Nicht nur Serious Sam 4 hat heute auf dem PC Modding-Support bekommen. Zur Feier von 20 Jahren Serious Sam hat Croteam zusätzlich ein Update zu Serious Sam 2 aus dem Jahr 2005 veröffentlicht (siehe Steam). Update 2.90 wurde von Nathan Brown (Modder von Serious Sam 2 und langjähriges Croteam-Mitglied) erstellt und bietet eine Reihe von Verbesserungen im Spielablauf sowie zwölf bisher unveröffentlichte Multiplayer-Maps – so der Hersteller.
Neu dabei sind u.a. „Dual-Wielding, Enemy Multiplier und neue Waffen“. Für die Original-Xbox dürfte das Update vermutlich nicht mehr veröffentlicht werden. Hier das komplette Changelog für den PC:
„Serious Sam 2 Update 2.90 Changelog
What’s new:
– Sam can now wield a brand new weapon called the BeamGun (aka The Ghost Buster from the original Serious Sam design document)
– Enemy multiplier option is now available in singleplayer and co-op. Go, create your own Legion System in Serious Sam 2.
– Duke it out on 12 previously unreleased multiplayer maps, coming to you straight from the dusty basement at Croteam HQ. Those include Yodeller, Stadium, Hole, Desert Temple, and more.
– A brand new Flame-Thrower weapon is now available to all you modders out there, and so is the napalm item, so you can feed it.
– Sam finally learned to dual wield all of his toys. That’s pretty cool if I do say so myself.
– You know what else is cool? The ability to sprint. Well, Sam can do that now, too.
– He can also Rocket Jump, just like in the classics.
– Get lost no more with the brand new Enemy, NPC, and Objective radar.

Weil die Changelog auch überdeutlich danach schreit, ohne jegliche Ironie ernstgenommen zu werden
Hätte nicht gedacht dass sich Croteam noch um Serious Sam 2 kümmern würde. Croteam tut doch immer so, als hätte es diesen Teil nie gegeben^^...
"Get lost no more with the brand new Enemy, NPC, and Objective radar."
Ist bei einem derart linearen Spiel doch wohl ein schlechter Scherz.
lol ok ^^
