Warhawk 1.1 patch ready for download

by Justin McElroy { Nov 2nd 2007 at 5:25PM }

If you've been looking for a good excuse to go back to Warhawk, you may have one today, as our dear friends at PS3 Fanboy are reporting that the 1.1 patch for the game is available now. In case you've forgotten since we last talked about it, the patch is largely under-the-hood fixes to improve performance. (We've put the full list after the jump.)

As a reminder, as of today you'll also want to be on the lookout for "Arbiters," a crack team charged with infiltrating games and snuffing out shenanigans. They'll be keeping an eye peeled for cheating (which we bet will make them a fairly easy kill.)

Server-side

Stat database stability improvements
Improved server stability
Max Clan limit changed from 32 to 64
Viral Rank-up bug fixed and correct for players that were accidentally ranked up.
"Time-in-Vehicle" Stats fixed so certain awards can now be granted properly.

Client-side (this is the one that you will actually download to your PS3)

Stat connection, fetch/post fixes
Significantly improved client connection stability
Quad "????" Ping display bug fixed.
Added support for Player-Ranked Servers.
Game synchronization fixes due to fluctuating network conditions (packet-drop).
Crash fixes for end of game and split screen.

Yes! Downloading now. These issues were the only thing that made an excellent gaming experience occasionally frustrating.

Player Ranked Servers FTW! No more fighting for the trophy servers. Just start a game, friends grab controllers as well, and bammo, instant war AND you can gain ranking from it. Best aspect of Warhawk was the least rewarded. That changes NOW.

what do u mean a good excuse to go back to Warhawk...this is the only game that i play almost every night. The game is a lot of fun for those who don't know...A LOT OF FUN

Jack @ Nov 2nd 2007 6:00PM

I rented it and it seemed pretty fun. Just too many assholes to be on a headset.

NATO_Duke @ Nov 2nd 2007 5:51PM

Did I seriously just read this post? Dude, go to hell.

I don't really follow your god. I follow the path of the lighted ones. These tiny poisonous fairies that live in light bulbs and bring light to my darkened existance. Of course these dieties are temporary in nature as I'm always buying more guys from the hardware section of Meijer but hey, whatever works.

Please die.

TrigunX, you too shall go to hell as you have angered the gaming gods with your mention of your own foolish god whom looks upon lying with ire.

God I hate spammers...The bastard's probably making his way around to every blog site with that same message.

Draco Basileus @ Nov 2nd 2007 6:45PM

How about fixing the flight controls by, oh I don't know, making it so the right analog stick controls throttle just like every other decent flying game out there! Game's awesome, but if they fixed that I'd be in hog heaven.

Oh, and TrigunX, go to Hell

Jokes on you come judgement day.

God Fucking Damnit.

You know, if we wanted to be judged by those pretending to be followers of Christ, we would just hang out at your incredibly lame and bible quoting website. See, the idea here is that we read Joystiq because we love games, and most certainly not because we wanted to be preached at by a bunch of self-righteous assholes (we get enough of that from Frocker). So please, round up your home schooled kids and crawl back into your hole.

JerJerBinks @ Nov 2nd 2007 7:05PM

So much for that being a reply. >:[

I can haz DDoS?

Nightvortez @ Nov 2nd 2007 8:35PM

I bought the game when it first came out and this is the first time I can actually play it (I know, should have rented), too bad I'm so horrible at it now it's not even funny. It really should have single player bot games for practice.

red_cobra @ Nov 2nd 2007 9:01PM

jerjerbinks, watch the language man. The guy is definitely a spammer, but let's at least try to keep the boards clean!

JerJerBinks @ Nov 2nd 2007 9:38PM

Yeah, sorry about that. I will say 20 extra Hail Marys and Our Fathers at mass on Sunday.

Sakesaru @ Nov 2nd 2007 10:23PM

"Matthew 7:1-5 Judge not, that you be not judged. For with the judgment you judge, you shall be judged: and with what measure you mete, it shall be measured unto you. And why behold you the mote that is in your brother's eye, but consider not the beam that is in your own eye? Or how will you say to your brother, Let me cast out the mote out of your eye; and lo, the beam is in your own eye? You hypocrite, first cast out the beam out of your own eye; and then shall you see clearly to cast out the mote out of your brother's eye."

You fail.

this update didnt do anything for me. i still cant play the game and i get more ???? now then i did before the update. i dont know if its the game or my connection because i can play Resistance online fine but Warhawk wont let me into any games at all. ill try it again later but im not getting my hopes up nemore.

only other complaint i have about this game is the weapon switching. its so awkward. why not have an option to use the unused R2 and L2 buttons for weapon switching, well at least on foot.

Is your router a Linksys WRT54G?

If so disable UPnP on both your router and your PS3. It should fix it, for some reason the PS3 has problems with these routers.

If its not that, maybe its your signal strength if you are using wireless. Again thats a router problems and is related to data transfer rates.

Buy Buffalo routers.
