Magicka : le PVP est là

Zaza le Nounours par Zaza le Nounours,  email  @ZazaLeNounours
 
Arrowhead vient de lâcher le patch rajoutant le mode PVP à son excellent Magicka. Comme son nom l'indique, celui-ci permettra de se mettre légitimement sur la gueule et non plus de feindre d'être désolé quand on envoie une énorme boule de feu sur la tronche de son pote en coop.

Le patch rajoute une nouvelle robe et deux nouvelles maps, et est accompagné d'un nouveau DLC payant rajoutant lui trois nouvelles robes et autant de cartes. On vous colle l'énorme changelog dans la suite, ainsi que le petit trailer qui accompagne cette sortie, très drôle comme d'habitude.

Known Issues:
Network uplink bandwidth, while improved, can be demanding.
Steam attempts to install XNA framework every time game is launched or rare occasion.
Characters and items can in rare cases fall through the level collision mesh, this is due to lag or poor framerate. Many general network improvements and general optimization will reduce this risk.
The game may appear to be stuttering even though framerate is good.
Krietor versus mode spawning is not completely synched over network and may result in colliding spawns.
Camera does not follow or focus on other network gamers in versus mode.
Avatars in charge state does not reset during Krietor mode.
Brawl mode score is not completely synched over network.
Players sometimes have trouble connecting to each other. (Workaround: Join games via steam)
