'Halo Wars 2'Latest Update News: Windows 10 Update Rolls Out; Patch Notes Revealed; Issues Fixed But Not Major Problems
Keisuke Akio"Halo Wars 2" Windows 10 update was released on February 22 along with the official patch notes. Although it addressed some issues, the update did not solve most of the major problems pointed out by players during the launch.
343 Industries released the patch notes for the recently rolled out "Halo Wars 2" Windows 10 update. This is basically the day one update that was to some extent delayed for PC. The developer acknowledged that while it includes a number of developments, it does not directly address many of the issues reported by some players since the game launched.
According to 343 Industries, the team is currently working on a sizable patch for Xbox One and Windows 10. Moreover, they gave an assurance that the team is pushing hard and fast to get the necessary updates into the game as soon as possible.
The latest "Halo Wars 2" Windows 10 updatewas the same update that Xbox players have received last week. The PC update fixed the optional objective, "Complete the mission with under 50 percent damage" on Prologue 01. In addition, it fixed an issue where loading a save created shortly after the returns would cause the unit to idle and not correctly path between the Domination points.
Moreover, Mission 05 will no longer fail when the Particle Cannon is destroyed. It also fixed an issue where completing objectives in a mission, saving and loading, and then completing the mission resulted in the number of completed optional and bonus objectives being misreported on the missions log.
The "Halo Wars 2" Windows 10 update fixed an issue where Restart from Checkpoint and Load Game options do not appear on Mission Failed Screen. Scarab minimum range has also been adjusted to more effectively engage units that are very close to it. Uber Units can no longer be built by the AI in Skirmish on Easy & Normal difficulty.
Aside from that, the Blitz card hand input speed has been increased. The "Halo Wars 2" Windows 10 update also fixed an issue where game audio could sometimes be distorted when many units are in play. Furthermore, it addressed the issue where pressing Alt+Enter to enter full screen and then again to exit can result in a crash. It fixed an issue as well where closing the Min. Spec dialog box could result in a crash. Finally, players can now participate in a 2v2 match with their favorite deck for Blitz Quickmatch.
