Wasteland 2 - New Patch Released

by Couchpotato, 2014-11-07 06:22:57

InXile Entertainment released the third post-launch patch for Wasteland 2. Here are some the changes from the massive patch taken off the games Tumblr page.

Wasteland 2 Patch 3 (59820) Release Notes

Patch 3 for Wasteland 2 is here, bringing our biggest change and improvement list yet! Most notably, we’ve got Steam Achievements, colorblind mode, and you can now carry your Ranger squad over into a second adventure after finishing the game the first time!

Note: As usual, GOG.com and other platforms may be a little bit later in releasing the update as their teams prep it. Steam users can download the patch right now.

Hotfix: We just put out a small hotfix to localization. This fixes issues with English text displaying in Spanish. We also got an opportunity to sneak in Italian and Russian localization updates as well. Thanks!

Highlights

  • Added Steam Achievements! Collect them all, if you dare. These are currently only in for Windows. Steam Achievements should be backwards compatible for many (but not all) save files, so players will receive achievements automatically by loading up their save files.
  • Added and improved epilogue text to fix bugs and add more details that were previously missing.
  • Added colorblind mode! Activate it in the Display Options menu. This mode changes certain HUD element colors, primarily in combat, to be easier to discern for people with colorblindness.
  • Added a new brightness/saturation calibration screen to get the game looking as good as it should on a display near you.
  • Characters are now automatically exported at the end of the game. Veteran characters will now be noted as such in character creation.
  • Further improvements to Text Size setting so it now affects much more text across the interface. This will help out players who are visually impaired, or who play on high-DPI displays, or TVs.
  • Added an option to show/hide selection circles on the party, for those who would prefer them off.
  • Continued cleanup of bugs and issues, especially in California.
