Dying Light 2’s new patch makes the night deadlier

Dying Light 2’s new patch makes the night deadlier


Update 1.2.0 for Dying Light 2 has arrived, with a list of welcome fixes and new zombie games. In addition to addressing the stubborn “death loop” bug that plagued players like infected bites, the patch also made tweaks to the balance of the night game, the final boss fight, and the game’s accessibility settings.

First off, developer Techland says the annoying death loop bug that shunts players into a never-ending loop of respawning and dying outside of mission-critical areas has finally been fixed. This will be a relief for players who find their progress hampered by this issue.

The patch also makes some important tweaks to how Villedor nighttime works. Growlers, creepy guys who will launch a chase when they spot you, their detection range has increased, they are now more resistant to ranged weapons – so it will be harder to get them out from above to clear a safe path Street.

Once the chase begins, you’ll find that the volatiles emerge from their hiding places faster, and the fourth level of each chase is more challenging. If you found night to be a piece of cake compared to the original Dying Light, Techland has taken things up a few notches.

The studio has also made improvements to melee combat, which should be immediately noticeable. Blunt weapons now have a better sense of weight, and enemy responses have been tweaked to help convey this. Human opponents take less time to react to taps, and they’re also able to block your attacks during this reaction window – no longer seems to be easily stunned. However, enemies will now properly get stuck on spikes.

Teams make biting more biting: they’ll grab you more often, which Techland says “diversifies enemy encounters.” We think it’s an expression.

The patch also adds a dedicated tab for accessibility options, so it should be easier to find and enable these options from now on.

The patch is out now, and if you want to see what’s new, you can read the full list of PC patch notes on Steam.
