Just when you thought we were going to run out of steam on the unstoppable Rocketmen steamroller, we’re back. I’m told that the new 2.01 patch has gone live with Sony America today, and so is currently live on both PSN and XBL.
The big change is to the demo, which has turned from something frankly lackluster into something actually fun. The old demo had you puttering around on training wheels in level 1. The new demo drops you into level 4 with some major buffs. We thought it was only fair, since “buff” is the way you’ll be playing through almost the entire game once you start spending your ducats to improve stats, weapons, armor, etc.
Protip: Another neat “is it a feature, or a bug we decided to leave in?” thing about the new demo is that if you play through it multiple times, you keep the stats and keep racking up money to unlock better and better gear. You can’t save it so don’t turn off the system in between attempts, but it’s a fun way to check out some advanced powerups from within the demo itself.

Lost Planet PS3 is getting a patch! They’re updating the networking code to “optimize your online experience” (insert mysterious gong sound here). Anyway it sounds like good news to me!
The patch is set for immediate release and is currently being rolled out on PS3s everywhere.

On August 31 (Friday), we will be conducting an extensive network update on Lost Planet (Xbox 360)! With this update, players will be able to select from 3 different connection types when they create a mission. By allowing the player to select the most suitable connection type for their environment, the game’s connectivity could be improved for the players who used to have problems.
There are 3 connection types. Choose the one that matches you best!
[Default]
This is the standard setting regardless of upload speed.
[Pattern A]
This is more suitable when your upload speed is fast.
Try this if your connection is unstable with Default.
[Pattern B]
This is more suitable when your upload speed is slow and your connection is not stable with Default.
Try this if your connection is unstable with Default.
More discussion and some additional details can be found here!
