The new patch for fixes a lot of different problems in the game. There are more improvements than what would typically be found in a 1.1 patch, as the developers at GSC Game World went above and beyond. The patch addresses over 1,800 issues still lingering in the game after launch. Many of these issues would break immersion and make the game less fun. These aren't high-level problems, but they still get attention, which is great for players.
A good portion of the changes in the patch are typical tweaks for performance improvements, which may not feel like the most drastic changes. The patch makes the game run smoother by reducing frame rate drops, improving controller support, and fixing visual glitches on different hardware. However, many new features and improvements make the game so much better. was already a strong experience, but these bigger improvements hidden in the extensive patch notes are just what the game needed.
The patch brings major changes to the game's stealth mechanics, as noted in the patch notes available on the official website,. Before this update, enemies spotted players too easily, even when hiding or trying to stay out of sight. It was almost like they had perfect awareness of their surroundings. This made it hard to use stealth effectively and took away some of the fun and strategy of sneaking around. The developers already said they were working hard on the problem, and it's apparently been fixed.
This patch isn't just about changing how far enemies can see; it also tweaks how NPCs respond to their surroundings and the player's actions. The update improves how enemy NPCs detect players, making them less likely to notice players right away, even if they're crouching or hiding well. The goal was to create a more believable stealth system where careful planning and skill are rewarded instead of being let down by overly alert enemies.
Of course, the updates in Patch 1.1 for also fix performance and stability while playing the game. The patch
