Dying Light 2 update 1.4.2 patch notes: Fast Travel, co-op crashing fixed

Dying Light 2’s July 5 hotfix addresses some of the game’s biggest bugs and cleans up a little bit of the mess that showed up with the arrival of the previous update’s new story content. 

It’s not quite as big of an overhaul this week for Dying Light 2 but the changes that we got should have an oversized impact.

Whether you’re looking to zip around The City without fear of the travel system breaking or if you’re just trying to squeeze in a little bit of heart-pumping action with a friend, this update should make things far more pleasant than they were before.

Dying Light 2’s newest update brings a more stable experience and gets a few users out of sticky situations.

The headlining act for this set of notes is the fix to fast-traveling while inside The City.

Previously the option would be completely unavailable even when players weren’t actively involved in a quest or locked-in for any other reason.

There have been other problems with Fast Travel but this was by far the most impactful one, as players were getting stranded in areas that should have been a breeze to get out of.

Stability was the next big focus and Techland delivered a number of improvements in that regard.

Co-op games should no longer go down after using the Stab Follow-up skill that lets player chain together quick kills with their knives, and the overall game stability was boosted up, reducing the chance of random errors and crashes as well.
