Killzone 3, Guerrilla rilascia la patch 1.10

Patch 1.10 per Killzone 3. Lo sparatutto di Guerilla Games, esclusivo per PlayStation 3, si aggiorna con numerose caratteristiche aggiuntive e correzione di vari bug. Adesso, tra le altre cose, si potrà riprodurre la propria playlist mp3 durante le partite.
A seguire la lunghissima lista (in lingua inglese) delle modifiche.

NEW FEATURES

• Custom Games, Part 2. Additional information can be found at the bottom of the article, but it will include: choosing abilities, weapons and careers, as well as toggling functionality such as ribbons, skills and explosives.

• Squad Only Chat. This is still an experimental feature and may not always function as expected.
• Playing Audio/Music from your PS3 during MP games.

Marksman Improvements:

• Cloak rippling effect has been increased.
• Cloak now ripples with increased intensity when firing non silenced weapons.
• Transition from uncloaked to cloaked has been extended.
• A cloak fade transition between moving and not-moving has been introduced (player no longer snaps out of view).
• Distance Indicator for off-screen medics.
• Matchmaking. We will now make players switch faction automatically at the end of a round if teams are unbalanced. Note that this will only affect players that are not in a squad or that have sent an invite to create a squad, and that it will not happen at all in Clan games or Custom Games.
• You can now only submit another grief report for the same person if at least 7 minutes have elapsed since the previous one.
