Vegas 2 Title Update Now Available

[x3sphere]

According to a Ubisoft community developer, a new title update for the Xbox 360 version of Rainbow Six Vegas 2 is now available. The much-needed update includes a number of optimizations, gameplay tweaks, and of course bug fixes.

Notable improvements include faster weapon switching, quicker spawn rates, and players now spawn at random points on the map in Team Deathmatch mode so as to avoid spawn camping. The full list of changes made in the update can be found after the jump.

Note that the update is available only to Xbox 360 owners of the game. A patch for the PS3 version with the same game tweaks is expected at a later date.
