Halo: Master Chief Collection: Neuer 523MB Patch verbessert Matchmaking & mehr
Microsoft hat einen weiteren Patch für Halo: The Master Chief Collection veröffentlicht, der dieses Mal 523MB groß ist. Der neue Patch verbessert vor allem das Matchmaking, das seit Erscheinen der Halo-Collection für Probleme sorgt. Daneben werden weitere kleine Probleme gelöst, die zum Beispiel die Lobby, Stabilität oder Costum Games betreffen. Weitere Patches werden in Zukunft folgen.
Erst Anfang der Woche richtete sich Bonnie Ross, Chefin des Entwicklers 343 Industries, in einem offenen Brief an die Spieler und entschuldigte sich für die technischen Probleme der Halo-Collection.
Damit steht Bonnie Ross aber nicht alleine da. Nicht nur Halo: The Master Chief Collection hat mit schwerwiegenden technischen Problemen zu kämpfen, auch die Veröffentlichung des PS4-Racers DriveClub war gelinde gesagt eine kleine Katastrophe und mit Assassin’s Creed Unity hat Ubisoft ein mit Bugs durchzogenes Spiel veröffentlicht und erntete darauf einen Shitstorm. Als Entschuldigung und zur Versöhnung gibt es von Ubisoft nun ein Gratis-Spiel für alle Käufer von AC: Unity.
