Update 1.12 reverses a year worth of balance change patches

Update 1.12 seems to have unintentionally reversed all the patches from the past year as all weapons and weapon mods have the stats from before March. Does anyone know if this is permanent or will they fix the servers to reinstall the last several patches?

    Hi @gdorn

    Thanks for reporting this! The recent Xbox One X patch for Mass Effect Andromeda brought graphical enhancements to 4k version. As far as I am aware, no changes to the gameplay were introduced. I've checked this in my game and haven't noticed any changes to weapons or their mods.

    I'll consult this with our specialists, but I cannot promise an immediate answer from them. I will update this thread once I get any update.

    It's not just me, Many other players (everyone I've been in game with) sees the same: all weapons and mods have the stats from a year ago. All changes since are rolled back.Check your numbers again.

    Example :

    The paw has damage 90 which in the nov  7, 2017 update. It had mag. capacity 37 at that point.

    It should be mag. size 60 and damage 127 as of the Mar. 20, 2018 update

    I could list more, but everything listed on http://blog.bioware.com/mass-effect-andromeda-multiplayer-updates/ is back to nov 7th 2017 values

    @gdorn is correct. A lot of the server side balance changes have definitely been overridden by the 1.12 update.

    Did you recheck the numbers or hear when we can expect a fix?
  • So, are the changes to stats being reported here all in the multi-player game?

  • lol.. still no reply and we are supposed to be reliant on the updates in Anthem to make it better. smh.

  • Was this for multiplayer only? Also, is anyone really expecting EA to allow more time to be spent on ME:A at this point?

    It's possible, not plausible. But, we can only hope they show the game a little more love eventually. I was just pointing out it's a bit ironic we are supposed to be reliant on their Anthem updates to see what the game really is about. But yet their last game they just stopped updating and then apparently reversed all updates. Just sayin. But, yes, at this point I'd rather them focus on Anthem.

  • Yeah, I get ya. I'm not actively seeking info on Anthem, but the things I've seen I get the feeling EA is making a lot of past mistakes from their other games on that.
