Quoting: BrissePlayed 10 hours already. First impressions were not good with major stuttering while compiling shaders but after running around for several minutes and putting up with the stuttering it finally goes away as most of the level has been explored and the shaders are saved to disk cache.
It's odd, I was fully expecting it to be stuttery, but even on my first attempt at that particular level, I didn't really see any.
Might be that NVIDIA has more readily available shader state(?) caches to be shared by Steam than AMD.

Quoting: rustybroomhandleWarframe has a bug for me where the audio will get all garbled after an hour or so, like it's suddenly under water. Hopefully this will fix that too. It's a minor annoyance as it's easy to make go away, but still would be nice to have fixed.
I have this too and I wondered if this is a common thing. Looks like it is.
