14 DAY TRIAL // Developer Respawn Entertainment has released the full scoop on the latest patch for the PC and Xbox One versions of its hugely successful first-person shooter, Titanfall, and it seems to be introducing a lot more than just the Black Market.
Players will be able to make use of a new, in-game currency system, to purchase Titan decals (including eight new ones) as well as to buy and sell Burn Cards in the Black Market, which the developer promises doesn't mean that microtransactions will rear their ugly head in the game.
Additionally, players will be able to enjoy a couple of new Daily Challenges, but most of all, a sizable list of bug fixes that will improve their overall experience, starting tomorrow, July 31.
Players will be able to collect up to three new Daily Challenges every day, with a maximum total of 9 active ones available at any one time.
Furthermore, the Campaign mode will be moved with the other existing game mode, and will rotate through all maps over and over, and gamers will be able to join at any point.
The patch will add a message whenever a friendly Pilot with the flag jumps on your Titan, to let you know that you should get moving in Capture the Flag mode.
The Xbox One version of the game will get achievements for the Frontier's Edge DLC, coming out tomorrow as well, and the PC version of the first-person shooter will get better multi-GPU support.
The list of bug fixes is pretty extensive, and it concerns all platforms. Starting tomorrow, Titan decal unlocks will no longer show up repeatedly, and selecting a game mode will take you directly to the lobby.
Wi-Fi hacking now counts toward Spectre leeching for stats / challenges / insignias, and an issue where players earned too much XP and wrapped around and reset their level has now been fixed.
A rare bug where an invincible Titan would be left roaming around the map after a player died upon ejected has been addressed, as well as a case where players would get smashed into a wall while rodeoing, becoming unable to shoot through the Titan.
Many framerate and bandwidth optimizations have been squeezed into the game in order to provide a smoother and more enjoyable experience, as well as other such quality of life fixes, including incorrect or missing impact sounds from explosions, including the Arc Cannon and Cluster Rockets.
Titanfall users on the Xbox 360 will have to wait a little longer for the patch to arrive, around a month if the last one is any indication, and Xbox One and PC owners will be able to enjoy it starting tomorrow, July 31.
