I am happy to read that, I see a lot of people who don't even notice here on the forums. Or maybe they do and take it for granted? I don't. I never expected this increase in my wildest dreams. I hoped it would be like this on release in x years.

Some people have reported performance loss also, but I think many of them haven't realized that the update added few more sliders for lighting/shader (if I remember right) AND reset all settings, so they can be too high for their rigs.

This is indeed what is going on, there are more sliders and you have more choice then before. If I set everything to max I'll have a bad time, but honestly there are very few games where I can do that, if any.
