Elden Ring: That brings the update
Patch 1.02.1 has been released for PC and PS5 and fixes some of the bugs already reported on Friday. One was aware of the problem of too high mouse sensitivity, so the changelog now also states that mouse operation has been improved. The startup issues related to Easy Anti Cheat (EAC) have also been “improved”. When using certain characters in the character name, EAC would not start. There also seems to be a first fix for stuttering. According to the changelog, the number of files that need to be loaded when entering a new area has been reduced.
There are also changes on the PS5. How to fix a bug that caused certain unexpected game crashes. There is no news on the subject of PS5 savegames. In some cases, the game data is not saved correctly, for example if the PS5 console is unexpectedly switched off during a game or in sleep mode. Until another update is released, you should save your game manually by quitting it regularly.
The team would continue to work on improvements to the game based on player feedback. This definitely includes the topic of the frame rate or general performance-related problems, which are expressed in micro stuttering, often in boss fights. It only says in very general terms that they are “constantly working to improve the game so that it can be played comfortably on different PC environments and platforms”.
