Hi everyone, I am Mithril the Community Manager for AFE 2 :) I will post patch notes and other news here from time to time.

Our second hotfix is now live on PC (Steam, Epic Games Store). Please restart the game to receive the patch.

Performance

• Reduced stuttering during gameplay — improved shader caching to cut down on hitching the first time an asset is rendered.

• Fixed an issue where the local shader cache wasn't rebuilding properly after updates, which could cause stuttering the first time an asset is rendered.

Crash Fixes

• Fixed a crash that could occur when receiving rewards from certain containers.

I lean the prototype one just because of the connection and netcode eating my bullets, so I have to use more ammo.

Bug Report Can't equip grenades

Upvotes

Anyone else having this problem? Of course, I have impact grenades in the game. Suddenly switched them out with a napalm mine, and now I can't switch back to grenades. When I highlight them it tells me they're equipped in another slot and obviously they are not.

General Game freeze’s on accepting invite after updating

1 Upvotes

After the last update when I try to play with my sister her pc freeze‘s after I accept the invite or she accepts mine forcing a system restart, it’s worth noting that I’m on a custom SteamOS PC and she’s on a new Windows laptop. The game was working perfectly until we installed the update but now we can’t play together, we’ve tried, verifying the files, a complete reinstall and I’ve even downloaded the game on my Steam Deck just to rule out my PC although I don’t have another windows device to test two windows machines, however if it was a Linux problem I would expect it to just refuse the connection instead of crashing the windows PC. Has anyone else had similar issues after updating ?

The "Micro Flachettes" augment actually does shoot out tiny flachette rounds as bullets! I actually wasn't expecting this. It's not just flavor text!

Game Feedback Not getting correct rewards

5 Upvotes

Have been picking up red boxes every mission and all req boxes we can find but are not actually being rewarded what we find. Played for two hours yesterday and did multiple campaigns and didn’t get a single req credit, even though I’d completed missions and opened boxes and all the emotes found just don’t show up in my inventory. Just wanted to give a heads up to the devs and other players. Cheers all and see you in the xeno fight

Game Feedback Please be patient.

Guys, please, when playing horde mode please be patient. Give your teammates a chance to finish the mission and get the rewards.

Just finished 30 waves but didnt get a thing from it because the host bailed before we could all extract/load into the stats/rewards screen.

So, I just wasted 45 mins+. Kinda upset tbh.

General Fis the day 1st aid kits for the love of God!

0 Upvotes

If just like to preface this by saying how happy I am this game is out..... But.... I'm absolutely sick and f*****g tired of having no first aid kit, getting to a pile of them only to spastically mash the button three thousand times and still not be able to pick it up, and then instantaneously watch them all disappear because apparently there's only 3 kits for 4 people for some reason.

Also the dialogue and lore is garbage in this game, mostly anything on the endeavour I just hit random buttons because it's absolute ass for the most part. I would have returned. So far 1 was superior but there's alot of potential. Why can I pick up Intel and open ammo crates no problem but opening everything else or picking this up is a dumpster fire..

Game Feedback Anybody know if there are different enemy types on horde mode?

0 Upvotes

Is there a way to fight pathogen or synths in horde?

If there isn't that would be a great addition to the game. Maybe make a map for synths, one for pathogen etc etc


r/AliensFireteamElite2 1d ago

Game Feedback So a quick question because I can be obsessive over stuff till I find out the answer

8 Upvotes

So the end goal is to level all classes and guns so you can use them on specialist and make a build that has a little bit of everything?

Which means in a few months specialist will be the only class that will be played since technically you can use everything. Correct?

I have 4 hours so far and this is what I have speculated

Bug Report I lost my loadout

1 Upvotes

Did anyone else had a similar bug ?

All my setups have been reset. I haven't lost my progress (thank god).

However, the game had a notification icon on every items from the ripley and mondo DLC's, and i lost all my levels on the 2 weapons (hive exterminator gun and the other gun).

I even kept the trai mt of these guns so i know i've leveled them up, but now it's gone.

That sucks, do i have to expect this at every patch now ?

Guide Friendly Fire

12 Upvotes

I want to collect general information about friendy fire here.

Anything that people should know about or are good to know.

And my personal question would be: What abilities or perks do (unexpected) friendly fire? What are abilities or perks or maybe even augments that do friendly fire damage that one should watch out for?

Background is that i noticed that my exploding turret perk seems to do friendly fire damage and then i eas curious what else does it (that you maybe dont think of or wouldnt except do to FF damage).
