Medal of Honor: Warfighter - Day-One-Patch behebt zahlreiche Bugs im Shooter

Der erste Patch zu MoH: Warfighter behebt zahlreiche Bugs und Fehler im Spiel.

Ab heute ist der Ego-Shooter Medal of Honor: Warfighterbereits in den USA spielbar. Für einen reibungslosen Start empfiehlt der Publisher Electronic Arts allerdings dringend, den Day-1-Patch zu installieren. Dieser behebt eine gehörige Anzahl an Fehlern, sowohl im Mehrspielermodus als auch in der Kampagne.

Neben zwei neuen Funktionen, Freunde können direkt im Spiel hinzugefügt werden und Mitspieler können während eines Spiels auch in Platoons eingeladen werden, behebt das Spiel vor allem Unmengen an Fehlern. In der Kampagne ist der Schwierigkeitsgrad jetzt nicht mehr automatisch auf Leicht gestellt, das allgemeine Matchmaking wurde verbessert und auch am Balancing der Waffen wurde gearbeitet.

Auf dem PC sollten jetzt keine Gamepad-Symbole angezeigt werden, wenn kein Gamepad angeschlossen ist und das Mausrad funktioniert ab sofort mit allen Listen im Spiel. Auf der Xbox 360 wurde vor allem an der Stabilität geschraubt. Electronic Arts legt allen Spielern ans Herz, den Patch so schnell wie möglich zu installieren.

Auf dem PC sollte sich das Spiel automatisch über Origin aktuallisieren, auf den Konsolen steht der Patch auf dem PlayStation Network und Xbox Live zur Verfügung.

Medal of Honor: Warfighter erscheint am 25. Oktober 2012 in Deutschland für PC, Xbox 360 und PlayStation 3.
