Title: BioShock DLC details
Post by: demi on November 30, 2007, 06:53:55 PM
Publisher 2K Games sends word that a few BioShock patches will be released next week, in addition to a free downloadable content pack for the hit game.

2K community manager Elizabeth Tobey tells Shacknews that the DLC will at least include extra plasmids for players to mess around with, a way to disable Vita-Chambers for hardcore play, and bug fixes.

The patches will also address the game's field-of-vision perspective, following an intense bout of controversy over the way BioShock handles its widescreen display.

A title update to the Xbox 360 version will be released alongside the DLC, while the PC patch will come bundled with the content. Expect a patch list to be posted on The Cult of Rapture website when the downloads go live.


Should reveal what that new 100 point achievement is

Weird, didn't Ken or whoever said that it's their vision of playing the game...etc...and that's it ain't a problem?

um, how will "disable vita-chamber" work? is it just the same thing except the areas are reset instead of being preserved like they are now, or do you constantly have to keep saving? cause that sounds like a pain in the ass on the 360 with no quicksave.. i guess it'd be easy though if you only focus on survival and getting through the game rather than collecting everything
