Section 8: Prejudice is barely a week old, and already TimeGate has issued its first title update for Xbox Live Arcade. The patch addresses a variety of stability bugs, along with usability tweaks to several of the menus.

The team is also using hot-fixes on their end to respond to community feedback, allowing two-player Ranked Swarm matches, and increasing the chance that you'll get placed with friends or Xbox Live Party members when the game auto-balances the teams.

The PC version is due on May 4, and a PlayStation Network release is planned for sometime this summer. Check out the full patch notes below.

    Stability

    • Fixed a rare shader system crash that could occur randomly during gameplay

    • Fixed a crash that could occur when signing out of LIVE when a message about downloading DLC was on-screen, then attempting to access the marketplace from the DLC message

    General

    • Fixed an issue where the game was not correctly upgrading from the Trial Version to the Full Game when logging in with a LIVE account that had previously purchased the game

    Usability

    • Improved visibility of the Loading screen Deploy button after map transition

    • Fixed an issue where an inactive sign-in change would disconnect players from Prejudice Online

    • Fixed an issue where custom match browser search options saved from a previous run of the game were not reflected in the UI on subsequent runs, even though the actual search options were saved correctly

    • Added the ability to reconnect to Prejudice Online without resigning-in, by selecting the Stats button without a connection.

    TGXServer

    • Added improved Region and Language dedicated server options to help players join servers that are near their region and have players of the same language

    • Fixed an issue where idle dedicated servers would get into a bad state after an extended period of time

    • Added descriptive error message for when a dedicated server fails to launch due to requiring an update

    • Fixed an issue where dedicated servers would sometimes not reconnect to the stats system properly

      Nice to see they are supporting the game too. They will have to do a good supporting it if they want to make money off continuing subscriptions for dedicated servers.

      Seeing developers being on-the-spot with follow-up support like this makes me much more interested in picking up their game. Kudos.

      This game is totally on my radar. I love that they went with the risky bet of making a full on retail game a budget downloadable title and I love that they're on the ball with the updates. That's cool as fuck.
