A patch for PC Aliens vs Predator will be out Monday fixing a slew of issues like audio, stability, save games, and multiplayer niggles.
”We’ve been hard at work listening to and addressing your concerns and are pleased to announce that Monday will see the release of an update to Aliens vs Predator, see below for detail on what will be included,” posted Sega on their blog.
Here’s what Monday’s AvP patch brings:
General:
- Stability improvements to address rare and infrequent hangs
-
Implemented a workaround for missing audio issues with certain hardware (SoundBlaster X-Fi, Realtek onboard, etc.)
-
Fixed save games being lost or corrupted if connection to Steam is lost or if user switches to offline play
Multiplayer:
- Fixed XP being incorrectly affected by offline play (though only in the local stats; this will be corrected next time you connect to multiplayer)
-
Fixed other players sometimes appearing to have the wrong weapon or continuing to fire indefinitely after dying
-
Fixed rare issue where players would be temporarily invisible
-
Fixed some selection of servers and players in menus sometimes being incorrect
Perhaps not quite the patch many want right now but it’s a start. Oh and if you thought guns still firing after player deaths was realistic and cool… no, it was a bug apparently.
