Gisteren lieten we jullie al weten dat de Angel City’s Most Wanted DLC beschikbaar was voor Titanfall 2 door middel van een update. De patch nam buiten de extra map ook aardig wat verbeteringen en nieuwe features met zich mee.

Respawn Entertainment heeft goed geluisterd naar de feedback van gamers en heeft er voor gezorgd dat, dankzij de nieuwe patch, er verschillende bugs zijn opgelost. Tevens zijn er een aantal gameplay-tweaks doorgevoerd en zijn sommige wapens beter gebalanceerd. De volledige lijst is als volgt:

New features

  • Added FOV slider to console, increased FOV maximum to 110 on all platforms.
  • PS4 streaming for Networks: PS4 users who are streaming will have a new icon next to them, other users can hit a button to view the stream.
  • Better mod tools for Networks: Mods can now mute people for the whole room and change the room voice mode to be mods-only.
  • You can now toggle between having a 2D or 3D style damage indicator in the HUD options.
  • Added a new in-game store to purchase Prime Titans, Titan Art Packs, Callsign Pack, and Camo Pack. Please note, all purchasable items are cosmetic only and do not effect game balance.
