Guerrilla Games deploys latest Killzone Shadow Fall update 1.09

Guerrilla Games – the Amsterdam-based subsidiary of Sony – has today released the latest update for its newest PS4-exclusive blockbuster, Killzone Shadow Fall.

A complete rundown of changes can be found below, with the highlights being the much-touted inclusion of clan functionality, the ability to lock the main campaign at a steady 30FPS and the allowance for parties in Warzone. All changes considered, it looks as if it’s time to don the garb, pull up an assault rifle and join the frenzied warfare once again.

Check out the list:

Clans

While already available through the website, the functionality is now also implemented in-game. You can invite clan members to a party and clantags are now also added to the player name within the game. It can be viewed in the player card, in the friendslist, etc. You can check your friendlist by pressing touchpad or check the player card through the main menu (go to multiplayer > choose a warzone > press square > show the leaderboard & find the player you are interested in > press cross to open the player card).

Warzone discoverability

We have visually changed the main menu of the Multiplayer and added a top-bar from which you can browse and create new warzones. Also, we expanded the number of recommended warzones to 9 and move the friendslist to the top-right corner. This should make it easier to discover new warzones.

New Warzone options: parties allowed

Players can now select the option to allow parties to join a warzone. Just go to Multiplayer > Create your warzone > go to settings with R1 > Check ‘Parties Allowed’ at the bottom.

Checkpoint saving

We have added additional checkpoint saving to save on every revive event, giving more save points throughout the campaign.

Ability to lock to 30FPS in campaign mode

To guarantee a steadier framerate in the campaign mode, players can now lock their game to 30fps via the options menu.

VC30 exploit fixed

The exploit that let users with a VC30 equipped with the flashlight increase their range has been fixed.

There’s also a few fixes for general stability and performance.
