30 Mar 2009 at 11:12:07 by Andy Alderson

Guerilla is preparing to release a new patch for Killzone 2. 

In a post on the official forums, Guerilla’s Sebastian Downie (motherh666 on the forums), confirmed the team expects the patch to go live this week.

“Pending any unforeseen problems, early next week patch 1.21 will be released,” said Downie.

“I’ll confirm the timings on Monday.”

The patch will include the following:

• Increase of the standard points settings for Bodycount. Should ensure longer mode on heavily populated games.
• The return of Online Bots. Adding bots to an online game renders it ‘unranked’.
• The option to create unranked games. Players will be made aware that a game is unranked upon joining.
• Fix to Game Search functionality so correct maps are displayed.
• Standardization of the Y-Axis controls on the HGH Scout when zoomed with the Sniper Rifle.
• Fix to Sensitivity setting where the weapon animation did not follow the reticule correctly.
• Fix for auto-aim exploit when rapidly tapping zoom/fire.
• Fix to infrequent collision issues with C4 Proximity mines.
• Fix to list of games displayed on search.
• Stability fix relating to disconnect.
• Fix to ‘Clan’ button functionality in custom game creation settings.
  

In addition, Downie also revealed that the team is already thinking about factors to investigate for future patches. These include:

• Controls. Seeing about giving more options.
• Expanding on Join Game searches and options.
• Improving game and network stability.
• Collision exploits on maps.
• Improvements to help play with friends.
• More game creation options.
• More game options for clans.
• Fixes to Clans unexpectedly losing tournament rounds.
• Other minor fixes.
