Yes, another patch for another game has been released onto Xbox Live. This time it's Chromehounds and we hope they can get it right.
Sega announced the patch availablity Wednesday, which has drawn some hope for fans on the official message board. The biggest change is the ability to host 6 v 6 battles without the constant drop outs experienced by most teams. Other fixes are included in the list below.
This patch comes right on the heels of the Saints Row disaster in which their message boards were lit up with angered fans demanding a fix ASAP for the multiplayer lag-o-thon. At least Volition seems to already be working on a patch, but the days of fully working games seem to be few and far between.
