The launch of Redfall was very chaotic but despite everything Arkane does not want to abandon his baby. Far from there. Here is an update to improve things.
Redfall was a disaster when it was launched. Beyond the fairly criticized gameplay, the flaws of which you can find in our TEST, the title also suffers from many bugs. In particular backups that are corrupted and prevent you from fully enjoying the experience. Aware of the concerns, the Arkane studio is taking all this head on to solve the problem. This is the very first patch, V1.01.
A patch to finally improve Redfall
It will probably take many patches to improve Redfall in depth but also time. It could well be counted in months. But in the meantime, here is a fix that improves the main bugs that completely prevent some players from enjoying the game.
Gameplay
- Fixed an infinite loading screen issue that resulted from pausing and resuming the game when fast traveling around the map
- Fixed a save system crash that resulted from suspending and resuming the game when fast traveling around the map
Waiters
- Updated game server system for better backend communication with live servers
Indeed by visiting the various forums on the game Redfall you could see that some players didn’t even have the possibility to save. This patch will at least allow this essential functionality. The highly anticipated 60 FPS game mode on console is still on the agenda and in the works. Nothing more is known at this time.
Redfall, the disaster
In an interview, Phil Spencer, boss of Xbox, gave his feelings on the FPS and he himself speaks of the failure of the game internally. The man clarifies in particular the things on the quality problems and specifies all the same that the Arkane studio is doing everything possible to solve the whole. On our side, here are the main flaws that we were able to highlight during the TEST:
- The technique that dates
- Absent shooting sensations
- Uninspired level design
- No 60 FPS mode on Xbox at launch
- The anecdotal scenario
- Laughable AI
- The bestiary that lacks madness
- The sometimes strange game design
In short, with all this you have surely understood that if the game interests you, you will have to be extremely patient. This is the biggest failure of the Arkane studio to date and we hope that it will be the last and that the next productions will be a success.
