Thank you all for your support, feedback and reviews so far. It's been incredible to see your reactions to the team's work since launch, and we’re committed to improving your experience. We have now deployed a hotfix for Steam and Rift users which addresses some of the issues reported by the community. Here’s a breakdown of what’s included:

Graphics Improvements

Gun Rotation Options

• Adjusted the default gun angle and introduced a manual adjustment option.

Continuous Rotation Speed

• Added an adjustable rotation speed option in the menu, giving more control over movement, and implemented in-game.

Upcoming fixes
Additional fixes are currently in progress and planned for release in the next update. These include, among others:

Thank you for your patience and for helping us make Metro Awakening even better!

Survivors, it's great to see so many of you diving into Metro Awakening on Steam.

If you’re experiencing any crashes or performance issues, below are a few tips to improve stability and ensure you get the most out of your time in the Metro:

1. First, make sure SteamVR is set as your default OpenXR runtime rather than Windows Mixed Reality (WMR), Oculus, or Viveport. This can boost performance and prevent crashes;
   
2. Some programs, like VR Toolkit, OpenXR Toolkit, or ReShade, can interfere with the game, Try disabling them to improve stability;
   
3. Turning off overlays and certain OpenXR API layers may also help with performance;
   
4. Additionally, setting your Spectator Screen to 'Off' can also help maintain smooth gameplay.
