people seem to recommend whenever a game starts performing badly after a patch. Also, if I remember correctly, this was one of the game (at launch) which had problems if you played it while connected to the internet. That got fixed early, but perhaps the latest patch brought some of that back on the One S. Maybe try to disconnect and see if anything changes.
I can't do it right now, since I'd have to download the patch for my One S, which is currently in storage, but I can try to reinstall this in the next day or two and see if I get the same problems, or if the issue is only with your machine.
