In the first update of 2025, the developers of S.T.A.L.K.E.R. 2: Heart of Chornobyl eliminated “the most critical problems”, according to users reviews in Steam and at other sites.
The fight against the compilation of the shaders, according to the developers, was especially difficult
The GSC “cured” the departures and hoverings during the compilation of the shaaders, “shut up” the memory of the memory at the Rostock factory, solved the problem of missing conservations on the Xbox and eliminated the bug with animations in the interface that led to the application failures.
In addition, users should no longer encounter performance degradation during firing/aiming at conservation with a large amount of the time played.
