Terminator: Dark Fate - Defiance News

Here is a small update:

• Multiplayer Versioning Added
  
• Shader reading protection (issues with shader_cache folder)
  

Greetings players,

We have been hard at work on new plans, and we are now ready to tell you what is in store for the first year of post-release development of the game.

Free Updates
The initial free updates will primarily concentrate on enhancing multiplayer and skirmish modes, introducing new maps, modes, and features, including the first Multiplayer Co-op maps.

Subsequently, a campaign update will be released, offering customizable difficulty options, and a new mission for T-Force within the main campaign.

Further multiplayer updates are scheduled for later in the year with even more maps, more Co-Op games, and also in game chat. Alongside all of this will be ongoing quality-of-life improvements.

Premium Content
We are currently developing the first DLC to be released this year — a campaign that explores the continuing war between man and machine from a fresh perspective. In this DLC, players will have the opportunity to play as the Machines themselves. Expect new mission locations, units, and many other exciting additions as the story continues.

Hello everyone,

Today's update focuses on optimising performance, refining anti-aliasing, and fine-tuning mission balance. Expect smoother gameplay, sharper visuals, and more engaging missions.

• Optimization of shaders and road rendering;
