Mit einem frischen Patch, für das Arena Commander Modul von Star Citizen geht Entwickler Cloud Imperium Games auch gegen ersten Frust der Tester vor. Endlich gibt es eine gescheitere Steuerung!
Eine Test-Phase ist bekanntlich kein Ort für Fans, die ihr Lieblingsspiel schon in vollen und ausgereiften Zügen genießen wollen. Auch wenn dies bereits hinlänglich bekannt ist, ärgern sich dennoch etliche Spieler von Star Citizen über verschiedene Probleme mit dem Arena Commander Modul. Allen voran die klobige Steuerung, die man nicht mal anpassen konnte. Dieses, und natürlich auch andere, Probleme, gehen die Entwickler mit dem jüngst erschienenen Patch 13.1 (0.9.1) an, der endlich die Möglichkeit bietet, grundlegende Tasteneinstellungen zu ändern und Support für Tastatur-und-Maus-Steuerung sowie Gamepads ins Spiel bringt. Außerdem werden High-End-PCs sich bestimmt über die Unterstützung von SLI/Crossfire freuen.
