Patch v.179

Hi everybody,

This is our first patch since the EA public release this past weekend. We fixed a bunch of open bugs so that things play smoother:

  • Fixed various spelling issues
  • Fixed problems in the beginning of Chapter 2
  • Fixed bribe talent freezing the game in some instances
  • Fixed running from certain fights freezing the game
  • Fixed NPC's missing upon saving / loading
  • Fixed various layering / collider issues
  • Fixed meeting Woof at the docks freezing game in some instances
  • Fixed White Tigers not showing up in the Junkyard after second alleyway fight in Chapter 3
  • Fixed various bugs with skills
  • Fixed missing dialog keys
  • Fixed issues around how 'Game Over' is handled
  • Fixed clipping through vehicles
  • Fixed Spanish translation rough spots (places where there is still English text)



Known Issues:
  • FPS issues in the Casino
  • In rare cases Spanish translation may be missing dialog only displaying their dialog keys (IE: SearchTent_Detective_2) OR certain text may not be translated properly and still show up in English
  • The mini map may become inaccurate if you go into tight corners in exterior areas--this problem usually fixes itself by changing area environments


Thanks again to all for the hype, bug finding, and all the great discussions and reviews/curation! Happy sleuthing, detectives!
