Custom key and 120FPS is coming to Wuthering Waves 1.2
Wuthering Waves Version 1.2 “In the Turquoise Moonglow” is coming soon and developers have shared blog post detailing all the changes and improvements coming with the update. This includes the long-awaited custom priority setting and 120 FPS support.
The developers talked in detail about the optimization preview that the v1.2 update brings and the main highlight is the new custom key feature In the Control tab of the in-game Settings, players will notice the Lock Priority option with the following options: Movement Direction, Camera Direction and Distance (see image above). Using this setting, you will now be able to set the auto-lock priorities to your preference.
120 FPS only for some GPUs?
The next big improvement will be the addition of the 120 FPS option on selected computer devices and the community reaction is positive; a popular one reddit a user comment in response to this and the custom lock feature praises the developers for listening. They later added that 120 FPS is likely only for DLSS-supported GPUs; however, another user said that it doesn’t have to do anything with DLSS but with the refresh rate of the player’s monitor. We’ll just have to wait for more details to drop for confirmation on this topic.
Wave plate improvements ahoy
As part of the new store excess Waveplate feature, you will receive Waveplate Crystals after reaching the Waveplate cap (one Waveplate Crystal every 12 minutes until the 480 Waveplate Crystal threshold is hit). These Crystals can be exchanged for Corrugated Plates of equivalent value.
Wuthering Waves v1.2 also introduces the Hoverdroid: Shooter Utility which can be equipped in the Utility Wheel and used by tapping or holding the Basic Attack button. The new one Resonator Showcase feature will allow you to view the meeting scenes of up to three unlocked Resonators. These are some welcome improvements ahead of the major version 1.3 update coming next.
There will also be new trade items in the Illusion Store as an appreciation for the support the community has shown for “Deeps of Illusion Realm”. In addition, the daily quest “Spend 180 Waveplates” will now have 60 Activity points (previously 20) as a reward to help you complete your daily quests faster. Finally, the Xiangli Yao 5-Star Resonator (see the image above) will be given for free to everyone who joins the game during the second half of the Wuthering Waves version 1.2 update.
