Warhammer: Vermintide 2 Patch Notes 1.11
- Added bots to Quickplay Weaves.
- Fixed an issue where the bots would be despawned way before they were replaced by joining players.
- Added field of view slider.
- Fixed various UI strings.
- Various crash fixes.
- Fix for missing localisation for one of the paintings.
- Fixed players being placed in to matches without being offered hero selection should their chosen hero be taken, resulting in players entering matches with the wrong hero.
- Fixed an issue where having too many enemies alive prevented completion of the ‘Cage Breaker’ challenge on Against the Grain.
- Fixed bots taking damage when they are teleported to you/a team mate whilst mid-air.
- Enemies, notably the Chaos Spawn and Rat Ogre (but this does apply to all enemies) will slowly nudge players who find themselves stood within the enemy unit, through expiration of a cloak ability or other such means. This fixes situations where enemy AI could not reach the player stood “inside” them.
- Fixed battle wizard career ability fire trail going further than the player travels. Fixed fire trail not appearing if player jumps over a gap in the navmesh* (*the path on which AI can travel)
- Fixed fire bombs not aggroing patrols if they step on the fire, now applying dots to enemies to alert them.
- Fixed an issue where the Achivement “Ride Together, Die Together” could not be completed on Legend difficulty.
- Changes the backstab trigger to calculate on clients instead of server
- Updated all hidden spawners on all levels to try and combat facespawning issues.
- Updates to enemy considerations to try and fight hyperdensity.
- Updates to horde spawning, primarily targeting ambushes.
- Fixes issue where the host hear the backstab indicator when bots are being backstabbed
- Updated how sweeps are calculated for:
- 1h Swords, Kruber and Sienna
- Dual Wield Daggers, Kerillian
- Dual Wield Swords, Kerillian
- Spears and Shield, Kerillian
- Spears, Kerillian2h
- Swords, Kerillian
- This should reduce the chance of getting Phantom Sweeps when playing at low fps and/or very high attack speed.
- Added Push/Block angle to weave melee weapons.
- An issue caused these to not display properly as an option that could be selected.
- Adjusted beastmen jump/climb up timers to reduce snappiness.
- Fixed missing sounds on Kerillian’s Shield+Spear.
- Fixed missing sounds for Bardin’s hammers.
- Overhauled the sound mix to improve enemy specials awareness.
- Removed spawn stingers for Ratling Gunner, Warpfire Thrower.
- Fixes hordes spawning without the horde music and ambience.
- Fixed an issue where enemies using the combo attack (Plague Monk etc) wouldn’t face their target.
- Beastmen and chaos ambush horde music now triggers earlier to give a better indication for the player when they are about to be engaged.
- Beastmen and chaos horde ambiance has been changed to the same effect.
- Fixed a case of super fast Gutter Runner behaviours. Seemed to be an interaction between assassin rats and edges in terrain/geometry.
- Keep us posted!Fixed some situations where patrols spawned too close to the player.
- Fixed an issue where Chaos Warriors sometimes could hit player that were very close behind them when performing their overhead cleave attacks.
- Fixed an exploit with Fire Walk and Slayer’s Leap which allowed some solid objects to be passed through.
- Bulwark’ Talent – Fixed an issue that caused the bonus damage to enemies you stagger to be applied to ranged attacks. Now only affects melee attacks.
