Left 4 Dead 2 Patch for PC
Anyone who’s been playing Left 4 Dead 2 on their PC might have experienced any one of a number of issues that have cropped up since the game’s release last week.
A new patch from Valve which is available over Steam should fix most of the game’s teething problems. According to the company, the patch’s features include:
- Fixed performance problem when rendering lots of decals, notably when fighting tanks with shotguns
- Fixed rcon response not working on Linux dedicated servers
- Fixed matchmaking problem matching into Advanced and Expert games
- Fix bug that would cause other specials to try to pummel a player a Charger disconnects or reconnects
- Fixed versus mode results panel being cut off in transition stats screen in non-English
- Found games: fixed non-player entries drawing the wrong type of icon in the selected item name label
- Game mode selector on main menu now takes keyboard input
While no-one is a fan of games companies releasing a product that is unfinished or niggly, Valve is at least ahead of the game when it comes to fixing their mistakes. This patch would seem to be yet another example of the Washington-based company’s near-legendary support for its fans.
