Aliens Fireteam Elite 2 Update 1.003

A new hotfix is available for Aliens Fireteam Elite 2 on all platforms, and this brings crash fixes and squashes a few other bugs.

Console gamers will see the file as Aliens Fireteam Elite 2 update 1.003, and this is a small download. While the patch does resolve some issues, there are still some that persist, as the developers also share plans for the future.

Aliens Fireteam Elite 2 New Hotfix Fixes Replication Bug

Weapons/Gameplay 

  • Fixed a replication bug that was causing weapons to not do damage. 
  • Fixed an issue with incorrect starting ammo applied by attachments and perks.

Crash Fixes 

  • Fixed a crash that could occur when a Companion Bot attempted to revive you.   

The known issues the dev team is looking into has been revealed as well.

Known Issues 

  • This partial rollback re-introduces a previously fixed bug where you can overheat the EVI-87 Zvezda Plasma Rifle without ever firing a shot if you rapidly activate the fire button. 
  • Jackpot has a bad interaction with heat weapons that could cause it to get into a bad state, we’ve temporarily changed it so it has no effect on heat weapons. 
  • We are testing longer term changes for the next update that will avoid getting players in this state and improve how the perk is balanced overall. 

Per Cold Iron, the next major patch is planned for late October, and it will include a “range of fixes and improvements aimed at making the overall experience better.” More info about it will be shared by the devs as we get closer to release.

In other shooter news, it seems Ready or Not will be getting a story mode experience soon, as the devs trademarked it under the name “Warrants.”
