Aliens: Fireteam Elite's latest patch is a small one but important. Patch 1.0.5.103095 went live on all platforms and brought a handful of gameplay tweaks along with several bug fixes.
From now on, C34F3 Hamsa Null Compensator will work with projectile-based weapons as expected. Brutes will be affected by the "Maybe We Got 'Em Demoralized" Challenge Card, and the entire team will receive the health bonus from the "Adrenaline Rush" perk. Issues with Esther's intel dialogue have been fixed as well.
You can read about the rest of the changes below.
AUDIO
- Fixed an issue with charge guns (such as the P.649 HEL) that could cause their audio and vfx to stay active forever when attempting to fire them without enough ammo.
CHALLENGE CARDS
- Fixed an issue with the "Stuck Magazine" Challenge Card where players were unable to shoot their gun, reload, or swap weapons if they had less than the minimum amount of ammo required for a charge in their clip.
CLASS KITS, ABILITIES, & PERKS
- Fixed an issue with the fit of the Feminine Classic Elite costume.
ENEMIES
- PATHOGEN: Mutated Runners, Pathogen Blights, and the Pathogen Queen from the Pathogen DLC now count towards progress for Pathogen specific TacOps.
