FBC: Firebreak’s Hotfix 1.6.3 Resolves Unintended Difficulty Spikes via Update 1.006.003
Following the release of FBC: Firebreak’s first major update called “Breakpoint” the other day, the studio has released a follow-up hotfix for consoles and PC on Oct. 1.
The FBC: Firebreak hotfix 1.6.3, which console gamers will see as version 1.006.003, aims to address unintended difficulty spikes and issues with Survive the Hiss and Recovery objectives.
This is a small patch when it comes to file size and even the changelog, so for anyone expecting balance changes or something related to that will need to wait. I mean, it’s been a day since players have experienced the new content and whatnot, so time and feedback is needed before Remedy does anything drastic.
FBC: Firebreak’s Hotifx for Oct. 1 Handles Issues With Unintended Difficulty Spikes via Patch 1.6.3/1.006.003
Fixes & Adjustments
- Fixed an issue with the Lab Rat voice pack subtitles not displaying correctly (Brazilian Portuguese is still missing and will be added later).
- Fixed a bug where the Survive the Hiss objective would not end, causing endless enemy waves.
- Fixed an issue where Powerful Enemies appeared too early in Survive the Hiss. The Powerful Enemy now appears at the end of the event as intended.
- Lowered the enemy spawn rate in the Recovery objective event.
- Reduced the health of Hiss Ranger (Airborne)
- Reduced the number of more resilient enemies in Normal and Easy Threat Levels.
While Remedy Entertainment hasn’t mentioned anything about upcoming balance changes and whatnot, we’d be very surprised if the studio doesn’t release one in the coming weeks.
