Anthem bekommt heute Riesen-Update, Fans zeigen sich optimistisch
Anthem - Riesen-Update will heute viele Kritikpunkte angehen, Fans optimistisch
Mit Patch 1.0.3 greift Bioware zahlreiche Problemstellen von Anthem an. Unter anderem geht es an den Loot, das Item-Scaling sowie die Stabilität und Performance.
Einige Highlights
Loot-Verbesserungen: Level-30-Spieler erhalten mit Update 1.0.3 keine Loot-Drops gewöhnlicher und ungewöhnlicher Seltenheitsstufe mehr. Somit sehen Endgame-Charaktere keine wertlosen weißen und grünen Items mehr als Missions- und Festungs-Beute.
Gegner-Anpassungen: Unter anderem sind die berüchtigten Titans nun etwas leichter zu besiegen, da beispielsweise die Zeit verlängert wurde, an denen Schwachstellen angreifbar sind. Auch erleidet der Titan jetzt mehr Schaden, wenn ihr ihn an den Schwachstellen trefft und kleinere Stellen sind jetzt durchgängig treffbar. Auf der Geberseite teilt der Titan jetzt weniger tödlich aus, zum Beispiel wurde der Radius der Suchprojektile verringert.
Item-Scaling: Die Skalierung der Stärke von Items wurde geändert, um die tatsächliche Stärke des Gegenstands basierend auf seiner Seltenheit wiederzugeben. Dies gilt rückwirkend für alle Gegenstände.
Ferner finden zahlreiche kleinere Verbesserungen, Bug Fixes und Performance-Optimierungen ihren Weg ins Spiel.

A number challenges may not be tracking properly, such as the objectives under the "Legendary Freelancer" challenge.

There are a number of Origin error messages that some PC players may encounter, including Origin showing that it is offline when it actually online.
