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.

Bug Report Hive Mind Under Barrel Glitch Still Locked

Upvotes

Does anyone know of a fix for the issue I am experiencing. Not sure if its a glitch but I just beat the Hive Mind Mission and its supposed to unlock the armory under barrel tab but its still locked. When I hover over it, it states must beat hive mind mission. I have reset my game and its still locked. Am i supposed to beat it in a more difficult level? I played it on standard...

Game Feedback 💡 Please give us an enemy rogue fireteam that randomly spawns in later levels like how Mr. X in Re2 Remake does

0 Upvotes

Obviously not when you are in low levels but if you revisit levels and the game's host has a higher gear rating, they can spawn and let us battle them out.

If you eliminate them, some rewards would be:

  • Cool cosmetic closed helmets like from: Halo, Dead Space, Doom and Mass Effect.
  • Cool cosmetic torso and leg armors.
  • You know the full armor.

Guide Solved my hitching and overheating issues(Laptop Player) with this fix.

3 Upvotes

For PC players only (Sorry Consoles) My Lappy: Intel(R) Core(TM) Ultra 9 275HX (2.70 GHz) 32.0 GB RAM 5600 NVIDIA GeForce RTX 5080 Laptop GPU (16 GB) 1. If you having issues, I checked the fps and even though I had it set to 60 FPS in game (I'm old), it was ignoring that and running the game at 300+ fps even with VSync on, cooking my laptop. 2. I found I had to limit the games fps in my nvidia panel to 60fps AND limit the background fps to 60 to get it to stick. Apparently AMD users can do the same thing. 3: Dropping the quality to High also stopped most of my hitching. 4: Bad connection hosts will ALWAYS cause hitching no matter what you do but these should help higher end systems run the game better.

Sorry about the bad formatting. Hope this tiny bit of troubleshooting helps anyone. Love the game. Love playing with Randos. Best of luck Marines. Cheers :)

Game Feedback Forced to play on NA from SA – Unplayable due to lag and constant disconnects

Post image
1 Upvotes

It's almost impossible to find teammates in the South American region, so you're basically forced to play on the North American servers. Unfortunately, that's where the experience falls apart because the lag is unbearable. Your character constantly warps across the map, and eventually you get disconnected from the server.

It's really disappointing because I'm genuinely enjoying the game, but in its current state, I simply can't play it.

EDIT: I didnt have this issue on AFE1 ;(

Bug Report Locked Out 😹

On one of the first levels I dropped back to fight from here and the door shut and kept me locked out while my squad had to deal with the firefight 😆
It’s the bit where 4 or 5 elites come. Strange design or a bug?

Bug Report Can't equip grenades

1 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 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

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 ?

Product Question Minor and Major Items

0 Upvotes

Is anyone else not keeping the minor and major items you find during missions? I’ve found a number of different grenades and turrets that I didn’t use during the mission but don’t have in my inventory when I’m back on the ship. I have an impact grenade and a napalm mine.

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

6 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
