Ingen lär protestera mot påståendet att Marvel's Avengers borde ha fått några extra veckor, eller rent av månader, med finputs innan det lanserades. Utvecklarna har iallafall arbetat hårt på att åtgärda ett antal problem de senaste veckorna och nu börjar man ta itu med spelarnas återmatning.
Nu har en ny patch släppts till spelet och Crystal Dynamics samt Eidos Montreal har släppt listan över hur detta påverkar Marvels Avengers. Den enskilt bästa nyheten torde vara att Captain America äntligen kan bryta sig igenom de stora dörrarna som kan dölja både lådor och fångar. Dessutom har ett antal andra små justeringar gjorts för både hjältar och fiender, en massa kända problem har fixats och Mega Hives ger större sannolikhet att ge oss bra grejer. Som kompensation för problemen, kommer alla som loggar in före klockan 19:00 den 1 oktober belönas med 250 Polychoron och 500 Uru.
Här är alla ändringar och annat som kommer att fixas inom en snar framtid:

Various Reassemble Campaign & Avengers Initiative fixes, including:
- Various Crash & Stability fixes
