Re: Dead Space 3 - PC - Flash Light Does Not Cast Shadows

There are 3 major graphical problems in this new sequel... I now this game is just a console port and it had to be optimized (downgraded visuals) in order to gain performance for the choppy console hardware but there are certain things that do not require extra PC performance to show up:

-Isaac helmet flashlight: Is kinda cool when you first arrive at the crashed ship in chapter 3 or 4 (I don't remember), the lightsource from Isaac's helmet looks outstanding and it really helps in the darkest areas, but for some reason after chapter 5, there's not more helmet flashlight.. never again.

-There is a problem with SSAO, it doesn't work in Tau Volantis, it seems that designers didn't like it the way SSAO blends with white snow. But come on!, it looks awful for a 2013 game when an object does not cast any shadow... it looks like it's floating in the air.

-Weapon Flashlight: There's nothing more to say, even dead space 1 had this very basic effect...... there are parts when SSAO is not working, and without the shadows being casted by the flashligt, it looks like a 90s game. 

Certainly those are things that can be easily fixed via patch.

Thank you Basti.     Any Idea as to when the patch will be released?

Hello. So, any news as to the date you plan to release the patch?

a new patch? Where was the first one LOL?

Hello. It's been over a month since your reply. Do you even plan to fix the shadows issue?

I wouldn't mind if you decided against releasing a patch. But I cannot accept the lack of response. C'mon!
