2005 The first Star Wars Battlefront 2 patch in three years was retired after breaking the game.

The first patch in three years for the 2005 Star Wars Battlefront 2 was retired after breaking the game.

A surprise patch update was released on February 9 for Pandemic Studios’ popular multiplayer shooter, which addressed a number of graphics resolution and controller support issues in the game.

While the update was initially met positively – an update for a 15-year-old game is fantastic support, after all – it didn’t take players long to notice that it had broken the game in several. key areas.

Players have reported crashing issues, field of view issues, resolution issues, UI object and text size issues and, worst of all, popular mods within the community n were more usable.

A GOG representative told Eurogamer that the update was provided to them by the game’s publisher, Lucasfilm Games (this is the new brand name for Lucasfilm’s renewed effort in the video game), and that he removed it from his platform “after reviewing user feedback and consulting with our partner.”

And now, a new update on Steam reveals a similar move on Valve’s platform: “Roll back to previous version.”

It’s a shame the patch didn’t work for Star Wars Battlefront 2 players, but assuming Lucasfilm Games can fix the issue, it suggests continued support for the veteran shooter.
