XCOM 2: Performance-Patch veröffentlicht

Außerdem mit Balancing-Anpassungen und mehr.

Dank des ersten großen Patches sollte XCOM 2 nun besser auf eurem PC laufen.

„Das XCOM-Team hat hart daran gearbeitet, die Performance-, Balancing- und Stabilitätsprobleme zu beheben, von denen uns die Fans berichtet haben", heißt es.

„Wir werden XCOM 2 in den kommenden Monaten mit zusätzlichen Updates und Patches weiter verbessern."

Es gibt zum Beispiel den „Zip Mode" als neue Option. Hier werden bestimmte Animation abseits der normalen Bewegungen beschleunigt, um für ein „schnelleres" Spielerlebnis zu sorgen. Weiterhin unterstützt das Spiel nun SLI sowie Crossfire.

Mit dem Patch schwächt man außerdem die Mimic Beacons ab. Diese konnten die Form eines XCOM-Soldaten annehmen und das Feuer auf sich ziehen. Nun ist es ihnen aber nicht mehr möglich, in Deckung zu gehen und sie werden immer vom Feindfeuer getroffen.

Wenn ihr Mods verwendet, solltet ihr das Spiel starten, es beenden und noch mal starten, um sicherzustellen, dass der Patch auch runtergeladen wird. Weiterhin es möglich, dass einige Mods anschließend nicht mehr funktionieren könnten.

Alle Patch Notes seht ihr nachfolgend:
