Overwatch: Die Retail-Patchnotes vom 04. Februar

Das für die fortlaufende Entwicklung von Overwatch zuständige Team von Blizzard Entertainment hat den gestrigen Abend unter anderem dafür genutzt, um den nächsten größeren Patch für die normale Retail-Variante dieses beliebten Hero Shooters zu veröffentlichen. Gleichzeitig damit teilten die zuständigen Entwickler netterweise auch wieder offizielle englische Patchnotes zu diesem Update mit ihrer Community, die ganz genau auflisten, was für Neuerungen und Änderungen in diesem Update enthalten waren. Wer jetzt also mehr über diesen Patch erfahren möchte, der muss im Grunde einfach nur einen Blick auf diese am Ende des Beitrags eingebaute Übersicht werfen. Was die einzelnen Inhalte dieses neuen Updates betrifft, so handelt es sich bei den größten Neuerungen aus diesem Patch recht eindeutig um die seit gestern Abend laufenden Feierlichkeiten zu dem diesjährigen chinesischen Neujahrsfest und den damit verbundenen neuen Spielmodus rund um die Kopfgeldjagd. Zusätzlich dazu beinhaltete dieses Update auch zwei Anpassungen an dem Replay Viewer, drei allgemeine Änderungen und eine Reihe von notwendigen Fehlerbehebungen für verschiedene Probleme mit dem Spiel. Aufgrund dieser Problemlösungen sollte es jetzt wesentlich weniger unbeabsichtigte Interaktionen mit der Umgebung der Karte Kanezaka geben und viele Bugs mit den Helden des Spiels dürften nicht mehr auftreten.   Overwatch-Patchnotes – 4.

Getting the first kill of the match makes you the Target and gives you extra points for making kills, but beware: anyone who kills you becomes the next Target!   GENERAL UPDATES Feature Update: Replay Viewer Fine-Grained Playback Controls We’ve introduced a new option that allows you to toggle between two different playback controls, the default playback controls and the “fine-grained” playback controls. These “fine-grained” controls will allow you to increase and decrease the replay playback speed in smaller increments than 0.25x, from 0.10x to 1.00x. You can also hold your “Move Slow” binding while increasing or decreasing speeds to change the playback speed acceleration. This can help you capture cool slow-motion shots and more!   General Added a “New” Ownership Filter to the Player Icon tab in the career profile Reorganized the layout of the escape menu while you are in a custom game Adjusted sound for boosted hit indicators to increase clarity     BUG FIXES General Fixed a bug that would rarely cause enemy footstep sounds to not be heard Fixed a bug that caused the chat feed to not properly indicate that a real ID friend request has been accepted Fixed a bug that caused Sombra’s low health material effect to be seen on allies during a replay playback   Maps Kanezaka Fixed a bug with missing collision inside of the Pachimari arcade Fixed a bug with the map geometry that produced a gap between buildings Fixed a bug that allowed players to stand on top of specific door frames Fixed a bug with missing collision on the pottery wheels Fixed a bug with missing collision between vending machines Route 66 Fixed a bug with the map geometry that produced a gap in the Deadlock hideout interior   Heroes Brigitte Fixed bug where her Barrier would not scale properly using Workshop settings Baptiste Fixed bug where the Deaths Prevented stat would not track correctly Reaper Fixed a bug with his hit volume becoming out of sync if frozen during his ultimate ability Reinhardt Fixed a bug causing his lean animation to be less responsive than expected Sombra Fixed a bug where the low health effect would sometimes show incorrectly in replays Fixed a bug that caused an invisible Sombra to reveal her location if her model was still loading into the match Symmetra Fixed a bug that could cause her to be killed while traveling between teleporter locations Wrecking Ball Fixed a bug that allowed him to use Piledriver while on the ground in rare circumstances Zenyatta Fixed a bug with his Toybot skin that that caused an animation issue to occur when casting orbs Fixed a bug where sounds and effects would stop during the Meditate emote     (via)
