Star Citizen 2.6.2 añade soporte 21:9 y muchas optimizaciones
Cloud Imperium acaba de lanzar otra gigantesca actualización para su ambicioso juego espacial Star Citizen, el cual alcanza la versión 2.6.2 con muchas mejoras por el camino, siendo la más destacada el soporte oficial para monitores ultra panorámicos (21:9). Se ha activado el Mega Map en los modos multijugador Arena Commander y Star Marine, que permite a los jugadores conectarse sin problemas a las diferentes partidas multijugador o saltar al modo de juego para un solo jugador sin tener que cargar nuevamente el nivel.
El Star Citizen recibe los bonus para muertes por "heatshot", soporte para el periférico TrackIR, se ha mejorado el código de la red, se ha añadido la nueva nave Drake Buccaneer y una gran cantidad de cambios a lo que me limito a realizar "Copy & Paste", ya que me costaría la vida y varias cajas de Monster traducir todo.
Listado completo de mejoras en Star Citizen 2.6.2
Star Marine
- Added a “+25 Headshot” bonus reward for killing players with a projectile shot to the head.
- Last Stand scoreboard now shows the number of Control Points captured.
- Enemy players attempting to enter a spawn room will now be killed by the spawn room barriers in Last Stand.
- Temporarily disabled the ability to prone or melee in Star
Marine.
- Melee and prone have been removed for the time being as they allow for too many exploits.
- We are actively working on a fix for these kinds of collision exploits and once this is completed, we will re-enable these features.
- Last Stand now requires six players to start, instead of eight.
Ships:
- The Drake Buccaneer has been added to the game and enabled for Crusader and Arena Commander.
Technical:
Mega Map
- Mega Map is now enabled for multiplayer Arena Commander and Star Marine maps.
- The new Mega Map system allows for much quicker loading time when switching between maps.
- It is not enabled for Crusader or Area 18 at this point.
Screen Resolution
- With 2.6.2 we have added support for very wide screen (21:9) screen resolutions in our game and screen resolutions.
- Fixed a number of issues with the game UI and menus that would occur when monitors were set to 21:9 aspect ratio resolution.
Serialized Variables
- Serialized Variables replaces some of the original aspects of CryEngine for handling data (aspects and class members) previously serialized by CryEngine NetSerialize calls. In simpler terms, it’s a much more lightweight means for handling update messaging on the network, with reduced risk of updates being lost in caching or other processes – and reducing lag.
