Summary
Saber Interactive has releasedWarhammer 40,000: Space Marine 2patch 4.5, introducing the Neo-Volkite pistol to the game. Additionally, thisWarhammer 40,000: Space Marine 2update buffs several primary weapons and addresses a number of bugs and connection issues.
Set intheWarhammer 40kuniverse,Space Marine 2features intense third-person action, with both melee and ranged combat. Developed by Saber Interactive, the game features an array of different weapons and gear, allowing players to adopt their preferred playstyle. The available options range from heavy and light weapons to ranged, close-range, and melee weapons. Each of these weapons can be upgraded, giving players the chance to unlock different perks to enhance stats or add new abilities. The latest update introduces a new weapon for players to try.
The main feature of this update is the addition of a newSpace Marine 2secondary weapon, the Neo-Volkite pistol. This thermal ray weapon, which can only be used in Operations mode, deals increasing thermal damage the longer it’s aimed at a target, eventually causing a powerful explosion that damages both the target and enemies nearby. Right now, players can try the Neo-Volkite pistol in the Battle Barge’s Sparring Arena, but the developer has plans to fully release it in the Eternal War mode in the next big update.
In addition to the new weapon, several ofSpace Marine 2’s primary weaponsin Operations mode have been adjusted to improve their performance. The Plasma Incinerator now generates less heat, and fixes have been made to ensure heat production is consistent across all versions. The Bolt Sniper Rifle’s fire rate has been increased, and its headshot bonus has been improved, making it more powerful for precision shots. The Oculus Bolt Carbine now has a scope for better long-range accuracy, along with an upgraded headshot multiplier. For those who prefer close-range combat, the Bolt Carbine now does 50% more damage within the first 10 meters, before returning to its normal output. Lastly, the Auto Bolt Rifle’s ammo capacity has been expanded.
LikepreviousSpace Marine 2updates, patch 4.5 also fixes several bugs and technical issues to improve gameplay stability. It resolves some issues with weapon perks and DLC cosmetic items, along with fixes for PvP features like muting other players. Additionally, Saber Interactive has made improvements to reduce server disconnects, particularly for players with unstable internet connections.
Patch 4.5 not only adds new weapon options but also improves the overall gameplay balance. This November update, available on all platforms, further refines theSpace Marine 2player experience.
