BioShock 2 Patch 1.0.0.1 Released

The first patch for BioShock 2 has been released. It has caused a new multiplayer problem they’re hotfixing, but otherwise adresses the multiplayer issues mentioned earlier.

Today we released a patch for BioShock 2 on the PC for issues that we uncovered between the title’s production and launch. Unfortunately, this patch is causing errors in the Multiplayer portion of the game where holding down the mouse button does not register in game. We are already working on a fix to this problem and I will update you with more details as soon as I have them. The full patch list is available here for your reference (minus any potential spoilers.) Our work to fix other issues (including our widescreen fix) is still ongoing and they will be coming shortly. As always, I’ll be posting here whenever I have an update for you.
