The Callisto Protocol just had a patch with a new hardcore mode but more importantly, another update came dedicated to the #SteamDeck. You gotta love it when developers put some time and effort into Steam Deck support so I decided it was time for another look. Heres the whole first chapter.Its getting very close to a smooth 30FPS now, not quite there but close! Valve also set it as Steam Deck Verified now, although I dont agree yet with that rating due to it still repeatedly dipping below 30FPS - thats supposed to be their minimum floor. This was also running on the SSD, not an SD Card.Buy from Humble Store with my partner link to support the channel: https://www.humblebundle.com/store?partner=gamingonlinuxFollow me in these places:Mastodon: https://mastodon.social/@gamingonlinuxTwitter: https://www.twitter.com/gamingonlinuxRead news: https://www.gamingonlinux.com  Support me: https://www.patreon.com/liamdawe  Join Discord: https://discord.gg/AghnYbMjYgA reminder: this channel and the content is done entirely by one person.

I really hope for a Steam Deck dedicated update for Hogwarts soon. It seems to run really well or good but…it’s not exactly there yet but it’s so close. {looking over to my Hogwarts preloaded SteamDeck} I can’t wait

At least the shader compilation stutters should get sorted as Valve releases the pre-complied shader cache for the game in the coming week. After that, the ball will be in the developer's court for further optimizing the game for not just SD but PC in general.

Yeah I saw some footage from others, looked rough!

I'm pleasantly surprised by high profile studios working on Steam Deck optimizations at all. For that to happen, the platform has to be relevant enough for them to justify the effort. I wonder how many units are out there by now, would love to see official sales figures. I believe Valve also actively approaches developers with recommendations on how to obtain a verified status, is that correct? Good news either way.

@SpoilerAlert The only reason why I think they are fixing this game is because theywant to save face and not be the laughing stock of the popularity of Dead Space Remake who once they're "baby." Remember, most of these people who once made the original Dead Space and left to form this new company to make The Callisto Protocol.

Gotta say, looking at the game play segment. Looks much more playable. Had it not happened 2 months late, could have been a similar situation to Elden Ring were the experience is more stable on deck then desktop. Ah well. I'll wait for a sale.

Devs optimizing their game or creating a custom profile for Steam Deck really should aim for 40fps performance. Given the Steam Deck's ability to lower the refresh rate to 40hz, the visual difference between 30fps and 40fps is quite dramatic.

[ 2023-02-08 17:24:14Z ] 👍 0

I wish they aimed for 40 so any drops will be less noticeable, but when optimizing for mobile hardware you need every last drop and sometimes you cant do higher than 30 since you can barely hit that

I am not going to worry about Deck performance until the game comes down in price 👍

That's super interesting, I just finished Callisto on my PC last week! I enjoyed it a lot, now I'm waiting for a sale on Dead Space, or for RE4 to come out to keep the hype train rolling.

I can't seem to get the update. It says it's 11GB, and I have about 50GB left on my SD Card, but it refuses to update because of "not enough space on drive."

[ 2023-02-09 17:56:53Z ] 👍 0

You probably have to reinstall it, i had the same problem and that's because the update requires you to have around 70GB freed for no reason. Reinstalling it or getting more space available should fix it.

It's weird but sometimes the update requires an equivalent to the whole game size for the update. Happened to me with Elden Ring actually. A fairly small update only worked once i had more that 50gb left on the deck... 2 solutions : - freeing some space - delete and install the game again

"Steam Deck" isn't a person. Why does everyone drop the "the", as if we're talking about someone instead of something? It's just weird.

"steam deck" is a platform

[ 2023-02-09 17:52:33Z ]👍 0

Have been playing on the steam Deck and love the game so far. Now the fonts are way more readable than before and that's a plus for me. It might stutter every now and then but I would still call it playable because playing this on the airplane is just a next level experience.

[ 2023-02-10 16:20:02Z ]👍 1

People saying the game has been optimised for deck are deluded, all the devs have done is lock the game to 30, something I could do myself, turn every graphic setting to low or off, something I could have done myself, and hid the benchmark so you can’t see it dip below 30 still, in my opinion there is no optimisation here it was running at 30 for me before this update on locked low settings

[ 2023-05-01 16:01:29Z ] 👍 0

I do think it was dipping alot more with uneven frametime. So it's better in that regard. But yeah otherwise u right 30 fps all low is not all that ideal. Medium with 40fps would of been the best. I think 4 cores and 8 threads are just too weak for these games

@@gamingonlinux If you don't like the FSR2 implementation, you can always try to enable Unreal 4's TSR in the ini. Might get better visuals results and/or performance.
