Deus Ex: Human Revolution Patches Released

Eidos Montreal has already managed to squeeze out two patches for Deus Ex: Human Revolution since its release on Tuesday, including a small one that addressed startup and game save slot issues and a meatier one that dramatically reduces loading screen times, tweaks mouse sensitivity settings, and more. The notes from the latter, which just went live this afternoon:

– A frequent issue for AMD/ATI hardware users that can cause the game to crash on startup.

– Improvements to loading speed. The speed increase depends on machine spec and settings, but loading time improvements of over 50% have been measured on some machines.

– Some control fixes:
 – Diagonal movement is no longer faster as intended.
 – Adjustments have been made to mouse sensitivity in response to user feedback.
  – Mouse sensitivity for X and Y axis can still be configured separately, but is now consistent when set to default settings.
  – The range of settings for mouse sensitivity has been adjusted to provide for more accurate adjusting.
  – The default mouse sensitivity has been altered to be somewhat less sensitive.
