It happens on other weapons too, if you upgrade the recoil too much.

I play on a R9 270X, with the 17.1.1 driver, and my only problem is that most water surfaces flicker a bit. No crashes other than the nightvision loading one.

Hi,
There is a bug(or a questionable design choice) with cars and campfires. Tuching them, or sometimes only going close, explodes the car instantly. Eg. in Rostock Factory from the yard where you find the first dead duty guy, going to the X-14 entrance there is an alley with a campfire, and it seems to be impossible to pass through to it with a car, despite there seems to be enough space. At least it is with the military cabrio jeep.

I think you only have to start a new game if you update from 1.4000. I used 1.4001 with the deleted files restored, updated to 1.4002, and palyed on for 4-5 hours, without problem. Of course that doesn't mean there couldn't be problems later, but we'll see.

That looks like the usual, unjustified amount of darkness in this game. I don't know who thought it was a good idea to make things so dark that you need to use the flashlight or nightvision even at noon.

But DC fixed the brightness, gamma, and contrast sliders, so you can play around with those to get a usable light level. (Although the colors overall will probably be a bit more washed out.)

If you mean the AK that you can pick up to kill the sniper on the bridge, I think that is a unique one, That has low durability. I haven't noticed fast degradation on any other weapon.

Hi!
Awesome work guys!

So far I have only one problem. The water surfaces flicker in DX 11 and 10. On DX9 and below it's good.
It's on the 1.4001 patch, with the missing db files replaced.
I tried to horse around in the settings, but haven't found a soultion yet, short of changing the render mode.
I use an R9 270x, and updated the driver about a month ago.

And a Nice To Have feature suggestion: Could you enable/implement context menu (AKA right click menu) on the loot screen? Like it was in CoP.
Eg. if you only want to loot the ammo from weapon on a corpse, now you have to: open loot screen -> take weapon -> close loot screen -> open inventory -> unload weapon -> drop weapon (or put it back in the corpse, because I don't like to litter :D )
In CoP you could: Open loot screen -> unload weapon -> take ammo.
It'd be a nice quality of life upgrade.

Pretty much.

In CoP you could right click a gun in a corpse's inventory, and unload it, just like you can do it in your own inventory. Then you could only take the ammo.

No need to loot weapon > go to inventory > unload weapon > drop weapon > repeat at next corpse.

Hi Dez!
This is definitely one of the best mods ever created.

One thing that annoys me is that in order to loot ammo from the weapons of dead enemies, you have to pick up the weapon unload it then throw it away. In DC will it be possible to unload the wepons in the body's inventory, and only take the ammo, like it was in CoP?
