UNREAL CHAMPIONSHIP UPDATE NOW AVAILABLE

Log on to Xbox Live and download a patch for the multiplayer shooter

13:34 Unreal Championship developer Digital Extremes has released an update for its Xbox multiplayer shooter. The update patch, which fixes certain exploits found in the game, disables anti-aliasing by default and makes other adjustments, is downloaded automatically when you log on to Xbox Live to play the title online.

Here's what the update patch addresses:

* The T.A.G. Rifle exploit
* The Rocket Launcher exploit
* All known map exploits
* The auto-aim exploit
* The novice bot, stats exploit
* The message: "No AA" now denotes a server that has auto-aim disabled
* The 'ghost-flag' exploit, in CTF matches
* Joining full servers: UC now checks if there is room in the game... before loading the map
* Resolved an occasional crash when joining a friend's match
* Resolved issues with Max Players and Private Slots
* Players will now receive one point of damage when impeding lifts
* The translocator disc will return to the gun, if it impedes a lift
* Players can no longer utilize the translocator, to pass through world geometry
* Anti-aliasing is now disabled by default. To enable it, depress both thumbsticks simultaneously during the initial UC intro video sequence
* Team-balancing fixed. The message "Teams Unbalanced", will show up briefly during an existing match, if the teams become unbalanced

Digital Extremes has stated the first downloadable extra content for Unreal Championship will appear shortly after the release of this patch update - so soon.
