Red Solstice 2: Survivors has recently received an update that provides fixes to the newly released Howell-Barrex Inc. DLC and more.
The global infestation that may occur anytime during the Howell-Barrex campaign when saving or loading a game has been fixed. Also, vehicles will now spawn for the host only. This is to help prevent mass spamming of vehicles, especially if eight people are playing the campaign at the same time.
All of the new Howell-Barrex missions have been rebalanced, including enemy marines and enemy UBAS combat exoskeleton.
In terms of stationary defense systems, those who have misplaced the electric fence need not worry as it can be dismantled by the Engineer who put it up. Plus, the Reaper turret can no longer be placed on top of another.
For improvements, the developers have implemented additional vehicle controls in the options menu. This is to help those who are using the French keyboard (AZERTY) layout.
