Bug Fixing Update - April 2016

(RazielWarmonic) #1

Proxy seems suspicious, gaining Prime Suspect status in the Rogue en Vogue event. That hasn’t stopped her and the other engineers from crushing a few sneaky bugs in this month’s Bug Fixing update, however.

Check out the list of fixes -

Notable Bug Fixes

  • Fixed bug where the SNITCH Device’s vertical range was unlimited
  • Vertical range now matches the horizontal range
  • Fixed bug where the SNITCH Device would float in mid-air if thrown into an Airstrike
  • Fixed bug where C4 could occasionally be instantly planted
  • Fixed bug where Ammo Stations and Healing Stations could work outside of their intended range
  • Fixed bug where giving someone ammo by using an Ammo Station did not award you the achievement “Hoarder”
  • Fixed bug where using Phoenix’s ‘Healing Pulse’ did not count towards the ‘Nurse’ achievement requirements
  • Fixed bug where several Badges were granted incorrectly in Execution Mode
  • Previously they were calculated over an entire round, rather than within a specified time
  • Fixed bug where players could receive the Honor Guard Badge every 15 seconds
  • Fixed bug where an obsolete Badge (Backstabber) was appearing on the Badge screen
  • Replaced the Gold Spec Ops Badge with the Bronze equivalent to better match the requirements

Hehe, I found the SNITCH fix before the patch notes were out.
Too bad though, I’ve gotten fond of hiding the little bugger.

Does this apply for Aura’s healing station as well? That didn’t unlock it for me either, I had to use a pack throwing merc.

You forgot a bug

  • Fixed in game crosshairs being higher than the pixel where bullets exit the gun.
  • This so people don’t have to use crosshair overlays in order to actually hit people in the head.

Nothing to see here again. Nader damaging friendly EV is waiting to get fixed for 4 years.

That does explain why I haven’t managed to get a Backstab badge with 1,200 knife kills…

Too bad about the snitch… I liked hiding it on high buildings.

(AlbinoFish) #10

Yesss
They fixed the Honor Guard bug

Still no fix for dropping the objective but still having it in your hand so you have to drop it again… Stoker’s molotov sometimes does impact damage then no flames… or doesn’t even do damage at all… would be cool to see these fixed…

This new update has messed with the anti cheat and has gotten me kicked from 3 games for “game security error” I do not run any programs that would or could interfere with the game itself apart from the steam overlay.

Well I got to have one day with Aimee and the SNITCH glitch before it was fixed. Had a match where I went 31-11 with her in one stopwatch half within one of my first 2 or 3 games using her.

That was also with her default no augment card.

800mb of bugfixes… what kind of broken game i was playing then wtf -.-?

worst thing is… no new maps, no molotov fixes, bet c4 still bugs and dont get planted… meh update at best.

(NetflixandKill) #16

I thought it said in some badge descriptions “within 15 seconds or an entire round of execution”. Was that not intended?

(SereneFlight) #17

Can we really trust her fixing bugs instead of creating new ones?

15 seconds in a same life = Objective and Stopwatch.
However, I believe they mean badges like Triple Kill and Revive Spree.

The size is because of Unreal Engine 3. I was confused too, before @Faraleth and others explained to me that game engine in its “unmodified” form builds this huge updates.

I believe devs said they’ll try modify it and make the updates smaller in the future.

Purpose of this update is just to fix things. There’s going to be bigger one after the event ends.
