Rebellion, developer of imminent FPS Aliens vs Predator, has issued a statement regarding problems with yesterday’s Aliens vs Predator multiplayer demo.
“Unprecedented demand for Aliens vs. Predator following the release of the cross-platform demo yesterday morning brought to light matchmaking issues on the PC platform resulting in players having to wait to join games, or even not find games at all,” read the Rebellion statement.
“We’re pleased to say later in the day the issue was corrected and a small patch to the PC executable next time you launch it from Steam will have you finding and playing games using Quick Match as it was intended.”
Rebellion added that the Xbox 360 version was not affected, but is “investigating reports of a similar nature on the PlayStation 3 and working flat out on a solution”.
The statement concluded: “We’re really sorry that this issue tainted a day in which we saw many people get hands on with AvP for the first time and we’re hugely gratified by the positive feedback to the game.”
Aliens vs Predator is scheduled for release on February 19 for Xbox 360, PS3 and PC.
