Aliens Fireteam Elite, the co-op PVE game developed by Cold Iron Studios, received a hotfix yesterday. The patch addressed several dozen bugs and issues. Almost every aspect of the game has been touched upon. The hotfix balanced the health of Maintenance Synths for every difficulty level, and moss textures were improved as well.
We have mentioned the highlights of the patch below.
Highlights
- Perks and Attachments associated with firing burst Weapons will now trigger with their first shot.
- Guns: M41A3 Burst Rifle: Fixed a bug that caused the 4-star perk to decrease Stability on Hit while in ADS. The 4-star perk now properly increases Stability on Hit while in Aim Down Sight.
- Holstered guns are now visible when switching to a sidearm if the holster slot is not already filled.
- Players now receive a message to alert them when a Vulnerability Assessment Drone is already in use by another team member.

- Gunner: The Mobility Perk now properly increases the duration of the Stay on Target Passive Ability.
- Recon: The Eye On the Prize Perk now provides 15 Combat Rating as expected.
- Recon: The Blood Hound Ability will now only display the "No Valid Target" notification for the player that is activating the Ability.
- The center dot no longer turns off when loading into a Mission if the option is enabled.
- Enemy outlines are now turned on by default for Standard mode.
- Added a message to Spectator Mode, so that team members know who they are spectating.
- Players now start with Thumbs Up, Point, and No Way emotes equipped by default.
- Players can no longer join sessions with players on a different patch or update of the game.
- Players can no longer ping for help after getting killed in action.
- Field effects created from explosions now properly scale their radius based on Perk Modifiers.
- Players must first load into the Endeavor before they can join a queue.
