[QUOTE="Admin, post: 63005, member: 1"] Capcom has detailed an upcoming patch for [URL='https://www.ign.com/games/dragons-dogma-ii']Dragon’s Dogmas 2[/URL] that makes a number of changes and fixes, but there’s no mention of the performance mode so many players are waiting for. Following the release of the sprawling action role–playing game in March, players experienced inconsistent framerate performance, particularly on PC. Whereas games like [URL='https://www.ign.com/articles/ff7-rebirth-patch-to-improve-performance-mode-graphics'][U]Final Fantasy 7 Rebirth gives players a Performance or Graphics mode option[/U][/URL] — prioritizing either a consistent framerate or increased graphical output — Dragon's Dogma 2 only has one visual mode across all consoles.

Now, Capcom has announced an upcoming Dragon’s Dogma 2 patch, due out later in April, and confirmed what it sets out to do, but players shouldn’t expect a performance mode. What is included is a nerf to [URL='https://www.ign.com/articles/dragons-dogma-2-players-are-freaking-out-over-a-mysterious-plague-that-turns-pawns-murderous']the pesky dragonsplague illness[/URL], which turns pawns murderous but only exhibits a few subtle symptoms up to that point ([URL='https://www.ign.com/articles/dragons-dogma-2-mod-makes-pesky-dragonsplague-obvious-by-slapping-warning-on-pawn-foreheads']modders have already made things really obvious for PC players by sticking a big number on the follower's forehead[/URL]). Elsewhere, there are adjustments to pawns’ behavior and dialogue, including a tweak to make it less likely for pawns to fall of cliffs. There’s also a note about reducing the frequency of some pawn dialogue, which should make them a little less annoying to be around.
