SEGA and Gearbox have been hard at work fixing Aliens: Colonial Marines post-launch. A patch went live for Xbox 360 and PlayStation 3 users this week, promising to smooth over a few of the technical complaints that players were experiencing.
The update, which is detailed below, was also released for PC users via Steam. It includes additional tweaks, some of which will soon be hitting consoles, such as improved textures. PC-only bugs and mouse smoothing options have also been added.
A second update for console users went live shortly after the deployment of the first one, which also fixes animation glitches in the Xenomorphs (i.e. the 'Jazz Hands'), adds an increased light radius for the shoulder lamp and improves enemy and friendly AI.
Here's a full list from Gearbox's blog:
General
- Added additional safeguards to better protect save data.
- Resolved an issue where a player's level could sometimes appear incorrect when backing out of a party.
- Addressed several scenarios under which players could spawn without a weapon.
- Changes to better prevent audio from sometimes cutting out during end of mission cinematics.
- Fixed issue where Xeno death animation was not properly calculating momentum of the killing blow.
- Smart Gun animation now properly tracks targets.
- Addressed some instances where Xenos would display erratic animations.
- Increased light radius for player's shoulder lamp.
- Adjusted aim assist to better reflect player input.
- Miscellaneous bug fixes.
Campaign
- Tweaked enemy and friendly AI to be more aggressive and responsive.
- Modified campaign difficulty to account for improved AI responsiveness.
- Improved enemy collision detection regarding doors and Power Loader.
- Players will no longer bleed out immediately when downed in a Power Loader.
Versus
- Increased duration of Lurker Pounce Challenge “Cat-Like Reflexes” from 10 to 20 seconds.
- Fixed issue where certain multiplayer challenges would not unlock properly for all characters.
- Crusher pick-ups now correctly appear as highlighted for clients.
