Aliens: Colonial Marines is verre van een goede game en Gearbox Software is sinds de lancering druk bezig met het patchen van de game om de speelervaring toch wat aangenamer te maken. Begin deze week lieten we je al weten dat in ieder geval het grafische aspect opgepoetst zal gaan worden. Dit is inmiddels bij de PC versie al doorgevoerd, maar de PS3 versie zal hier nog even op moeten wachten.
In de tussentijd is er al wel een nieuwe patch verschenen en deze brengt weer een hoop fixes met zich mee. Hieronder de volledige changelog.
