To a great cheer among Rangers, Fargo reveals they’ve ”backed off on gun jamming” percentages, which are happening much too frequently given the numbers.
The full changelog will be made available once the patch is live, but they could well contain spoilers so beware. The studio hopes to have Steam achievements next month.
Better localization is also being worked on for the next patch, with a manual French language solution available right now, but it’ll have to be manually removed once this new update is released. Gamers have been complaining that the stats in Wasteland 2 aren’t all that accurate, with percentages seemingly way off.
”Some of you will be happy to know that we backed off on gun jamming % a bit. Was a tad frustrating but sure great when the enemy did,” tweeted Brian Fargo. ”Hope to have an update with Steam achievements in the next month, be prepared because they will be quite odd.”
Gum jams are a plague even though they could be just around 2-5% of a chance to happen. This also affects the percentages when using picklock, or other skills outside of combat, so it’s an underlying problem with random number generation it seems. Hopefully this patch will restore some sanity to the Wastes.
