Sniper’s back on the menu, but maybe not as ubiquitously, with a new hotfix for Space Marine 2, released ahead of Patch 11.
Space Marine 2 has a new hotfix out. Hotfix 10.2 brings a few much needed updates, including one that was planned for a later patch. But it puts Sniper back on the menu (in a good way) with an updated camo cloak cost, so you can’t infinitely cloak-cancel your way to the Golden Throne. But it’s a tool you can use! Also, Chainswords get a buff.
Space Marine 2 – Hotfix 10.2
Hotfix 10.2 is live now, bringing Space Marine 2‘s new updates to all platforms. As of press time, you likely have auto-downloaded the updated, or it’s waiting in your queue. Either way, there are two big updates that are worth noting. The first is a much-anticipated change to the sniper’s camo cloak ability.
“The first three uses of Camo Cloak in a row do not take away energy by themselves (the ability consumes energy, as before). The fourth activation takes away 5% of energy instantly, each subsequent one takes away a little more. After the last use, there is a 10-second timer, after which the activation cost again becomes zero.”

Of course, with the right build set up, you’ll still be able to pull off several cloak-cancels in a row. You just won’t be able to stay constantly invincible/invulnerable.
Alongside the sniper center, the other big change is to Chainswords. Their base stats have been rebalanced, and their main perk has been reworked so that now a light-heavy-heavy combo now ends with a big Stomp attack. Also heavy attack damage has been increased overall.
There are a few other changes as well. Just minor tweaks, given that it’s a hotfix. The upcoming Patch 11.0 will add a ton more. But know that if you’ve been plagued with Chaos spawns, their numbers have been brought down to be more in line with Tyranid warriors.
You can find a full list of the patch notes here. In the meantime, the endless battle awaits. After all in the grim darkness of the distant future, there is only war. And the occasional hotfix.
Patch 11 is coming soon too!
