nipsen: 1.07 ps4 is based on the 1302131 build from about two weeks ago.
Which is stupendously fast for a patch-approval at Sony.
The return times for sorting out problems based on feedback - that admittedly Sony q&a folks were paid, by our money, to find - is also very short. Normally when you're dealing with engine tweaks (rather than typos in the text-files), this is a different coding path - and HG has an efficient enough team to do it at the same time. After sorting through unstructured feedback from users.
Because remember that what you have in the experimental build now is what they sorted out after 1 week. I'll try to contain my fanboy admiration here, but I've "worked with" enough developers as a tester to know how comically unusual this is.
As a former game developer, I am impressed with the speed in which they are trying to fix the issues. I have seen some games where the fix is worse for the game then the problem it was trying to fix. Kudos to Hello Games for the fast work.Which is stupendously fast for a patch-approval at Sony.
