I don't monitor my FPS constantly but my general impression is a noticeable improvement in performance and graphical quality as I did four missions, a Salvage and 3 Power Restore, which I am very familiar with so I knew what to expect. Before the update I was getting frequent stretches of repetitious hitches in the motion continuity, sort of like brief intermittent forward rubber-banding -- none of which occurred in my recent three hour session. All was very, very smooth, better than I can remember since Horizons, evincing a very acceptable frame rate. Concourse and settlements were not problematic, nor was my carrier's interior.
All of the missions were of the type that usually provide scavvy fodder for my sniper, but in three of the four, none even showed up. The fourth and last was normal in that regard, with the usual wave of two ships dropping more party-goers just as I finished off the first bunch. But despite killing them all, no bonus bounty was tallied or rewarded. Hmmm.
I was impressed with the apparent changes to settlement interior and exterior lighting as well as on stations and the carrier. To my eye, which is pretty sensitive to such after a 45 year career as an artist, the lighting looks much better balanced. Even the flashlight -- which previously I found to be glaring and unpleasant -- was better integrated into the overall lighting scheme. It was not only more attractive but easier on the eyes over the length of the session.
I'm currently running a modiified Ultra setup, Bloom and Blur Off, on a 6Gb GTX 1660, kind of min requirement but it does well enough pushing the pixels to my 2K and 1080p dual monitor arrangement.
