Utile per incrementare la stabilità del multiplayer!
Con il debutto nei negozi di Killzone 3, il team Guerrilla Games ha subito rilasciato un aggiornamento alla versione 1.03 come già annunciato in precendenza.
Molte delle caratteristiche introdotte sono frutto della sessione Beta chiusa lo scorso 15 Febbraio, altre sono necessarie per migliorare nella campagna la visione delle cut-scene in diverse lingue, che provocava sfasamento dell’audio e la stabilità del supporto Move e Sharp Shooter.
Nel frattempo si è anche resa necessaria un’attività di manutenzione dei server come pubblicato via twitter per cui chi sta tentando nel frattempo di entrare in una partita della modalità multigiocatore online potrebbe ricevere l’errore di mancata connessione.
Ricordiamo che Killzone 3 è disponibile da oggi in tutti i negozi italiani anche in versione Collector’s e Helghast Edition.
Di seguito la lista delle novità apportate al titolo in dettaglio:
Welcome to the first of several patches planned for Killzone 3! Along with updates to multiplayer, you can also expect to find fixes for the campaign and enhancements to other portions of the game, such as Playstation Move support, through future patches as well. To get the best Killzone 3 experience, be sure to keep Killzone 3 up to date, even if you plan to play offline
