Assault on Dark Athena Patch [Apr 15, 2009, 5:15 pm ET] – Share – Viewing Comments
The Starbreeze Forum
offers links to download a new patch for The Chronicles of Riddick: Assault
on Dark Athena that brings the just-preleased first person shooter to version
1.01 (thanks Bill). Here are the patch notes, presumably listing problems
solved, rather than problems added, in the new version:
Multiplayer - User is unable to join an online session hosted by a patched game or a game with downloaded content and message "Blahblah" is displayed.
Multiplayer - User is unable to join an online session if the port is not forwarded to 30000. This causes the message "session no longer exists" to be displayed.
Assault on Dark Athena - Game crashes on throwing the guards body into the rotating fan.
I'm glad I passed on this game, I am a huge fan of Butcher Bay but this game didn't get good reviews. The Dark Athena campaign pretty much sucks(according to my friend). It's just a shooter and the graphics aren't much better than the original.
Dark Athena is pretty much all stealth and melee until the second half... it also looks much better than the original game, and has a very cool and unique art design that fits the narrative very well. The only thing it really lacks compared to Butcher Bay is the "walking around talking to people" stages... while it has a little of that, it's much more limited.
Still, I found Dark Athena pretty awesome, and as a matter of fact it's probably my lead candidate for game of the year at this time. Butcher Bay was nice to run through again too, and is still an amazing game.
