This was certainly unexpected

Tap for spoilerOUTFITS The following outfits are now available to all players. The outfits can be accessed and equipped from the Control Point in the Central Executive Sector area.

• Astral Dive Suit (formerly a pre-order exclusive) • Tactical Response Gear (formerly a pre-order exclusive) • Urban Response Gear (formerly a pre-order exclusive)

MISSIONS All players will receive the mission Dr. Yoshimi Tokui’s Guided Imagery Experience, featuring voiceover by Hideo Kojima. The mission is playable when you pick up the Dr Tokui Tapes collectible in the Extrasensory Lab of the Research Sector. (This mission was previously exclusive to the PlayStation 4 Digital Deluxe version of Control.)

GRAPHICS • Added HDR support • Added new Ultra ray tracing preset, which gets you more rays per pixel and higher temporal stability • Added ultrawide monitor support for up to 48:9 monitors • Added an FOV scaling setting for the gameplay camera • Updated SDR to 10bit (from 8bit), which reduces visible color banding • Improved graphics adapter detection at startup, with automatic selection between DX11 and DX12 • Implemented screen aspect ratio fixes for ultrawide monitors • Your current monitor resolution can now reliably be selected from the screen resolution and rendering resolution menus • Added rendering resolution support beyond 4K • Implemented texture streaming fixes • Ray tracing bug fixes

DLSS SUPPORT • Added DLSS support for arbitrary resolutions • Added DLAA support • Updated DLSS to DLSS 3.7, with higher temporal stability • Film grain added back to DLSS SR • Fixed shadow resolution when DLSS is enabled • Added resolution dependent mip map bias for DLSS. This enhances texture quality, for example when applying the DLSS Performance setting.

GENERAL • Updated the audio on cinematics and end credits to remove unintended channel mixing. You will no longer hear anything that isn’t intended to be heard. (It wasn’t the Hiss, it was us. Sorry.) • Several bug and crash fixes

Time to start control again. I got a good bit through on the switch but really felt that I was missing out because the game is so beautiful.

Added ultrawide monitor support for up to 48:9 monitors

Is any of this in the unofficial dev mod, or should that still be used?

[–] [email protected] 0 points 1 day ago (1 children)

No idea. I have control but never played it

[–] [email protected] 2 points 1 day ago (1 children)

Same here, acquired through Epic Games' giveaways. That was so bizarre to watch, haha: Dr. Yoshimi Tokui's Guided Imagery Experience / Secret Mission // CONTROL

You really should play it. It's such a good SCP game. I wish they would make more like it.

[–] [email protected] 1 points 1 day ago (1 children)

Hmm... Special Containment Procedures? What other games are good in this sub-genre?

[–] SupraMario 3 points 1 day ago (2 children)

Secure. Contain. Protect.

Other one I think is Prey. It sorta falls into the genre.

[–] [email protected] 2 points 21 hours ago (1 children)

Ooh, yes, the new Prey was a terrifying, incredible title! It's almost too much for me to bear replaying, even, though it was incredibly gripping and is amazingly well-done.

[–] SupraMario 2 points 19 hours ago (1 children)

Yea it was something I didn't touch for a while, as I thought it was something to do with another title called prey which wasn't that good.

[–] [email protected] 1 points 9 hours ago (1 children)

You didn't like Prey?!?! Did you maybe take it at too hard of a difficulty? It was incredible!

[–] SupraMario 1 points 3 hours ago (1 children)

The original one, not the second SCP one. The scp one in space was incredible and I loved it. The first one from 2006 was terrible.

[–] [email protected] 1 points 53 minutes ago

Oh, I was referring to the second one, yeah.

[–] [email protected] 3 points 1 day ago

Prey is a great game regardless. Anyone not playing it is missing out.
