Those of you who have patched today and loaded up your single player campaign may have noticed some odd wargear. If you were playing the DOW II campaign on version 1.9 or earlier and reloaded your campaign after patching today, you will find that the Mission Rewards for Deployments that existed at the time you saved will now have bizarre, alien, or broken wargear. Yes, this is a bug and we are working on a fix for it.
If this has happened to you, you can safely continue playing. Your save game is NOT corrupted, and all missions that spawn from this point on will have correct wargear. You will, however, miss out on the reward that would otherwise have been granted for completing the mission.
No mission reward is required to complete the game. Most are basic weapons/armor, however the following missions have unique rewards:
• A Spider Among Flies
• The Defense Of Argus Gate
• Eyes Of The Eldar
• The Killer Serpent
• Into The Hive
• Rippa Splitta
• Raid Against The Warboss
• The Wailing Doom
If you miss the reward from one of these 8 missions, it will be added back into your inventory when the fix is completed in the coming weeks.
So to recap: It's safe to continue playing! Only missions that existed at the time you saved before the patch have messed-up rewards, all missions you unlock from here on out will be fine, and when we patch the fix we will replace the unique rewards from the above 8 missions.
Sorry for the oddness, enjoy your funky Tyranid arms in the meantime.
