Thanks to fans sticking their opinions squarely in the face of Guerrilla Games, the devs are releasing patch 1.27 with control tweaks and better game balance.
Even offline skirmish has been given a touch up to "keep it interesting" for gamers with rubbish Internet. They've also added a "High Precision" mode for analog sensitivity.
"Most importantly, we’ve added functionality to make the process of finding and playing with friends much easier, tweaked the Skirmish Mode to keep it interesting for players with lower-bandwidth network connections, introduced a new ‘High Precision’ option to the controller configuration menu, and improved the overall balance of the game," Eric Boltjes from Guerrilla Games tells Killzone.com.
"There’s also a host of smaller changes as well, but I’ll save that for the change log."
Basically all badges are now unlocked in skirmish, the Higher Precision mode increases the sensitivity of the analog sticks for gamers who find it too slow, you can now manually switch teams to keep matches balanced while keeping score points, and "temporary invulnerability" has been removed from spawning outside base camps.
They also made sure to keep friends that are playing online together can actually stay together, with "squads and their factions are now persistent over multiple games, so friends can keep playing together continuously," said Boltjes. Great stuff.
